pink pills

Hello, from Puerto Vallarta!!

The workshop cruise is going great!! No big snafus, and everyone seems to be enjoying both the classes and the cruise.

Just wanted to pop in real quick and share this "Lucy and Ethel moment...

Today is our first chance off the ship. We'd planned a lovely excursion to a gorgeous beach for snorkeling and swimming and lounging. My leg hurt this morning because I hurt myself last night on stage in the big Princess theater, where I got myself hypnotized. More on that later. So, my sister hands me 3 pills right before breakfast and says they're Ibuprofin.

An hour later, as we are getting ready to get off the ship for the excursion and I realize that my mouth is talcum powder dry and I am sleepier than I know how to describe. I mention this to Marylou.... Her hand flies to her mouth as she exclaims, "Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god".

Turns out I'd just taken 3 Benadryl. I'm a medication lightweight. 'nough said.

I spent the first 5 hours of the 7 hour excursion dead asleep in a beach chair. Dead asleep.

Expensive sleep. But the last 2 hours were fantastic!!

More on Lucy and Ethel later!

Hi Ann,

I had to giggle reading about your Benadryl sleep ... now I'm waiting for details on the hypnotism!

Have you solved the Omega watch mystery yet? That is quite something.

And ... hopefully you found a decent read for the cruise. Always a good thing!
