Road Trip - Short Version

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Cam and I are on our way out the door for our preparatory road trip for the summer - a short drive to South Bend Indiana. We'll be spending a long weekend with Talisman and her family. We try to make this trip at least once every two months or so and it's always a great time. The bonus this trip is that I get to spend my birthday weekend with someone who asked me what kind of cake I wanted AND, when I mentioned fish tacos, told me she'd make sure I got them before I left! It doesn't get much better than that!

Cam has been given temporary custody of his bike for this trip - a privilege surprisingly granted by husband. The details of the custody agreement include
that he wear his helmet at ALL times or the bike will be confiscated for the summer.

I upgraded our hotel reservation from our standard economy hotel to one that is a bit nicer. It's my birthday weekend, I deserve it!

One more thing, thanks for all of the birthday wishes yesterday! My cyber birthday was the best birthday I think I've ever had! A special thanks to Matt-Man, Knight and Os (and anyone else I might have missed) who gave me a special shout out on their own blogs. Don't know why, but it still surprises me when I find a link to my silly little cyber world in the post of a fellow blogger. All y'all are the best!

I've got to ask Tali to smooch you for me!

Enjoy the Danapalooza weekend!

Have a wonderful time! Fish tacos have a totally different meaning in the lesbian world! LOL

So, what kind of cake DO you want?

I'm a big believer in upgrading hotel rooms to something nicer. You may not spend much time in the room, but when you are there it should be comfy. It's probably all those nights I spent in Motel 6's back in the day that has resulted in this new belief.

Have fun on your trip!

RLL - No they don't. *grin*

I'm sure Dana is going to do everything in her power to get a taste of Tali's fish taco.

Have a fun weekend, Dana! Give Tali a grope for me, and I want preview privileges to any potential HNT pictures taken during your visit. *wink*

*smooches*

Dana said...

RD, thanks!

Anndi, No need to ask *wink*

RLL, fish tacos might have a different meaning here too!

Dana said...

Jay, I'm pretty excited about this. I usually don't splurge on myself but felt the need to this weekend.

Boo(duh), I already had my first taste of fish taco and we've only been here 3 hours *wink*

Have a nice trip. South Bend? We almost went down to a casino sort of close to there...

Jeff B said...

Tali's tacos? Why do I think there'll be some stories we hear about and a few that we don't?

Enjoy...like I have to tell you that.

Have a safe trip. OK?

You may have noticed that my blog has been inaccessible for 3 days now. I’ve reported it to blogger 7 times in 3 different ways: no response or action from Blogger thus far. There is at least one other blogger receiving the same error code, which I can’t find a definition for, even though I’ve searched blogger and the net.

If you would be willing to help by adding to the number of folks reporting the problem to Blogger, email me and I’ll send you the reporting details. OK?

For your birthday you deserve the best. Not just for your birthday.
I'm sure she'll have some culinary surprises for you.

In Colorado they thought fish tacos was a seafood dish.

Dammit. RLL beat me to what I was gonna say. I love it when she beats me. Hope you guys are havin' fun. Cheers!!

Knight said...

Mmmm... Fish Tacos and Cake? You are having the best birthday weekend imaginable.

tt said...

Ummm...just what is a fish taco anyway? SEriously.
Good for yo with the upgrade. You only go around once right?? Well, only once that we remember anyway. ;)

cat said...

Dana, next time you come to South Bend, send me a e-mail.....I only live a hour and half from there.

I would love to meet you in person, or better then that you and your son can come to our city and see there what all there is to see here.

Would love it!

God I hate that I missed your b-day! I've gone from here for about a week.

I hope you had a wonderful time, and that Cam learned his lesson!
