Louisa the Yeti Girl was growing tired of the
sun-deprived winter of the north, so one January
day she up and shaved her legs and pretty much all
the rest of her body, packed some bags, and headed
south for a vacation. She arrived in the Bahamas on
a beautiful day. After checking in at her hotel,
she headed to the beach.
On a lounge on the beautiful white sandy beach,
Louisa enjoyed the relaxing ocean breezes and sipped
on an umbrella drink while listening to Jimmy Buffett
on her Discman. At the moment, the world of the north
was far behind her, and she began to drift off on a
soft cloud of bliss, or perhaps it was her fifth
umbrella drink on which she was drifting off. At any
rate, she fell asleep and dreamt of a Yeti life on the
beach, hanging out at the drinks cabana, listening to
the steel drum band, swimming in the ocean with the
warm waters gently moving through her silky Yeti fur
and hair.
When Louisa awakened on the beach in the morning,
she decided to try the tropical life for a while.
She really liked the raw oysters they served at the
hotel bar, and had them every night for a week.
Nothing much happened, and she spent the days on the
beach or shopping, and the nights either dancing in
nearby clubs or watching cable and ordering room
service in her hotel room.
Louisa had little experience with credit cards, in
fact this was her first experience using one, but she
felt sure that Kyle would call her when he got the
bill. He would have to call her. Of course, she
would then coyly say that she must have accidentally
mixed up their credit cards while he was laid up with
hypothermia at her house. She would offer to pay the
bill, of course, but she would need his accounting help
with her finances. She was pretty sure that she had
finances. The bank sent her statements once in a while,
but she rarely opened them and never really examined
them, as it seemed too much of a bother. Louisa the
Yeti Girl smiled with contentment and anticipation as
she picked up the phone and ordered lobster to go with
the movie that was just about to start on the hotel
cable television.
