How DID We Survive?- Page 154

I figured that would get a reaction.

DD - Shira comes with all the 'princess' that is required

Oh honey, a little dirtiness is not an insult at all. At least not for me.

Getting me killed? I take long walks... hikes... ski in winter... I think I might have you crying uncle.

WHAT?! (Yes, that gets a reaction as well...) (In response to the princess)

Well, I wonder what she's reacting to?

[DayDreamer]

Posted: 5/12/05 at 7:52pm

I get so confused sometimes...

Posted: 5/12/05 at 7:53pm

Don't MAKE me bring up the 'elitist' conversation

[shira467]

Posted: 5/12/05 at 7:54pm

Walking, okay. Skiing -- yay! I suck, but it's fun to watch me scream (just ask some friends of mine).

As for hiking...does it include mountains? And dirt? I could, like, break a nail...

Blech, I'm not THAT much of a princess. But I might consider hiking...

(Am I coming off as big of a brat as I feel? I guess I'm not such a woodsy gal...)

Ok... I'm #1 gullible man. I thought you LIKED to hike. We can skip the hiking. Yes... hiking would include dirt in the mountains. And streams. And waterwalls. But we can also just drive to the top of the mountain instead of hiking.

Thinking Rainier is awesome in the summer... as is Mt. St. Helen's. And they just reopened Johnston Observatory. (it was closed due to the recent eruptions)

'Elitist' conversation?

[shira467]

Posted: 5/12/05 at 7:58pm

I'll bring my sneakers anyway, an observatory sounds facinating.

I'm a big fan on conversation, elitist and no. DG, you'll brief him on me, right?

Posted: 5/12/05 at 7:58pm

DD - now don't tempt me, I'm consciously avoiding dragging that up

Shira would be very good on a long walk - down a street with lots of good shopping!

[DayDreamer]

Posted: 5/12/05 at 8:00pm

Excellent shopping here... at least an entire afternoon at Pike Place buying the ingredients for a totally fab dinner... and flowers...

*innocently* Tempting you what?

[shira467]

Posted: 5/12/05 at 8:00pm

I'm really not that big of a shopper...I go through phases!

Posted: 5/12/05 at 8:02pm

OMG, Shira - now you're just being contrary! I like it

DD - the TRUTH is that Shira is completely laid back and willing to do most anything if it sounds fun and enjoyable - and she can even have interesting and invigorating conversation while you're doing it!

[DayDreamer]

Posted: 5/12/05 at 8:03pm

Ok... we'll wait 'til you get here, find out which phase you're currently in, and we'll take it from there. Believe me... I can do the outdoorsy stuff (kayaking, hiking, etc.), sight seeing thing, shopping, theater, chilling by the pool... you name it, I'm game. Just don't ask me to jump off a plane with you. I draw the line at jumping off planes.

Posted: 5/12/05 at 8:07pm

Wow, DD - forget Shira, I'M coming up for a visit!

[DayDreamer]

Posted: 5/12/05 at 8:09pm

Come on over!

Posted: 5/12/05 at 8:12pm

You have NO idea how tempting it sounds - especially when we have the heighth of the summer heat here. But we would HAVE to go up to Victoria and then bike around the island a little bit.

[DayDreamer]

Posted: 5/12/05 at 8:15pm

Promise? I love Victoria... haven't been in a couple of years. And this is prolly my last summer in Seattle... I would love for it to go out with a bang!

Posted: 5/12/05 at 8:18pm

Well, DD, Robert IS going to be busy all summer doing the Shakespeare Festival I've got a few things already lined up, but August is still pretty open!

Posted: 5/12/05 at 8:19pm

Where did SHIRA go - I KNOW I didn't scare her off - she doesn't scare easily!

[shira467]

Posted: 5/12/05 at 8:21pm

I'm here, I'm here, sheesh -- I had to talk to people, sorry!

DG, if you came up when I came up...oh, the fun we could have! (but you'd have to get a hotel, as I've taken the couch!)

August in NYC is magnificent.

[shira467]

Posted: 5/12/05 at 8:23pm

I'll hopefully be there in late August...

Posted: 5/12/05 at 8:23pm

Boobs - are you NUTS?!?!? I've BEEN there in August, and the only place I'd rather NOT be is either Florida or Houston!

YOU need to meet us in the Northwest in August - now THAT is beautiful

[shira467]

Posted: 5/12/05 at 8:24pm

Well, I was thinking that too but didn't want to insult Boobs.
