When you mean to say "Watermelon" and you say "Waterlemon" instead; then you know you have St. John on the brain!
Yesterday, as we began our "24 hours to go sedation" plan, enjoying jello shots (watermelon jello shots) without even realizing what he'd said, Bryon called them waterlemon shots. We thought perhaps you'd all like to join us for a few!
So here we are, in the Crown room on A terminal at the Atlanta airport, enjoying a bloody mary. We'll be on our way in a little over an hour!
ST. JOHN...... HERE WE COME!

Have a great time! I wish I was having a bloody Mary instead of sitting here at work on a dreary rainy day.
I have found myself calling watermelon, "waterlemon" this summer. Now my kids understand what I mean and think it is funny!

Oh, I'm so jealous! Have a drink for me.
Hubby and I are leaving for vacation (Bequia) in two weeks, and I'm finding it harder and harder to work. My mind is already on vacation!

Bequia looks interesting.
Will you be posting a trip report about it?
I'd be interested in hearing about it!

LOL! I hear ya. I was cutting up a Watermelon the other day and asked my son if he wanted some "Waterlemon." I can't even say Watermelon anymore, it's very foreign. It made me smile when I said it.

Hey Jo & Bryan!(and soon to be married Beachluvers!)
Sounds like you're enjoying your travel time so far!
I'll be thinking of you when the St. John moon is full on Sunday! We hope to catch up with you guys Thursday at the beach bar forum gathering, but with my group of 14, who knows where the wind will blow us!
Hope to C-U next week!

Sea-nile,
I think I probably will, even though it's a bit "off topic". I've heard a lot of people say Bequia is a lot like St. John was years ago, so the forum folks here may like to hear about it.

You know you are heading for St. John soon when you start not flushing after you pee!
After I get home, it takes me a week to feel comfortable about wasting the water to flush each time!

How about when everyone you work with, are related to, or associate with (even if not on a daily basis) has heard all about the place (even though they couldn't care less - they just don't get it)...
