A Deserted Island?

My friend, Ang., has this notion that if she were on a deserted island, she’d want me to be one of the 5 people stranded there with her. HAHA! Poor Ang. has no idea what a wimp I am in the great outdoors! Although I’d be great at sitting on the beach and enjoying the perpetual motion of the water.

Now Ang. wants me to decide what 5 friends I’d want to take with me to this deserted island. Okay, here goes.

First up is Suni. I gotta have her. She’s strong and outspoken. And she’s my sister so I need her there.

Next is Laura. Look, the woman has not one but TWO sets of toddler aged twins. And she’s still coherent! You know we need her on that island, almost as much as she needs to get away there.

Now, anyone who knows me is well aware that my biggest fear is bugs. I can handle spiders because they eat flies and I detest flies. I’m terrified of bees, wasps, hornets. Ants freak me out. And so, if I’m going to be spending time on this deserted island then I need someone around who knows all about the creepy-crawly things that we might meet. That’s why I’m bringing Skeet along. Besides being a bug expert, she also lives on a beautiful island so she’s going to be very useful on many levels. Yep, Skeet’s going to be ship wrecked with me!

It’s always good to have someone who can build stuff and who’s really smart. And if I’m shipwrecked on a deserted island, my neighbor will probably send out a search team for me anyway. So I might as well bring Tammie along so she can build the deck on our grass hut and still be my neighbor.

Finally, no deserted island is complete without a male presence. There are several who come to mind but I’m going to have to pick my friend Jimi. I don’t know what kind of job he has or what talents he possesses; I don’t even know what he looks like since all I ever see is that darn xray of his head! But I have a feeling he’d be good under pressure and he’d get along well with an island of women. And if not, I think the four of us could take him.

So there you have it. My deserted island is populated. Now excuse me while I go pack my overnight case for this little excursion.
