back with a quick update. not much to report really....just that i am going back to asheville this weekend to help with moving some more stuff back and forth. hoping to get on the town friday or sat nite. ought to be fun. weather here is really nice. we have had like 30 days now with no rain at least in tampa. the days are cloudless, nice way to spend march and february.

feelin ok. zoe bday was last weekend. had some flowers taken to her grave. still on my mind. saw this couple in publix tonite and i could relate to the mans had that same look on his face...lol. i recognize that.

im doing ok. actually had lunch with this woman last weekend. we might even do it again some time soon. good news. no sales yet this week, but we have like 3 apps tomorrow...so that will be a sale for sure...if not all 3 of them.

well gtg...love you all...rev. vernon.

go gators. thought i would honor the gators with the blue color. not much happening today...or this weekend. been doing well at work. yesterday i went to the mote aquarium down here in sarasota. i am thinking about volunteering for them. that would be way cool. i got an application and i am going to mail it tomorrow. they rehab injured turtles and dolphins and other sick or hurt marine animals. it ought to be very rewarding. be able to give back to mother earth and her inhabitats.

i am feeling fine. been back at the gym regularly now. i was out of there for the month of feb and a little in march. but i am going to this bigger one here in sarasota. they even have racketball courts. hoping to play some real soon. went out and met some new people this past weekend. ran into this lawyer and his wife at the shaners club. they are nice and he was even introducing me to other regulars at the bar.

think i am going to go up to asheville next weekend. do some more moving for the forbes. and it stands now me and shelly are going up and bringing some furniture back down here. i am hoping the weather is nice next weekend.

well much peace and love to all. rev.vernon.

hello world. well about my doctor visit. i know i should have been on here before. but here goes. my tcells only went up like20 points. but again i think this might be due to the 1 week on and 1 week off. which brings me to a point i would like to share. there was this huge trial to look at taking a treatment interruption like i am doing. well in january of this year it was called off due to the data. it showed that they do not work. well it is working for me. and my doc does not know i am doing it either. but huang started it in june of 2003. so some doctor told me to do it...or at least supported my choice. she actually brought it up. so i have been doing it. and i gave blood on a monday after i started meds on sunday. so i only had 2 days on meds when i gave blood. wonder what my tcells are at the end of the week. everything else was good. my liver counts were all normal or in range. i even had an ultra sound today on my liver. i get the results in june..

well i am doing well. i have had like 3 sales over this week and i have been averaging about 3 sales a week with the last 3 weeks or so. so i am doing well.

it is st.pats eve and i love this time of year. ya got ncaa basketball and all the excitement. me and zoe actually met this time of year. and her bday is on sunday. so i miss her some more this month. i still catch myself shedding some tears on occasion over losing her. but i am better. the hole in my heart is getting better. she will always be with me though. did i tell you all that there is this bronx avenue about 2 blocks from my new place in sarasota.

i talked to 1 ho last nite. it was a good talk. i do miss our chats. she sounded good. i hope to see her in june.

well i am off to do some dancing tonite. get busy livin....or get busy dying....i think i want to do some living tonite.

peace and love to all. capt.vernon.

it has been some time since i have been on here. so i am back. let's see i have been to asheville, nc and about killed myself snowboarding. lol. it was fun...but damn it hurt as well. i was on the bunny slope most of the nite until i went up the hill for 1 run down before ending my short career snowboarding. i fell like 3 times and then decided to carry my board down. i thought i might have broken my collar bone or something. my shoulder hurt like hell and still does. then while walking casually down the slope with my board, i fell on some ice. and about broke my arm. it has a nice gash in it. so i am done with that...just like softball. i have realized also that i am too old for softball and have officially hung up my cleats. it was a sad realization this past month. but life goes on. and i am definetly done with snowboarding. will maybe try skies next season up there.


i have opened up some new counties for the roofing company this past month as well. more up north by the fam up there. life is good...but still lonely. it is zoe bday this month and i am going to send some flowers to her grave. i miss her still. the wound is not that bad...but i still have my moments.

i now hangin out at seista beach. i live like 7 minutes away from there. will be dark when i go up north this summer.....

my health is ok. i see doc this week and will report back my labs....i swear i will this time.

much peace and love to all. capt. vernon.
