I'm doing this update in celebration or you could say humilation of my
10,000th post.
I am not so sure what 10,000 posts in a year says about me but we're going to celebrate with an update!
On one of my errand running missions this weekend I went to a little store called Ocean State Job Lot, which is a discount outlet type store. What do my eyes see as I walk in....REAL CROCS FOR $10 A PAIR! I was over the moon. they had a pair of silver Mary Jane Crocs in my size that happened to find their way home with me.
I tried to convince Mom to buy a pair for Disney but she resisted. Little does she know that they are like clouds of heaven on your feet while you are at Disney, she will see the error of her ways I am sure.
I have a funny story to tell you. Jen and I struck a deal that I would buy our t-shirts and would do the actually making of them. Jen would print out the transfers, as well as our LGMH designs and I would decorate those as well. I don't have a printer at home so it worked out perfectly. Jen sent the package to me almost two weeks ago and I have been waiting and waiting. We were a little worried that it would be delayed even more with my address change. Well this morning Jen PM's me this funny story.
So I get a call yesterday from my mom...and she goes Honey I just got something from you...and I'm like what...I didn't send anything LOL...well yes you did but I don't think its for us!! And I'm like what????? She goes so when did Leslie move in with us...not that we would mind but I think Marc might have a problem with that...LOL
Apparently the reason your box didn't get to you is because I put your name and my parents address on the box LOL..so its on its way back to me and if you'll be so kind to send my your new addy I will have it out this week via UPS not USPS LOL...I'm such a goober. If it wasn't for the nice post office person bringing to my parents and asking if they knew a Leslie who knows what would have happen LOL. So the good news box is safe...better news its on its way to my house...best news its not lost, I'm just blonde and it will be to you very shortly and I'm really glad my surprise wasn't pershiable LOL!!!
I think the reason that I find this so funny is because it's something that I would totally be capable of doing. Love ya, Jen!
I really can't wait until I get it so I can be crafty and do our t-shirts.
Mom bought her airplane tickets yesterday. She is landing on Wednesday around 10:30AM. She was even able to apply my Southwest credit to her tickets so I was pretty excited about that. It was only $21 but hey, money is money! We were trying to figure out her transportation from the airport to ASMusic. We priced out a taxi ride at around $50. We found a towncar service for $65 so she decided to go with that. They will meet her at the designated time, they will know where she is going so for the extra $15 it's just worth it to her. So that has been solved.
I sent Mom the itinerary of our days together. She seems happy with it. Her main objectives are Magic Kingdom and Epcot, plus she would like "see" Animal Kingdom. I think we can get Animal Kingdom done before lunch, we won't do Kali or Expedition Everest (I hope to do EE before she arrives). I think the only thing that could hold us up are the two shows. We'll have to decide on one probably. I think she'd like FOTLK better, so I'll try to see Finding Nemo before. I just want to make sure she has the best time she possibly can, I need to stop worrying.
