A study in Woof!

Diversions, , ,

Today is the Tidal Wave Party at Wet ‘n Wild where there will be much wet frolicking happening, or so I hope to observe.

I haven’t had any free time yet to upload any of the pictures I have taken on our trip so far. I’m actually writing this post from my cellphone on our way to Universal Studios. (No, I’m not driving.) I thought it might be a little “slower” of a trip since there are four of us this time. But not so much. If anything, it’s been busier. Non-stop travel from point-to-point for different theme parks, concerts, bars and parties. I’ll need a vacation from this vacation.

Since I haven’t uploaded anything yet, this “pre-staged” hottie will have to do.

Woof

I wonder if I will bump into him here…

Until next time...

In the Mouse House

Ponderings, ,

The husbear and I left the house at 2 AM to make the two hour drive to the Tulsa International Airport for our 6 AM flight to Orlando.

So far, so good.

Then, somehow at check-in, I managed to “accidentally” upgrade us to First Class. On our ONE hour jump flight to Dallas. How the hell did I manage that? I could have sworn it said Dallas to Orlando. Well, it’s a vacation… but I still feel stupid. The husbear is still making fun of me for it. Now I think he only deserves one hour of First Class treatment. I don’t want him to get used to it.

It’s also weird being the first people in the airport. We actually had to wait for the TSA drones to get here and clock in before we could even check in. Bizarre, bizarre, bizarre.

We landed in Dallas. The husbear says we are flying First Class more often from now on.

For the first time ever in the history of me flying, our connection in Dallas leaves from the exact same gate we landed at. Just in two hours…

That’s two hours of hot man watching in Texas… or not.

The husbear actually said this:
“I wonder if they [the pilots] have a Garmin up there to know where to go.”

I just gave him a look.

We have landed in the Mouse House. We met up with our cohorts from Arkansas who were waiting at the airport as well.

Watch out Orlando… the Arkansas gay contingent is in the house.

Until next time...

Motorola Q9c timestamp issue?

Ponderings

I switched wireless providers this weekend from Alltel to Sprint. Mostly due to price of service and services offered for said price.

I got a Motorola Q9c. I love it, as it’s a definite upgrade from the Motorola Q I had with Alltel.

But I now have one problem with it, and to me it’s a biggie. When I am roaming (which I am out where we live) the timestamps on incoming SMS (text) messages are either off by 1 hour in the future or 2 hours in the past. This makes reading a conversation a little difficult. It’s almost as if it’s bouncing from East Coast to West Coast. And they SO don’t want me to start hacking around the registry on it. Because I will. (And I have already too).

Anyone else out there have this model phone and experiencing that problem? I’ve been able to find a few posts here and there with people experiencing similar issues but none have had a resolution yet.

Until next time...

Almost time…

Events, , ,

It’s that time of year again. Gay Days is almost upon us.

Gay Days 2003
Me and the husbear at Gay Days in 2003

The husbear and I usually make a pilgrimage to the Orlando-area every year at this time. And this year we’re coming down with two friends from the opposite side of the state!

We’ll be playing the roles of tourists this year. I know we’re going to see the Blue Man Group while we’re there. And there is the Tidal Wave party on Friday. Then there’s all the theme parks and hopefully a trip to the beach one day.

I was also hoping to have time to meet up with Sorted and Mike while we are there. I think we’re going to actually have a tight schedule while we’re down there, but I’m hoping to free up some time. And I still have to make some family time to see my new niece as well as the other nephew and niece (oh, and the siblings too).

Will anyone else be down in the Orlando-area next week?

Until next time...
