I'm always in favour of new experiences
Me, too!
Plus, it'll give me stories to tell at the F2F!
And this. Even bad experiences can have their upside: funny stories to tell later!
You all gonna be here when I wake up?

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[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.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
IMHO, if your parents are paying for you to go to the Bahamas and you don't get seasick, go.
Pack your coolest geek t-shirts, and if you need space, plead a "sudden" migraine or case of stomach bug and go read.
Look at it as a sociology experiment, and live-blog it if you find no one, guy or gal, compatible to hang with. I mean, yeah, your folks want you to get hitched, but me, I'd go for the trip and if I didn't meet anyone, would sniff, "No one met my standards. Geez, you WANT me to marry someone less-than-worthy? I thought you had higher standards for me..."
But I'm like that.
Your parents ARE paying, right? If not, fuck it.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Ha, I don't think they are, but, hey, I'm a big boy with a job and a bonus and stuff.

Oh, well, I do have the appropriate shirt for such an environment.

Miami to the Bahamas should be a relatively iceberg free-zone. But with global warming, who can say?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
For a weekend, why not? At the very least, you get some time on the beach. From the one time I've been on a cruise, it did seem like it was difficult to get alone time, but I usually found that, if I sat by the pool with sunglasses and a book, people would leave me alone. (The sunglasses are important -- otherwise, people keep trying to make conversation whenever you glance up from the book.) And if they've got the usual cruise activities, there will be a lot of trivia sessions, which are always fun.

Sharks and hurricanes, that's the problem, right?

I was ALL OVER cruise trivia.

Icebergs sneak up on you. Hurricanes at least give you warning.
Sharks are problematic.
