Check the forum every day.

Start setting aside clothes I want to take.
Comisserate with fellow forumites.
Get a ticker.
Put together a vacay itunes playlist of songs.
Rinse and repeat.
I'm on this forum constanly chekcing for new info
Working on the 10 lbs...dang it went on a lot easier!
Benn shopping SJSpice daily and drooling over all the goodies
don't want to pack until I know what fits!
just have to keep dreaming away i guess..
Isn't this all stuff we do all year long (minus the packing)- trip or not?
I know I do! Did somebody say check out the SpiceCam multiple times a day and dream of seeing it live soon? If your gong to visit Jost, check out the SDB webcam multiple times a day, too.
I do think it's much more fun to be on this side of the ticker instead of the "woe" side....
What everyone else said - mostly I check the forum WHENEVER I can!!!! not sure what I am looking for, but the moral support for your addiction is very reassuring.
i agree with what everyone said...def get a ticker though. Time flies and you will be surprised when all of a sudden it says 2 weeks until STJ. Hope you have a great trip. I am planning a trip now for next year. Just got back about 1 month ago from the last. Am back to reality and just today decided...I need a new ticker
Definately read/reread Off the Beaten Path. I find new things to do everytime I read it. Our "ticker" is over three years old and my St John punch list is almost as long as the book.
Get some Cruzan Rum (flavored) and do frozen rum shots and drink yourself into oblivion. When you get back from oblivion, it will be time to go......although I never spent 3 months in oblivion, so let us know how that goes...
