The More You Know - July Beach Edition

Observations from last weekend at the beach:

1.  Fractured Prune doughnuts all taste the same.  Don't spend 10 minutes staring at the menu board and holding up the line while you decide if you want the Salted Caramel or the OC Sand.  They taste EXACTLY the same.  You'll love them both.  Move along so that the rest of us can get on our way.

2.  You bitches are carrying waaaaaayyyy too much to the sand.  Are those your kids sand toys?  Oh hell no!  They will play with it for no more than 3 minutes.  The rest of the time, they're going to want to swim, dig for sand crabs, and run to the ice cream man when he rings the bell at your street.  Save the shoulder pain and pack light.  Better yet, make your man carry that shit.

No No No No No No No


3.  What's with the make-up?  I watched a woman's face literally melt on Saturday night while sitting on the deck at BJ's on the Water.  Literally.  Take a vacation from your usual make up.  You look good with that little bit of sunburn that you picked up on the beach.  Add some mascara and you're good to go.




4.  Two really important facts:  Just because you have a karaoke machine, doesn't mean that you can sing.  Also - drinking more alcohol does not make you a better singer (even if you are in a hot tub).

5.  Big thanks to PNC Bank for putting an ATM machine on Coastal Highway in Fenwick Island.

6.  Everyone in Northeastern Pennslvania takes vacation in Ocean City, MD.  None of them drive over 30 MPH.



7.  That Off!  Cutter stuff really works.  Week #3 and still no mosquitos.  Not sure what's in it (not sure I want to know), but it's pretty effective.



This coming weekend, I am going to explore the foreign shores of Atlantic City, NJ!  I'm heading to see The Who at Boardwalk Hall.  It will be interesting to see another part of the Atlantic coast (a part that I have not seen since I was a little girl) and spend a bit of time with the person who makes-me-laugh-so-hard-that-I-pee-a-little-and-always-lets-me-drive-because-he-knows-I'm-insane-if-I-don't - my super-cool husband.

I'm going to bet that there will be very few people from NE Pennsylvania in Atlantic City and I'm also going to bet that there will be no moms carrying sand toys.  I really don't know what to expect, but I'm really looking forward to it.

Meet me tonight in Atlantic City!


I'll miss my OC trip this week.  Hope you all enjoy and remember to pack light.  I leave you with this Word of the Week from the OCMD boardwalk:




Love you all!
