audience participation night

Writer's Block 2006 continues, and European needs your help. Give me a writing assignment! Leave me a comment or send me an email telling me what you want me to write about. After writing a speech with the topic "Reach for the stars" I feel that I will be well-prepared to take on almost anything.
And... make it good - I'm counting on you!

Just a Girl is first in line (unknowingly), as she asked me to share my travel plans. Here goes:

The European Parents (henceforth to be known as EP) are coming in this Monday. I'm picking them up from the airport (LAX). Since they are landing in the middle of rush hour, we are going to make our way over to Hollywood to see the Walk of Fame and the Chinese Theater and the Hollywood Sign (from far away).
On Tuesday, I don't have to work and we will do any or all of the following: beach visit, shopping, outlet shopping, napping, eating, close-range sight-seeing.
On Wednesday, I have to work, so the EP will be on their own during the day, but my in-laws are coming over for dinner later that afternoon. Should be fun!
On Thursday, the EP and I will drive to Death Valley NP, stay at a ridiculously expensive hotel, eat bad food, and enjoy the scenery. On Saturday, we're going on to Las Vegas, where we are picking D. up from the airport. The rest of Saturday will be spent between Valley of Fire SP and Lake Mead. On Sunday, D. and I will drive home, while the EP are renting a car and driving to the Grand Canyon. And while D. and I get to go back to work and do the daily grind, they will visit Page, AZ and Lake Powell, and Bryce and Zion NPs.
On the 16th, the EP are flying from Vegas back here, and then I have three (3) days off (!) to enjoy with my parents.
On the 19th, I (officially) graduate with my credential and then we'll party like it's 1999 (hmmm). That weekend is D.'s College reunion, so we'll do some of their activities and we'll visit the Getty Museum. And then the EPs leave and all the excitment will be over.

And those right there are my travel plans. Thank you for playing, Just a Girl!

PS: I got sick of all the linking after a while. Just google it yourself. And don't forget to give me a writing assignment/topic, please.

YES! I love these invitations. Here are some prompts:

How did you meet your husband?
Do you like sauerbratten? Respond in German, bitte.
Bried, bikini, thong, none, or other?

That ought to keep you busy.

I was actually hoping you'd write about the travel so...way to put my comment to use. It sounds like you guys will have fun.

Now I need your comments. I've been challenged to see who can get the most comments on Friday.
Thank you thank you thank you!

And anyone else that want to come by and comment...please do :)

Couldn't really think of anything until just now. This was stollen from: http://www.sonic.net/paul/humour/msg00053.html

Describe general knowledge in detail. Be objective and specific.
