Terri... I'll spend the day w/you at the spa!! I think I'll get one of each treat that they offer... definitely mani/pedi & massage... it'll be my (crossing-my-fingers) 100 lbs lost treat to myself!!

Well ladies, it does my heart good to see everyone having fun on the 'ol trip planning thread again! Yay! I am DEFINITELY going!! Count me in! I need a roomie!!! I am a NONSMOKER, SNORE-ER (I think) who will indulge in talking, drinking, talking, slots, talking, spa treatments (the more, the better!), eating, aqua-aerobics in the pool (oh yeah, baby, I'm still teachin' it!), maybe Graceland (have already done that & once was enough but maybe again w/the Vi's... it's kinda creepy + all those die-hard Elvis fans take it all way too seriously, especially when you get to the end & the graves & they're all crying & everything... but it is Americana), did I mention talking & drinking?... Oh man, I missed my chance to "sleep w/a lesbian!" That darn Judy! Couldn't we SHARE the lesbian, Judy?? :smile:

Tunica wins & Laura is now in charge, as she's the gal w/the connections! I now turn my trip organizing crown over to Laura...

Are you kidding me?? You took what I wrote the COMPLETELY wrong way!! I was not writing it to JUST YOU! Have you really not gotten to "know" me over the past year? Am I routinely rude?? I was so stunned by what YOU wrote, Tracy, that I actually got light-headed & thought I was going to pass out! Wow! How did this get to this point?? It's ridiculous!

No... it is not safe to assume any such thing. I suggest not worrying about other people's "votes"... just your own. Make your decision for YOU.

You all are *NOT* going to believe this!! It's a 3-way TIE!!! 3 votes for Spash Mtn. 3 votes for the $250 deals 3 votes for Tunica Only 1 person didn't vote... so do we make her the tie-breaker, or is someone not "married" to their vote & want to change it?? WHY IS THIS SO DIFFICULT???????

Judy!! You're the incredible shrinking woman!! Amazing! Way to go!! & the suit looks great -- bring it with you to... where?????

Tracy, I think I posted some over on the other thread... or you can click on the link in the other thread (it's in Ms. Jen's post on page 3 (I think) & check it out yourself. Also, keep in mind that we've discovered that the actual price may be more than $250 if we go w/a nicer hotel... Laura's Tunica idea is sounding appealing because she can get us comp (= FREE) rooms/suites!! She's a high roller, baby!!!

So long as it stays a MENTAL picture, Judy!! ... Hey?! Where did all the smilies go?? There used to be gobs more "non-nanners humping" ones! Hmmmmmmmmm... Judy, did you have something to do with THIS, too??

My MIL e-mailed me this funny... A woman came home, screeching her car into the driveway, and ran into the house. She slammed the door and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Honey, pack your bags. I won the lottery!" The husband said, "Oh my Goodness! What should I pack, beach stuff or mountain stuff?'' "Doesn't matter," she said. "Just get the hell out." tickled my funny bone for some reason...

Yes, Jen, you voted!

Jane... I feel your Ebay pain... I just finished packing up 12 packages to take over to the PO now! Phew!

This is the trip list so far... have I missed anyone?? Just posting here so we don't miss anyone!! (Thanks, Terri!) 1. me 2. Jennifur 3. Terridoodle 4. Judy 5. Kat 6. Pam 7. TracyK 8. Laura 9. Jane 10. Haydee

Oh no she hasn't, Pam... I'm still here! :eek:

That should say "...you & I are running this race together." duh.

Wow, Laura! A famous designer in our midst!! Definitely let us know when & where to watch & cheer you on!! Very cool!! Congrats on the 240s, too!! You & are are running this race together!!! Love your tips, too!!!

"I might be wrong, but when I got to the end of looking, it said since I was booking as a single, that I had to pay full price for the hotel room. that boosted it up into the 3-4 hundred dollar range. And more if we wanted to upscale the hotel. Granted, still a good price.." -- Judy I just spent the past 1/2 hour clicking away on the $250 deals & it seems that Judy is right... if you want higher than a 3-star hotel or a "resort", then the price is going to be higher... I know price is an issue for some folks & not for others, so just wanted to make that clear...

TGIF Vi's!~~ Yay, Pam, on making good choices!! See?? You CAN do it! & the scale rewarded you!! TracyK... I agree w/you EXCEPT that, when I haven't had the "real" thing in awhile, then the low-fat ice cream is actually ok & does the job! Weird, I know, but... whatever works! :eek: Terri... On this journey we all ebb & flow... give & take... don't fret about having some "take" time... it's all good! Judy... I'll have to go back & check my records to see if you voted or not... maybe you whacked your head on the wall while "swinging" & it caused temporary amnesia? Suzie... fajitas!! mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm! Janie... YAY! so glad you're coming on the trip to... ??? Everyone... make it a great day!

ATTENTION!: Voting will close tonight at 11:59pm!! You can choose between Deep Creek, a "surprise" location from the $250 travel site, or Tunica. PLEASE VOTE! It isn't fair to just say "wherever"... pick one! Vote early, vote often! (well, some of you already have "often" covered! :eek: you know who you are!!)

"...and then since I was crying I ate a piece of garlic bread..." -- Tracy, this is the craziest phrase I've read in a long time (well, at least since the "swing" discussions!)! Sorry you're having a bad eve... Kat... glad to read that the trip is going well so far... prayers for your dad! Just got back from dd's band concert... too cute... I love elementary school programs! Time to get into my jammies & veg... g'nite!
