The Halloween GTG

Re: The Halloween GTG

  • Wait a minute, why didn't all of you hoars go to the last Boston GTG when I could be there?

    My guess is someone in the throes of a new and "exciting" relationship that is far above such things as sisterhood and monogamy. 

    that's so highschoolish I can't even comprehend it.

    anyway, we need a FL2.0.  And it doesn't even have to be on the East Coast.  But it does have to be at least 1 year from now.  DEAL??  DEALLL????

    I was just looking at some of those pictures earlier this week and was reminded about how much damn fun I had that weekend.

  • FL 2.0 does need to happen on the westside, y'all.  I can't always be the only one jetlagged beyond all belief.

    Tasty, I want you to know that I am super sad that this will be my first GTG without you.  I don't know what to do with myself!  But I've decided there will be a Tasty Impersonation contest.  I'm working on my accent.

  • I didn't think it was about staying with the guy. I thought she wanted to avoid the inevitable questions about her [non]marriage/life and the appalled reactions from everyone.

  • I still think we need a mass New Orleans GTG. The South gets the shaft big time. We should do it in January when the rest of you are freezing your asses off.
    image
  • I would like to put in a bid for San Francisco-area next summer. Is that ok, Tasty? I know it's not quite a year but it's pretty hard for me to get away once school starts.

    Agreed, with one amendment above.

    I would be in for this. We could rent a house in wine country or on the Russian River.

  • Oooo, or maybe we could do one of the San Juan islands!

    I'd drop in on that if at all possible. J and I keep talking about a NOLA trip.

  • I assume by next summer I'll have a big BM stash in the freezer and be able to just pump and dump for a weekend?  I know H wouldn't mind.  He told me I should take Winged up on her Waters tickets for November and he'd be on top of childcare and I said, "Oh, are you going to magically grow breasts to feed our one-month old??"  Dork.

  • Fallin, I'm probably visiting my parents in SC in the spring. (Please don't ask me the town, all I know is that it's a suburb of Charlotte but in SC. )

    DO YOU HEAR THAT?!? FALLIN WILL TRAVEL FOR A N.O. GTG. I think that pretty much seals the deal, folks. 

    We'll make it March to work for HT.

  • I would like to put a Hogwarts/Orlando GTG on the table as well.  Also during the winter when it is less humid and gross.

  • We did discuss Disneyland previously.  So many places, so little time.

  • Maybe a five year plan is necessary.

    If I go that close to Seattle I'll have to keep it secret from my family.

    I think Evie will be too small for me to go away for more than a day or two in the winter, so I'm out for NOLA.

  • In five years most of us will be living in Portland.

    I am naive like Tasty, I believed Bloomie missed her flight.  Since I was the one that was supposed to pick her up at the airport, she was texting me all night.  Tried to get other flights, etc.   In hindsight though, she probably just ditched us.

  • SF gtg is perfect for me. We'll drive down, Dan can take Sean and go stay with his mom. She gets grandkid time and I don't even have to see her! Plus I'll have a car for people shuttling.

  • Isn't March Mardi Gras? Yeah, NO.

     

    Who am I kidding, I have zero desire to go to NOLA again anyway.

    It's March 8 next year, so GTG would be better in late Feb or mid/late March.  If you don't go, I'll send you giant shipping boxes filled with beads.

    Oh goody! They can go in the trash with all the other beads we get in the mail after Mardi Gras every year! :P

    Maybe she could invite everyone over for a sandwich.

  • Has your MIL ever asked what you do with all the beads?  I can't imagine someone sending me boxes of beads for no reason.  Does she expect you to display them throughout your house?

    BYOB. In a paper bag. Tell her it's juice.

    Well that's how HER house is decorated, so I assume so!

    Let's just have the GTG at your MIL's place. I bet she'd love us.
