Holy shit! 20 days until my vacation starts!!!

[BlondieK143]

Man, time flies! So, if you were going on a trip for 7 days to a new city and meeting new people, what are you essential packing items? :D

[ffm172]

1. sexy underwear?????

morning Blondie :hi:
how are you today?

[BlondieK143]

2. Check!

:D Lots and lots of it! hehe.

I'm great, how about yourself?

[ffm172]

3. doing ok

always somewhat sad on the surface. But I keep going. Almost done working for today. The morning was slow, but this afternoon have some customers here, one even from Cincinatti.

you are going to the Boston DU meeting, right?

[BlondieK143]

4. Hang in there.

:hug: It'll all work out okay! I promise!

And yes, I sure am! :D I'm so excited!

[ffm172]

5. you better tell me all the little side bits

:evilgrin: you better make me :blush: and let me run :hide:

you understand what I am saying? :)

[BlondieK143]

6. LOL!

Way to make use of the new smileys! Very impressive. Hopefully they'll be a few juicy details I'll share with you (about other DUers of course). We all know I'm innocent. :D

[ffm172]

8. of course we know you are innocent

*cough*

[BlondieK143]

10. No comment from the peanut gallery.

LOL. Wish you could make it! :(

[ffm172]

12. maybe another time

I try to save my vacation time this year so I can visit my bf when he goes to school next year in the States (another six months seperation).

But I bet it will be a lot of fun. Take pics and post them ... the embarrasing ones of course :) (gosh, I have a dirty mind :hide:)

[BlondieK143]

15. Sure will!

I'm sure I'll regret bringing a camera (or others having one). I tend to be a huge flirt when I'm drunk.

[ffm172]

17. LOL

now, I bet that is a something to see and witness. Who else is going to be there so I can tell them to tell me about you :)

[BlondieK143]

18. Oh man.

There's a huge list. Something tells me that sniffa will see that side of me... often. :D

[ffm172]

35. flirt like the devil

enjoy yourself, no regrets (at least not till afterward) ...

[BlondieK143]

38. Thanks!

You only live once, right? :P

[Brewman_Jax]

7. Where to?

for 7 days? Sounds like a blast!

[BlondieK143]

9. Boston.

MA better watch out! Blondie's on the prowl! :D

[Brewman_Jax]

14. Take a jacket

the nights are cool outside from the coastal winds.

The closest I've been was a month in winter (Feb.) in Newport, RI for a Navy school some years ago. Hated the place, hated winter, loved the seafood! :9

Just because you're on vacation doesn't change the fact that there's still...











No doughnut for you! :P


Don't forget to workout!

[BlondieK143]

16. LOL!

I haaaate seafood! won't be partaking in any of that! But I won't forget a jacket at all! :D

HA! It's a vacation, no working out allowed! :P

[Brewman_Jax]

27. Working out is mandatory

I workout on my vacation, so there!

What's the occasion for the Boston run? Maybe I should say, who, hmmm? :think:

[BlondieK143]

32. Well, I need a break.

And since there is a DU meet-up that weekend, it was a perfect opportunity! I've never met fellow DUers and it sure sounds like the Boston bunch knows how to party. Plus, there's a friend that I've gotten to know better that really makes the trip even more appealing.

And you have a much better work ethic than I do! :D lol

[Brewman_Jax]

43. Sounds like fun

and you'll have more time for Boston. Sorry you missed Atlanta, but sounds like you'll have a better time there.

When you're my age, working out gets VERY important. (Even tho' I get hit on by 20-something young ladies on occasion. ;) )

[Freebird12004]

11. Way Cool !!!

:party: and have lots of fun :bounce: :bounce:

[BlondieK143]

13. Thanks!

Any chance you'll be able to make it?

[Freebird12004]

29. I just might

I've put off making any plans until after I have all of the medical test on 4/4.

I'll drive over if do go and I want to hear that I'm "good to go" before I :party:

[BlondieK143]

33. AWESOME!

That would so rock! :D Here's to hoping everything is alright! :toast:

[Freebird12004]

41. I certainly have the time and I heard that Boston is wonderful.

I'll bring my little gas saver, the tracker and leave Frodie and the big truck at home.

[BlondieK143]

44. Yeah, that's a good idea.

I'm not so sure the hotel would be thrilled with Frodie :D Especially since he talks! How long would you want to stay?

[Freebird12004]

49. I always ask if pets are allowed.

Before I try to check in with a parrot, it's easier.

I did sneak her in once :blush: but it was too stressful for me. I was heading south and wanted to take the Chesapeake Bridge and Tunnel. I couldn't find any place along the way that would welcome us both :dilemma: so I made the best of it.

[Scooter24]

19. hmm...

Gay mans rule of thumb for packing:

<(number of vacation days) x (3)> x <5 outfits> = packing list

:)

Essentials? Hair dryer and chapstick! hehe...

So where are you heading to babe?

I just got back from a long weekend in Miami for the music conference. I packed for 2 weeks...lol My boyfriend is still pissed.

[BlondieK143]

21. Oh wow.

That's my entire closet! :D lol

How ya been sweetie??

Hair dryer - check. Lip gloss - check.
And I'm headed to Boston for the first time ever.

[Scooter24]

doing good :)

Boston eh?

Make sure you bring a NY Yankee jersey or cap. :D

[BlondieK143]

25. HA!

I plan on buying my Yankees suck shirt there. :D Can't stand 'em.

[sniffa]

20. fLip fLops

Lots and Lots of fLip fLops.

:loveya:

20 days - doh!

[BlondieK143]

23. Check.

:D Me without flip flops? Not normal.

:loveya:

Boy, you better be prepared. I'm even more crazy then I act here. :P

[Scooter24]

28. awww

looks like someone has a plan for when she gets to Boston. I think this occasion calls for a speech of some sort (birds and bees and maybe the "don't forget the car cover" speeches?) lol... :D

[BlondieK143]

34. HAHAHA!

I have no plans, just going with the flow. :D You should join us!

[Scooter24]

37. eh...

I'd be the sole gay man sticking out.

I could ask the ball and chain if he's up for it though. Worth a try :)

I don't have any flip flops either...so this would be a good excuse to get some :)

[BlondieK143]

39. There ya go!

I'm sure you two would have a blast! besides, you'd get to meet me. What could be better? ;)

Flip flops are awesome! Just don't let sniffa hear you talk about them! hehe

[Scooter24]

40. Oh?

Flop fetish? HAHA

[BlondieK143]

45. You'd have to ask him that.

:D I can't give away good stories. hehe

[GOPisEvil]

22. Holy crap! Less than a month now!

:bounce:

How exciting! I'm looking forward to living the high life for a weekend.

[BlondieK143]

24. Crazy, isn't it??

It came quickly! It'll be cool to meet you. You realize the stories from this are going to be endless, right? :D

[GOPisEvil]

26. What happens in Boston stays in Boston.

Unless it's really funny or embarrassing. Then all bets are off! :D

I need to buy a bigger memory card for my camera. :think:

[BlondieK143]

30. haha!

I'm beginning to think the whole camera thing is a very bad idea. :D

[GOPisEvil]

31. Nah...you'll want to relive the fun.

I might never get the chance to see these folks again, so it will be good to have pictures.

[BlondieK143]

36. Good point!

Do you have an early flight out on Monday?

[GOPisEvil]

42. 10:30am, I think.

I have to be at work Tuesday, so I had to get into town relatively early.

[BlondieK143]

46. Actually, I think that's when mine leaves.

I, unfortunately, have to layover in D.C. Kinda hoping the terrarists sit this weekend out. :D At least you'll be all relaxed for work again!

[GOPisEvil]

47. I fly through Minneapolis.

It's kind of a long way home, but it'll do. I've never been to Minnesota either. :D

[BlondieK143]

48. Well, it's all about firsts!

You know, you see so much during that 30 minutes trying to find your gate. :D

[GOPisEvil]

50. Maybe I'll have time to buy a souvenir of my stay.

Maybe a t-shirt:

"I spent less than an hour in the Minneapolis airport"
