In Need of a Vacation

I'm hungover. Not just from last night (although that would be true too), but from vacation. I'm on a vacation hangover. I was in Aruba for 10 days. If you've never been there allow me to sum it up for you: Sun, breeze, drinks, water, girls, no computers/cell phones, food. Lots of food. Obviously, that doesn't really do the island justice, but I don't suspect I could relay how tremendous said island is in words. So go there.
Now I'm back in Northern Virginia, sitting at a computer in a dark room in the friendly confines of America Online's main campus (although there are no co-eds, keg parties, or people playing hacky sack on the qaud). The chemicals in my noggin are making me feel like I'm from Montreal (but really from Georgia). I guess it's clear that I want to go back to doing absolutely nothing. I want to go back to Aruba.
But alas, I'm here. And at least here I have American sports instead of soccer and Indy racing 24/7. I guess I didn't miss much while I was gone. Sam Perlozzo was fired, but that was a matter of time. Lavar Arrington crashed his bike, but I suppose that was equally as inevitable. What else? Derek Lee and Chris Young beat the sh*t out of the air (even the Dutch are interested in a bad fight, so I saw that one on repeat).
I reckons that's about it. So, I'm back. Exciting, I know. And no, I did not find Natalie Holloway, and if you thought about making that joke kill yourself now because you are not original nor funny. I'm in a good mood. And hungover.

No,
It was a dive bar called Charlies down by the old Exxon plant. It was popular a while ago but the island has been built up so maybe nobody goes anymore. -
Natural Bridge collapsed over a year ago, but I did see the ruins (and saw it intact last time we were in Aruba). And Carlos 'n' Charlies is the super-sweet bar you're referring too. Douche bags galore.

did you go to the natural bridge or that town with the bar called Charlies which is basically the hood in aruba?
