God Hates ME! Or Is holding his sides Laughing…

I know there are people who would say that God isn’t so much into hate…

Ok, so maybe God doesn’t hate me… But God sure is having a great time laughing.

Here’s the situation…

In the past month I’ve had a firm invitation to go to Paris. This trip would have been almost 2 weeks long, and only cost airfare and food. The person that invited me has an apartment available. I had to turn it down

Within a day, I was notified of an opportunity to go on a dive trip to Utila on a live aboard. That’s a big assed boat where you get to dive, eat, drink, relax, and be pampered. I had to turn it down.

Two weeks later… There was another cancelation on the same boat… I had to turn it down.

Today… I got a notification about an opening with another group diving Utila. I have to turn it down.

Every Single one of these trips is scheduled right around the last week of March.

ARRRRRGGGGGHHHH!

I haven’t been diving in two years! And I LOVE Caribbean waters.

So There have been 4 opportunities ALL for the same time period. If I were superstitious, I’d say someone is trying to get me out of California at the end of March…

OR God is laughing his ass off watching me lose my mind…

UPDATE

As of this morning there is yet another slot open on one of the dive trips.

The reason that I’m turning these trips down is because I don’t feel that it would be an appropriate use of my cash right now.

Unemployment has a way of making you think about how you’re going to spend your cash.

There is a part of me that says “Screw it! Take a vacation, it’s cheap and you know damn well that when you go back to work you’re not going to see any vacation for at least a year.”

It’s the story of my life… When I have the time for a vacation.. I don’t have the money.

Who knows…

The irresponsible part of me my yet win this battle. My resolve to do the right thing is weakening by the moment.
