Things I Don’t Understand….

Like the fact that people out there actually WANT to go to Costa Rica on vacation.

THAT makes NO sense to me whatsoever !

Granted, I have absolutely NO use for that country…but I suppose those who don’t know any better might be interested to go there….

J raves about his experiences there…

But then again, of COURSE he does, right?

Considering….

And his dirty friend liked it SOOOO much (again, not a stretch to figure out WHY) that he was telling J that “we should go again ! like plan a trip !” when we saw him last. I shot J the look of death and the subject was dropped like a hot potato.

One of my co-workers was telling me today of his plans for his upcoming honeymoon – Costa Rica.

ICK !
Though he was saying that they were going to wait to do that trip and go in December but they’ll be going to Vegas as their “in place of” honeymoon. O.keeeee Do.keeee…..

See, I’ve never been to Vegas but I already KNOW I don’t want to go there and J knows he’s going there without me (as evidenced by his not going for his dirty friend’s bachelor party there).

I almost think maybe it’s just me and my prejudice against Costa Rica, but my friend, H, went there last year and hated it too. Sure, it had a large part to do with her boyfriend up and leaving her for 5 hours on their first night in town in the hotel room with his son while he went off to the hooker hotel with his friends, but still !

Again, maybe if J had managed to BEHAVE himself in Costa Rica, and I wasn’t disgusted by the country’s dirtiness and I wasn’t TERRIFIED of monkeys and food I can’t identify and didn’t feel that I had to worry about being kidnapped and sold to some pimp then I wouldn’t have such a bad opinion of that country. I’m sure it must hold SOME sort of interest for others who haven’t had to deal with the bad parts of it all. Me? Just drop me off in Turks & Caicos and I’m a happy kind of girl. Turquoise waters, white sand beaches and swimming pools with bars smack in the middle of them ! That’s a paradise for me !
