What a long time it has been since I last posted on my 5-star blog. I want to thank the one and only Miamista for the public shaming that is the impetus for me remusing on Miami. The problem is that I have left the sands of Miami Beach, driven through the mountains and prairies and to the Pacific Ocean (which, surprisingly, is white with foam). So now I am forced to ask the question, Can I still have Miami Musings when I no longer live in Miami?

If anything I think that I have enough material for a good amount of entries on living in South Beach and working in Overtown. In some ways I am freer to blog on certain topics since I am no longer bound by employment and proximity. Since my last post a lot has happened besides the move:

• I have been put on the do not reply list by the man formerly known as most amazing bf



• I declared my love for a 22 year old Puerto Rican on the first date, only to be left hanging on Thanksgiving



• I hung out with the ex and the wife at a reunion dinner



• I had a great experience regarding, tequila, Jim Beam, an SUV, erratic driving, the Fort Worth Police Department, a rich bi-curious Chicano, and his bi-racial friend whose dad is now dating his best friend and roommate’s mother



• I listened to six Books on Tape



• I had the unsurprising revelation that two of visitors had slept together after meeting me, but before realizing they were both going to stay with me



• I got a $25,000 raise



• I lost 10 pounds



• I actually got good service at a non-Ian Schraeger owned establishment in the Miami metro area



• I am sure that there are many more experiences, and I can’t wait to share them with you!!

LET THE POSTING RESUME!!
