I am in paradise. Well, almost. I’m in Hawaii. I know, poor, poor me. You feel sorry for me, yes. I’ll make it even worse. My family lives here. So those boring family trips? I get to make them to Hawaii. Yes, poor, poor me.

Today I go to a wedding. My cousin is getting married. I’m very happy for him. Met the bride for the first time last night. She seems great. I’ll admit that I don’t like weddings. Never really have. Having been in 8 of them in my life — none my own — I lost the appreciation of them. Especially since of the 8 weddings I was in, I think only one of those couples is still married today. But the bride and groom seemed happy and I always wish the best for the couple. It can and does work. I’m a romance writer after all so I can’t be too jaded, right?

Want to know what a pervy old woman I am? Is sad but I was enjoying myself by watching all the handsome young men in and around the bridal party. Oh my, were they something to look at. And they weren’t too terribly young — between 25-30 — so I didn’t even have to feel all that guilty. Bonus!

I’m here until Thursday. Hoping the sun and paradise atmosphere will provide some inspiration. Perhaps I should pray to Pele? Now there’s a classy goddess!

    Yeah, so not feeling sorry for you except for the fact of attending the wedding. I equate weddings right up there with funerals…..can be great family reunions but hate going to either one.

    By all means feel free to take pictures of the eye candy to bring back for inspiration

    If watching hot (young) guys makes you a pervy old woman, I don’t even want to think about what that makes me. No, no, you’re perfectly normal, I swear.

    JL: Yes, ma’am. I just have to remember that I have a camera :)
