On Wed, I was led to Maya Key by the piano man, Randy (as soon as we're friends on Facebook, I'll tag him, but I'm sure you can figure out who he is). He kept telling me about his friend George... yes, he did say he was a monkey, but I didn't realize how friendly he'd be. Hugs hugs hugs. And kisses. He also loved to play with the velcro on my Tevas.
Went snorkeling.
Got bit or stung by something that left some cool looking red spots all over my back, arms, and feet. No pain, or itching (until the next day). Randy tried to tell me it was sea lice. I think it was noseeums. Biting gnats. And now they are like mosquito bites. Grrr.
Such a lovely day. It was the farthest I have been from the boat - about 15 minutes away on a smaller boat. Very quiet beach with a variety of animals in captivity - perhaps it's a preserve? Not many people know about it, it's well maintained, and they have nice facilities. Definitely going back. With bug deterrent.
Have been checking out the meteor showers the past couple of nights. Saw a huge one two nights ago! Takes patience. When I think of a "shower," being from Seattle, I think of lots of meteors. I think it's more like a meteor occasion(al). I saw 8 in half an hour last night.
Yesterday was a long day. 10 hours of work. Sometimes it tries my patience being on call always. I'll be in the middle of a nap, not expecting work for another 3 hours, and get a call to be backstage for one reason or another. A little more communication and pre-planning would prepare me to not be (as) grumpy. But did not get so much yesterday. Oh well. It's still a great life.
I get paid to live where people pay to be.
Love and itchy spots,
Jme
How great that your route sometimes changes! Love the pics of "Monkey Love!" You look great and it is clear that sea life agrees with you! Seafair is over and now I will catch up with all of the stuff I was supposed to do. Will look into your mail but it has slowed to a trickle! What shoes do you want?
ReplyDeleteMom loves you best!
Keep it up, they can only ask so many questions. Once you train your staff well, and they'll get all the answers (perhaps learn how to troubleshoot as well) you should be able to get some much deserved sleep.
ReplyDeleteYou look beautiful on your pictures! Now that I'm back in Philadelphia and once I'm over this nasty bug that I've had for 4 months I should be able to write you an e-mail. Or perhaps a mail? I'll try next week once I feel better, but you know how bad I am with personal correspondence. I'll try though.
Always happy to see you update your blog :-)
