Gishwhes Trip Friday

[tripperfunster]

Friday was the official start of the winner's trip, but not until 6pm, so, of course, we had lots of time to get into trouble!



This might be from the day before, but it's so damn sexy that I just had to post it.

And so is this. Only Julie and Dianne can out-sex me!


We went to Stanley park!


Sam met her first Canada goose. They're known for being friendly, amirite?


A funny thing happened on this trip. We were downtown, and I had to pee, so I popped into a Starbucks. There was a small line up, and I waited for a minute or two. I heard a flush, a woman came out, and when I went into the bathroom, THE SEAT WAS UP. I had a moment of WTF, and then I had a good laugh. I have no idea if it had really been a man (I don't think so) or possibly someone transgendered (I don't think so) but either way I thought it would be a funny thing to troll people with, so for the rest of the trip, I made sure to always leave the toilet seat up after I peed. And take a photo, of course! We might start a tumblr of photos of toilet seats in the upright position.


Chillin' in the lobby


Emma made these rocking' Vatican Cameos key chains. So cute!


Sam and Rachel being culturally insensitive.



This place even had ROBES!!


The view from our room. Gorgeous!


Then we met our 'handlers' at the hotel and we all went out for dinner, and had the wonderful surprise of Sam Ferris, the woman who plays Ellen on Supernatural join us! AND SHE WORE THE PENIS HAT! Well, of course she did. She is really funny and crass in rl. A woman after my own heart. In this picture, back to front and left to right is: Nat, Nic, H.B., Dianne, Catalina, Julie, me, San, Emma, Rachel, Fiona (the random winner) Sam, Kerryn and Lola. Kat is missing from the picture, so I assume she is the photographer.

More pics to come!

Oh yay! I can't wait to see more from your trip!

How big is Vatican Cameos? For some reason, I thought it was like 4 or 5 of you!

WATCH OUT FOR THE CANADA GEESE. Okay, maybe not as scary as swans.

Wow, that seems so much fun!

[birdsofshore]

Your pictures make me smile so much. The rollerskating one is particularly awesome.

Nope, each team has 15 members, and according to Misha Collins (who is known for making shit up,) there were 1000 teams this year.

We had one member that couldn't come on the trip due to work issues, but there was also one extra person who was randomly picked to join the winning team.

Well, it wasn't sitting on eggs, so she was okay. I actually touched it's butt before it flew away. I ain't 'fraid of no geese!

Oh hon, I wish you could have been there! <3

Thrift stores rock! Well, this wasn't a thrift store (expensive!!$$) it was a VINTAGE store. Big difference. ;)

looks like too much fun! :)

I would love to buy a Vatican cameos keychain. Those pictures were fantastic.

Can't wait to see Giswhes this year.

PS maybe the woman who left the seat up did that to f** with y'all? Because I've gone into womens' restrooms, and once in a while, I find a seat up. And these are not those single stall uni-sex things.

Wonder if that was something left over from the last Giswhes...?

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

I usually assume, if the seat is up, that the bathroom was recently cleaned, but this was the single stall thing, and she had just left.

Fucking with me, or had a penis, I presume. Or maybe she hovered? ??? I have no idea, but it was fun leaving seats up all over Vancouver. ;D

Emma made those keychains on Scrabble blocks. So cute!

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

It was a blast. Life seems so mundane now!

[tealightwhimsy.livejournal.com]

I didn't make the keychains. I had the etsy shop, Handmade in Chico, make them for me.

Props to her for a quality product! I'm glad everyone liked them :-)

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Oh! Whoops!

They really are great! I was actually taking a really close look at it just the other day, and wondering how you made the top so smooth and even! I was jealous of your mad skills! I'm sure I would have made them much more sloppy. :D

Now I'm just jealous of your mad purchasing skills. :)

[tealightwhimsy.livejournal.com]

It can be scary to buy off of etsy, sometimes. However, when you find quality work, it's like hearing an angelic choir when you open up the package! :-)

Hee, this year's mascot is an Elepus! Will you guys be buying octopus hats?

You guys looked so happy! Sorry for stalking your picture posts!
