Spring break
Friday, April 4, 2008
While I’m off over here …
… y’all try to stay out of trouble in my absence, ‘kay?
We are not taking a laptop with us, which means I will be OFFLINE (*sob*) for 10 days. It’s possible I’ll pop into an internet cafe and do a quick post, but don’t count on it. A vacation is for experiencing new things, not surfing the ‘Net and checking emails.
Make sure you read Eco Women: Protectors of the Planet while I’m gone, starting today — Recycla talks about easy eco travel. I’m serious. I want you to read Eco Women. Because I busted my big white ass butt to get my posts written in advance, so that Melissa can post for me in my absence. So a little appreciation for that hard labor on my part, please. Plus, I don’t want to come home and find out that you’re all driving Hummers and leaving all your lights on all the time, just because I left the country.
Somewhere around the 10th or 11th, you might want to check in with Guider. I’m not trying to tell her what to post, but if she’s a good friend, she’ll at least mention our first-ever meeting on her blog, at least just so that my mother will know that my family is alive and well in a far-off country. (The infamous Grandma A$s doesn’t like it when her loved ones get on airplanes…)
(Don’t worry Mom. We probably won’t die in a plane crash. Probably.)
We get home on the 14th. If I’m not dead tired from the jet lag, I’ll post that night. More likely, I’ll wake up at 4 a.m. the next day and THEN I’ll post, because east-to-west jet lag is the absolute worst for me.
So long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, good bye!

Well I might post, but I might not. You can’t tell me what to post, you are not the boss of me. Yeah alright, I’ll post within seconds of you leaving, how’s that sound?

Oh man, I just picture us all buying SUVs and leaving lights on and generally wreaking planetary havoc in your absence… We’ll be good. Bon voyage!
