Driving! Oh no!
03.20.07 (3:29 pm)   [edit]

Mr. Nick and I are planning taking a short road trip during a long weekend, and he suggested I invite some of my friends (I wasn't totally crazy about the idea, but I did it anyway. Yes, I still just want it to be me and him.) So the couple I asked said they'd come with us.

I was going to drive me and Mr. Nick since he drove the last time we went away. My 'stang fits 4, but it's not comfortable for people in the back, especially if they're tall.

Anyway, I think Mr. Nick suggested taking two cars. I had a feeling the guy of the couple wouldn't be too crazy about the idea. I know he is a nervous driver. And the girl of the couple doesn't drive at all. Mr. Nick also said he could drive, but I'd rather he not. It really tuckers him out, and out of fairness, I don't want him driving all the time! Also, we plan on doing *a lot* of shopping. Trunk space in either of our cars is limited.

So I asked the girl about taking two cars, and she had a discussion with the guy. Now it looks like they're not coming on the trip...They'll go somewhere else where the guy is more familiar with the area.

I wonder how badly Mr. Nick wants this couple on the trip. He had talked about borrowing a bigger car. I am indifferent whether my friends come. We'd (or I'd) have a good time either way! Traveling with a group of people can be rather stressful sometimes.

Edit: My OhMiBod review got posted! WOO!

Sometimes traveling with friends can be fun. Congratulations on the review.

congrats!
I remember the days when traveling with my hubby alone was fun. Oh it still is but, it is fun having good friends along. :) I hope it all works out to everyone's benefit.

Did Mr. Nick say why he wanted the company on this trip?

I know what you mean, travelling with a group can require a lot of planning. I hope you have a great time!

Road trips with friends are the best...it's not like u need to share hotel rooms so you still get your alone time, plus there are other things to talk about with other personalities along. Then you can bring your OhMiBod with you and prepare to write a more comprehensive review....bahahaha...

I have traveled with friends before. Either the trip goes really well, or frustrations arise. BWAHAHA

Thanks! It looks like my friend and her boyfriend have decided to go somewhere more familiar to them. Her boyfriend is extremely uncomfortable with driving in areas he is unfamiliar with. He has no sense of direction. So I guess they are not going to be leaving their comfort zone!

Mr. Nick thought that having more people on the trip would make it more fun. But now that my friend and her boyfriend aren't coming, the trip will be *much* easier to plan!
OhMiBod is a vibrator that vibrates in sync to music from your iPod! Hey, you have an iPod! BWAHAHAA

Road trips with more than a couple is okay. My only worry is making sure everyone is satisfied with all arrangements.

I was wondering if he thought it would be more fun for *you* if they came and was just being accomodating.

He could have been. It was nice of him to ask if any of my friends might want to come.
