OOO sweat! Nice cushy drivers seat. Cup holder. TV.....Letssee, first stop, convenience store. Second stop, convenience store (JTIs drink alot of wine). Then out to Madison for the Badger football game. No wait! We wanted to have fun this trip, not get depressed. Oh what the hell. Someone pick a direction.

Anonymous said...

Up will be part of the direction we're going after a couple of cases of beer.

kkdither said...

I'm thinking somewhere warmer. Maybe we need to head west to see hale. Some wine, a couple of blankets, some directed star gazing... Then maybe some Hwy 1 on the California coast. That bus would be crazy on the cliffs and hairpin curves.

OrbsCorbs said...

Yeah, let's visit hale-bopp and crash at his place.

Lizardmom said...

Hale Bopp's it is, look out Hale, here we come!!

drewzepmeister said...

Cool,maybe hale can show us the Kitt Peak Obsevatory!

kkdither said...

Just woke up. Where the heck are we? Shouldn't we be seeing mountains or cactus by now? LOGJAM! ....Is that the Washington Monument over there?

Hey, cool, I found this box of crayons between the seat cushions!

hale-bopp said...

Yeah, I can get you the Good tour at Kitt Peak! Just get here soon...it gets cold up there in the winter!

One thing I like here, I can see snow on the mountains in the winter yet be a comfortable 60 something in town.

Lizardmom said...

Cool Hale, thanks for making room for us! Since you weren't coming to us, we will come to you :)

Too bad you're missing the trip out there tho, Orbs keeps mooning the cars we pass along the way, kk has the tunes cranked up, Drew is cooking out his chicken, should be ready soon.

Logjam, SER has been in the bathroom an awefully long time, I'm getting worried! Hey, up there at the bus stop, looks like it might be more of our gang, I did tell everybody to be at the bus on time or we'd leave without them! Glad they caught up finally!

AvengingAngel said...

Any of you have a couple of tylenols you can spare? I've got a wicked hangover.

Anonymous said...

KK. Someone said "How 'bout heading out to Washington." Nobody said which one. SER has been in the john this long? OMG! Save the catalogs and newspapers! AA, the whole idea of the road trip is to get the hangover ON THE BUS, not before you get on.

Lizardmom said...

AA , I have advil, vicodin, allergy meds, heartburn meds, you name it, I can fix it! :)

SER, come out of there already, geez!

kkdither said...

Hope someone remembered some Glade or we ARE stopping at the next convenience store!

AvengingAngel said...

LZ, you are a life saver. I'll take 'em all.

Lizardmom said...

You've got it AA, that's why they call me DR Mom at work, don't know how they'll survive while we're away :)
I'm thinking SER got ahold of some bad taquila, I'm with kk, hope somebody brought some good air fresheners, I better keep the good stuff out for SER whenever he comes out of there!

Lizardmom said...

and where is Huck, Beejay, Cyndi, DA, Fungi, the DZ's, Stu and the rest of the gang??

TimT, did we scare you off?

All these guys couldn't possibly have opted to stay home and go to work instead of coming with us, what's up guys?? Meet us at the next bus stop!!

Logjam, how's the cushy tushy? Still doing ok or do you need a break?

Are we there yet??

OrbsCorbs said...

I am NOT mooning the cars we pass - I am inviting them to enjoy the beautiful sight of my glorious gluteus maximus.

I've been wondering about SER in the bathroom, too. I'm tired of peeing into empty beer cans.

Lizardmom said...

Hale, correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think Orbs's version of star gazing and looking at the moon are quite what they should be... :)~

kkdither said...

I see the moon is waning gibbous; I believe orbs is a golden cheeked gibbon? Big difference orbs, pull those drawers up, we've seen far too much already. ;>

knock, knock... SER? I gotta pee and those empty beer cans just won't do it for the girls.

Anonymous said...

Hey girls. I just checked with the guy that runs the convenience store and he says they got a ladies room. But a guy from Colorado when his wife got back in the car she didn't turn it in and he drove off with it.....sorry! Hey, who's in charge of the music?

MinnesotaChick said...

I'd love to join you but I have a wicked cold.. wouldn't want to infect you all.
Have a great trip! If I feel better I'll try to catch up.

kkdither said...

I did get a little off the mainstream there with the music, sorry. You didn't like the Eels or Spoon? I just got those cds from the library.

Be nice to me logjam, or I'll play that Bee Gee music everyone was complaining about. I'm open to requests. What cha wanna hear?

DA, the alcohol will kill your germs before they can do any harm ....So, hush up and GET ON THE BUS!

SER said...

Someone must have locked the door accidentally. I snuck off the bus a couple stops back, for some strange reason, I got a kink in my neck and it was really really killing me, but I’m more gooder now and ready for some of that beer. Someone said they need more empty cans to pee in.

MinnesotaChick said...

Yes maam!!!!!

Cough cough sniffle ..

Anyone heard the new BuckCherry song? Too Drunk?

Unedited version available on YouTube ( which is down for maintenance at the moment) or I would have posted it.

I tink I need a hot toddy...

MinnesotaChick said...

Hi SER!! Good you caught up!

Uhh where are we?????????

OrbsCorbs said...

Halfway between hot and toddy.

Hey SER!

drewzepmeister said...

Hey SER,glad that you could make it! We were going send a search party after you. Hey DA! Does anybody want chicken wings? It's ready!!

MinnesotaChick said...

Can you make me some soup out of those wings? :0

Anonymous said...

If that's SER?......Who the hell is locked in the john?!!!
KK, BEE GEES ROCK!

Lizardmom said...

Logjam, could it possibly be a Lee spy? I know they're intrigued by us, maybe they're watching from the key hole!

SER said...

I think ABBY is in there...Drinking tha cheap wine will do it to ya...

Lizardmom said...

oh Abby, I may have something to make you feel better too, let me check my bag.... cold meds - hey DA, look what I've got!! hmmm, benadryl, allergies anyone?? AA already claimed the vicodin, how you are doing by the way AA?
Abby, I just found a couple stray alka selzers, I'm coming Abby!!!!!!!!

Lizardmom said...

guys, look what I found, it's a note from Abby, she slipped it under the door, she's trapped, I'm coming Abby!!

Lizardmom said...

Due to the wicked powers that be, Abby can't comment directly, so she asked me to relay the following...

Ser was in such a hurry to leave the bathroom that I got in and the handle caught my shirt and ripped it off, when I went to pick it up the darn thing got caught in the toilet……….thanks to our wonderful(drunk driver) we hit a big bump or a body or what ever and I flew in the air only to come down on the handle and flush my shirt down the toilet……….thank goodness there was a lot of T.P in there for me to make this beautiful new bra for myself………….please don't spill any beers on me or I'm naked for sure………I found a piece of K K 's crayons and wrote a note on a piece of TP asking LIZ to Let me out as I must have broken the handle when the shirt came off………….NOW some one hand over that Cheap wine BEEJAY left behind………..I need a drink………bad…………

Beejay said...

So that's who stole my wine.....Abby, you had better not have put ice in it! You know what that does to you. Oh dear.....men look out!

drewzepmeister said...

Now that Abby's all wrapped up, got her drink and the bathroom mystery solved,I say this calls for a celebration the bus Let the good times roll!

drewzepmeister said...

Ok,what happened to avatar page?

SER said...

Who puked on the backseat???

OrbsCorbs said...

Don't look at me! I puked on one of the front seats.

Anonymous said...

Who wants to drive? It's hard to hold the wheel and my beer at the same time.

kkdither said...

The punchline goes.... "Officer, I can't possibly get my wallet out of my pocket unless you hold my beer."

AvengingAngel said...

Wow, I just woke up from all the drugs LZ gave me. Where the freakin' hell are we?

The Sheriff said...

Hey, drew, just so you know, a setting was somehow changed. It's been fixed.

Good thing I'm not the sheriff of this county or I'd have to pull us over.

MinnesotaChick said...

Anyone else awake??

Gosh.. I hope who ever is driving is.

I'm feeling muuuuch better!

SER said...

I'm still up...ran out of tequila, we need to make a stop as soon as the stores open up.

SER said...

AA...ya gotta watch LM’s brownies. Eat a couple of them and you’ll be grin’in for awhile.

MinnesotaChick said...

Let's head to taco bell!

SER said...

AA...Looks like we’re on I-17 headed north out of Phoenix on our way to Flagstaff and DA has the munchies....yep DA got to the brownies!!!

OrbsCorbs said...

Oh no! I wanted some of those. :(

SER said...

Orbs, you might wanna talk to LM, she may have some electric cookies squirreled away somewhere.

KK, you have any music we can listen to?

MinnesotaChick said...

g'night guys!
I suggest www.1029the hog.

Hey.. I won tickets to Beastie Boys & Tenacious D concert. ANNNND a wing party at Hooters and a Tshirt and movie passes..
I had my 15 minutes of fame!! :)

Lizardmom said...

Logjam, it's only fitting that I come to take over for you. I fixed AA, and DA, and rescued Abby, so I'm on my way up, man, this bus is so long!!! We've been having too much fun to pick up - hey its like an obstacle course!! I'm coming logjam!!!!!!!!

(insert evil laugh here...) hahahah, I'm at the wheel now - hehehehehehe!!

OrbsCorbs said...

Ninety-nine bottles of beer on the wall,
Ninety-nine bottles of beer,
If one of those bottles should happen to fall,
Ninety-eight bottles of beer on the wall!

Ninety-eight bottles of beer on the wall,
Ninety-eight bottles of beer...

kkdither said...

The guy at the convenience store said this is a "dry county." W-T-H?Are we in Utah? Gee Abby, all that cheap wine gone now too?

I have Beck, Porcupine Tree, APC, Tool, Dandy Warhols, Travis, The Verve, Muse, The Cure, Chevelle, NIN, what you want to hear? Maybe you need something more mellow like...Duncan Shiek or Jack Johnson? Maybe you were you eating those brownies? I could play some Pink Floyd for you!

Beejay said...

I am not sharing my good stuff with Abby...she puts ice in it!

SER said...

KK...No Santana or Cat Stevens?

Toad said...

Good GOD, I just spent the last 20 minutes trying to figure out what the hell the letters were I was supposed to verify for my new account. I think I will need a nap. I see some names I remember, so this might be fun AGAIN for a change? I will try again when I stop shaking from the trauma of signing in.

Beejay said...

Toad, liz has something to help you through this trauma.....she sleeping in the front of the bus...

kkdither said...

Toad! Welcome! Yea! All the good people eventually find their way home... Don't worry, it is easy after the initial trauma! ;>

Toad said...

I'm wondering? Does everybody have problems reading those letters?

What I finally did was, hit the register button until I could read the letters. It finally worked.

Now I have to figure out how to put a picture on?

drewzepmeister said...

Hey Toad! Welcome to the JTI!! We have lots of fun here!

KK,How about some Pink Floyd-something off the Animals lp?

Santana rocks!

OKIE said...

Did someone mention special brownies???? I have brought reinforcements in food and drink. Beejay, I bought a special bottle of white wine for you.
There is some gatorade and Aleve for those who might be feeling a little poorly.
If someone needs a break, I can drive the bus for a while. If we come near OKC, we can fill up for $2.17 a gallon.

Lizardmom said...

whoa, where are we?? I put the bus on auto pilot and dozed off, I must have been out quite a while, yikes, I supposed I should have told the bus a direction before nodding off... thanks Beejay for nudging me back awake!!

TOAD- WELCOME ABOARD!!!!!!!!!

If I figure out where we are, where do you guys want to go? Whale watching in Washington State, checking out the badlands, heading to Florida where it's warmer? If nobody has an opinion, I'm putting it back on auto pilot and going back to sleep for a while ...yawn...

Anonymous said...

LM,
Watch where you step. Everyone was using the empties to pee in and I had nothin' to put my used "Copenhagen" in.
Oh KK.......you said you had some crayons?
Hey, anyone got a cigar?

Lizardmom said...

Geez Logjam, we're not expecting Bill Clinton are we??

yup, it's a little dicey up here but I'll manage, this drivers seat is awesome, so cushy and soft, it almost hugs you, one of the reasons staying awake is near impossible for me!

kkdither said...

You've got it drew... a little "Sheep" for your listening pleasure. Liz... no counting them and falling back asleep, it is party time!

I didn't know the crayon reference was iffy... I just drew a sign for the back of the bus... "If you can read this, follow closer, just pick up some beverages and join us."

Lizardmom said...

kk, the crayons weren't suspect, Logjam asked about a cigar...

Anonymous said...

I'm glad you find the drivers seat so comfortable LM, but do you mind if I get out of it first?

Lizardmom said...

I knew the seat was comfortable but I DID think it was a little lumpy...

MinnesotaChick said...

Woohoooooooo tomorrow is Friday!!

I'm feeling better. too, 'cept for this awful headache. Excedrin anyone?

I made my own chicken soup.

I say we head south. Did I hear right??? Snow on Sunday????????

Lizardmom said...

OK, Florida it is, we'll go thru Texas on the way, we WILL find nice WARM weather and won't stop til we do!
Can we be Irregular SnowBirds???

Mary said...

I'm sorry, where are my manners? Would anyone care for some ribs, beans, macaroni salad and a piece of strawberry cake?

Beejay said...

Wait a minute, guys, you taking me home to Florida...oh-oh...I think I might have to cook for all of you....the pool is a nice 85 degrees...that warm enough...and how the heck to we go to California through Florida...after AZ??? Oh dear, I am confused...so what else is new!

SER said...

I don't care where we are, please just stop so I can get some more tequila...

Anonymous said...

Hey KK I need those crayons! I've got the back of a place mat to color in.

Lizardmom said...

Beejay, is that where we are, California?? I told you I dozed off and left it on auto pilot, I was still trying to figure out where we were.
Beejay's got a pool, COOL!!!!! Pool party guys!!!

RWWackoStu said...

Where the hell are we, and who's the wise ass that stuffed me in the luggage hold under the damn bus. Wish I would have found the trap door out of there sooner.

OrbsCorbs said...

Hey, if you stick your head out the window while the bus is doing 65 mph, you get a mouthful of bugs. Yummy!

Beejay said...

Mary, thanks for the wine...I have hidden it from you know who.....

Lizardmom said...

another message sent from ABBY...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Hey guys are we out of TP? Where the heck did my TP bra go?

Any one got a spare shirt, I'm getting cold and the bouncing around is killing these old things…….

BEEJAY'S POOL!!!!!!!!!!YEAH……….Maybe skinny dippin??????

BJ hahaha I can't put ice on the wine we ran out awhile ago so when SER gets his tequila we need ice and maybe more TP.

Maybe we should hose down the inside of this bus too……….when the last time any of us showered?????? Dang………I still have some rum left I dabbed it behind my ear so I know It's not me……….heehee PLEEEEEASE MARY…….NO BEANS……for SER………….or ORBS NOT if they want to continue Mooning people and by the way zip the pants up guys……the junks coming out…….I'm sure we'll all get an eye full when we get to BJ'S……………..Liz great sleep driving you'll have to teach me that one………..

Lizardmom said...

Welcome aboard Stu!! With the music blaring, we couldn't hear you kicking and screaming for help or we would have gotten you out alot sooner!! I think we still have some of Drew's chicken left, go eat!!

kk, I have to jump out for a little while,would you mind taking over the wheel for me? Just don't sit on Logjams lap, he doesn't like it :)

I have a funeral and friend in crisis, I'll catch back up with you guys in a few days

Beejay said...

I'll drive for a while. This one long sucker of a bus, I'll tell you. Oh and where is Orbs? I hope not lowering his blood pressure again!

Lizardmom said...

Thanks Beejay!!
I'll be caught up in a couple days, have a great time while I'm away, and I want to read ALL about what you guys did while I was gone, get this party going!!!!!!!

The Drops said...

Hey Guys! Some how the significant found this page - I can never find it despite the fact that Lizardmom has sent it to me twice. So we're here!!!!!! I brought my IPOD and it's loaded with anything from Rock to Country and some 80's (I'm still trying to get the hairspray out of my hair from the concert last night - I miss the 80's... I actually used to blend)

I brought the Vodka if anyone wants to share - and Cranberry! Crap - anyone got an extra glass??? I swear it's in here somewhere.

kkdither said...

Hi drops! I'm assuming it is the Mrs. since the other doesn't have any hair to spray! tee hee... Love the picture! Nap time!

Lizardmom said...

yeah!! the Drops are here!!!

I actually was able to sneak back early, we got thru everything and took care of everybody and they're all set now, so I'm back,

Beejay, now do like driving this monsterocity??
At least it has a better seat than most cushy recliners! Just be careful, I saw some of Logjams crayons rolling around up there.
Where are we anyways???

Beejay said...

Oh, that's right....I was driving...I have no idea where we are, Logjam, told me to make a right and I did...I think we are in Mexico! See that guy on the burro....I think he is selling something....oh, it's tequila...SER, your turn to drive!

OrbsCorbs said...

Don't drink the water.

Or the worm.

RWWackoStu said...

Attention Bus Riders.... Friday nights videos are playing in the back of the bus and there are cold beers on ice in the bathroom sink.

AvengingAngel said...

We're out of lime and salt. Anyone have some stashed?

MinnesotaChick said...

I got lime and salt!! I brought salsa too

Hmm.. that vodka wouldn't be Absolut by any chance? AB + Cranberry = Liquid valium

AvengingAngel said...

Thanks, DA.
When I die, I want to go peacefully, in my sleep, like my Grandfather did. Not yelling and screaming like the passengers in his car.
Mind if I drive for a while?

MinnesotaChick said...

ummm.. sure!

Live fast Die young Leave a good looking corpse. ;)

SER said...

Any chance at stopping at Taco Bell? I could go for a spicy chicken burrito.

kkdither said...

SER, you ARE a spicy little burrito... Geech, must be the lack of sleep or the wine talking...

AA, PLEASE take over the wheel. I don't know what nonsense these other women are speaking. Cruise control, yes, auto pilot? I don't think so. Take over before we all go over the cliff.

The lost videos in the back, rock. Make sure you catch them.

Lizardmom said...

AA, thanks for driving!! Before we leave Mexico, I want to find some of that realy good but cheap real vanilla, they sell it in BIG bottles, really good deal, I'm just about out!

Where are we headed next AA?

OrbsCorbs said...

Hey Lizardmom, you better hide that vanilla extract. It's 35% alcohol.

Lizardmom said...

anybody comes near my vanilla, I will bite! MINE!!!!!
I'm not going to drink it but I have SO many recipes just waiting for me when we get back, if you behave yourselves, I may just share! :)

kkdither said...

Another milestone! A blog with 100 comments!!!! YEA!!!!!

I could brew up some Kahlua with that vanilla.... tasty! White Russians anyone?

Lizardmom said...

this bus ROCKS!!
My 1st blog to get 100 comments, I think I feel a tear forming, sniff...
thanks guys!!
OK, enough mushy stuff, are we still in Mexico AA?

Beejay said...

Ooooh, yes, the vanilla...I bought some more last time I was in Cancun....I may have to pick up another bottle.....and wine, I need more wine...Abby found my stash....

Lizardmom said...

wow kk, what kind of music did you put on???? Everybody fell asleep, SER and Orbs are very loud snorers, and we won't talk about the droolers...
I think AA used the auto pilot too, I have no clue where we are!!!

AvengingAngel said...

I don't know where we are and my watch stopped. Gimme a beer.

kkdither said...

I don't think it was the music.... only those who ate brownies are asleep... ahem!

Lizardmom said...

hey, I see Great America, I think we're almost home, does this mean I have to go back to work?? :(

AvengingAngel said...

I must have turned this thing around while I was slee...no, I mean driving.

drewzepmeister said...

Oh man,I don't wanna go back to work....

MinnesotaChick said...

Turn this bus around!!!!!!!

Head where it's warm!

SNOW????? nononononononono

SER said...

Wow what a ride. Hale Bopp gave us a tour of Kitt Peak Observatory. KK found some crayons to play with then someone broke all of them. Lizardmom got out her med bag to cure AA’s hangover, AA should have had a little “hair of the dog” instead. I pinched a loaf for everyone to enjoy its aroma. Orbs must of fill 50 beer cans with pee, he must have paper kidneys. Logjam wants to hear some tunes so KK got out her boombox and played some wild music to jam too. Dogadditcs jump on the bus and right away wanted some crazy hot drink. Drew decided it was time for everyone to eat hot wings and was nice enough to make some chicken soup for the ailing dogadditcs. Abby snitched some of Beejay wine and was held up in the privy drinking it alone. Someone puked on the back seat and orbs owned up to blow’in chow up in front, I kinda think he did both. Lizardmom finally cut loose with her electric brownies and I’m not sure who gobbled them all up, but orbs started singing 99 bottses uf eer wall on, really it wasn’t me who ate the brownies. I think Toad got most of them, couldn’t remember what letters or number to use. Mary did a little restocking of food and refreshments for the group. KK had to change the music; too many started to fall asleep...now we know who all ate the brownies! Dogaddictics did it again and has another headache...trying to blame it on a cold...ya right. That Mary chic is one cookin girl... ribs, beans, macaroni salad, strawberry cake, we need more beer to wash it all down with. RWWackoStu has been so hammer he has no idea where we are at, which is okay, cause the driver doesn’t even know what state we’re in. I think orbs “snapped his radish” and was hanging his head out the window play puppy dog eating bugs. Mary saved Beejay from having the DT’s and got her some more wine, this time they really hid it from Abby. The Drops jumped on board with some new music and vodka...wooohoooo. Beejay was driving and got lost...holy shit we ended up in Mexico but that was okay because RWWackoStu restocked the sink with more beer. We drank enough tequila that AA ran out of limes and salt. KK was hiding out in the back of the bus watching videos. Lizardmom bought some vanilla for cooking...sure we know better don’t we orbs? Right away KK fired up some White Russians...so much for the vanilla. Damn if ABBY didn’t find Beejay’s wine stash again. AA goofed and now we’re almost at the Illinois Wisconsin state line. Well it might be a good that we’re getting close to home...I think a few people could use a shower...BIG TIME, that and my liver really needs a rest. BUT WHAT A RIDE, thanks Lizardmom and everyone, see ya next trip, I’m jumping off at the Brat Stop.
