Vacation, all I ever wanted. We're in Florida
right now. My kids, husband, in-laws, best friend and her kids
are all somewhere on the Disney property. I'm somewhere on the
Marriott property. Alllll alone! Just me, endless VH1
countdown programing, a big box of jewelry making supplies and a case
of Coke Zero. Life is good. And quiet.
I did the Washington Post crossword puzzle. I played solitare
with actual cards. I made a bracelet for a friend, earrings for
myself, and started another necklace for a different friend. I
went for a walk in the sunshine around the creepily sterile
property. It always unsettles me when the plant life is
alien. Everything is green here, of course, b/c Walt Disney
outlawed the icky seasons and their unpredictable changes. All
the palm trees have OTHER plants growing on their trunks.
Epiphytes, or air plants,are just stacked up on them. We sold
those damn things by the truckload at the Sea Shell Shop so long
ago. I could pluck off all I could cart. Not that I would,
because they're kinda ugly. Also all these ferns growing out of
the trees. It's odd. It's unnatural. It is not the
way of the Mid-Atlantic plants and, therefore, to be feared.
Tomorrow, I go to visit heretofore imaginary friends! Hi Claire, Karen, and Amy!
Once upon a time, a blog was started at AOL Journals. The scales fell from the eyes of The Creator and it was moved to Wordpress. Then Journals tanked and all old posts were moved here for safekeeping.
