Bath Duckie
Here's one...you have won a full spa treatment at a Hollywood spa and there are movie stars everywhere!?
CAN YOU WRITE A PARAGRAPH OR 2 OR MORE THAT INCLUDES THESE PHRASES? This is NOT homework...just a little creative fun on Yahoo.
1.The two of us are a study in contrast.
2. If you stare at me any harder you'll burn a hole in the atmoshere.
3. Not to be Johnny Raincloud,but....not going to happen.
4. Ahhhh....champagne.
5. OH MY GAWD !
6. A little smile. A little laugh. A little duckie in the bath.
My wonderful husband Howard and I are at the Indulge Yourself resort and spa located in beautiful Palm Springs, California. We have been married for 20 years and let me tell you the two of us are a study in contrast. He is handsome, smart, quiet and very opinionated as he will tell you what he thinks rather you like it or not. He does consulting work for firms that want to develop products. What can I say about me? Well let’s see, I’m currently unemployed. Got mad at my prior boss and went home one night and didn’t bother to go back – guess that makes me a little on the stupid and impulsive side. I try not to “rock the boat” but because I tend to hold things in, when I get to my breaking point, then Lord help all that happen to be close by. I’m not physically violent but I take no hostages in regards to words. I thought since I didn’t have to get up to go to work and could use some cheering up that we could visit the spa and have a couple days of pampering. This spa is rumored to be very popular with celebrities when they need to loose a pound or two before award shows. Seeing as how the Oscars are coming up, it should be overrun with famous people.
You should see this place – it’s gorgeous! I counted five chandlers hanging in the lobby alone. The floors are Italian marble and the carpet looks so plush that I started to take my shoes off so I could feel it against my feet. As I reached down to remove a shoe, Howard gave my one of “his” looks. “You know if you stare at me any harder you’ll burn a hole in the atmoshere” I told him as I straightened up and left my shoe on. Decided that I would come back down when he was napping to try out their wonderful carpet.
We checked in at the front desk and as we were going to our room I through the lady with the oversized sunglasses looked just like Mia Farrow. The suites are well furnished and large. Our room looks over the pool area and salt baths. Howard asked me if I was going to put on a bathing suit and go lay among the rich and famous. “Not to be Johnny Raincloud, but…not going to happen.” I told him as I laughed at that silly notion. Guess I forgot to tell you that I’m a “Few” pounds overweight and I avoid cameras and bathing suits with a passion.
We left our suite and went down to the pool area to see if we could find some movie stars. Sure enough sitting at the bar was Antonio Banderas and Melanie Griffith along with Kevin Costner engaged in a conversation. I must admit I stood there staring until a waiter came over and offered us glasses of champagne. “Ahhhh…champagne” I said to Howard. “I could live like this forever”. Of course Howard being more grounded, reminded me that one of us was unemployed so I would be better developing a taste for grape juice. I was getting ready to say something really witty when everyone suddenly heard “OH MY GAWD!” and a loud splash as someone was pushed into the pool. Standing at the far side of the pool was Hillary Clinton and yes, it was Bill Clinton who was threading water and not looking too happy if you asked me. Hillary hissed that he was not going to embarrass her again and that he better find a way to control himself. Then she turned on her heels and stormed off. At this time the good ole Secret Service detail came and helped Mr. Clinton, who was fully dressed I should mention, out of the pool and they headed after Hillary. Wonder what room they were staying in as it would probably be pretty interesting over there tonight.
Having had enough of the excitement by the pool, Howard and I went back to our suite to enjoy the private hot tub that was in our bathroom. “Marilynn, come her a minute” Howard called. As I approached the bathroom I could see something moving about in the hot tub. It was a small mallard that apparently flew in through the open French doors. “Don’t bother him” I said. “It reminds me of that children’s nursery rhyme that goes something like, A little smile. A little Laugh. A little duckie in the bath.” “Let him enjoy the warm water tonight”. No sooner had I say that then the stupid duck panicked and start flying all over the suite. He knocked down the floor lamp causing the glass shade to shatter. I could have dealt with that, but apparently the duck wasn’t through with us yet, as it started pooping all over the place as it flew about the room. We tried to usher it out the French doors but each time we got it close, the duck eluded us and went back towards the living room. Out of desperation I opened the front door to the hallway and the duck flew out and hit Paris Hilton in the head. Paris said a few choice words but when she saw the little mallard sitting stunned on the ground she stooped and picked it up. Needless to say Paris now has a duck in her pet population.
