JJ,

Don't know much about the boomer convention. Can you tell me where and when it will be? I doubt if I will be able to attend, but maybe I can participate in some fashion?

Love that Monk! Can't wait until Friday and the next one. I love his saying, "I may be wrong, but I don't think so!"

Yeah, I live for Fridays too. Think we need to get a life? LOL!

The convention I referred to is Dotsie's but my guess is that plans for it will not begin until after the release of her flagship book. Or better yet, whenever she feels it's time. I am always referring to it in these post cause I just know we are all gonna get to meet and I just can't wait!

Start a savings for it now women! Take your empty Helmans Mayo jar, cut a whole in the lid and start putting loose change in it. I figure we got a year to prepare for the expense of going over the Mason/Dixon line to attend this thing...ya think? I am also assuming that it will be held in Dotsie's hometown, yes?

Although it is a long way off I'm sure...and just for fun...what would you boomers like to see at the conference? Well, besides mine and SMILES Chippendales? hmmm?

I want to see everyone who's written a book have a booth during the day where they can display and sell their books, yes?

I want to see vendors there like ice cream people giving away free ice cream, and bakeries giving away stuff, etc..etc...

I want to see people like Maggie teaching a scrapbooking class and other crafts...Meredith, excuse me, The Divine Ms M showing off and selling her jewlery and of course, Thistle giving demos and selling her wares...

Whew...that's just for starters...anybody else?

I'm still hoping for the Boomer Tour. And I'm volunteering to be the Boomer Tour Guide.
We need to hoist Dotsie out of her lovely nest and put her on the road for a while. She needs to meet us all and she says she has never seen the desert. I bet she's never seen the Grand Canyon and that's plum Unamerican.

I have a travel van that is practically new. We could fly Dots out here to the center of the universe, find a driver who could circle south and west to pick up the Texans, visit the grand canyon and a lot of places in the west, pikc up Chatty, Miss M, and dreamer then circle back north to pick up people in that direction then back east to pick up toni and anyone else along the way. We could circle down south to get the queen and the Floridians then back to Dot's place for a huge convention.
That way Dots could meet us all and we could hitch a ride to meet anyone we want or everyone and get on and off the van at will then all wind up at the convention.
It would be one huge rolling pajama party and one terrific adventure.
We could film the whole thing and edit it to show at the convention or on Oprah. And at least one or two of us could get a book out of it.
Let's GO!!!

Okay I lost my head. I mean next fall or summer or whenever. Can't wait too long though. We ain't gettin' no younger you know.
(Actually I am. Gettin' younger I mean. It's JJ who's getting older. Yep. She's older than dirt. Not me though. Nosiree. Not me. I'm just a young chick, but I still think we need to get cookin' with the Boomer Tour.)

Well it looks like Smiles and JJ are at it again...

"Didn't I tell you guys to knock it off! We're in the big city now---so let's get along, O.K.?"

P.S.

Thank you JJ for your kind words of encouragement. Don't take them lightly...They're greatly appreciated!

Toni: [Cool] I wish you the best going back to school and your moving. You are one brave boomer woman for going back to school. I know the Lord see you through and we will be praying for your success!

JJ,
I know you made toni and songbird say those nice things just to make me feel bad. Didn't ya'?

Well, I don't feel one bit bad. Not a bit. Nosiree. It's not my fault you're getting old and I ain't. It's just in the Calvin Kleins--the jeans you know.

Problem is, I might have lied a little. I think I got the 'old' pair.
