Apparently my mother is way cooler than me...

She's going on a cruise of castles in Amsterdam and Germany. Or some such ridiculousness. And although I abhor cruises, I'm so jealous I can't see straight. I had to help her with cocktail attire (for the dinners), for god's sake! Plus she's already been to Amsterdam once. Isn't that enough? (An aside: I was scarred beyond recognition from that first trip to Amsterdam. Imagine your mother standing next to a 12 foot tall penis at the sex musuem and you'll only begin to imagine what I'm talking about.)
 
Karmically speaking, I realize she's suffered by marrying a baseball-loving, cigar smoker, but come on! And I realize her first son must be a huge disappointment due to his college football, political, and religious affiliations, but really she should have just nipped all that shit in the bud early on, right?
 
Okay fine. I'm not saying she doesn't deserve to go. I'm just saying I deserve it too. And possibly more than her, because.... well, because I say so.
 
Jealousy does not bring out my best colors.

I just had to go look at a map on Google to figure out how one could even take a cruise ship to said countries. Sad.

But dude, I'm jealous too! Let's make a plan for 2012 to go on our very own cruise of European Castles, but replace cruise with limo-chauffeured tour.

If it makes you feel better, I didn't even question the cruise part 'cause I'm that dumb when it comes to geography. I just accepted a landlocked cruise as fact.

And I'm ready - 2012 here we come! Only I'm cool with whatever chauffeured vehicles are most convenient, i.e. pedi-cabs in Amsterdam or whatever.
