Do You Remember…

We all have that one friend that is our “Get in Trouble Partner”, you know, the friend that will jump right in with you no matter what, yeah!  That one!

Well, I have one of the best and I am not sure which one of us is worse, lol, her or me!?!  Maybe that’s why we are so well suited for each other, and we have certainly been in some fun spots.  Anyways, you are going to be glad for our funny antics, as I have a truly hilarious story to share about just how much trouble we can get into on any given occasion…

I think it must have been not too long after we both graduated from college about 8 or 9 years ago, I want to say.   The two of us decided to go on a girl’s weekend, just to relax with no responsibilities.  We chose a resort way out in the woods, that had natural hot springs, beautiful private cabins, and all of the amenities that we dreamt about back home.  I should have seen the warning signs when we first arrived, that it would be one of those weekends!

First things first!  My Chica, as I love to call her, is none other than Danielle Steele!  Not the actual author, mind you, but a very talented and beautiful Danielle Steele, none the less!  Maybe, if your lucky, one day I will tell you about how I also am associated with The Tom Seleck! 

So, here we are on a Friday night, walking in to the lobby of the resort, ready to check in and quietly slip away to our river side cabin.  As we walked toward the registration, we noticed a small crowd of employees milling about back behind the desk, looking at us very strangely.  By the time we stepped up to sign in, Danielle was already realizing what was going on, and started laughing.  It never occurred to me about the name confusion.  As soon as we all finished laughing and the crowd broke up, we gathered our keys and found our cabin for the stay.  Out came all of our adult beverages and grown-up snacks, and we got right to the fun part, girly jammies and everything.  **Note to self!  When you are in your underwear, and you decide to let loose for a girl’s night, put your cabin key in your pocket!

Apparently, these cabins come with automatic locking doors.  Who Knew?  After trotting, in our jammies, to the office that was all the way across the resort, we retrieved another key from the front desk.  If they didn’t remember us from check-in, they most certainly would remember us now!  I could say that this was memorable enough for you, and end my funny tale right here!  That would be boring…

Saturday dawned beautifully for us and we spent the whole day getting massages, sitting in the natural hot springs, and partaking in our beverages and treats from the night before.  Dinnertime finally arrived, and we had been so excited for this because it was an amazing restaurant with absolutely fantastic ratings!  Looking like a million bucks, we arrived for our reservations and were given a lovely table, already set with a light wine on ice.  With our dinner order placed, we opened our bottle of wine, while waiting on the arrival of our appetizer.  I took one sip of the wine, and I suddenly knew something was not right.  Before you blame the food or drink served, I will redirect you to the fact that I had been in the sun all day, had a massage, consumed adult goodies earlier, and did not drink enough water.  Some grown up I turned out to be, lol, rookie mistake!

I tried to make it to the restroom in order to splash water on my face, but only made it as far as the hallway leading that way.  I saw the doorway, looked down the hall to the young man running towards me, and went down like a sack of potatoes!  Meanwhile, my partner in crime was sitting at the table listening to the racket in the hallway just outside of her view, and she knew it was me!  She walks around the corner just in time to see me lift my head and throw up all over the attendants’ shoes!  As I did this, I farted at the same time, causing my girlfriend to start laughing hysterically! 

She saw that I was not dead, and headed toward the bathroom, still laughing her hind end off!  The attendant looked up at her, horrified, and said, “Lady, this is your friend!  How can you go to the bathroom right now?”

In only the way my Chica would say it, she paused in the doorway and replied, “If you don’t let me go to the bathroom right now, mister, there is gonna be two messes for you to clean up!”  The look on the young man’s face was priceless! 

Oh, I was fine!  And my Chica knew that by the way that I was laughing my butt off right there along with her, because I knew how funny this memory would be for both of us, for years to come!  I sometimes wonder if we are a part of the resorts training videos for new employees.  Wouldn’t that be a hoot!  There is no one like you my sweet friend! Till the wheels fall off, Chica!!!
