dear diary — day 1
all packed for the cruise ship — all my nicest dresses, swimsuits, short sets
really, really exciting
our local red hat chapter — the late bloomers decided on this all-girls trip
it will be my first one — and i can’t wait
————————————————————–
dear diary — day 2
entire day at sea, beautiful
saw whales and dolphins
met the captain today — seems like a very nice man
————————————————————–
dear diary — day 3
at the pool today
did some shuffleboard, hit golf balls off the deck
captain invited me to join him at his table for dinner
felt honored and had a wonderful time
he is very attractive and attentive
———————————————————-
dear diary — day 4
won $800.00 in the ships casino
captain asked me to have dinner with him in his own cabin
had a scrumptious meal complete with caviar and champagne
he asked me to stay the night, but i declined
told him i could not be unfaithful to my husband
————————————————————–
dear diary — day 5
pool again today
got sunburned, and i went inside to drink at piano-bar, stayed there for rest of day
captain saw me, bought me several large drinks
really is quite charming
again asked me to visit his cabin for the night
again i declined
he told me, if i did not let him have his way with me, he would sink the ship
i was shocked

dear diary — day 6
today i saved 2600 lives
twice
