We’re going on vacation!

Well, I’m going on vacation, [livejournal.com profile] haldoor is going on holiday. And we’re taking Dreamy with us, I don’t know what she wants to call it. Crazy, maybe.

It’s possible that you’ve avoided all of our squeeing about this and don’t know, but it’s not probable. H and I are finally meeting in person after 10+ years. (Is that right? How long have I known you? Jeeze, I’ve lost all retentive memory) We are going to Hawaii!

My point, however, is that we won’t be here, and we’re going to need a little help to keep things running smoothly while we’re out fangirling. Sure September is not next week, but we do try to set things up. [livejournal.com profile] haldoor has already done what she needs to set up, but I’m looking for quite a bit of volunteering from some of you. I can set up a few things to post without me, but there are 4 posts that I’d like members to cover, and there’s some other stuff.

I’m looking for the September 12th posting of Big Buddy 40%, and September 18th posting of Big Buddy 60%. I’m also looking for the general chatty Monday posts to be covered on the 12th and the 19th.

HERE is the biggest thing, the thing that I’m asking from all of you – MORE CHEERLEADING sporadically throughout the two weeks we are gone. We have the most fantastic comm in the world! I have seen each of you step in and encourage, praise, and hand-hold for anyone who needs it. I’m just looking for more of that. Both H & I try to make sure that every comment has a positive response, that every post has a GO YOU. Sure we’re not always timely, but we try. So if we can ask that you jump on in if you see something that needs encouragement that would be AWESOME! BECAUSE YOU ARE AWESOME! And hey, if someone gets more than one person telling them that their effort is not unnoticed, all the better.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask, even if they don’t pertain to the comm, a random Kaige, what is the definition of management? is always welcome.

Keep your fingers crossed that the world doesn’t tilt on its access when H & I finally meet!

It's definitely at least 11 years, but we've been planning the get-together so damned long it could be longer! CANNOT WAIT!

I could probably handle the general chatty Monday posts, just so long as coherence is not a requirement. :D

And since I try to always jump in and say YAY for people, I can definitely put forth more of an effort there as well.

The lat bit though, the question about management, made me think of the movie The Intern with Robert DeNiro... have you seen it? His character is 70 or so and one of the twenty-somethings interviewing him for this job as an intern asks, "Where do you see yourself in ten years?" DeNiro says, "You mean when I'm 80?" The kid looks at him and says, "Yeah, maybe that was a bit insensitive..."

I'm so terribly excited for you all! <3

Hah - okay, so fair enough. :D And you're so welcome!

Always - all you have to do is ask.

Wasn't it great though? We had a free weekend of HBO and I think my husband recorded almost everything on (including Magic Mike XXL...), this was just one of them. I think I might need to buy myself a copy now.

IT WILL BE AMAZING! Mai Tais and cabana boys and laughter all around. :D

YEAH BABY!

YES I DO! :D

It was really great. And Anne Hathaway's little girl was the cutest thing ever.

Hahaha... beware the frozen blue drinks!

Hawaii! That sounds so amazing! I hope y'all have a wonderful time there. I've heard it's absolutely beautiful. A friend of mine went recently and was able to take a helicopter flight around one of the volcanoes. He said it was terrifying, but also totally worth it. :D

Hawaii sounds SO much better than an airport terminal in Chicago... which is where [livejournal.com profile] bizarra and I met for the first time, after almost 20 years LOL

Wow! That's amazing. That should be in some (or many) articles about fandom and friendships. Good for you both.

It was actually because of fandom we even met. LOL I joined a YahooGroup for a TV show, three seasons in - Biz had been into it from Day One and she was the only one who kept talking to me. LOL

I actually got my LJ invite from her, waaaaaaay back in the day when that was the only way to get into LJ

One of us is going to end up smothering the other with a pillow, in the night. LOL #Roomies

I can default to the usual BACKUP post, for whatever post needs to still be filled/covered. :)

Hawaii! I know y'all are going to have so much fun!

I've always wanted to go but I can't fly (scared to death of heights)
