I think I would be content living only in hotel rooms. Although not when I am a Red Cross refugee and my cat has gone missing. I could do without hotel rooms in circumstances like that. But all other times … it’s like my blood pressure automatically lowers the second I walk into a hotel room. I am comfortable, productive, happy. I sleep like a baby. My mind is clear.
Goal for 2012: Spend as much time in hotel rooms as possible. So far, so good.
Oog. The carpet pattern in the last one. Either that’s the same hotel in my very dim memories of one of the most debauched evenings in my young life, or they all get that from some hotel carpet warehouse.

hahaha a flashback, huh?
Ever have one of those fetal-position moments, where no matter what scientific rational to the contrary may exist, you know the world is spinning faster with each turn, and it’s all going to end badly?
Yeah, that. Thank you, Atlantic City.
worst feeling in the WORLD.
I read somewhere that the reason that hotels are so soothing is the lack of things on horizontal surfaces. Now in my bedroom I try to keep the horizontal surfaces clear. It makes a difference.
I love hotels-even cheap ones!

I’d love to live in a series of hotel rooms.
I think it is the medicated ventilation systems that bring such deep deep sleep. Hotels are always preferable to outdoor camping. It is always nice to be a little closer to nature AND have good room service. America understood this in the early 1900s with the Yellowstone Inn, El Tovar Hotel and Ahwahnee Hotel. Then those stinky pitted orgiastic Hippies on E weren’t content with a stucco teepee and overwhelmed nature. Fortunately, many of the truly great Hotels have been preserved and are thriving.
As an hotel manager I slept and worked in hotels all my life and was always afforded a good room. Crisp cotton sheets were there to meet me each night and after a long shift and a shower the feeling of comfort and the knowledge that I was amongst other satisfied sleepers all made for a great nights sleep. As soon as I opened the door the next morning the smell of breakfast and business invigorated me so I agree and maybe for different reason, I love hotel rooms.
For just a moment…in that last shot…I saw 2 little girls at the end of the hall.
And they said ‘red-rum’.
Hiya, Sheila. Hope you are well.
