Uh Oh!

I hadn't checked the weather yet... *eyes the pile of tshirts, capri pants and sandals ready to be packed*

I think I'm going to go and add some warmer stuff...

Ski Jacket??? You wuss! :)

Oh, hon, I hope you have a fabulous time!!! So much work put in, and now you deserve to have a little fun. And I predict everything is going to go pretty much perfectly (and you won't even need half of what you packed. SAY NO TO DVDs!!!). :P

Yikes! That's...quite a difference between days. And here I was trying to see if I could fit everything into one ccarryon bag this year.

Hmmm...

Hahaha! I'm from Michigan, so when I looked at that weather report I wondered what you were talking about! 70 plus in May?? That's plenty hot!

Of course, people in OK think I'm crazy because I start melting if it gets over 80!

Have a wonderful time!

A little bit of everything & an umbrella!

Typical MW weather. Hot cold and... wait, where is the traditional thunderstorm? You have to pack some warmer stuff anyway, because the meeting rooms are so f-ing cold. Little hotel rooms with 30 bodies in them - hot. Everyplace else, just right.

I would be very happy with that forecast, since it's been mostly low 60's lately, and Saturday night it got back down into the 30's. We had a FROST warming on Saturday.

You guys have a TON of fun! We'll enjoy the Harry Potter exhibit in Chicago.

All I'm bringing is a sheet and I'll call it a toga.

Not!

LOL.

You are so right. I've always overpack! :)Must save room for zines!

[geminigrl11.livejournal.com]

Wheee! More 'zines!! I am so excited for you!

[obelix]

I upgraded to the big suitcase...

I've packed a carryon my first year to MWC, Oh, what a long time ago...lol

[mrwubbles.livejournal.com]

I know! I remember being cold in May.

[mrwubbles.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

[mrwubbles.livejournal.com]

ecause the meeting rooms are so f-ing cold. Little hotel rooms with 30 bodies in them - hot. Everyplace else, just right.

Oooh, but I always thought it was too cold. My poor roomie then had to endure me tweaking the thermostat up to 78 constantly!

HP exhibit? Are photos allowed? :)

[mrwubbles.livejournal.com]

I've upgraded to a higher level of insanity. :D

[obelix]

LOL

BTW remind me if I forget, I have a little something for you...

[mrwubbles.livejournal.com]

Well now, let me thank you ahead for the lifelike Harkness/Winchester/DiNozzo/Sheppard/anycutieinsertblankhere you have bound and gagged in your carryon luggage. I hope declaring him at customs wasn't too much a hassle! LOL.

[obelix]

*raises eyebrow*

How big do you think my luggage is? ;-)

[mrwubbles.livejournal.com]

-blinking-

What? I'm being practical. Note I didn't list Daniel Jackson, he wouldn't fit. Long legs....:D

[obelix]

*raises eyebrows*

Have you been drinking Red Bull again? ;-)

Hon none of those guys would fit in my suitcase... The trunk of the car maybe...

I hope so, I'm bringing my real camera. We'll be posting photos and updates. Do you twitter? goldiebug can post to twitter & FB from her phone.

See teh exhibit info here. Just read no photography in exhibit. I am very grumpy. But at least there is a cool HP store. I need a new T-shirt.
