I am leaving on my annual AZ business trip. I will miss you all very much. LJ is a big part of my life, and I really enjoy interacting with all of you.

This is the hardest part...turning off the computer and knowing I won't see a smiling icon for a month!

I will be returning on February 17th.

I'll tell you one thing...I'm going to be daydreaming in the Potterverse a lot, so in that aspect it will be wonderful! ;) Thank you! *waves*

Have a wonderful trip (even if it is work.) Maybe you can sneak to a internet cafe and check in every so often...

I wish I could, really. However, I am quite paranoid, and I hate using those terminals, except when really in need.

Plus, I always make a point of staying off LJ/chat when I'm not at my home computer. Strange but true.

Thanks for the well-wishing! :) *hugs*

Yes, good luck and we'll miss you! Although it will give me some time to catch up on tLS. :D

I'll miss you too!

A month is pretty rough. It means I have to get other people to pay my bills, watch my mail, etc. It's kind of a pain. But at the end of the month, I get to walk back into my happy apartment and celebrate having avoided winter for a whole month!

I'm such a loser that I often take a couple days off in between trip and dayjob just to catch up with LJ.

Seriously, I hate missing entries. Though honestly, once they hit the grey matter they tend to get a bit confused...

See you in a month!

Safe travels! Maybe you'll find a local library or some stray Internet signals to sneak you some LJ time.

Naw, I only hit the livejournal crack when I'm at my home computer. I'm a bit paranoid...I know that I'd never get any work done anywhere else if LJ was available. ;)

Anyway, I'm back now. :)

Safe journey! May you return with your inventory sold out and your money bag full.


Arizona for you too? I'll be there for 2 weeks in mid-February. Oh joy and rapture, camping out in my pavilion hawking cloaks, braving cold nights, lousy show food, and brazen pocket gophers...ah, the glorious life of an arts&crafts merchant! LOL

I'm back, and I did enjoy myself, even though I was in a giant tent for two weeks (whew). :)

Sounds like you're gone, though. Wah! I guess I'll talk to you when you get back.

Actually, I didn't make it to the show.

Dear Hubbie came down with a touch of the flu. Came the day to head out to the show, I was starting to feel the early symptoms myself. Decided that the sanest action would be to kiss the show goodbye rather than risk trying to make the 3-day, 1500 mile driving marathon. Yes, I'll miss the income from doing one of my biggest shows of the year. On the other hand, my life is worth more than trying to face homicidal drivers when I'm feeling less than 100% alert and functional.

I spent several days in bed, feeling under the weather but not to the point of sheer misery. Am pretty much back to normal now.

Meanwhile, I'll simply try to book into a few extra shows this summer to make up for the shortage in income. You know the story... LOL... ah, the life of an arts&craft merchant. *g*
