[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
All right! Girl bitten by shark last week EXACTLY where we're going to be for vacation in 5 days.
OMG you'll be at Topsail? I'll be at Wrightsville with my parents and sister Thurs - Sun. That's about an hour apart. Hmm. If you're interested in a mini f2f, I might could steal the car for an evening. If not, no worries.
Also, I can guarantee that my mother is having the same hissy fit you are and may try to keep me and my dad out of the water.
He's like Jaws Whedon.
Oh, god.
Anyway, don't worry, Tep. Shark gets ahold of you, your skin'll just slough off anyway. You're like a Skin Gecko!

We get there on Sunday (the 4th). Will you guys be leaving by then?

Ahahahahahaha!!! My various paranoias are finally cancelling each other out!
I was not so much with the clear. We will be there 7/8 - 7/11. When do y'all leave?
Train travel in India is fantastic IF you are in first class, because that's where the air-conditioning is.
I agree with Kate about Delhi.
That's going to be our jumping off point. We'll be there in November when temps are supposed to be pretty mild.
I would really like to spend the rest of the day looking at pictures of the places we're going.
If I can ask y'all. How much did you save up/spend and where all did you go?
Midwesterners of her era thought of Jello as multipurpose.
My mom used to complain about her own mother's "salads": lime jello with celery in it. If there was mayonnaise involved as well, I've repressed it.
The thing about Delhi in the winter is that it is *filthy*. The main heat source is coal and the air is so polluted I found it almost unbreathable. So bring an inhaler if you can.
I didn't bring much money at all because the trip was a gift from my then future in-laws. Our "base" was Chennai, where they were living, so we mainly stayed in the south except to go to Delhi and Agra. Then we cut our Delhi trip short because of the air quality and spent an extra night in Hyderabad on our way home.
My favorite place was probably Pondicherry. It's just about the most charming little city ever. And we visited a ton of forts and stuppas.
If you have time, Fatepursikri (spelling mangled because I'm on my phone) is spectacular.
Pondicherry does look interesting! New Delhi is Jon's choice, so I really don't have a say.
Yay, DJ!!! That is so cool!!!
People can become lactose intolerant when they're older, right?
Yes. I didn't develop it until I was 30. I drink lactose-free milk now and I'm fine.
