Yeah, I know Kathy - even if I *could* get Saturday off I still wouldn't be able to go because for an early morning event like that, I'd have to go up Friday and that would mean another night's hotel costs - and my butt's broke!!

I absolutely love the continuation of the bus theme though and am actually honored that he's still using it.....I can't believe that *I* won't be able to attend! I've been along for the drive/ride since it's inception....
I never would have dreamed when we started out with our bus to rescue our adorable dark eyed ad man from the Wisconsin State Psychiatric Correctional Facility that it would turn into years of partying with him, celebrating him on the Gus Bus and now we move on to an ambulance (still a bus) delivering an adorable Dr. Jake coming to the rescue. ::sigh::

oh well.....I'm sure it will be fun for those that can make it, I just can't be one of them this time around....

Not really. An after luncheon event like "Martini's with Henry" that Trent Dawson does every year could work, then again, it wouldn't have the bus theme I love so much......whatever, it's Ricky's event to decide what he wants to do and when.....and it's not like it'll be the first event that he's hosted that I've not been able to attend, the first fan bus related event, yes, but not the first event, not by a long shot.
I'll live....Life has certainly taught me I'm not gonna die from disappointment.

It takes a small act of God for anybody to get a day off where I work, and then you still get cussed for it multiple times lol....even more so if it's happens to be on a Friday or Saturday....and I'm taking my one Saturday a year off next weekend to go down to Marco (that's means this will be an *enjoyable* week....NOT!) Clearance for this one took about a week and a half to get.....I'll just have to wait and see how things are going at the end of the summer before asking for another one off - if I can get the strength up to even ask! You pay hell for it afterward.....

Who knows, at the rate I'm going I could be working somewhere else by then anyway....this has been one hell of a week (again). There was a couple of times on Tuesday and once again tonight where it took every ounce of strength I had not to walk out the door. If I didn't make the money I do there, I'd be long gone already!
