Dolphin Love; The Real Slim Shaggy
Vayos a la playa! My good friend BCat and I are going to Costa Rica next month! This trip has been on the back burner for a couple of years now, and we're finally doing it. BCat lives in California, so we don't get to see each other often, but we love to travel together. We've been to Cuba, Mexico twice, Big Sur, Los Angeles. Here we are in Mexico a couple of years ago:
Costa Rica is a popular tourist destination now, for those who say they aren't into the Cabo Wabo scene but secretly long for cheap drinks and an excuse to get loaded on the beach, as well as those who had a stuffed sea turtle as a child, but we're going to the most remote part of the country. You take a small plane, then a taxi, then a boat. The place has only five cabinas and no shops, restaurants, or booze luges.
And best of all, it has the subversive name of Delfin Amor. Yes, BCat and I are joining CAWDLA: The Central American Woman-Dolphin Love Association.
In other news, I saw "8 Mile" the other night with Donna Puma, the Greyhound, and the taller of the two tall architects. Good thing DP was with me so that we could giggle hysterically as the underlying "Scooby-Doo" structure of the movie emerged. But through it all, Marshall Mather III is polite and sensitive, especially around gay men and small children.
Sara nailed it last week: Save some cheese and rent "Purple Rain."
