Yes! finally a moment to relax without the pressures of life!
mreeep!

You were dreaming.
Aw, shit.

So how was work today, Jon?
Oh Donna, it was great! I had the best daydream! I ...
Of course ... Jon hates his job, why would he enjoy it if he were actually paying attention?
blah blah blah blah blah blahditty blah blah blah blah blah etcetera blah blah blah ICELAND blah blah blah ditty ditty blah --
Wait, what: Iceland?!
Yeah, lets go to Iceland! I got some tickets online when my boss was turned; we leave in four hours!

I think I'm gunna be sick.
First class was too expensive, but don't worry; the flight's only eight hours long.
Don't you think we should have put a little more planning into this?
Donna, I was trying to be spontaneous! You can't plan spontenaiety!
Four hours would have been plenty of time to pack extra underwear.
Why? I probably wouldn't be using it anyway.

In Keflavik ....
Well, here we are! Sunny Iceland! Can't you just feel the cleanliness?
Oh wow, I think I saw a bush ...
So, where do you want to go first?
Jon, what could you possibly know about Iceland?
Well, it's, eh, more green than Greenland?
That's it, I'm getting a Guide Book, I don't care how touristy it makes us look.

The Guide Book says that Iceland is a geological wonder: with glaciers, volcanoes, waterfalls, and the like ...
What's the largetst city?
Reykjavik. It says here that about half of the country's population lives in Reykjavik and surrounding areas.
So what's the total population?
About 300,000!

So you're telling me we're in a country with a population less than Chicago?!
Well, I thought it'd be nice to get away for once ...
New York City is getting away, Las Vegas is getting away, this is ... this is like roughing it in the outback! Getting away is about relaxation, not survival of the fittest!
I guess it wouldn't help to mention we have our own personal hot tub at the hotel ...
Well, why didn't you say so? Go rent a car and lets get started!
Somehow I get the feeling I'll need a vacation after this ...

In Reykjavik
Long flight ... long day ... I need a drink!
Alright, you relax here and start filling the hot tub, I'll go get us some good Icelandic beer!
Hm ... American.
I'll have two beers, please!
That will be sixteen-hundred krónur.
Uh, hold on a minute, I think I left my krónurs in my other pants ...

Maybe this vacation wasn't such a great idea ....
I mean, I know Donna's more the city-type, but I thought if I got her out somewhere where she could fully appreciate the landscape ....
'Allo!
Jon, you DO remember who Donna is, right?
oh ... SNAP!

A bad case of Boy Meets Girl ...
Americans are funny ...
Hola! My name's American, and I'm a Jon!
If you wait long enough, they'll top themselves ...
I'm here with my dog, Donna, I mean, my girlfriend's dog, or was it my dog's girlfriend?
I'm Gyða.
I'm an idiot, aren't I?

So you and your girlfriend Donna just randomly decided to pop out of the country for a little holiday, and Iceland was the first place you thought of?
Well, Donna really didn't have much to do with it. I had an out-of-body experience at work; I imagined I was in Iceland.
Well that 's interesting! Does it look anything like you imagined?
No, I was expecting more green, more leprechauns, and more Guiness ...
That's Ireland you're thinking of ...
I never said my Out-of-body experiences were 20/20, now did I?

So where would you suggest I take Donna?
Well, from what you've told me about her, there's always the clubs around Rekjavik, and Akureyri, if you head up that way.
Yeah, but there are clubs in America, too. I kinda wanted to take her someplace unique to Iceland ...
You could take her up Mt. Hekla and throw her into the lava pit.
No, why does that suddenly sound like a good idea?

After a deep, satisfying conversation with 'Gyða', Jon knows exactly where to take Donna for an exciting time ....
We're going to the Blue Lagoon!!!
Sounds like one of your landscape-photography opportunities.
It's a spa ...
Well then what the hell are we waiting for?!

(You'll just have to imagine them wearing swim suits)
This vacation has really been an eye opener ... I'm not sure if Donna's 'The One' anymore ....
I mean, she's cute, and she can be funny and sweet and all that ... but we have so little in common: she'll never be happy with my desire to travel, and I'll never be content stuck in one place.
I wonder when a good time would be to break it to her that I think we should see other people ....
HOT DAMN! now THERE'S a stud!

Donna takes advantage of Jon's inner monologue;
Hey there!
Ah, another American!
Where are you from?
Los Angeles. I'm here on a buisness trip, and you?
I'm on a vacation with my, eh, brother!
Say, do you like to party?

 

by WingedCheetah
7-23-03
Yes ... that sounds good, I should tell her right away before I forget ....
Oy! You'ren that Jon fellow what that fair-headed fawn what talkin' bout, righ'?
You mean Donna?
She tol' me ta give you this message; she's off party'n wit some Americana CEO supah-star er sommat, didn' quite git the whole thing, says ta enjoy the trip, and ... yeah, that was it.
She left me?
Um ... yeh, there was that part, too, fergot 'bout that then, sorry.

Jon, left to his own devices:
Donna left me for a rich American CEO, I've got a week free in a foreign country all by myself ... what on earth do I do?
I could climb the mountains and glaciers and study geysirs and lava flows and maybe try a bite of putrid shark and -- I KNOW!
I'll wait on the sidewalk where I met Gyða and hopefully she'll walk by again!

Jon waited several hours without any sign of Gyða.
Well, it's been several hours and there's no sign of Gyða ...
So he hopped into his rental car and took the nearest road as far as he could go before running out of gas,
Oh, pick a background already!
and as luck would have it ...
What's that in the distance, Gyða?
Looks like someone ran out of petrol ....

Jon, confused and suffering from Highway Hypnosis, stumbled out of the car and over to the first living thing he could find ...
Whoa, you're a horse!
?
God you're small for a horse! Did I shrink or did you grow?!
Holy Shit ... maybe I passed through some scientific anamoly that increased the size of myself and the car and now everything I encounter won't be to scale and I'll have to adjust the rest of my life!
*SNORT*

 

by WingedCheetah
7-30-03
Wow ... I can't believe I didn't feel it. You'd think that if you passed through a rare scientific anamoly you'd feel it, right?
*chew chew*
How on earth am I going to be able to find a hotel with beds my size now? Clothing?
*GASP!* What if they don't have a BEER HELMUT in my size?!

Jon: denser than lead rod.
Jon?
Wow, you sound just like Gyða!
That's because I am Gyða ...
No you're not, you're a horse! Gyða happens to be the most beautiful woman I've ever met ....
Thanks, but what would Donna think?
Why don't you ask the rich American she just disappeard with ...

So, your girlfriend left you and you decided to just drive until the car stopped and ended up here?
That's right. Oh, and there was the three hours I stood on the sidewalk where we first met.
I'd like you to meet my bro-eh, *boyfriend*, Sven.
Nice try, Gyða, but I'm not bailing you out this time!
Sven, fardu i rassgat.
