I am on vacation. I have been learning to sail. I learned to tie three knots and I dreamed about knots last night. People here are obsessed with crab-themed clothing. Elderly men in crab-themed attire. It is like a burlesque of the creepy rich. Everyone is so smiley. Your motivation is: obsequious!

There will be photos. I have gone sailing for the past two days, and been out in the rays of the fiery ball for a combined six or seven hours and yet I am not burned. This means that, for the first time in my life, I have developed and applied a successful sunburn-prevention strategy. This is extremely good, as otherwise my skin would turn into its own crab-themed sort of attire: all red and leathery.

There have been many naps and sleeps on this vacation. Also drinks with umbrellas, small French children, and a bunny sighting. We return to DC on Sunday, where we will eat cheese and prepare for the return to the sunless everyday.
