Yup, I did it, my blog proposal for "Life Afloat" - everyday life in Annapolis, seen through liveaboard eyes - got accepted this afternoon. OMG! What have I gotten myself into?
But I've got so many stories I want to tell - about how having guests makes me see Annapolis thru "new eyes;" about how going into town by dinghy and not having to worry about parking changes everything; about wanting to stay home and alphabetize my spices while Dan wanted to go sailing ISN'T contradictory; about needing two uses for everything before bringing it aboard (except the pineapple corer); about inviting Eric and Carleen over for dinner and bringing dinner to them anchored in front of their condo; about the community of liveaboards and Ellen's incredulous question "You KNOW your neighbors?"; about the awful thud when J&E's South Pacific charts were thrown out the window as we cleaned out their storage unit.
Terrified and excited - I've either agreed to deliver a boat from somewhere I've never been, to somewhere I've never been; or to sail unknown waters of the mind in some experience.
Just thought of another one - he who dies with the most toys wins. Or is it friends? Or experiences?
And another - dinghy rides to the kid at the Fleet Club.
