My Vacay Wasn’t All Just About Sex

The fact that I spent much of my trip with a hot, foreign tongue shoved down my throat has nothing to do with my not posting here as promised during those couple of weeks — really. Oh how I sobbed when I realized my Net connection was too slow and unreliable to write especially as I finally had something delicious to report!
This was my 20th year spending my summer vacay in Portugal and instead of going through the usual motions with blinders on; this trip proved to be enlightening and surprising and not entirely in my usual superficial sort of way either… well… kinda.
Things I discovered this year:
I am no longer as much as Lisbon girl as I am a suburban girl who hopes to learn to be a medium-sized village girl.
The bugs are huge and have the supernatural ability to escape death making them impossible to flush down the toilet even with much paper.
I still don't like seafood even though my name means 'woman of the sea' and no longer care that it makes me a disgrace to my people.
Radio is a billion times better in Portugal than it is here! Robbie Williams. Nuff' said.
I can no longer deny the desire to live there that I have been aware of since I was 14.
An accent makes me wet no matter how often I hear it.
The person that I spent the last year running away from is the best thing that ever happened to me.
Thanks to said person (above) I will never judge a book by its cover again. Just cuz it lives in a village and wears plaid shirts, does not mean that it is not worldly, articulate, funny, exciting (sooo exciting!) or fluent in English!!
And happily, I have also finally discovered that not all men are cowardly and easily intimidated by me! There is at least one who knows how to say what's on his mind; good or bad and knows how to take charge even in the presence of a strong willed and often times pig headed crazy sex fiend like myself!
This is not to say that I'm going soft on you all — on the contrary! This has just opened up a whole new world of things to laugh about, bitch about and kiss and tell about.
Oh! I also found out that a village that I thought consisted of nothing more than a couple of banks and greasy restaurants is also home to not one, but two sex bars — complete with Brazilian hookers and overpriced booze! Yes!! I really could feel at home there.
A big thanks to Vanilla Funk for this drawing of us. No matter how old and decrepid we get; she still sees us as the lovely "Vacation Angels" that we were 20 years ago.
