10 days to the cruise!
9 days to the precruise party!
I hope everyone has been pickling your liver beforehand :)
'pickling' for me now is so wimpy....
however, I hail from over a mile above sea level. At sea lvl I can party down!
Remember Jen's DOUBLE long island? isn't that just a bucket of booze?
^^^aw man, do I ever?
Yeah, this week is freakin' draggin ass!!! I simply could not wait another second for this cruise.
Hey take it easy on a "Double Long Island" W'eve been damaging ourselves for a year now. Myself, Patti, Brian, Maria, Crono and crew are more than ready for the task though I coulda lost a few pounds. To make the week quicker we are hittin it hard this weekend for a primer. And in New York our clubs stay open til 4am, unlike some other states!!
I've been working ass off to pay for this cruise and I haven't had a drink in 3weeks!!!
I plan to spend the whole cruise making up for lost time.
Please just make sure my drunk ass does not fall overboard!
Worst of all.... beware of Crono's Camera.... he's evil...
Holy S*i*!!! Has it been a year already?????????
Seems like yesterday we were all posting here saying is it October yet.
Yeah, I was going to try to detox first but failed lol. Oh well I can still try to at least cleanse my palette for a week hehe...
9 days to the cruise!
8 days to the precruise party!
My drinking arm is nice and strong!
Z
Figures...
8 days to go and I get a freaking gout attack on my right foot. The pain...
Come on medication!!!
7 days to go till the cruise from today..
6 days till the precruise party.
Geez.. this is all the excitement I get? you should all be giddy!
Getting work straight for the week (tough to do)
We too have started our packink list. Don't want to forget anything, especially our PASSPORTS.
Grand,a arrives tomorrow to start getting used to baby Riel's routine and to allow us to prepare.
Olaf, the paralyed weiner dog is finally able to hooble around on all 4's, which is huge.
We are so stressed with life and preparations that we really are having a tough time getting excited...
yee haw
IS Riel going too? Heather is getting very clucky... and Jamie wants to see a baby! Now hoping the flights go well we have to change in chicago after Dublin flight so nicotine levels are going to be critical
DHJ
i started going through my "dry clean only" (re: the good stuff) clothes today to plan some cool outfits. ^^ clothes are EVERYWHERE.
gaaaaaaaaaaaaah! i can't believe it's almost upon us!!
I was trying everything on to make sure it looked good on me! LOL Now to get to ironing! Ack!
Hahahaha! Too funny D!! I am packing my steamer for the trip though! It was good to have last year!!!
Yes it is I think!! How many have you had this evening????
one or two, work in less than 7 hours god damn that time difference
I have not had any yet this evening! LOL You better get your butt to bed!!!
enjoy the evening-mine is over-goodnight from this side of the pond-see you this week.
Nope, the little dude is staying here with grandma.
Taking a 3-month-old baby on a party cruise does not = fun
HaHaha yes ok I remember now! 3 am bottle fades with time-- promise!
Cannot wait to see photos-and will of course be bringing tiny ireland shirt so he has a great rugby team to watch.
Sounds grand to me!
Of course he'll grow out of it in 2-weeks the way he is exploding...
i'm trying to prepare myself for eastern time.. damn waking up early. i feel my liver is sufficiently prepared however. now all i gotta do is pack, do my hair and rock the last minute checklist :D can't wait!!
I'm going nuts myself!
My body is torn up from overtraining, and I need a few days of do nothing but eat and relax time.
Mentally I've pretty much had it, as ever conceivable route to work is now backed up by traffic.
maybe if I don't have to drive for a week...
I can't wait to get some relaxing time with the other half and see all of you!
well you guys have for me I couldnt go this year and I makingplans to go next year please take lots of pictures them with everyone on here when the change comes about.
Don't know about all of you, but our bedrooms look like a costume shop exploded all over everything!
So much we could bring...so little luggage space. (have to leave some room for the absinthe!)
Very much looking forward to seeing you all again, though I was kinda hoping for a certain little goth (sorry - rivethead!) baby to make an appearance!
Tam
All hells breaking loose over here gettin ready for the cruise... can't wait!
We are slowly getting amped up.
The Goth Cruise baby may not be there in the flesh, but he will be there in spirit and in photographs.
Plus, mommy and daddy need a break from him as well as the rest of the world.
Tomorrow, we have a doggy doctor appointment (Olaf is able to walk again!!!) and then I have to have blood drawn, which is a nightmare since I have to be sedated to have blood drawn.
After that, two more days of work, pack, then get the hell over to Orlando to start having some real fun!!!
We had clothes, boots, boxes, papers and band equipment everywhere for awhile.
Got the hitch installed on my car today, so i can pull the trailer of band equipment. egads!
I got 1 big suitcase packed. Im a last minute packer.
I have tons of tickets, boxes... clothes.. and now.. the AC on my car is fritzed. oh fun of days..
Z
i'm sick.. i have this shitty cough.. and it isnt getting better.. maybe alcohol is the cure???
Score some antibiotics girl!!! Can't have ya sick for the cruise!!!! I am not sure if they have the pharmacies in those ports like they do in Belize and Mexico!!!! Z?????
~~All Genre~~
Im not sure... I dont remember seeing any earlier this year when I previewed the Itinerary. FI they did, it would be in St Maarten.
Z
Holy crap the amount of work I have to get done in the next three days! Grad school + Job + getting myself, husband and kiddo ready (she's staying with the in-laws) is making me a bit twitchy.
I've had that cough too... entering my fourth week now.
Although today seems to be the best day yet!
Looks like i'll shake it just in time for the Cruise!
Lulu
I have one more 12 hour shift left and I am done for 14 days :~D

I hope I am ready after that with only one more bag to pack.
See you all shortly,
Keith

Grandma has arrived and is preparing to watch little Gabriel during the trip.
I am starting to get amped up big time!!!!
Especially now that I have Apop's Soultaker pumping in the background!!!
Arrrrrgh!

I hope you all have fun on your cruise. I wish i would of heard about this site so i could of made plans to go
9 more hours of work to go!!!!
I am SO AMPED!!!
(of course it has a little to do with the tall Red Bull and coffee I had at dinner tonight...)
YES!!!! WOO HOO!!!!
oooh yah!
Just one more round of work/kung-fu before getting on the plane!
The airlines BETTER get you your luggage! I know that pretty much not only are all my fancy clothes in there, but pretty much everything I wear outside of class (and even a couple of those).
Losing my luggage would be....bad.
My luggage got MIA on the way home last year and they drove it out to me the next day!!!! LOL Thank goodness it was not on the way there! But it still sucked none the less!
1 day to precruise party
2 days to the cruise!
Precruise party: I am in room 832 if you need me. Also have my cell on.
I have tshirts, cruise, tickets, cd's.. etc.
I have to hand out the dinner coupons myself - so if you have the precruise party - please come see me to get yours!
Zaida
I'd frickin die if my luggage was lost and had to purchase CArnival Polo shirts for the week...... Ack!
5 hours of work to go, then home to begin the packing, cleaning, and preparations.
Can't wait!!!
I still can't believe its already here . . .
We fly out tomorrow and still have so much to do . :|
I need an extra day LoL
I don't think the reality of all this is really going to sink in until I actually get there. I'm like numb I need a vacation so bad lol...
Luggage is finally packed!
Wait a minute... Where Jenn??!!
Dammit! Gotta open the suitcase again!
Bedlam and I are at the airport.. I forgot my VR hoodie..I will freeze...
See you all soon!!!
Why would you freeze? It's humid and hot here. I've been in Florida (Naples) visiting my friends for a week. It's quite uncomfortable compared to the dry heat of California but freezing was no where remotely on my mind.
:P
:)
We are about ready to leave the building...
See ya'll in a few hours!!!
