I feel his warm hands all over my body. They start low and move up slowly. I’m eagerly anticipating where they might go next… Suddenly I sense a bright light shining a bit too warm on my face. The heat wakes me up and I immediately realize that I was dreaming and the warmth I…
The air inside the bubble lounge is at least 10 degrees cooler than the air outside. I can see why people choose to hang out here. I head to the furthest corner of the room, hoping to avoid people for a while. Actually, there’s one person that I wouldn’t mind seeing, but I’d rather stay…
What I thought was an amazing idea last night, doesn’t feel like such a sure thing this morning. I talk myself out of even mentioning it to Michelle at least 20 times from the time I wake up until I finish breakfast. Michelle comes out of the bathroom sporting a cute short finger waves style….
As I’m sitting there enjoying the effects of the bubbles, I see Q hurrying by. I’m guessing that he must have been in the restrooms because I didn’t notice him before. Alida: So…is this where you disappeared to the last time I saw you? Q pauses for a moment… Q: Maybe…I come here a lot….
I wake up feeling extra hot and sweaty. Then I turn over and realize that it’s because Michelle is in my bed. I find out why when we both go to the kitchen to eat breakfast. Michelle: Sorry for hijacking your bed last night. I’m just not used to sleeping in a room all alone…

Apparently, no one sleeps in Strangerville. There was noise all night coming from the bar. I end up waking up at around 4:30 am with no Mama Nadine to act as our singing alarm clock and no freshly prepared breakfast. I’m starving and it’s up to me to figure out what to eat. I shower…
Michael shows off his new ‘light spin’ moves while trying to convince Mama Nadine to dance with him. Mama Nadine: Oh no…I’ve never been much of a dancer. After some convincing from the rest of us…she finally sways her body a bit to the music, but we can tell that it’s not really her thing….
I approach the Barista at the coffee shop that’s basically nothing more than an outdoor food stand. Alida: Hi…how are you? I was wondering if you guys are hiring. As soon as the words are out of my mouth, I hear a chuckle behind me… I turn and look to see a guy about my…
