Orlando, Florida

Stop: Florida Time!

Mentally I just realized that in a week I’ll be in Florida. I’m glad I remembered to pre-mark that time off in my appointment book.

This year, the Husbear and I will be driving the 1138 miles from Pea Ridge to Orlando. Mostly because it’s way cheaper than flying thanks to the fuel-efficiency of the Prius. Mostly. Plus we get to sight-see along the way. And we’ll be picking up some friends half-way along the journey in Birmingham for a shared ride.

This will be our sixth trip to Florida for Gay Days. The Husbear We actually go mostly for the Tidal Wave Party at Wet ‘n Wild on Friday, and the “goings-on” that occur at the Parliament House all weekend, but usually manage to make it to Disney World on Saturday. But actually it’s a time to hang out with friends we don’t get to see but a few times a year.

Of course there will be no living with the Husbear for the next week as the date draws closer. He’s like a kid who’s been told he’s going to Disney World. Oh, wait….

I guess this also means I need to make some sort of effort to visit the parental units and the siblings while I’m there, since they all live in the Orlando area. Not that they ever come see me in Arkansas….

Until next time...

Post Disney

Sorry I haven’t been blogging a lot as of late. I’ve been pondering on some upcoming changes that will be happening soon in my life. Probably exactly the kind of thing I should be blogging about actually. But those thoughts will have to wait until those changes happen.

We had a great time in Florida this year for our annual Gay Days migration. I know you want to hear about all the wild things I might have done. But there weren’t actually any… that involved me.

I hope to have more details of the trip posted Sunday.

In the mean time, enjoy this:

The rain and thunder sounds at the beginning are the best.

Ring around the collar

Less than a week until our annual trip to Florida for the Gay Days “festivities”. The Husbear and I will be meeting up with fellow Arkansans ARBearGuy and his husbear, as well as some friends of ours from Memphis.

And I can’t wait to meet a few fellow bloggers: Mike Says, Sorted Lives, Dead Robot and SharkBoy.

Anyone else going to be there?

If I’m really lucky, maybe I’ll run into this guy…

Until next time...

It’s a Small World After All…

I totally stole this from my buddy ARBearGuy. Who, I might add, finally has a blog. Go pay him a visit and say “Howdy!”

You might recognize some people around the 3:45 mark. *wink**wink*

There’s a better version available here, but it’s not embeddable.

They got the month wrong in the video. It’s the first week of June. Not July. Way to go CBS News on Logo.

Only a few more weeks until we venture forth and do it all again. Who all’s going to Gay Days this year?

Until next time...
