Happy Place Man Candy

We all have our internal places of comfort we escape to during times of stress. Our happy place. The place we go to feel good. Some think of a warm beach, or a soft fluffy cloud, or even just their comfy couch at home. My often frequented hot spot is Happy Place Island.

This island does really exist, thought I don't know were yet. Somewhere in the tropics. Not a overdeveloped tourist trap, it has white sand beaches surrounded by emerald blue water. When life's mundane pressure hits, I have oftentimes planned on selling off all my material possessions for the cash to set up a new simple life there. In a blink of my dream filled eyes, I would willingly part with my home, cabin, toys and vehicles to sleep on the beach in a grass skirt and coconuts. Might even sell off a kid or too.

My lazy carefree days are spent lolling around the water edge. Perhalps I learn to cook really good jerk barbecue and fresh roasted coffee if I need to trade with the few other inhabitants. There will, of course be other people on my island, someone has to do the real work for me.
If I am not belly dancing and learning to play the mandolin, I will be snorkeling for fish. This nature girl will make her clothes out of fresh flowers. Oh yes, life on Happy Place Island is good.

There are no phones on Happy Place, so you must come visit me. Err us. Me, Lenny Kravitz, The Rock, Steven Tyler, Owen Wilson and Will Smith will all look forward to your company. Leave all drama behind.

Welcome to Happy Place Island. Bring man candy.

Count me in. I'll bring Orlando Bloom, Johnny Depp, Viggo Mortenson and Antonio Banderas.

Penelope said...

Me too. Elijah Wood's the only one I'd add to the list. But the wearing nothing but fresh flowers and leaving ALL drama behind is something I'm longing for right now. (expecially the being nude under flowers, I mean seriously who wouldn't want to do that?)

Yes girls, sounds like we got the start to a sweet sweet getaway. I have towels and lounge chairs saved for you. Umm Jojo, is it cool with you if Antionio is within earshot of me so I can enjoy that voice? MJ, heck ya, I wanna see that hot little hobbit clad in only foliage. Solie, brillant! Bruce will entertain us all with action stunts. For those of you who are timid and require close- thats ok too, we do not judge on this island- hell show up in last weeks moo-moo. I have special sun glasses to cover asses if you do not care to view anyones bon-bon. If Lenny Kravitz scares ya- we will only use him for commercial segments-or private shows if everyone is good with that. And yes the huts will be equipt with cable if that is a gotta have. Just be sure the candy packs sun block.

Well ladies I will only bring my bf....ok, ok, I hear the collective moan and see the eye rolls lol...but he is also very french and has an accent to die for hehe.
Also I will have to decline on the wearing flowers over naked body style..with my size it would take a fricken garden full to cover my bits and pieces..can I just reserve a small section of island to grow my own TURF?

lab munkay said...

Oh la-la Moon, by all means bring the bf. It's Happy Place Island so all know he will be perfect. I'm thinking of bringing the hot little waiter from last nights resteraunt just to mix it up alittle. Close are optional. But on this island curves are considered beatiful. If it's granny jammies ang leg warmers you grove in, we are with ya. I'm currently writting this on a serf board wearing my nephews hand me down cargo jeans and the vikings jersey I have slept in the past 3 nights. Brad Pit loves this look and sends his love.

Soleil, I will practice typing your name correctly. Right after I get mine right.

Solange Hommel said...

I'll forgive you, but you will have to lend me Owen Wilson and Will Smith for a tiny bit. :)

Since you were not specific defining man candy, I am coming and bringing J-Lo and Nichole Kidman. Man candy can be candy for men, can it not? Not that you hotties ain't sugar. x-o Biker Mitch
