I was all like "Camping's great! I LOVE sleeping outside under the stars!" and then when i brought home the calendar, V looked it over, handed it back, and said "have fun baby, but i have something on EVERY weekend there's a camping trip."
You know how in True Blood, Bill Compton can zoom across a room in under a second? Yea, that was me, immediately in his face. WHADDAYAMEANYOU'RENOTGOIN?????
He did start talking but all I heard was "wahwahwahwahwaMIAMIDOLPHINSGAMESUITETICKETSwahwahwahawha"
I'm sorry....did you say something about MIAMI DOLPHINS SUITE TICKETS?
I get to eat charred meat on a stick, sleep on the ground, and serve my youngest up to the mosquitoes as an early thanksgiving feast - AND YOU'RE GOING TO THE DOLPHINS GAME??? IN THE SUITE?????????
Very well. Go. Have fun. Don't worry about me. I'm sure we'll be fine. just because we're coming off a tropical storm, and it could rain, and my tent's not waterproofed, and i've never started a fire before and i didn't know there was such a thing as waterproof matches, and the stove takes some kind of fuel that isn't sold at walmart, and it could be REALLY cold, and IT'S IN THE WOODS.....we'll be fine. Go. have a great time. really.
So, it's ME and a group of 5 dads and our respective children. I took a poll at the den meeting tonight. NO MOMS ARE GOING. that's right. ZERO. i am IT. That means i'm either going to get REALLY CATERED TO (fingers crossed). or be REALLY BUSY refereeing fights and making sure children don't run into the huge pile of sticks that are on fire. who wants to lay odds?

OMG! BUT you will get the Mother of the YEAR award for this!! And AFTER it is all over with, you will look back and be so glad you did it! HOWEVER, the during part may quite possibly be a pain in the tail, what with Ida sending all that rain and wind and all!!
Can't WAIT to hear the outcome!
Good luck!

Wow! I applaud you. I'd be trying to find someone who could give me the flu so I wouldn't have to go. On second thought, you did say it'd be all men - and you're the only woman, so being around all that testosterone might be fun. Hope you end up having a really great time. Bring on the pampering!
