Loretta had learned about Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa award winning Montetorkie School. After her predawn Tai Chi class she spent an hour basking in the rays of the morning sun. Before lunch she and the Face of Everyman would meditate. Later, sessions of guided imagery. She just might make it through the dark winter.
Strange Bedfellows
Sedgwick had a mean streak. Belly flops and cannonballs were some his favorite ways of tormenting the Face of Everyman. Truth be known, the venerable sage welcomed bit of washing away the litter that collected in his craggy features. The Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa had it’s share of strange bedfellows.
Addiction
A spate of addiction to bird seed swept thru the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. Even the children of good families were not spared this curse. the Face of Everyman created a diversion program. He ordered a truck load of expensive flowering plants and ten crates of apples. Soon the kids were hooked on tulips and apples. Was there no end to this madness?
Elections
With the outcome of the elections all but decided, Johnny Dark Eyes felt safe in returning to the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. He consulted with the Face of Everyman as to the collateral damage sustained by any of his nefarious sources of income. Seems that the new mayor was going to clean up every one of his back alley dice games. Well, Johnny would just have to expand his popular Dinner Cruise Casino flotilla.
Parkour
A new sport has taken the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa by storm: Parkour. Due to the number of injuries the contestants have incurred the Face of Everyman now wishes that he had never shared tales of his exploits in this derring-do sport. https://tinyurl.com/yakdddpp
Water Polo
the Face of Everyman always found it difficult to organize team sports at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. Some members took to the water easily; others had to be coaxed. The venerable sage found it difficult to match player’s skills to positions; let alone getting them to tread water. A clutch of ducklings would be so easy to train. Perhaps even win the pennant.
Ostracized
Bertram was never sure which suit to wear to these parties thrown by the Face of Everyman. He thought it was a soiree so he came in full mating colors. Which, of course, made everyone else appear dowdy. For the next week he was ostracized by the entire Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa.
