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! 14271. Ms. No - 3/22/2005 5:16:21 PM 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. 14272. arkymalarky - 3/22/2005 8:46:31 PM 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.... 14275. Ms. No - 3/22/2005 10:59:05 PM yeah, it could end up like that, but I'll be there with 14 family members and we play a lot of cards and there will be manic children to toss in the pool so I'm thinking (hoping really) that I'll be okay.
It's the only thing I might actually overpack. I've got 6 unread books at the house right now if I can manage to keep my mitts off them until I leave.
Of course there's the 6 hour plane flight to get through. 14276. Ms. No - 3/22/2005 11:00:21 PM If only two or three of the books I've got on order would come in before I leave town then I'd breathe easy. 14277. alistairConnor - 3/22/2005 11:03:02 PM Ah yes ... beach... 14 family members ... manic children to toss in the pool ... been there.
But the flight was more like 36 hours.
Three weeks. Two books, I think. 14278. Macnas - 3/22/2005 11:05:41 PM Two books in three weeks?
You slo-bo. 14279. Ms. No - 3/22/2005 11:15:51 PM Yes, but it was War & Peace and the Oxford English Dictionary...unabridged. 14280. Macnas - 3/23/2005 12:02:36 AM War and Peace...unabridged....how about thrown off a bridge? 14281. Macnas - 3/23/2005 12:03:36 AM Now I must go home.
I'm taking a break of a few days over Easter, and heading to Galway. See yez all next week. 14282. Ms. No - 3/23/2005 12:11:50 AM Have a good trip, Mac! 14283. jexster - 3/23/2005 8:13:00 PM What Kind of Dog RU?
Hofewart...but I am a cat person 14284. Magoseph - 3/23/2005 8:35:25 PM French poodle, what a surprise!
