I'm Canadian......eh?
Laurie and I were sitting around Richard's place (sober, of course) when the phone rang and it was Gini. R & G spoke for a minute or two then he passed the phone to me. I got on and started to slur my words and pretended we were all tanked up. R & L were rolling on the floor with laughter and Gini was howling as well.
then I woke up..........
A premonition??
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

Testing the waters...
Hopefully i won't be considered such a newbie by July. so.... Two words... ROAD TRIP!! I'll be tagging along with Laura. It'll be a few days after my b'day, so I'll just call it a belated b'day gift to myself! It'll be great to meet some new people. =)

Remember, whatever is planned as food for your BBQ better be passed onto Miss Meow and I!!
We are having a BBQ the same day in your honour ..........

What great news........more people are coming. Tucson is just about eight hours drive to L.A. unless you wear "heavy shoes" then it is six or seven. Do not try to get here on a Friday though, you will hate it. (weekend/going home traffic).
Heinz57 - come on, live up to your name, you must have 47 more posts before July. You have ten at my last look.
This is a really fancy barbecue you know..........you have to wear your clean jeans and a better T-shirt. (maybe it is the other way around, I forget).
Seriously, I am glad that more people will be able to make it this year.........last year a bunch of people arrived - all total strangers to me.........but when they left, they were all good friends.
Name tags, gosh, we probably need name tags.
Captain and Miss Meow, please don't make me have vegemite on my menu, please!!
It is a guaranteed good time, nobody shuts up for a minute and why should we? Just be sure to bring lots of pictures of your furkids, skinkids and good sense of humor!

hee hee, SURE, tell EVERYONE I'm not a morning person!!!Originally posted by gini
Now, Kelly, I love you dearly, but werent' you the one that told me you would be at my house at 8AM? last year? I was up at the crack of dawn - showered - clean - ready and waiting ..........and the phone rang - what time was that???? Oh, you all slept in huh? And I was up and waiting at 8AM for a bunch of people that I had never met before............(I think I will sleep at your house)
or better yet - maybe you all should all come and sleep at mine.
Actually, I think I was the first one awake...NOT that my cats had anything to do with that or anything.
RE: other than BBQ activities
I was thinking that would be reserved for another day if people were staying in the area longer. I agree, no one can just come for the day of the BBQ. Gotta make this a drawn out bash!!!!
Food? Did somebody say food? You know, I JUST got to see all the pictures Wolflady took of our 1st Annual BBQ on Saturday and there I am, in a towel, wet hair, no makeup (looking ever so lovely) making fruit kabobs for us! I'm up for that again if anyone would like it? I also make pretty good tarts and haven't made any in a while.
Hotdogs and chicken...Mmmmmmm!!!! Cat in the Tree sparkling wine and frambrois sounds yummy, even I can just have two or three sips. YUMMY! Is it July yet?????
An offer to stay at Gini's? With Gini AND three orangies??? Gosh, that sounds like heaven on earth!!
...RIP, our sweet Gini...

It really breaks my heart to say that I wont be able to make it. I just realized today that my Dad's 80th birthday is on July 24th. (I guess that makes me a bad daughter for not realizing until now that its the same day as the BBQ). So of course my place is here.
I really hope someday to be able to meet all of you, but now it looks like it just wasn't meant to be. I will be thinking of all of you. Drink a slushy for me.

That's too bad Catland, but family does come first. There's always next year and we'll make sure it's not on July 24th.

Slick, every time I see your quote under your name I have to stop and laugh.
Scotty is the nickname I have given to my Toyota Highlander.
It never occurred to me that he could "beam me up" anywhere - but you never know, do you?
July - only three plus months away - maybe this year you will be able to see Annie AND EMMA. I can't promise though, but I am working on her. At least now she doesn't spend most of her time under the bed.
If there is chicken around - it is a given that Rascal will be in everyone's lap!
