It’s 10:00 at night and of course I’m wide awake. The ten hour time change means my poor body is thinking it’s noon and time to get to work. No such luck.

Ray dropped me at the Holiday Inn in Chatumel at about 3:00 this morning, then took off like a bat out of hell. Apparently he wanted to be back on the island before people stirred this morning. I slept till about 8:00 and then made travel arrangements to fly from here to Mexico City and from there to Croatia.

Shite! I’m on the run again, in a car headed for the Mexican border with a guy I don’t completely trust. What’s next?

Taking off was like riding a rollercoaster, only not as much fun ( Read more... )

Did you ever have a dream in code? Last night I went back to The Condo and tried to figure out the last two digits for the hidden code, but I was so tired I fell asleep in front of the screen. All night long I dreamed long series of random numbers and letters. My head was apparently not satisfied with hexadecimal code. The dream included every ( Read more... )

Amazing what a good night’s sleep will do for you now and then. With The Condo secured, I removed all my make-up, showered, and slept. I had Davy make sure I was supplied with food and coffee before he left yesterday and I got my luggage up out of the Mustang. I checked in with the building management to be sure it was okay where I’d parked it and ( Read more... )

I spent the better part of the day yesterday establishing firm control of The Condo, starting with locking the patio and poolroom doors and extending to changing all the security codes from the entrance to the office door.
