I was leaving Florida to head back to Tulsa for Thanksgiving, and maybe stick around through Christmas. Well, I did stay around for Christmas - and New Years - and Valentine's Day, Easter, St Patrick's Day, April Fools, etc...
You see, when I came back from Iraq I was going to buy a franchise. After re-evaluating what I want out of my life, I decided the franchise was not the way to go. I had given them a deposit on my territories and that money was refundable. To make a long story short, I have not received that money back yet. Hence my reason for being in Oklahoma for so long.
Still no money yet, but I AM back in Florida now. On the boat. Adventures to come. Stay tuned...
BTW, I don't regret the time in Oklahoma. I did get to spend a lot of time with family and good friends - something that I haven't been able to do in a long time. So all of you people back in the middle of the country, it's your turn to come see me!
