I can't help but ask myself how much I'll let the fear take the wheel and steer.

Just in case you were curious, yeah, it's still really freaking hot down here. I was lying on my towel for a good fifteen minutes before I was drenched in sweat.



The Dunedin Causeway! Leads straight to Honeymoon Island. Pee ess, taking pictures while driving is HARD. (That's what she said.)



Walking on the boardwalk to the sand.



Heh, chick reading a book. And sand! And a cigarette butt. And overcast-ness.



The Coastguard helicopter stops by for a hello.







Um, I have no idea what that thing is. I think they were disassembling a boardwalk thingy?



A nice little bench and some reeds.



The boardwalk leading back to my car.



Dragonfly! :D



And now I'm wonderfully BURRNT (you gotta say it like Jensen, BURRNT), so that should last me for a while, haha.

So, last week at work, this guy comes up to the counter and says, "Hmm, let me see what I have in my pockets to leave you guys for a tip." Guys, he pulls out a one hundred dollar bill and stuffs it in our tip jar. My jaw kind of hit the floor. That is insanity. I knew we were the freaking best store in the area, but damn. SO THEN, I get word today that yesterday he did it again! TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS IN TWO WEEKS. This guy is nuts. Plus he put in another $40 today! Can we say free drinks for the rest of his life? UH, YEAH. (For the record he gets a triple grande nonfat one hundred and eighty degrees no whip cinnamon dolce latte. Hee.)

I feel like having JUNKFOOD. I need to raid my fridge, kthxbi.

Beaches are so pretty, but I refuse to go into the water. I have my reasons.

WOW. That guy is insane. But, seriously, that is so cool!

[caithream.livejournal.com]

I'm guessing STING RAYS. We have them everywhere around here. Everyone from the age of four and up learns the sting ray shuffle whenever they go to the beach!

VERY cool, even though we still have to split it 11 ways, ahaha.

[killmotion.livejournal.com]

Nope. Jellyfish. Almost got stung by one once. And I don't trust the ocean.

But that's still, like, a $10 tip!

[caithream.livejournal.com]

Aw! We have veeery tiny jellyfish here, nothing big like what they have in the Atlantic. The ocean can be kind of freaky but I've literally grown up with it for the past twenty years, heh. Saltwater is good for your skin omg! ;D

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, but they are still creepy to me. And more so due to Finding Nemo. Squishy is evil. And is not mine. I've been to the ocean once. And I got sunsick. It was terrible.

[distantechoes.livejournal.com]

I now refer to it as the Steve Irwin Shuffle. D:
and then I cry inside.

[caithream.livejournal.com]

NOOOOOO STEEEVE. :(((( Saddest day in HISTORY.

[caithream.livejournal.com]

FIVE MILLION DEGREES OUT, BUT. Beach! :D

Ahaha, that's one of the reasons why I love my job, when I call out something like that and someone's like, "WHO WITH THE WHAT NOW?" HOORAY COFFEE.

[scary-lullabies.livejournal.com]

So that's the beach in your neck of the woods, wow. I don't think I've ever even seen pictures before.

OMG YEY TIPMEISTER!! That's so spiffy!

[caithream.livejournal.com]

Yep! This is one of the nicest beaches we have around. A lot of them are all filled with yuck and SUPER annoying tourists, blah.

SO MUCH SO. It pays mah billz!

[falterfrei.livejournal.com]

[caithream.livejournal.com]

*IS SO UP FOR SWITCHING* Omg mountains >>>>>> beaches, DUH. You crazy lady.

[idril-telrunya.livejournal.com]

HAHAHAHAHAHAH I LOVE THAT ICON SOOOOOOO MUCH! I almost stole it but then thought it would be weird for the two of us to have it...damn you and your QUICKNESS! I think I may just steal it anyway and use it because OMG YOU KNOW WE NEED TO MAKE ONE WHERE IT FLASHES TO THAT AND THEN TO YOUR PICTURE OVER MY HANDS AND SO OTP OR SOMETHING!!! y/y?

[caithream.livejournal.com]

AHAHAH OMG GO RIGHT AHEAD! I don't care, seriously!

[caithream.livejournal.com]

AHAHAHAHAHAH OH YEAH. ALjf;alskdjf;owaejfa. I'll see what I can come up with! *Dusts off Photoshop*

[skygazing.livejournal.com]

awwww...beach = jealous!me :-P
$100 tips = WOW so awesome!!! :D

[caithream.livejournal.com]

I would much rather take mountains over beaches, buuut, for the time being, it is quite nice. :D

SO VERY AWESOME. Good customers sometimes do outweigh the bad ones!

[distantechoes.livejournal.com]

O HAI HOME, LOL :D :D
I recognized it right away! And I wanna go witchoo!

That guy is amazing. I think if I was a frillionaire, I'd randomly tip my favorite places like that.

[caithream.livejournal.com]

OMG ME TOOO. That would be so much fun! CLEARLY THE PROBLEM HERE IS THE EXPANSE OF LAND BETWEEN US. I cry.

I KNOW RIGHT. Usually rich people aren't so generous! This is amazing.

[distantechoes.livejournal.com]

DAMN YOU, 120 MILES!!

Continuing comment from last post, I don't think Dani or I would mind at all having you as a permanent addition to our silly home. And helping pay our silly rent. Of course, I'm speaking for her at this point. But whatevers.
It would probably be more awkward for you to move up here, especially if credits got messed around and then I miraculously graduate on time and we leave but you still have to stay. And rocks fall, etc, etc. D:

But barring rediculousness like that, I think it would be funnns!

[caithream.livejournal.com]

OMG omg. You are seriously too generous. Um! It would be easy enough to talk to my advisor and see if I can send a transcript over to UCF, just to see where I would stand. If it's a HUGE difference I might have to reconsider, but who knows! It's worth a shot, right?

It WOULD be funs! I would just want to make sure you two would be super duper okay with it!

[distantechoes.livejournal.com]

I believe the general consensus was, "um. YEAH. :D"

Also, November 1 is Young Wild Things Tour at our UCF arena, which is Fall Out Boy, Gym Class Heroes, Plain White T's, and Cute Is What We Aim For.
In case you, you know, totally want to come!

[caithream.livejournal.com]

:DDDDDDDDDD!!!

Omg.

Ahaha I will probably be WORKING, but I'll see what I can do! :D!!

[heybritney.livejournal.com]

hahaha that guy with the tips has GOT to be ridiculous.
I would go to the beach but: it's northern california, and if you call that overcast... I can see a bit of blue sky, but it's in the opposite direction of the beach. and my dog is insane and 125 lbs and impossible to control. i'm too tired to deal with that today.

[mousewings.livejournal.com]

Your pictures make me miss the beach.

Wow at the excellent, generous tipper. Nuts... or maybe he won the lotto... and/or is a very giving person. You all must have given him great service and made an impression to brighten up his day. :)
