    It shows opposites attract! Early bird plus night owl - somehow it works.
    Hey, @ardee, just noticed your countdown. Lucky dog, oops, lucky kitty cat! :woohoo:

    Ha Ha - these early risers who need no alarm seem to be more common than I thought, darn, I thought DH was unique and special. Well, he is to me at least :love:
    But I must tell you @Multifarious5, DH has crossed over to the dark side. After 40+ trips he has fallen victim to the shiny things. :noangel:

    Thanks, Geogran. Love ya! :blowkiss:
    Speaking of owls...have I ever told you how much I love your avatar?
    So cute.
    Hitting the road early from SoCal and hope to get to Cosmo by 11-11:30am.
    We're thinking about doing a live report to end our summer with a bang.
    We've had some fun doing them and it's nice to look back and relive some great times. :woot:

    Have a marvelous time, @ardee!
    I find that it doesn't matter how old I get, that last week until Vegas turns me into a five-year-old: "Only 6 more sleeps! Only 5 more sleeps!..." By the time I get to the last night, I'm like this: :woohoo::feedme::biker: :woot: It really does feel like the night before Xmas, so you really made me laugh with that one!

    Enjoy!~

    Hubs just said he's getting into wanting to do a live report now, so I guess it's a go. :headbang:

    Per the rental agreement I need to keep both hands on the kazoo at all times.
    Also, my puppets are still in protective custody since the company picnic incident...no visitation... :(

    I am not sure if this counts. Right now is the "night before" for me. Spending a week in Denver visiting my best friends before heading out to Vegas for 2 nights. Very excited. Energy is high. Very anxious to do laundry again. Just waiting until the morning for all these things. Night time flight.

    I pack, unpack, repack, unpack and repack! Then I think to myself, am I missing anything? Am I over-packed? And it starts all over again, unpack, repack...

    When I'm done obsessing about what to take and do I have all my documents in order, I watch TV and read VMB until I think I can fall asleep. Well, who can sleep, is it time to wake up yet? Nope only an hour since I put my head on the pillow.... try and fall asleep again. BOING! Is it time now? Nope only an hour.. you get the picture.

    Guess who leaves for Vegas tomorrow? And guess who can't sleep yet?! But I'm done packing! :woohoo:

    My packing is already almost finished. Just a few last minute details to take care of. I plan to have an early evening nap and then stay up until it's time to leave for the airport. Maybe that way I'll be able to sleep for the 2.5 hours of the flight. Have an issue with being confined, so plane rides can be nerve wracking lol.

    May I suggest Tylenol PM - such a perfect sleep for all 4 hours of my flight
