What to do if you're not at Dinah Shore this weekend

I must say I've been kind of bummed that I'm not going to Dinah this weekend.  Especially since I now live on the west coast a short drive away from Palm Springs.  Finances can stop lots of things, especially road trips to girly paradise!

I guess I'll just have to catch up on DVDs, books, and try to complete my world tour on Rock Band!  And I'll be watching the five billion vlogs that I'm sure will be popping up on AE.  God I love this site!

Though I would love to be in the sun out in Cali, alas, I am stuck in the midwest. Other suggestions of television viewing options (in addition to Battlestar Galatica): NCAA women's basketball tournament on Sunday (Tenn v. LSU & UConn v. Stanford), new episode of Numb3rs tonight, anything on the Food Network, John Adams on HBO, the actual Dinah Shore golf tournment aka the Kraft Nabisco Championship - the first major of the year, Degrassi Spring Break Movie and Degrassi marathon, and when all else fails, reruns of CSI and/or Law and Order.

Happy Dinah-less weekend!

Maeby: Homosexual.

the reason I can't go to dinah is that I live in europe, so that would just be way to expensive. BUT, this saturday, there's a great party in my hometown, a "ladies" party -> no boys allowed!!! these parties take place about 3-4 times a year and each time my friends and I go we have a blast. but, I'm so busy with university, there was just no way that I could sit in the train for 6,5 hours in total, pay 50 bucks for the ticket just to essentially be at home for a day. so, my plan for this weekend is:

• be sad that I can't be neither at dinah, nor at our ladies party
• do french homework, write french paper
• write paper on strategic marketing
• do accountancy homework
• pout
• eat lots of chocolate - why not, I'm not going to be in a swim-wear, nor going to meet anyone new, so who cares what I look like??

I truly hope y'all have a better weekend than I will, no matter where you are!!

i guess you have to be 21 to actually attend Dinah/have a good time while you're there. Too bad for me because i still have 3 more years to go. boo

Thanks, FilmGrrl, for reminding us what "The Dinah" is really about. Well worth watching, even though its relegated to a minor US network (no North America wide coverage until Sunday). The top players all have to train to be hard bodies now, and its worth cranking up your gaydar just a little bit higher and taking a good long look at the field;)

Just think of it as practice for the Olympics later this year....

but being broke is sooo not cutting it at the moment! 

the not being of age yet would not concern me at all, i have "connections" that just follow me every where. but  i think i'll probably wait a year or two so then i'll actually have money and not have to devise a plan to get all my liquor in!  wow....there's so a comment right there but i'm not gonna even go there lol

the saddest part about not being able to go though is that i won't beable to meet all my favorite AE vloggers and such that are there :(

So i guess what i'll be doing is having a Xena marathon, reading my latest vampire/werwolf novel, playing halo, walking around(i'll get to running eventually), and shooting pool. that pretty much is what i've been doing for the past 2 weeks after losing my job anyways :p

have fun to all that's there and be sure to have a drink for me! ;)

The new season of Doctor Who starts Saturday, so I'll definitely be waiting for that to be put up somewhere online for me to watch.  This season's gonna kick ass.  Plus, I'll be re-watching all the episodes of Secret Diary of a Call Girl and season one of She Spies, and some First Wave, so my weekend's pretty much covered.

 Plus, there is no way I'm gonna drive all the way to Palm Springs by myself, not to mention the lack of money.

Cut me up, see inside my veins

My blood flows for only you 

Obviously, I'm a bit bummed at not being at Dinah this week, as I would love to have met all of the wonderful vloggers of AfterEllen and the ladies of Dante's Cove and 3Way, etc. in person. Alas we can't always have (or afford/or get the time off) to do everything we want, so I'll have to make due with some other activities and hope that I can live vicariously through the vlogs/pictures from and about Dinah that will inevitably make their way onto the web.

On a more happy note, I will be attending the Wolfe Video Party in Tampa, FL. this Monday evening where among the guests will be Clementine Ford (Molly) and Maylaya Rivera Drew (Adele) from The L Word and Dreya Weber from The Gymnast, so at least I'll be getting my own share of fun with the ladies at this more small scale lesbian event!

Hi Every1,

             I wish I could go to Dinah but I live in North Carolina so its kinda of hard to just go right now. To tell you the truth I didn't even now what Dinah was until I googled it and I herad Jenn and Dee talking about it on their vlog. I have never been on the west coast but I would love to go. I have a lot of studying to do anyway this weekend . So you know maybe every1 can come to the Atlanta Pride July 4-7 this year I'll be at that one.  I hope every1 has a great weekend. Showing some southern love

Thanks for the suggestions, but still no satisfaction ={

Oh well! Pride is right around the corner! and i will definitely be attending!

Well I would have love to go but after looking up the plane ticket from montreal to palm spring I've decided to just simply relax at home with my girlfriend :P Its better for my wallet...

why, hang with fabulous ladies met via this forum, of course! and much fun will ensue! :oD

we might even talk about dinah shore...

Europe as well here and still 19 years old (it's 21 for both foreigners and americans right?)

Apart from that I need to study, since I got exams in less than 2 months and loads of anatomy and physiology to understand (or memorise if understanding fails).

I could spare a weekend and I have the cash but it would not be worth the flight for sure.

Just wait a few more years (probably 5 of them years) and if it still exists and it's still as popular who knows I might show up.

*starts getting in shape for Dinah in 5 years resolution* (doubt how long it will last)
