  • Deflating Diva Travels!

    Off to Corpus Christie... where I decided to remove fifteen inches of hair to donate to Locks of Love. But Brenda at the Cuts and More in the mall mind you in Corpus there are two malls that are across the street from each other was not familiar with this practice and she cut my hair and let it fall to the floor. Wasting it all! Brenda then gave me the worst haircut in the world layering my hair short in back and long in the front? It now appears to be a bush! Can you say MAD! But then my wonderful Dh says nothing as he picks me up? Well I did teach him if you can't say anything nice Shutup! Two days later I ask hey did you notice anything different and he said yep but you taught me better.
    Grumble...Next stop Victoria

    Oh if you ever want the experience of boredom go to the little town of Victoria Texas. There is a Mall (all twenty or less shops) and if you are stuck in Victoria (DH had a Job there and I had no car) well that is the one attraction. Being as I am a people watcher I did what I do best. I purchased a deck of cards and went to the mall to people watch. So as I sat down with my bottled water I started playing Solitaire. While doing this I get to focus in on the locals. I swear these four older gentlemen were older than dirt, in need of viagra to hold their heads up and they thought they were the cats meow. Two days in a row I watched these same four men set at the same chairs and I promise if I get back to Victoria I am going to plant my butt at their table. These old geezers checked out everyone and commented on everyone that walked by. Little did they know I can read lips and these old farts were not very nice. Once one commented on a young lady who walked by talking about wanting some of that. I dang near spit my water out of my mouth when he said that. They were checking out the senior ladies as well... Large ladys did not impress them but boobs butts and legs were a major topic. When an Oriental boy of maybe three years old walked by one made a gesture of slant eyes and that set me off. I stopped playing with my cards and made a point to stare at them. As they left I took note that the one who wanted some of that was on a walker and had a hunched back. So maybe I was wrong maybe he just wanted legs that worked and a straight back.
    On the brighter side there was a couple oh the joy of having a loving spouse. He and she set side by side as she whipped out of her purse graham crackers and yogurt they each purchased a small coffee and you could see the love they radiated. It made my heart flip flop as I watched how gracious she served her love.
    There is one store in Victoria, Texas Mall Inspiring Scents well there are two locations one in town which means down the road a piece the other at the mall. There is an owner who was kind and so sweet when my DH called to say there was no motels available she over heard the conversation and whipped out her phone book to help us out. She is the only store I have found with The Lords Supper framed in gold just like I have been looking for the last three years. Such a nice woman she and I talked for over an hour.
    Two Big will be happy to hear I swam laps in the pool and walked a mile and a half during the noon time heat in Texas! I ran up and down stairs in the Super 8 motel and I walked the malls until I could recall what store was where.

    At last I am home with Spike who was so happy to see me peed all over my shoes...Gotta love home...

    As I read your PM to me I realised we were both in the mall about the same time. I stopped on our way to the beach to buy a data cord for my phone. I walked right by the food court with my son.
    I am sorry you found Victoria less then exciting, but next time we will paint the town red. Nothing will stop me from missing the chance to be bad in a mall with you.

        Wow, you are the traveling lady! Good for you! I love to people watch too! Its so much fun!
        I can't believe that the lady who cut your hair didn't put it in a pony tail first. I am glad you posted this because when I get to phoenix I am going to get 10 inches cut off of my hair to donate to Locks of Love. I haven't had a hair cut since 2002, I've been growing it for LOL and I would have just trusted the hair cut place to know what they are doing....not after what happened to you!
        Spike missed his Momma! What a cutie! I bet he is getting big!
