People of Desert Shores

I find this fascinating. There have been some interesting people I have met thus far. I will continue to document as I find it funny the different walks of life these people come from.

So, here goes:

Pat and Cecile from Kansas City:
they are two females who are vacationing. Pat is a retired bank and Cecile... I haven't a clue.... They rely on me to push the hot tub button for jets. They are busy bodies and want to know all the details of my life. So far, they know my occupation, my relationship status, how many kids I belong to and what sort of TV shows I enjoy. They also know I hate crickets.

Flying Ray:
we are 9:30 hot tub buddies. He is a retired ski patrol dude from Aspen. He owns a place out in Colorado and also a condo here In phoenix. He likes to fly model air planes. He has a lady friend visiting him here and enjoys talking about the weather and converse shoes.

Sonny from Israel:
he rents out a place here in the complex. He asks how I get my eyes so shiny. He has asked three times. I ask him every time if this is a pick up line. He works at the mall selling skin stuff in those kiosks. I don't care for him much.

Granny A and B:
these lovely gals invited me up for coffee and cake. Since ion my no sugar diet I declined. I really want coffee and cake now. They play cards on the desk from 4:30-7:00. They have a hard time getting Ian's out of the hot tub. One has had a knee replacement that I can see. GRANNY C thought it was funny when she came over to tell them that the two oldest broads have to fish out the pool noodles as they are the last to leave. They both look at me and say: we think the little chickadee should get them. The pool noodles remain in the pool.

BACK TO SCHOOL CAM:
Cam studies arts at a school here in Phoenix. He has been published three times. 2 poems and 1 short story. He wants to write children's stories however the only graphic artist he could find was one who does Japanese style drawing.... Dark ones he said.... He met this person on a bus..... Cam has two tattoos and farts in the hot tub. I now this because my ears phone where in and I could here bubbles coming from the hot tub and the jets WERE NOT on....

...more to come...

When shit hits the fan, soak the sun

Dear friends,

I'm in sunny Phoenix. I have decided that it is time to start to relax. I could vent about all that has happened, what I'm missing, whom I'm missing...HOWEVER....I'm not going to do that in this post. Instead, I will tell you about my current state.

First-you will hate me because I am posting from a hot tub. Kid you not. I'm in a hot tub, blogging. Sigh. Yes, this is the life.

Second-I hear nothing but the running fan and a few cars that pass by the condo complex....well, and some dude working in his car in the parking lot (I type this and now he is drilling, Bastard!).

Third- it is 14 degrees outside

Fourth- I found a kick ass sugar free concoction that I actually enjoy and am sipping on that.

Fifth- I'm gazing up and see an almost half moon, and stars and it's a clear night!

I will enjoy this moment because not many of them come along... It feels like I've been hit by a stung gun and I'm forced to just stop and enjoy for once. So I will.

:)

Much love from a scratchy pool deck,
R
