Hi There.

Welcome to my blog documenting my temporary stay in Sheboygan, Wisconsin. Please keep in mind that the target audience for this blog is my family and close friends. So, if you're wondering why I post pictures of food I have eaten or silly videos of me singing while driving, that's why.

Watch Out for the Rip Tide!

At 5am this morning, I suddenly woke up. I couldn’t get back to sleep. I typically never wake up that early on purpose.

I was having a strange allergic reaction to something. (This occasionally happens, but I haven’t been able to determine the trigger.) My legs were severely itchy. I decided to jog to get my mind off of it.

I jogged steady for about a mile, which was surprising considering all the time I took off from pretty much any form of exercise aside from leisurely walks. Maybe it was the itch. Either way, my body felt it later. It’s a good feeling – physical exhaustion for a legitimate reason.

  1. I was pulled out to sea in Morocco when I was a kid (Yeah I lived in the Sahara but the ocean was close too) I almost drowned. Some people think you can swim out of it, but you can't always fight it.
