gasp

slowly crawling out into the sunshine of life

after a long week of work

after vacation


that's payback for you

plus size seatmate

very big 
with a big backpack 
oozing into my center seat 
the foot the elbow the arm and the jacket 
excuse me 
i am asian 
i really do not like 
to be in contact with a male 
who is not my husband 
please

goodbye massage


 


personalized to my sore points

with piped-in muzak

my little cocoon of 30-minute bliss

bauble




my frivolous totally juvenile final purchase before we fly back tomorrow morning. 

girl's got to have her luggage tags.

lost

HOM leaves his phone in the ride. this leaves us with a cold feeling in the heart.

by God's grace and thanks to the driver's kindness he has it back again.

what i say is, you are not losing a phone you are losing a wallet.

what i also say is, that cold feeling in the heart, it can get quite cold.

brrrr

rainy day out. hotel room a/c fixated on 19 degrees C. nursing a cough.

the best place to camp out in the room is on the heated toilet seat.
