You know you've lost it when...

Rather than going to sleep, resting up for the one day of work you still have to suffer through before your vacation begins and you fly off to your port of embarkation, you sit there and hit Refresh on your browser every 2 minutes to see if anything new has been posted on the Cruise Critic Carnival board.

Ugh, and here I have to go to the tailor at 9am in hopes of getting the tux altered so I can be a penguin on formal night. Other signs of insanity, anyone? [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]

Thanks for letting me know that I am not the only one who can't stay away from this board for fear that I might miss something. I have been hitting refresh every 1 to 2 minutes. [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

On the plus side, it did give me the time to prepare the insert page for the new Log Book that I'm going to place in the library during this trip... [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]

Very nice! Now, being completely daft...Is this a book Cruisecritics grace with their signatures when they sail this ship?

You're absolutely right. You can see a little bit more about it in [url="http://messages.cruisecritic.com/2/OpenTopic?a=tpc&s=927093444&f=969097554&m=7733046447"]this thread[/url] at the top of the Carnival board. [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img] There are books on several of the ships, but there are still more that need to be placed!

I see the Elation is listed as pending, but I'll be on it in Nov. and in Galveston much sooner than that. I wonder if there's one on that ship or not.
