I'm Back!

Has it been a week already? My, how time has flown. This crisply browned girl is back and almost ready to get her act together and start posting for you again. In the mean time, here are a few tidbits from my trip:

  1. Made 3 new fabulous friends from Columbus, one of whom is EWP's gay male twin. Seriously, we are the same person. I love him.
  2. Celebrated Mr. EWP's bday with aforementioned new bffs at a gay club, because clearly that's what he wanted to do for his birthday. He's a good sport. (PS totally best night ever)
  3. Every 3 blocks in Puerto Rico, no matter where you are on the island, you will find the following: Burger King, KFC, Taco Bell, and Walgreens. The Walgreens came in handy after my run in with a swarm of mosquitos while kayaking. (there are, no joke I'm not exaggerating, at least 25 ugly bites on my back and arms. I looked really hot walking around PR with calamine lotion all over my back)
  4. I had a love affair with my new camera resulting in over 500 pictures.
  5. I think I love my husband more now than before we went (I know, I'm a corny nerd, but it's true!)
  6. I did not take a single pair of heels with me. *gasp* *shock* *horror* I learned from my last two caribbean vacays a few months ago that heels+beach/boardwalk/islands in general = disaster. So they stayed behind. Which then made me panicked when I was going out with my new bffs to the gay club. Luckily they didn't judge me too much.
  7. Even on vacation, I had to make sure I was planted in front of the tv in our hotel room for the big news on J&K+8.
  8. Telling your hotel that it's your honeymoon leads to lots of fun goodies.
  9. No matter how tan my delusional husband believes he can get, if I declare it too sunny and sit under an umbrella, it's probably a good idea that he do the same. (poor, burnt, heat stroked Mr. EWP)
  10. It is highly embarassing valeting a crappy kia which doesn't even have automatic locks at the Ritz everyday. It never got less embarassing.

I had the best time, but I did miss all of you (even you secret readers who never post a comment. I know who you are and you better start earning your keep around here!)

xoxo,

EWP
