Itinerary for Maui (Which Is Where I Am)

Coming to you from the cheapest hotel on all of Maui — good-sized room, kind of dark everywhere, and it smells like Herb the barber (he cut my hair when I was a kid). I’m guessing this didn’t used to be a non-smoking room. And given that I’m on Maui, I’m forced to wonder whether I am, in fact, nearly dead. Or perhaps was secretly married to someone without my knowledge. Possibly both.

Here’s a picture of me, in the room, nailing down my plans for the next eight days:

I feel like I have to put a photo in every post now what with this new “magazine-style” theme I’m rocking.

Check In
Go to Wal-Mart (or similar)

That’s it. I should probably include days/meals for the three or four restaurants that were recommended to me by my insider. Next draft.
