It isn't a bad way to go sometimes. Doing the same type of dates (or in the same way) can get boring after a bit. Switching your game up can prevent stagnation.

LOL -okay man. You don't know what you'll be missing, though. But, yes, check for specials, maybe they have something going on right now. If they do, it's a must stay. When we went, the Sheraton had the best rates. The good thing about going during the spring, and summer, and the beginning of the fall season is you can enjoy the Maid of the Mist and the tour behind the Falls. We missed out on that, because we went when it was below zero -still a lot to do, though. Mackinac Island is also a nice place to take her. I'd really plan way ahead of time, though.

Exactly! I couldn't agree more.

I feel you.

What's Mackinac Island? I'm not trying to fly long-distances, I was talking driving. Something that's closer to the crib.

My girl is excited, because I won't tell her where we're going this weekend. I think she'll like kickin it at the Falls, since she's never been, and I think she'll like the perfume I'm going to give her, too. Dusty, this shit better be tight, home's LOL.

Awwwww, Iota Man's in love and is buying her stuff and taking her places---without keeping the receipts. :)

You posted that you live in Shaker Heights, which I'm assuming is in Ohio, unless you're speaking of a "Shaker Heights" in a different state. If you're in Ohio, Mackinac Island is somewhat of a drive, but it's not so far that you need to fly. Mackinac Island is in Northern MI. Minus the horse manure every 15 feet, I enjoyed my stay there. The boat ride across the lake to the island is fun, plus, there are no cars allowed on the island. You and your lady friend either walk, or catch a horse & carriage ride, which is always fun, if you're into that kind of thing. I didn't really care for the hotels there, I prefer more "modern day" hotels. The hotels there are really old, "house like" with porches, etc. -that kind of thing. The hotel we stayed in was like that. Other than that, there are all kinds of fun things to do there, great places to eat, and a lot of history. I'm not sure if that's your thing, but we enjoyed our stay there.

I never recommended that you take her there. I only recommend that you stay in one of the Falls View hotels (provided that it's in your budget). Whatever it is that you have decided to do, just make sure you don't start something with this young lady that you are not going to continue doing (throughout your relationship) with, and for her. Have fun, and don't forget to bring Craig T. Cooper, and Gary Taylor with you. Add some Boney James to your playlist, too.;)

ETA: If you don't stay at the Sheraton or one of the other Falls View hotels, at least take her to breakfast at the Sheraton. I don't know about the other ones but the view there is really nice. I took this shot during breakfast. As I can remember, I think it's on the 11th floor. The food is great, and reasonably priced, too.

My weekend is so busy there is no point in Mr. KDR coming over. Saturday I have graduation all afternoon and Sunday I have an SAI event all afternoon.

But, we did get together last night for a local street concert and dinner. Well, it wasn't really local for him...he had to drive 40 minutes. But, it was still a good time.

Tomorrow, I get my NEW MATTRESS!!!! I cannot wait to sleep on it!

I think I'm more "in like" if anything. But I've never felt this way about the other females I use to kick it with before I met her. She is thebomb.com LOL.

Horse shit all over the place and no cars, fuck that LOL. I gotta be able to drive where I want to go, and if I can't walk around without stepping in a pile of shit, then I wouldn't want to visit that place.

CTFU! That's the first thing I'm packing is my music, especially those two. I don't have a playlist though. I just download what I like, and play them as I go. That Boney James cut is nice as hell. I'll have to wait until I get back to see what he has and download more cuts. As soon as I get off work today, I'm picking up my girl, so I won't have time to download dude's cuts.


Damn, that's nice as hell. I'll have to check that out, depending on what my girl wants to do for breakfast. I already made reservations at the Days Inn. The Fallsview hotels were too high.

On the subway today, I was standing next to this young man who was flexing his biceps every so often, when he thought I was looking his way. I was just staring into space instead of reading my book, but every so often I'd see him look at me and pop his bicep. I could barely contain my laughter.

That is soooo corny.

It reminds me of the latest episode of American Colony: Meet the Hutterites on National Geographic. As if the Hutterites are not patriarchal and male-dominated enough, the teenage boys are trying to figure out how to be more mainstream patriarchal, male-dominated, misogynist, etc. They are trying to learn how to be cool and even sexy for the girls. Corny. LOL.

http://l.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mesg/emoticons7/24.gif -Most people stayed on the sidewalk to avoid stepping in it. I understand how you feel, though. LOL.

I reactivated my okc account, only to realize within minutes why I deactivated it. Unfortunately it makes you wait a week to do so. Frustrating.

CTFU! Dude was saying "I'll flex my muscles for some ass". LOL! This is some funny ass shit.

Total Baader-Mienhof effect, but I'd not heard about Mackinac Island until this post and I just saw a commercial for it. Random.

Mackinac Island is awesome, especially if you enjoy history :) Mackinaw City, on the mainland, is pretty cool too. I don't stay on the actual island. It's a lot cheaper to stay in Mackinaw City and just visit the island. The hotels in Mackinaw City are more traditional and there are a lot of things to do there too.

I really wish the investigator who attended this audit with me was single. He was a really nice guy, funny, interesting; we had a lot in common and, frankly, he was hot. It was fun to hang out with him for the week and I'm really glad he was there because the other co-worker I was with didn't really want to do any sight seeing, until we pushed him to come out with us. then he fell in love with Hilton Head and now wants to vacation there with his wife. He was seriously going to eat frozen dinners in the hotel room every night!

Ah well, all the good ones are married. Such is life. At least he made the work trip fun.
