Here today...gone to Maui

The hubby and I are off to Maui tomorrow, so my postings will be nonexistent for the next 8 days. I would apologize except that no one truly gives a you-know-what. There are so many fabulous writers and blogs out there, y'all be fine without me.

Take care.

I'm going to be swimming with turtles. I do love these creatures.

I snapped this from our boat last year. 


Ke Akua pu a hui hou!

I know it sounds terribly bitchy of me to complain, but I will miss the last presidential debate since we'll be flying at that time. I missed the Ryan/Biden debate because I was on a plane from Portland to Sacramento. How lucky can one person get? Only four debates, and I miss two of them.

I'm special. And not in a good way.

    Oh, I wouldn't say that. Nope, definitely not.

    1. If Rachel DOES live-blog this, you guys have to be there. Party without me! Dance on table tops and swing from the light fixtures.

      Romney is going to finish this thing on Monday.

  3. Have fun! The turtles look cool. Is it sort of like swimming with rays? Though you don't have to worry about their tails.

    Given how much will be written about the debate, and how many clips will be available on line, I don't think I'd worry. And it means you don't have to listen to Ø whine anymore than you can stand at any one time! (I'd call that a big plus.)

    We'll be here when you get back.

    1. I have never even SEEN a ray. But the turtles are very gentle and sweet and slow moving, they just cruise along, stopping to eat coral every so often. They keep an eye on you and often will try to engage you. I think they like the company. Probably figure the tiger shark will get you first. HAHAHAHA!

  4. Oh darlin. That turtle looks pretty and I want to swim with one, too!

    I emailed you about my Master Plan to stay awake for the debate tonight because I refuse to miss THREE out of four. Rargh!

    I'm gonna live-blog that fucker.

  5. Thanks, y'all!

    Keep the fires burning.

    And Rachel -- YOU MUST LIVE-BLOG THE DEBATE! PARTY AT RACHEL'S!!! That way, when I get to the hotel, I can fire up the iPad and "go visit" your place. I'll have missed the party, but I can read all about it and I won't have to really miss out on all you guys and your take on the whole thing.

    DO IT!

    It's INCONCEIVABLE that you wouldn't. Especially with your brilliant Master Plan. It -- could -- WORK!

    1. Yes indeed. Been a quart low on snarkily gravitasy Buttercupian wisdom all week. I could burn out a bearing like that you know. Just lucky that Rachel's been back so I could be a pest over there.
