Emergency Daily Entertainment Hologram

[turned_captain]

Damn, it's gorgeous out. And I'm stuck inside with a deadline to hammer out a paper for this afternoon. Oh well.

So, inspired by the only sunny day London's likely to get this year:
Going somewhere nice on your holidays this year?


Alternatively - picspam me with pictures of yourself and other muns!

- Debi, who's now worried no one'll know who she is.

ETA: going to get cat. Talk amongst yourselves!

Nope. We never go anywhere nice, sadly.

Although I do have a rising urge to run away to Morocco and drool over their gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous architecture.

[innerbrat]

Why Morocco, specifically?

[rowanberries.livejournal.com]

Cornwall.

But really, anywhere I don't have to write any more essays will do me fine. *Reads history of medicine book*

I think you've seen all my pictures, right? I stuck them all on millipics.

[innerbrat]

Probably. I'd go look, but that means figuring out the password and logging through the browser interface, and I don't wanna.

Cornwall's nice though. Y'know, if you like granite.

[bigfluffball.livejournal.com]

I'm taking the Guides camping. Twice :D

[innerbrat]

That's cool. I've just recently remembered how much I miss guides.

[calluna]

I am going here!

It's been 5 years since my last (and first) visit there, and NOTHING is going to stop me from going back this year. Not even outrageous gas prices! :|

[innerbrat]

ooooh, looks nice!

[sir-gareth.livejournal.com]

I am going to London, Cambridge and North Yorkshire, in mid-August.

There will be Debi-age.

If I can ever get an appointment at the Toronto US Consulate to get a new stamp in my passport. I may have to fly to Calgary to get it instead. And that would mean no Raj :(

[innerbrat]

I've been to Calgary! There are very nice inside-of-offices there.

[sdelmonte]

I will be lucky if I can get my boss to give me a week off. Unfortunately, her mother needs major surgery and that means I have to help cover for her in the office during the recovery period. I'll get to take a few long weekends, but it seems like any real travel is out.

Not that we mind as we tend to do all our travels to cons anyway.

[innerbrat]

Eeep! I hope she's OK (your boss and her mum)

[canadabear.livejournal.com]

I am possibly going to New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island in August for the first time in my life. Because I, apparently, have a billion relatives over there I've never met.

[calluna]

DUDE PEI IS RIGHT ACROSS FROM WHERE I'LL BE IN CAPE BRETON :O

You are going to love it. The Maritimes are so, so gorgeous.

[timjr.livejournal.com]

I don't really get holidays this year...

But I'm going to Dragon*Con!

[prix-etoile.livejournal.com]

me toooo~

[buongiornodaisy.livejournal.com]

IDK! I want to, though.

[aisforamy]

We usually take the kids to California for a few days, but money is tight, so we probably won't hit any of the major amusement parks, and just spend a couple of days by the ocean, so we can afford to get our pool fixed so they have something to do with the REST of the summer.

[agonistes]

I know who you are! :D

Iiiiiii do not think I am getting an actual holiday. Right now the only tentative plan I have is taking an overnight trip to Aspen to see Leo Kottke. If I am feeling adventurous (or rich), I am tempted to make it a two-night thing by going to see Andrew Bird at the same venue the night before. (Aspen is about a four and a half hour drive from Denver, and while I am adventurous I am thinking that taking a very twisty and slightly treacherous interstate through the Rocky Mountains for 5+ hours after going to a show and expecting bad things not to happen is foolhardy at best.)

If I go to the Rocky Mountain Folks Festival, it will be a daily-commute thing -- Lyons is about an hour and a half from Denver. And I wish I could swing Telluride, but a) I am poor, and b) my parents and favorite aunt and uncle are coming in for a week as of the following weekend, so taking time off from work to go to Telluride isn't the best idea ever.

[wakeupnew]

Oh man! Andrew Bird is fantastic live; I highly recommend going, if you can.

[bethan-b-bad.livejournal.com]

I know who you are! *loves the Debi*

I'm going to France for a week in August! Brittany, specifically. Am hoping it won't overlap with various Forn Millimuns' visits, and will pout if it does.

I'd been planning (I have the savings and everything) to spend three weeks or so going around the US, but I doubt that'll happen now. Oh well.

Right now, I'm working on surprise! coursework that's due in on Friday. ._. And trying to arrange transport to take a load of geeks to see Gareth David Lloyd's band Blue Gillespie at a gig in Abergavenny on the 25th.

[ashen_key]

*skids in*

while I remember!

If you do end up coming to Aus at some point, Mum's given the okay for you to stay at my place for however long.

[kali921.livejournal.com]

Vacation? What's that? Sorry, it's entirely out of my frame of reference at this point. We've got so much going on at work that I probably won't get time off until November, and when I do, it'll be spent for work related travel.

I almost got to go to Istanbul in June of this year, though, for a world hemophilia conference.

Randomly, for the Transformers people in the game, please direct your attention to what is likely the best comic book cover of 2008. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v372/orophinsgloss/Scans%20Discussion%202/000phhp9.jpg)

[misslucyjane]

The only plan I have is to go to Ontario to see the second X-Files movie with people I met through an X-Files mailing list. (We've kept in touch since the show ended :D.) I feel like I haven't taken a real vacation for years. Sucks, yo.

[prix-etoile.livejournal.com]

oh yes it's gorgeous here in south carolina.
BUT I HAVE HAY FEVER AND ALLERGEN EYES SO I'M STUCK IN BED 'CAUSE I DEFINITELY JUST OVERDOSED ON MEDS LUUULZ :(

i have...pictures of me and Cati and Jenny...:P I have pictures OF a few other Millimuns (ie Rue and Frankie and...Veronica? I think? o_o)

[prix-etoile.livejournal.com]

oh and also I'm going to D*C of course luuulz. I'll be in Greenville, Charleston and maybe Florida this summer...with the idle hope for NYC but that's probably not going to happen soo~

[minkhollow]

I think I'm still going to Hawaii with my parents. (Originally, that was if I figured out grad school, but then I didn't have grad school figured and they asked if I wanted to go anyway, so...)
As for picspam, I have photos of myself and quinby from the geek dance last November, but I haven't done anything to get them on the Tubes as of yet (despite planning to make an icon or three).

[lienne.livejournal.com]

The only place I'm going is right here.

My girlfriend, on the other hand, is coming to visit.

:D

[newredshoes]

Yay, girlfriend!

(Psst. I has a question for you.)

[not_that_spike]

New Orleans.

(Yo, Debi.)

[spiffynamehere.livejournal.com]

Hi.

Someone talk to me, please?

[genarti]

Hi! How goes the day?

[agoodshinkickin.livejournal.com]

The only place I know I'm going for sure is D*C over Labor Day weekend. I haven't bought my flight yet, but I'll do that once I get around to selling my Bonnaroo stuff.

I'm still trying to figure out how to fund my next trip to London to see my girlfriend and force her to obey Eastern Standard Time.

Oh and there's usually a big to-do around the 4th of July, but that doesn't require interstate travel so I don't know if it counts as vacation.

[ceitfianna]

I just came back from a lot of traveling so I've got no major plans but East Coast folks, my birthday's at the start of June and want to try and do stuff.

[ostro_goth]

Wheee holidays! Nice of you to remind me, because my plans are glorious: Near the end of August, I'm going to the North of Italy with my mother, and we're going to be really terribly cultural. Verona (with opera!), Mantua (with naughty late Renaissance fauns on frescoes!) and Ravenna (Ostrogoths! Byzantines! Mosaics!)!!

My headvoices are all a-squee at the thought, and so am I-the-mun.-

[genarti]

Ooooh, that sounds fabulous. I envy!

[genarti]

No proper holidays for me, alas. But I am going to Pinewoods dance camp for a weekend in July (having just found out that I get in and get a scholarship I didn't have to ask for, huzzah!), and Sandry and I are talking about going up to Montreal for a weekend sometime to wander around and practice our French. (Hers is much better than mine. Ah well.)

And then Dragon*Con come Labor Day weekend.

Oh, and Iowa at the end of May, for my little brother's graduation. Again, for a long weekend. Odds are decent I'll try to get up to Vermont to my parents' house at some point, too. So basically I'm taking a lot of little weekend trips instead of any one big trip.

[maxwellsdemon02]

Also, you are coming to see ME, DUH. Even if I have to kidnap you.

[saphyria.livejournal.com]

We know a Debi! *HUGS*

This summer, I'm going to visit Indiana University-Bloomington, so I can possible figure out where I might be living for the next few years. In June I'll go to Orlando, FL for a little while, mainly for shopping, and then the family and I are going to be in Colorado for a week in July.

The rest of the time, I'll be working at the bank to raise money enough to bolster checking/savings before leaving for grad school.

*flops*

[gorgonfondness]

I have a holiday?

Well, sooner or later, I do have to look at culinary schools...

What I really want to do is go back to Capetown. I want some ostrich inna pancake with a frosty lime shake on the side while looking at the ocean! =o

And also: the blurry mun behind the relatively crazy and somewhat musical pups!
