what i did during my vacation

I drank green juice for breakfast every morning.

I made myself sick on French toast stuffed with goat cheese, pecans, and caramel sauce.

I ate organic greens, lots of fish, and fresh tropical fruits.

I also drank coffee, ate dessert, and sipped champagne.

I worked out in a private gym with iced mint tea on tap.

I got a Swedish massage. Then I got a deep tissue massage.

I was subtly scolded for trying to pull out my own chair ("Please, Señorita.").

I had chocolate cake delivered to my room at 11:30 p.m.

I felt a dolphin's heart beat.

I saw herons, vultures, dolphins, lizards of all sizes, bugs, birds, and a cat.

I impersonated Lady Gaga on the stage of a pirate ship. I was mortified. I got a t-shirt.

I went into the Pacific Ocean for the first time in my life.

I traveled across the bay in a turbulent motor boat.

I drank piña coladas while sitting in a swimming pool.

I got a tan...sort of.

I laughed at some stuff.

I noticed so many things growing.

And I relaxed.
