Saturday 9: Vacation
17 May 2014
Link up here if you want, I'm not pushy.
I have never been water skiing, but it's totes on my bucket list!
2) Do you have 2014 vacation plans?
2) Do you have 2014 vacation plans?
Next week, in fact! We'll be in Orlando from Monday-Friday, and the kids are stoked that it's for a "real" vacation and not just a mystery shop. Me too - though I must confess, I'm stocking up on shops to do whilst there.
3) Do you have a passport?
3) Do you have a passport?
Yep, but it's expired. When we moved to Guam in 2002, we had to get them in case we needed medical air transport to Japan. Chloë has one, too, but she was a year old then and, well, she no longer looks like that!
4) If you took a 7-night cruise, could you completely unplug -- no phone calls, no texts, no internet?

I love cruises, having been on 5 or so. I can't wait 'til my next one. What was the question? Oh. Yeah. I think so, though I would certainly be tempted. Cruising is so all-encompassing, though, that I can manage.
5) Do you own a travel alarm clock?
I don't even own a real alarm clock. Well, that's not entirely true; I have them, I just don't use them!
6) Though the Go-Goes broke up in 1985, they frequently reunite for live performances. What's the last concert you attended?

Hmm. It's been a while. I think the last one was several years ago at the Norfolk Tides stadium in Virginia: we saw John Mellencamp, Bob Dylan and Willie Nelson. It was pretty awesome, as you might expect, but my favorite act was The Wiyos, who opened. I've requested them for my 40th birthday, and Wayne Wiyo said YES!!!
7) Their first hit was "Our Lips Are Sealed." Can you be trusted with a secret?
Not really. Yes. Maybe. I don't know?
8) In 1982, when this song was popular, the comedy Tootsie was in theaters. What movie makes you laugh?

I love Tootsie!!What a fun movie. I also love The Toy, with Richard Pryor and Jackie Gleason. Recently, I debated getting a copy of it for my kids, but I think they're still too young for it, though I watched it when I was younger than they are. Thoughts??
9) Sam is chewing on a Tums as she composes these questions. What's the last over-the-counter medication that you took?
A couple Excedrin the other day when I had a crappy migraine all damn day. I hate my Rx for migraines, so I avoid it until absolutely necessary. Thankfully, the Excedrin actually worked.
