Don't Step on a Duck

We got home from our cruise last night. My middle son went with us, to celebrate his college graduation. He had never been on a cruise and did not know what to expect, but he really seemed to enjoy himself. We ate way too much and spent way too much, but my son actually was up $200 after a week at the casino. I really think I could be a compulsive gambler if I was rich enough to get started at it, which is scary.
We had dinner assignments at a large table of women in their 60's and 70's, and boy! Did those women like to talk! It was non-stop for a week, I think. Of course, they were doing some drinking before coming to dinner each night, and the alcohol helped them loosen up a bit. One even told jokes, like this one:
Three single women die and go to heaven. When they get there, Saint Peter tells them to come on in. They look around and see that heaven is just FULL of ducks, with ducks running everywhere. Saint Peter tells them to go enjoy themselves, but whatever they do, don't step on a duck!
After a week, the first women accidently steps on a duck. God appears with this ugly little troll of a man and says, "He will be your husband for eternity" and off they go together.
The other women see this, and they get very careful, but after another month, the second woman accidently steps on a duck. Again, God appears with an ugly little troll man and says, "He will be your husband for eternity."
The last woman really freaks out this time, and she watches every step she takes. For six months, she has not stepped on a duck. God appears to her with this tall, handsome, hunk of a man and says, "He will be your husband for eternity!" She can't believe her good fortune, turns to her new husband and says, "Wow, you're gorgeous. What did I do to deserve this?" He replies, "I don't know what you did, but I stepped on a duck."
I'm seriously considering quitting my volunteer job I took on. The good thing about being a volunteer is how much you feel appreciated. The bad side is they give you all the crappy jobs no one else wants to do. However, I plan to go by and get my plant from my office and let them know.
I guess we'll spend our weekend catching up on all the television shows we missed but Tivo'd. (Is Tivo'd a word? If not, it should be.) I'll post some pics of the cruise later.
I watched Grey's Anatomy last night and used half a box of Kleenex. Wow, talk about a tear-jerker.
Oh, and Amy! FYI! It's 85 degrees in Mexico. Oooh La La!
