WooHoo! I can't wait! I have the best times with DIS friends!! I have a very busy time before the convention, but it can't come soon enough for me. What a wonderful, healing experience this will be. I'm just looking forward to meeting everyone and spending LOTS of time with all of you! That's the best part for me-it's not just a dinner or lunch meet. It's going to be DAYS together!!

Glo, thanks for doing this countdown. I check it every morning! ;) I would love to do one of the tours, but I don't know where I would fit it in! I've got so much going each day, there's barely any time to sleep. That's why I added the extra day, I need that just to "hang around" the parks and see the things I missed.

I did it and it is great. A bit weird (seeing Donald holding her head and whimpering just before the parade, looking at Belle while she chose lunch at the cafeteria and Aurora smokes a cigarette). Anyway, it is cool. You also get this pin at the columbia house, where you stop for lunch.
I would like to go back to the utilidors. I think there is another tour that goes down there. Hey! this is a pretty good idea for the thrill ride tour day...A backstage tour.

oh boy,oh boy!!!! It is getting close!

Sinterklaas is a friend of Santa's. He brings gifts to all the kids (and adults) on December 5.

OT - Zwarte Piet

We have friends that spent 5 years in Antwerp, so they told us all about "Pete". There was a television special that aired a couple of years ago that was told from Pete's point of view. It was a nice special and I hope to videotape it some day.

Now - Back to your regularly scheduled DIScon threads

We just moved so I am still trying to unpack... should be done before Halloween. I have about 1/2 of Caitlyn's Christmas shopping done, I know everything she s getting so it should be pretty easy. We will decorate the tree on Thanksgiving... I'm not cooking, we'll go to a nice brunch and call it a day.

I just have to say something.

I can't wait to meet you "Barb for Real". Did you notice the button that you gave me pinned to my green waist pack in Dan's pictures. That was so kind of you. And that is how I picture you, too. A very wonderful and kind person. I can't wait to meet you.

I wrote a similar post about myself before my first Atlanta DIS mini-meet and PatrickIL( although I have never met him) was right. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I thought that I was having a reunion with old friends (and I didn't even know what they looked like).

I met Olena and her DH, Kermit and her DH, Robinrs and her DS, Bealle1963 and her DH, DisneyDebbie, Ead79(and no I wasn't at her birth), and Llowellsdad.

You sound like a wonderful, fun person. And I can't wait to meet you.

You too, Patrick, my friend. And the wonderful angel of a teacher and Queen of the Swan and Dolphin Resort, Glo. And the wonderful Bellemon, who first contacted me to sign up for the event only. And the Queen of Commandos, Luvdsny. And King of Itinerary, Patinim. And DisneyCub, who just got back from DL. And the C.E.O.'s of this wonderful DIS-Convention, Linda and Mac-key Mouse.

I know that I left out about 291 other people, and I want to meet everyone (including Mr. Swan-Dolphin).

I wrote this mainly for you Barb. I don't know what you look like, but maybe you'll notice me first. I might be wearing a red, white and blue shirt with my green waist pack and the green DIS button that you mailed to me. I can't wait to meet you in person.

Sincerely, RaySharpton

Ray, are one of the sweetest people I know, and I can not wait to meet you and give you a great big hug. I am so glad you are coming.

Now go sign up for something I am going to so I can give you that hug!!!
Ask Patrick I am big on hugs....lol

Barb
10-28-2001, 09:35 PM
Patrick, thank you for that glowing endorsement-it's just my insecurities rising up every now and then.;)
Oh, my goodness, Ray! That has to be the most touching post I've ever read. You're gonna make me cry. I can't wait to meet you and everyone else, too. We've all become such neat friends in the past few months, I feel I know you all already. And, like Glo said, be prepared for some awfully big hugs from me, too!! :) :) :D :D

I only read Ray's post today! you are so sweet and generous, Ray! Your kind words and your wonderful pictures (on the other thread) just helped me start a week that promises to be full of hard work. Please get some virtual hugs, before actual hugs very soon!

I wrote some time ago that I was concerned about my speaking skills. I was afraid that you all would be losing your patience with me quite soon. Now I am not concerned anymore. As we always hear in Epcot, we are different, but we are more similar than different. We are all well in contact with our inner child, I guess.

Secret DISer, I am terribly shy! I don't know who you are, but I also want to meet and discover ... one of DisCon mysteries :D

Language, dear Livia, is never a problem among friends. :)

I was absolutely driving my friend crazy in Disneyland the other week with my mangling of Por Favor mantangawhatever alehado de las puertas. Thought she was going to duct-tape my mouth at one point.....

I actually had time to read the last 3 pages of this thread today. I can't believe that it is less than a month away!


Barb I have the same butterflies. Some days I can hardly wait to be there and meet everyone and then other days the thought absolutely terrifies me. I have visions of gettting to the door for the first breakfast and losing my nerve and running the other direction fast! So if you see some poor guy standing at the door tot he character breakfast looking rather stunned and trying to keep 3 kids under control that will be my DH after I run the other direction :D

Ray you have to be absolutely one of the sweetest men in the whole wide world! I hope that ou will have a hug left for me after all these other ladies have squeezed the stuffing out of you.

Glo, Patrick, Tia, Gerri, Livia, SSB, Sandra, Towncrier, Mackey, Linda and everyone else.....I look forward to meeting all of you and actually getting to say hi tot he people that I spend so much of each and every day with.

Do not chicken out.. I promise none of us bite, well maybe Glo, but the rest of us.. No way.. ;) :D

glo
10-29-2001, 09:24 AM
I do not bite Bashful...don't listen to her...you know better...besides you know what they say about tiara wearing people right?

Do not run the other direction...it will be a blast, besides can't you just wait to see all this action for real? We aren't to different from what you see here...well. Mackey is, but lets not go there....

Mackey Mouse
10-29-2001, 09:42 AM
Bashful.. you know better.. Anyone who protests a million times a day that she is sweet and innocent is trying to convince who??? Really.. I am looking forward to meeting all of you for real.. *sigh* Some of you I know already....We will have a great time in spite of my tiara wearing and Glo's biting..

Towncrier

Glo may not bite, but don't turn your back on her around ice cubes or you'll be sorry.

glo

***sigh***????

You are darn lucky to know me, Mackey!!! Who else could torture you so much? Hey, didn't we diecde that we were all on the bad girls side a few weeks ago? Oooops, I forgot!

I do not bite.....I may kick, punch, scream and take temper tantrums, but NOW WAY do I bite!!!!

TC dear, if you remember correctly I did not throw any icecubes...it was Mr. JayPD who threw a bucket full down my shirt. I am innocent of any crime there and you know it!!!


Now about that tiara? Is it vintage?

Bashful come and have a blast....I promise to look for you..... :D :D :p :)

I know, in my heart of hearts, that once we get over that second of nervousness when we first meet, we'll be like we've known each other forever! I've seen it happen time and time again at regular DIS meets. I am truly amazed each and every time. The comfort level is incredible. And, as sure as I'm sitting here, we are going to hate to leave each other when it comes time to go! I can't wait to meet you all!!

I have a very good feeling about you guys. This is going to be a very magical, Disney vacation.

I am also very shy, but I can't wait to meet all of you.

Barb: Have you made your lime-green flag, yet? On another thread about the dinner and holiday resort tour DIS-meet, Barb was thinking about using a flag to get everyones attention. I thought that it would be neat to make one that could easily fit over the index finger and that she could raise her arm and wave at everybody. Alas, I am sewing challenged. I do have a wonderful button that I wore proudly everyday at WDW that you gave me Barb. {{{HUGS}}}

Glo: You are an angel to those wonderful kids that you teach, and I promise you that if you asked that little boy that you are watching over, he would definitely think that you are an angel. That's why I call you an angel. {{{HUGS}}}

Now, Secret DISer: I am shy, and it seems a lot of us get butterflies. I want to meet everyone and that means you, too, don't you know, lol. I may not recognize you, but if you see a big, old, fat guy with a red, white and blue shirt, and a green waist-pack wit a lime-green button and a Chicago-Mickey Mouse attached...well, that's probably me, LOL. {{{HUGS}}}

Sandra B.: From one butterflier to another butterflier. {{{HUGS}}}

Hey, SideshowBob: You know, I have been drinking that Crystal Light Lemonade forever. Will you have your lemonade stand set up at WDW. I want to try some of your famous lemonade. I also want to meet your friend, Mr. Swan-Dolphin.

BelleMom: I guess we are going to have to start a new butterfly club with all of us shy guys. I have a language problem, too. I usually just listen and don't talk, lol. I believe your heart speaks volumes and I wish I was so fortunate as to be able to speak another language. I have a feeling that you will be a complete joy to be around. {{{HUGS}}}

NurseKim: I think that I know what you mean about work. My schedule has changed to every week-end, extra hours, short staffed, sickness, etc. {{{HUGS}}}

Bashful: I like your name. I almost used that one. Welcome to the butterfly club. And you better not run away. I can't wait to meet everyone!!!!! {{{HUGS}}}

Are you ready for the parade? Will you get your favorite spot? I wonder if they will make it snow again down MainStreet at Magic Kingdom? I love all the Christmas lights and the huge Christmas tree on the main square.

Of course the tiara is vintage..little glo worm, and I think I will head to the pet store and get a muzzle just in case anyone has a tantrum and tries to bite anyone...

I have to own up to this trait of my personality.. I am not shy... I have never been shy, have always been a people person and can be slightly outspoken.. I know it is a shock to all of you.. but there it is.. but I do promise to be on my best behavior, keep the cuss words to a minimum.. and smile my cheeks off to have the best time we possibly can..

One more thing.. SSB, me thinks I knew who Secret Diser is too.. but I will never tell.. hehe

I am terribly excited....but I'm not the least bit nervous about meeting any of you! I don't have any hesitation or reservation or shyness or timidness or 'butterflies' (well, maybe the butterflies...just out of sheer EXCITEMENT! :bounce: ).

I am a little worried that I won't be able to put faces with names at first, and that I might forget a detail or two about each of you, but I can't wait to wrap my arms around each and every one of you!!! :) :) :)

Only 4 more weeks.............Yipppppeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

Is this ever an understatement!!! I do not think you will last ten minutes w/o a cuss word....no way jose!! Not going to happen!! As to slightly outspoken..I best not comment...I fear for my safety otherwise....rotflmao



This does not sound like the nice lady I have gotten to know here- Mackey are you feeling alright today

Patrick honey??? What have you been drinking dear? Are we talking about the same Mackey Mouse? I think you maybe talking to an imposter...lol

I'll start out reserved and subdued. But, once I get comfortable with everyone, I can be very loud and rumbunctious. (& sometimes very, very silly) I tend to have a lot of nervous energy when I'm having fun. This should be a very interesting vacation! :) :D:p :p

I turned the page on the calendar this morning and there it was........."leave for DIS-Con" right there on the very page that I'm looking at!! I now get to see that note every day until I leave. :D Talk about incentive to get my butt going on all the little things I need to do before I leave! I plan on starting the Christmas decorations Saturday, after I go to a local craft show to pick up some ornaments for DIS-Con and the CB ornament exchange. :) :)

I don't think I'll be able to take a nap, I'll be too excited. I may have to head to one of the parks just to work off the nervous energy. ;)

I can't believe it's right around the corner. I'm decorating for Christmas and doing my Christmas shopping every chance I get! It's 22 days away for me and I'm just worried I won't get it all done before I leave! I'm also worried that I'll be so tired from all this running around at home that I'll get to WDW and crash! :eek: But, I'm taking it one day at a time and what I get done, I get done. :D

Secret DISer
11-04-2001, 12:32 PM
I'm not doing any Christmas stuff until I get back!! Well, I have a little shopping done. Things I've just happened to see and pick up. Nothing major and no actual time spent "Christmas shopping". No tree, no decorations, etc. until after I get back. I can only handle one major event at a time!!

I love to obsess over plans and events and things to see and do, and my lovely DM nods her head and says, that sounds good. Which is mixed. SHe is very happy to go along with whatever plans I make, but ...doesn't get into the the microplanning that I like to do.

HUGE sigh of relief!!!!!! Last week, around Thursday my husband told me he may have to go to Germany on short notice, I have been holding my breath ever since. He was very late getting home last night, they found a temporary fix for the bug, and it looks like he will not have to go this week. :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

I would have gone to Orlando with the kids by myself (I have 2 special needs kids...) but we would have had to leave before DIS Con and I would have lost about 100 DVC points. Whew!!! I can breathe again!

We leave in 2 days!!!!!!!!!!

We leave at 8 am Wednesday morning. Unfortunatley we will miss the opening reception as it takes us all day to get there :(

We still have to pack and do some last minute things to do. I can't believe we leave so soon.

Oh, Glo! You're gone and I didn't get to say goodbye. Have a safe trip.

Barb, I'm starting to get nervous now, too.

I can't wait to see all the WDW christmas lights.

Hey, Glo, relax! I'll be down in about 24 hours. Just make sure you are still there. Wouldn't want you to be carted off somewhere before I get there.

BTW, you think Dan Murphy takes a lot of pictures...I got my trusty Nikon ready to go with loads of film and batteries. I know, but the digital camera I want is a bit out of my financial range this year. :D
