Day Two...

I ran this morning and again tonight before dinner...both times I thought to myself, "for the first time in my life I am actually proud of myself."  Proud that I managed to get on plane, without crying, settle into my destination, sit in a restaurant and have breakfast alone, and know that I am okay just the way that I am.  I thought for so long that my happiness was contingent on how another person felt about me...I could not have been more wrong. 
On a lighter note, thoughts for the day.
  1. Last night I was brought a complimentary bottle of wine with two glasses.  I sent one glass back but proceeded to drink the entire bottle by myself...yes, it may sound like a problem but really people, I'm on vacation.  And before you worry about my drowning accidentally, I did lock the back door to be sure I would not try to go for a swim.
  2. I want to learn to speak French...everyone is more attractive when they speak it.
  3. I am on my way to being the resident photographer of families and couples given that I am the only single person here...it feels a little bit like god is punishing me but I did get a few free drinks at dinner out of it.
  4. The pink swimsuit looks cute with a tan.
  5. I miss you all but am glad I'm here...as Natalie said, some journeys are meant to be taken alone.
  6. PING
  7. I worked up the courage to go skinny dipping after dinner but looked through the glass on my floor and spied sharks...yes, they are small and harmless but the courage is gone.
  8. I love this place...it kind of makes me wish I loved you all a little less so that I wouldn't want to come home.
  9. Tan lines...pfhhhh...that's what private balconies are for.
