So, I’m off cruising the in Caribbean this week with my best friend, Shay, and my parents. I’m really looking forward to lounging poolside, sipping fancy, fruity frozen cocktails, and not having to worry about anything other than “do I have enough time to get something to eat before we go to dinner?” That’s the thing I love about cruises. They take all the things I love–food, swimming, shows, food, alcohol, tanning, boys, and food–and package them up in a pretty little boat for me to indulge in.
Shay and I had a great time last year, even though she almost had a heart attack and died whilst scuba diving in St. Thomas. So this year, we’re going to see how she does up in the air instead of under the water, as we’re going parasailing in Key West. I think she’ll be ok. I haven’t done it since I was really young, so who knows how I’ll do… heights aren’t exactly my favorite. But I’m a thrill seeker (to some extent), and I’ll have my brave face on for Shay, so I think it’ll be fun.
This week’s quote comes from one of my favorite celebrities, and I think she pretty much sums up my philosophy on life with the following quote:
“My weaknesses have always been food and men – in that order.”
–Dolly Parton
