Sunshine, Bug Spray and Bears...

[wednes]

Well, I wouldn't have beleived it myself. But all signs point to the fact that I, the most prolific homebody in the modern age, am actually taking a vacation away from my home for over an entire week. I honestly can't recall the last time i was away from my home for so long...really.

I went to Florida for 6 days once in 1996, then before that I went to Woodstock '94, which took about 6 days. So I guess the longest I've been away from home before that was um...college. Even when I went away to the nut house, that was only for a week. So this should be a fun trip, staying in a cabin with electricity and a DVD player and microwave. I imagine we'll be doing without air conditioning, but it hasn't really been that hot. H is giving me some Deep Woods OFF which I'll use unless someone has a better reccomends. Normally I'd use something all natural, but I'll douse myself in poison before I let myself get eaten alive by blood sucking mosquitos. I am more susceptable than most to bug bites, and I am a whiny bitch when covered with itchy bites.

Anyway, we're going to go to a bear sanctuary. That will no doubt be the shizznizzle! So I am excited about that. I'm leaving on Friday and coming back Labor day Monday (which I imagine will be a horrible drive, luckily I'll be sleeping thru it) just in time to see The Return of Ken Jennings on Jeopardy! That reminds me, I have to send him an envelope to get my autograph!!!

One night stand indeed! She'll be back...

In other news, it seems that they still have not recovered The Scream. So sad, stealing great art. Tomorrow we are going to see Manchurian Candidate. Wednesday night I have a midnight shift at the shelter, hopefully that will go well and not make me horribly depressed.

What's a good thing to bring camping in case I get bored?

What's a good thing to bring camping in case I get bored?

Batteries for the portable CD player. Amusing DVDs. Your imagination.

Imagination is already packed, as i hope being outside will inspire me to write some good zombie fic.

Hmmm...I druther be outside with a zombie than inside with a zombie...more places to run to.

In theory yes. In real life, running is not my strong suit. i like the solid oak door with the dead-bolt lock.

Ahhh..you trust walls more than I do. (though I trust ceilings even less...a personal quirk)

Yeah well, after tha tone scene in Aliens...I can see your point.

Well...and after having the ceiling fall in on me while I was sleeping, once. It was a memorable incident.

Zoinks!

Have fun! Kill those damn mosquitos, all of them!

if you're into photography, a camera always seems to keep me entertained

[wednes.livejournal.com]

Stupidly, I hadn't even thought of borrowing H's cool new digi camera.

[madush69.livejournal.com]

Game Boy with Tetris, Frogger, Ms. Pac, and Sims.

yay vacation!! are you gonna bring a camera to take pictures of the bears?

[wednes.livejournal.com]

If H lets me bring his I will, otherwise, I'm sure K and N will birng thiers. They bring it pretty much everywhere in case their kid does something cute.

I'm bringing lots of books, games, my cd player with a few cd's, my GBA, hopefully a metal detector, and some bottle rockets to launch into the lake. And, yes this will probably be a good place for you to get instaration for your stories. It is pitch black at night where we'll be. The only light outside will be from the campfire and the billions of stars. All you can hear is the howling of dogs and the snap of burning logs...and N coughing. It is a good horor setting. You'll love it!

Are you bringing your GBA charger? If so, I won't bother to pack mine. I was also thinking about bringing my Queasy bake oven if there's room, because that might be fun.

I'm pretty stoked.
