                      surprisingly enough i slowed down quite a bit. i work lots so i can travel.im almost 37 & i don't even think about 40 coming,i see 50 13 years away so i'm globetrotting & entertaining myself.i have been addicted to sleazing out in cuba.i make any fantasy of mine reality...should have been doing this my whole career.my 20's were a complete waste of time & money.
