Fun times at Open Sores April 30, 2008
I haven’t really said anything about Ocean Shores, but we had a really good time there. The weather was great - windy, but sunny so we didn’t care. On our way there we stopped for lunch at our classy state capital and on the bathroom door was this sticker:
We were wondering what kind of apparatus was involved. I was too scared to go in and find out. When we got to our hotel we immediately went down to the beach and had some fun:
I thought I might frame this picture and hang it in my living room.
Later that night Charlie and I went out to a nice dinner, which didn’t go so well for me. I asked what vegetables were in the Pasta Primavera and the waitress did not know, but told me it was VERY good so against my better judgement I ordered it. First problem: there were tomatoes in it. I HATE tomatoes - I think they and all related products are inherently evil and I will not eat anything evil. I’m strong like that. The second problem? The “pesto cream” sauce was really just a TON of olive oil. Icky. I should have ordered the steak like Chuckles did. Anyway when we got back to the room Chuckles poured me a glass of wine to drink while we watched the Awesome movie Bottle Rocket.
Since it was filled to the brim I couldn’t lift it without spilling…so this is what happened:
To conclude: Fun trip.
On another note, I got a manicure on my way home from work today (because I have my priorities straight) and they always have a way of insulting me. Usually it’s my eyebrows: Your eyebrows are very bushy - should we wax them? But today was a new one: You have very hairy arms - let me wax your arms. I said no…and made a note to wear long sleeves next time I get a manicure.





Tomatoes are the worst. Except ketchup. Ketchup is in fact the bomb.
The Koala sticker means that there is a baby changing table inside the bathroom. Men’s rooms have them too which I think is a sign that our second wave feminist mothers did a good job getting men to change diapers!
Yey moms!
ha. boobies. that is some funny shit there. and the wine? you might as well just drank it straight from the bottle : )
rs27 - No, you are wrong. Ketchup is almost worse than tomatoes.
Kristen - I imagine changing tables are required for changing stations…but what is required at baby hanging stations? I was imagining little nooses. That’s a horrible thought.
Alexa - Boobies is a funny word. I once tried drinking wine straight from the bottle and I just spilled it all over myself. I’ll never do it again because I hate wasting wine.
Can I have a copy of that picture? Please???
Also, you are funny and that is good.
I loved the boobies thing. I would totally hang that in my living room. : )
If you have a Wii and it is connected to the internet we could play Mario Kart together. God I am such a dork.
Apollo - Of course you can have a copy - I will email it to you. You’re going to hang it somewhere right?
Heather - If you’re a dork than I am a HUGE dork because that sounds Awesome to me. Unfortunately, I don’t own my own wii. My parents bought one as a bribe to get me to visit more. And it Works! They promised to buy Mario Kart if my visits doubled.
