Challenge #74 ~ Ends March 13th!!! EXTENDED

[osusprinks]

I realized early this afternoon that I had forgotten to write a paper which was due when I got to class at 5:30. I was so excited that I finished the paper that I decided to celebrate when I got home. One long bath, two glasses of wine, and 3 hours later (we're now at about 11 o'clock), I decided to print of my slides for my 9:30am class tomorrow, only to realize I have a midterm. So, in the spirit of my stressed-out-ness, I offer you this challenge as I take a break from studying for my huge exam...

One of our two favorite people decides that the other is overworked and needs a vacation. Realizing that if they stay in the wizarding world it is likely that they will be interrupted, this brilliant person comes up with the idea to go Muggle for the vacation (which can be as long or short as you would like). So they plan a get away to your town/area/country/whatever-you-decide. It has to be about where you live. Please include one landmark (which could be as silly as a lamp post or exotic as the eiffel tower) and your favorite restaurant and activity (even if it is just reading in bed). They can be married, friends, or anywhere in between, you pick! You can also decide the time period. Oh, and don't forget to have fun!

I hope I have inspired some of you to write a story. Let me know! Good luck! I'm off to study till my eyes bleed...

Ooh this is gonna be fun. You already know my idea for my California idea! *wink wink* LOL! Do you think Albus will come out of this unscathed? I think not! LOL! ~mmadlyinlove~

I've just realized that it is now the 27th and no one has posted. Let me know if you need an extension. Heavens knows it's been a busy week for me: 1 concert, 2 papers, 3 midterms, 2 Great-Aunts passing, and 1 car stolen (only to be found by myself on the highway today!). So I can understand the need for an extension! I hope someone responds to this!

[childminerva]

yes, I'm trying and an extension would be nice. I have started it...and for you I will finish it.

[osusprinks]

You are so good to me, Min!

I am extending this another week. I hope more people will feel up to the challenge! I really am interested in reading about different locals. I thought it might be fun!

[mmadlyinlove]

Oh you know I'm in. But.. well, I don't have to tell you what MY schdule is like. LOL! Right now I just finished feeding Alona and Leah, my nieces, and I am going to watch them until my mom and sister get home. But I promise to work on it when I can. ~mmadlyinlove~

I am trying too...but in between Presentations, nightshifts, extra day shifts, organising 2 parties and friends arriving from Australia a few extra days would be great. :-D

YAY! I was actually going to beg for an extension. I'm working at it, but with work, school, and tech week of our production, not to mention the chorus and orchestra concert the week after....

let's just say I know the stressed and overworked and underpaid feeling

[osusprinks]

No need to beg dearie! I hope you can all submit something. I'm excited to see what you have come up with!
