Visitors from afar, or.. Miami rather

In less than 2 weeks Sean will arrive from a stay with friends in Miami. I am actually looking forward to seeing him for a few days. It's been nearly a year and a half since we've spoken much or seen one another for more than a few hours. I can enjoy his company without getting into the usual arguments that acccompany any 5 year relationship. I haven't seen him since Christmas where he gave me this laptop that often fails me. And haven't really spoken with him on the phone since last Thanksgiving Day when he called me and somehow managed to include in his Happy Thanksgiving Day wishes, that he didn't find me attractive and was disappointed when we first met. Ahh.. that really set the day off right all those months ago. Anyway.. I'll get to play host and show him around. I know he'll love the pool area and going out for a meal or two. He'll be doing quite a bit of work while he's here, so it'll feel normal. We'll have some downtime where we're both doing our own thing. It's not like I'll have to keep him constantly entertained.

Then.. shortly after he leaves - either a few hours or the next day, Brandon will turn up for a couple days. He's driving down from Atlanta and staying just over Memorial Day weekend. We'll do the same touristy things. Definitely looking forward to showing them the beach and some of the private docks around here I like to walk to.

Less than a month after Brandon goes.. my mom will be here helping me pack my things and returning to Arizona. And again.. the beach, the pool, and whatever else I can think up to occupy a few hours. I think my mom's hoping to run into Hulk Hogan after learning he and the family frequently eat at the same restaurant I do just across the street from the apartments here. It's kinda cute.. she's all star-struck. I hate to disappoint her, so if we shouldn't happen upon him, I may just point out one of the nicer cars in the restaurant's parking lot and tell her that's them. She'll never know the difference and it'll make a nice story. :D

I need to look into things to do around here aside from the obvious. My mom will be here I think either 4 or 5 days, so aside from having to do all the strenuous labor moving involves, I'd also like to set aside a day or two and treat her visit more as a vacation. She's never been to Florida and likely won't ever return, so it'd be nice to show her around as if she were on holiday.

Just as an aside: Living here alone sucks, but moving back to Flagstaff equally sucks. I'd like to think I'd move back here at some point in the future when I had a family. I'm sure I've said that in 15 other posts, but at least it's evident I really REALLY mean it.
