On hickies: I will lose my shit in a blind rage if your teeth come into contact with my skin, especially my neck.

So to be clear....that's a no?

 

[rick_j21]

That's not very nice. To put it mildly.

Ha should I miss her?

 

[KatieKulka32]

It's a hell no

Ha should I miss her?

Not a bit

 

[Shymidwestgirl]

So what's everyone getting into tonight?

Going through all my toiletries that are airplane sized approved to be packed in my checked suitcase…… yeah ok I am weird.

As an organisation and packing nerd. This is my language.

 

[OldDirtyAltGuy]

Nope... He was LordofDargaardKeeps father

Oh fuck off with that shit.

I'm the one who inherits the Grand Torino when pap goes.

So… not everyone waits until an hour before leaving to pack??

 

[OldDirtyAltGuy]

Why does this thread move so fast?

 

[Nylonian]

So… not everyone waits until an hour before leaving to pack??

I had that nightmare once...

 

[Xerxes82]

So… not everyone waits until an hour before leaving to pack??

An hour?

If it takes me more than 20 minutes why the hell am I even going?

 

[Shymidwestgirl]

So… not everyone waits until an hour before leaving to pack??

And my face is still going

 

[Shymidwestgirl]

An hour?

If it takes me more than 20 minutes why the hell am I even going?

I “started” packing yesterday. I leave on Saturday.

The packing is hardly my concern. The did I do X is what haunts me for the first three days of any trip

Did I turn off the coffee maker?
Did I close the garage door?

And so on

 

[CarlyAnn]

That would be an awkward hickey to wear and to deliver.....

Nah, you just tell people it was from Ash Wednesday

Understandable and I have certain “routines” I must do so I know I did it. The did I close the garage door is a daily morning thing. Nothing extreme.

Plus my mom and sister will be at my house a few times daily to feed and check on my cats. So I can text my sister and say did I do this please double check.

This is so relatable. My pretrip routine is also a bit of a meticulous ritual now.

Even things I do daily I still have incessant worries about. Once I had my sister drive across town to check just in case.

I take pictures now so I have visual proof I did the things that worry me so

I feel the same way. There are many other ways that are so much better.

 

[CarlyAnn]

My Clint Eastwood movies….

Unforgiven was a classic but not my favorite

The Outlaw Josey Wales was one of my favorite westerns but my Dad and I have watched many westerns. High Noon was my Dad’s favorite.

Million Dollar Baby was one I watched when I took boxing lessons. But it made me cry so I can’t watch the ending. I absolutely loved Danger Barch.

Alcatraz may be my all time favorite Eastwood movie. At least as far as the amount of times I’ve watched it.

Gran Torino is a bit like my Grandfather, rough but lovable.

If Eastwood ever tried to give me a hickey it would Make My Day.

Uh....purple is a slightly different hue than ash black......just saying!

Anyone comes that close to me gets a knuckle sandwich….just sayin’!!!

We may have some latent hostility issues or a need for some food from Guy Fieri...

 

[Dayhoosier]

So… not everyone waits until an hour before leaving to pack??

Oh I do! For sure

 

[MidwestPrincess23]

So… not everyone waits until an hour before leaving to pack??

I'm one of two people:
pack 3 weeks ahead of time
or
pack the night before

there's no in between

Depends on the type of vacation and how long I’m gone plus if I am traveling within the same season. All of that matters.
