I was on vacation. For a whole week. 8 days to be exact. 8 days out of Chicago. 8 days out of the cold. 8 days in Florida. On a tiny little island, where grandparents hang out with each other and walk on the beach together with Chrissy. You asked me for the following:
- Gators modeling swimsuits.
- The hottest guy you can find. I want the six-pack, tattoos and everything. And you can say it was totally my fault if you get in trouble. SEE, I’m already a bad old lady!
- Every beach has “that guy.” You’ll know him when you see him. I want to see him and maybe a great woman in a two piece suit to remind my wife how fun vacation is and that we need to start saving if we plan on going.
- Awkward people.
- Maybe a great pic of you and Brian and a palm tree.
- Dolphins!!
- Toes in the sand (a request from a Google Hangout)
Unfortunately…I didn’t see ANY gators in swimsuits. The lucky bitches were all naked.
Finding hot guys on Marco Island is tough. I totally was a creeper and took this one, just for you. Closest I could find.
OK, fine. You asked for awkward people. As if that guy isn’t enough. And me taking a picture of those two guys. And really, me in general…I’m pretty fucking awkward. But fine.
And if that’s not enough for you, I went all the way. I randomly video’ed the beach just to show you how far I’m willing to go for you guys. Point out the awkward, hot, etc etc…BTW, the guy reading the book? Totally hot just because he was reading a book. That is all.
My mom wanted Brian and I by a palm tree…
I fucked up on the dolphin picture. So I didn’t really know how to work my camera on Day 1…when the fucking dolphins were 20-30 feet off the shore. Brian’s dad kept telling me to run in to swim with them (not understanding that I wanted to PAY money to swim with tame dolphins…not get raped by wild dolphins…)
So here are dolphins from last year.
You really don’t WANT to see the Flintstoes…but I’ll show ’em off anyways.
Things you didn’t ask to see, but I’ll show you for funsies:

I just smiled through this entire post. I love you, this post and the fact that you are so awesome. I think I may have even warmed up a little too thanks to the video on the beach, so I love that too!
Yay! I love making you smile! Happy to bring joy!
Did you notice that the “hot guy’s” pants are a little low. He may be a plumber in real life 😉
I did indeed! Hence the “awkward” 😉
I like random happenings. Nice job with this and cool idea to get ideas from bloggers on what they wanted you to take pictures of. I should do it when I go to vegas in june except I will forget by then…..
Thanks. I’m all over random here. You should definitely do it when you go to Vegas! (Cheat: schedule the post now!)
I am so confused by the gator/turtle. Why isn’t the gator trying to eat the turtle? Are they like the horse and the puppy in that Superbowl commercial?! Because I might cry again!
Seems like you fulfilled everyone’s wish list! Glad you had a great time!!
Did you manage to convince ‘awkward guy’ that taking a turtle-style ride on a gator was a great idea?! 😀
hahaha. Nope. But maybe next year!
From the looks of that last one, I’d say you were eventually abducted by aliens.
Cool.
I was hoping someone would mention the green light! We spent a lot of time staring at it.
Looks like you had a fab time. I’m very jealous that dolphins just rock up and swim around so close to shore. I’d have to pay a lot of money for a boat trip to get any chance of seeing them – and then I probably won’t see any because they’ll be chilling on Florida! Although with all this rain we’re having in England – you never know!
The dolphins sure do love Florida and so do I! And I think at this point, I’d take rain over the crazy amount of snow and subzero temps we’re having in Chicago!
That gator looked really close. Eek!
Don’t worry, there was a fence!
Fate brought me here and I was so smitten with your quirkiness, but then you lied about dolphins.
You monster. Now my heart is broken and I don’t think I’ll ever be able to trust again.
Alternately called. How Quirky Chrissy destroyed my faith in humanity.
I’m now drunk on power. Muahahaha!! Imagine all the things this monster can do….I may even steal some cheese (from like…the free sample section).
Also, for restoring faith in humanity, I recommend reading Aisha Tyler, Rainbow Rowell, or Gillian Flynn. Their talent and writing ability have that effect.
