This is the fabled Manchineel Tree. A day of idle googling led me to the worlds’ most dangerous tree. The bark, sap, leaves, and fruit (which resemble apples) are all very toxic, if burned the smoke can even cause blindness. Life is full of little surprises isn’t it?

So the trip to Virginia was incredible, I came back and was mentally refreshed. Physically I was exhausted and could not wait till the weekend where I could hibernate in a warmer than sub arctic bedroom, on a bed with actual support, and wake up at a time of my own choosing. Those things aside i can’t wait to see my family again! As soon as I get some really good pictures I will post them, I was looking a little snazzy in my shirt and tie.
I’ve recently also come back into contact with a good friend I’ve known for a number of years. He lives in New York and appears to be doing very well. If he’s reading this he knows who he is, and if you don’t know who he is, then just envision my eclectic group of friends and add one more to that visual.
My life seems to be coming into a revival cycle, where doors are opening for me adding interest and vitality to my life. I’m eating better, and as soon as our company gym opens up again I will be going back to my after-work routine to try and get ready for next spring/summer. I’m also starting to get more social, if you know me you might notice that i go through phases of beng incredibly social and being a loner.
This normally also signals a return to the dating world which is occuring so wish me luck. Hopefully I will not end up left tied to a bedpost, slathered in warm windez, with a zipper mask, I mean what are the chances that would happen 4 times in a row right?
