things to do: II



12 Things to do alone in a hot tub (it's harder than you think):

Main problem: I couldn't read because I just know I would have gotten the book wet. Not allowed.

1- Learn exactly, through trial and error, how all the jet and heat controls work.
2- Try to figure out why it refuses to heat up past luke warm
3- Try each corner of the tub for optimal sunlight exposure and jet propulsion.
4- Sit and stare at the ocean and sing the same song over and over again to yourself
5- Pull the chlorinating floater apart and figure out how it works.
6- Put it back together
7- Figure out the floater's exact path while the jets are on full blast
8- Watch it's path for 5 minutes
9- Turn off the jets completely and see if the path still exists
10- Pull the floater apart again just for kicks
11- Experiment with different leg positions to see if there's any way to keep yourself from floating off the seat
12- Entertain those watching through the window

Make sure you're really bored or these things aren't really going to do it for you.

"If it's supposed to be possessive, it's just i-t-s, but if it's supposed to be a contraction, it's i-t-apostrophe-s; scallywag!" Ask yourself: "does the sentence still work if you replace "it's" with "it is"?"
