Carlton has laryngitis – Carlton loves to talk – Carlton’s “work” involves nonstop talking. This is not pretty. I just stuff my ears into my iPod and refuse to listen to him rasp about not being able to talk.
This might be my year for the Round the World trip… I did it when I was in my 20’s. For less than $3,000. I am guessing that a do over will cost more. Carlton will be invited. Goodness knows, the man NEEDS some new stories to tell. Wrong, his friends NEED for him to have new stories to tell. If a 17 year old girl could live by my travel rules, surely a 77 year old man can as well. And, if he doesn’t want to come. OK. I am not going to wait until he dies to start spending the money.
I have a friend, her late husband was excessively frugal (like Carlton) and she says she wants to live long enough to spend the money that her husband wouldn’t. Her husband used to sit on our deck here at the hotel and “harumph” about the gray haired tourists ladies that would get off the cruise ship complaining that they were “spending their dead husband’s money”.
A gaggle of noisy Christians were busy baptising each other in the ocean today. I felt it would be unpagan of me to wish a swarm of jellyfish on them.
Peg….I’ll go with you if Carlton won’t go. Greg (my sig other) remarks that I use so much toilet paper. He can use four squares only. Wow…I hadn’t heard that one before.
