Get a grip, Kuligin.

You've done this before and the result is always the same. The Cafe while not solely reserved for light-hearted banter is still not the appropriate place to come and willy-nilly begin insulting people for imagined slights in other threads. The Inferno is the place to do that.

wabbit--

I've sent you an email to the webwabbit address.

14261. arkymalarky - 3/22/2005 1:26:39 AM

Wow, congrats again 3i3b!

(I meant on the engagement, not the problem with the car, though I'm sure that's a relief too)

I learned to pack light from spending weeks at a time in CO. A nice lady in Dillards Department store (customer, not employee) told me the underwear tip before we went to Europe a few years ago, and another friend told me about rolling clothes, which was VERY helpful.

I'm going to a three-day conference in WV in a couple of weeks, and it says casual throughout. Not sure what I'll pack yet, but it should be pretty easy to get ready for.

Judith, I wish you could see my hair. It looks VERY different from yesterday when y'all left. It's much better and will be easy to keep up with. About shoulder length, but no frizz or waves now. Of course I'll have to see what it looks like tomorrow, but it's an improvement no matter what.

When did you say your beach trip was, MsNo?

14264. wabbit - 3/22/2005 2:01:40 AM

Gotcha!

May the engagement outlast the funding. And the lease. And the car...

14268. thoughtful - 3/22/2005 1:59:04 PM

Congrats on the engagement isbs!

14269. iiibbb - 3/22/2005 2:18:26 PM

Thanks everyone...

14270. Ms. No - 3/22/2005 5:03:18 PM

Can't congratulate you enough iiibbb. This is wonderful news!

Arx,

I'm leaving this Saturday and won't be back 'til the following Saturday.

I was just talking with my brother about the trip and realizing that I haven't taken a beach vacation since the last time I went with my family more than 10 years ago.

Maybe it's because I live in L.A., but I just don't take beach vacations anymore. I like to go to cities or other countries or to visit specific people. Living where I do I can be at the beach in 30-40 minutes, in the mountains in 2hrs or desert in the same amount of time. I don't really take advantage of those things like I should, but they're still there.

What I really want to do is drive up to see Hearst Castle and camp-out near Big Sur. That's a good weekend trip. I've camped there before, but I skipped Hearst Castle because it would have been a stop on the way home from a 3-day camping trip with my college girlfriends and believe me, after one of our trips all anyone wants to do is get home to a shower and a real bed.

A week at the beach sounds like just the ticket.

I had a Keoni biscuit for breakfast today, and had one for supper last night.

I have three more breakfasts' worth. Yum.

14273. Ms. No - 3/22/2005 10:38:22 PM

Definitely worth rationing!

I'm rationing books at the moment hoping I'll have enough to get me through the vacation. I've got a couple on Order from Barnes and Noble but they may not come in time, ditto some from Amazon.

I figure as long as I've got four or five I should be okay.

14274. Macnas - 3/22/2005 10:40:58 PM

Hmm I sometimes think that too, then a few days later it's 2.30 a.m. and I'm finishing the last book....
