I've heard there is no "cure" for this addiction - only continuous treatment, such as the loving support of fellow boardies and I've found booking my next trip before I leave current one helps the painful "leaving the island syndrome".

This freaking cracked me up!!! Even more so b/c she is definitely a carrier/pusher! Pushed it right on me... sent me pictures, told me how to do things, where to go, what to drink... Along with a few other disease infested people!
I hope no one finds a cure!!!! I gotta disease and I like it!!!
Congrats on the two tickers Guirgay!!! I sure wish Gary & I could figure out a way to go at Christmas/NYE. I don't think these 5 youngins' would appreciate the Christmas tree being empty!

You never see it coming ... and the next thing you know ... UNCONDITIONAL LOVE
That's why we have the message board, guys. It's here to support us in our addiction. We can share symtoms and treatments. Mine has a slight violent manifestation - when I read about people going and I'm not, I tend to yell I HATE YOU really loudly at the screen! Especially when it's freakin' -30 here at home! But I'm learning to deal with it. Appleton helps; eating a mango helps, but Appleton is better, really. It takes the edge off! Webcasts are good, too, particularly if coupled with a chat and Appleton!!!
We are all in the same boat - or maybe mentally on the same island in our minds. It's not such a bad thing. I mean, it could be worse. Everyone has their cross to bear, and this is ours. Wow.
And I'm gonna put myself out there for all of you. If you ever just have to go, and are afraid, just buy me a ticket (one way would work!) and I will go there and be there with you! I know. It's the ultimate giving and sacrifice, but I'd do it for my friends ...... it's just who I am!
So many people; one addiction! It's something in the sand or the palm trees. Or maybe something in the water.
One love!
Gary? What happened to Greg, Sandra!Or did you lose him on the flight back! When our kids got old enough they came to us in April after a March trip and said "What do we have to do to get to Jamaica for Christmas". And they did! AND it got the whole family out of the whole "buy buy buy presents presents presents" thing. We don't do that anymore. Not since Christmas in Jamaica 2008, I think it was ...maybe 2007. And 2009. We are going again 26 Jan - and again late June. (it's getting worse! oh noooooo ...)! Hope we see you one of those reaches!
I miss Greg! I think I might be mentally cheating on Gary bc I love Greg so much more! I must get back to Negril so Greg & I can be together again!![]()

I'm loving ALL the replies here but this one, well, freakin' hilarious. Just remember steph, Greg is in there somewhere, you just need to coax him out and I'll bet you know a few of the releases! REALLY looking forward to Catcha in the spring and getting to meet you 4 (Gary, Steph, Greg and Sandy)![]()
What's so funny 'bout Peace, Love and Understanding?
