Geez...I go out shopping for an hour and sit down to start and this.....?
So I just plain couldn't get my meta based on "Up the Down Staircase" to work.

My challenge it to constructors is to make a meta where the meta, theme or metanism is "Up the Down Staircase".

Ashore and sipping a large mug of spiced chai.

What I'm feeling right now is considerably longer than 5 letters and something the Rolling Stones can't get. :D

To that were added extra-toasted tater tots and a Guinness or some.

I'm taking a seat at the shore's Tiki bar and having that, please.
OMG that sounds maaaahvelous!

It's breakfast time somewhere, yes?

On the beach, enjoying this new find.

On shore.

We reached page 3 in less than an hour. I wasn't sure how easy it others would find it. I felt like I got a little lucky to see it so quickly.

Your knees bark? They must be dog-tired. At least you still aren't aboard the bark you sailed in on. Maybe you'll find a bark-a-lounger on shore someplace? Then you can bark an order to the cabana boy.

Oh no... After doing Dr. Tom's puzzle this week, I can't stop punning, or whatever that is I just wrote...
