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!

Have a wonderful time!
(I’m more jealous than I usually admit!)
Have a great trip!
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?
Have a great time!
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!
Adios!
Have a great trip! I can’t wait to hear about all the adventures and see all the pics that I KNOW you will have and take!
Bon voyage!
Safe and happy travels to you and the fam. Have the most wonderful of times!!! Kiss the queen for me.
Happy traveling!
I can’t wait to hear all about it!
This will be such a wonderful trip!!! have a blast!
Have a great time!
Well, I already got into trouble…sorry. But I’m Canadian and don’t know any better.
Have fun and stay away from the internet!!
Off to go to buy some old lightbulbs and turn up the heat.
Wow, no internet for ten days? I’m curious to see how it goes.
I’m so delighted for you and your family. This will be a great trip and I can’t wait to hear all about it.
If anyone wants to know how Jen is, I blogged about her today: http://halfbakedbrownieguider.blogspot.com/2008/04/when-jen-met-jen-scoop.html
Wow, London actually looks rather lovely in that photo!
Amazing what photoshop can do!!!
Hope you have a fabulous time in the city of my birth – shame I didn’t know where you were going I would have sent you a list a great places of the beaten track!
Looking forward to the debrief!
