08 DEC 2007 - 7 Day Eastern Magic Part 3

[SeaSickPsycho]

We have played several games here how about funniest or wierdest person on a flight with you?
Mine is Turkey Man Story
Turkey Man was seated on my left a few years ago on a flight to Orlando. As the flight attendants started around with beverages, TM picked up his duffle and pulled out a Jewel deli package of about 2lbs of sliced turkey. He asked if he could use my tray table (he couldn't use his because he stuck his stockinged feet up in the air every few minutes) for his turkey and large Gatorade. He proceeded to gobble his turkey, slice by slice by holding it in the air and dangling it into his mouth. When he finished his turkey, he pulled out his toothbrush and toothpaste and put a squiggle of paste on the brush and then sat there balancing his toothpaste until the occupied sign turned off. He went down the aisle in his stocking feet, carrying his toothbrush to the back of the plane. Needless to say there were turkey "crumbs" all over his area. And that folks is my TM story. My friends like me to tell this story and act it out over and over and over.

I am so sorry you had that experience.

Hi
You can PM me or JsMom2 with a room number and age of children, if any, and if they are boys or girls.. If you are celebrating anything, let us know that too..

I did have a whole link to the SS However, due to security of the children and some "shifty" Dis' members ruining our fun and making some not so polight comments, I took all names and Cabin numbers off the list..

We may have to Print and make a bunch of copies of a finalized list when all our GTY have Cabin numbers

We want in too. I have two children. Also, what type of gifts should we bring?

I have to get Pumpkin Cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory. Have fun in Vegas. We think November is the best time to go. Not too crowded and the weather is divine.

Is the Pumkin Cheesecake from Sam's Club ok? It is from the Cheesecake Factory.

I don't remember seeing any machines that take real money last year. It's just not the same!

I love hearing the coins fall out of the machines. I think it really bothered those playing around me.

If you never notice a crazy person on your flight, does that make you the crazy person?

Jennifer: I hope your DS feels better today!
Beth

Thank you Beth! DS2 is back to his old mischievous self today. He is standing right next to me saying "shoe", over and over and over again. I bought him new shoes yesterday and now he doesn't want to take them off. So, yes he is feeling much better today. However, Mommy is a bit tired now.

Just like, if you don't have an annoying neighbor. . . Are you "that" annoying neighbor?

[TheTXTaylors5]

Wasn't me either....
Blame Mommyoftwinfants.... she's the one who snagged like 5 pirates in 2 days..

How is that possible?

Mommyoftwinfants. . . do you have something on your computer that blocks everyone else out? I saw on some previous posts that you got the wench on both sides of the pirate when others were trying to post too. How is that possible? What is your secret trick over there?

Good morning!!

 

[Cruise]

Ya' Think we can get 15,000 or even 20,000 before we set sail?

Good morning, no time to catch up, just wanted to let you know that all of my friends won their elections last night!

Beth

Congrats!

If I knew how many people here had Build A Bears.. I could do some Semi Secret Mickey exchange gift shopping.. Think anyone know the BaB stuff was from me?

Naaaahhhh.....

Let's see, I missed one day of work and one holiday. That should leave about two weeks worth of paperwork on my desk. Where does it come from when there isn't that much when I am in the office?

It's the paper fairies.

I was asked to join a focus group on the cruise last year. I think they gave me $50 for participating. Anyone else done something like this and do you know how the select participants?

Most focus groups are done strictly by demographics. They figure out your age, race, gender, marital status, etc. Depending on what kinda input their after, it might also be based on if you brought your kids on board or not. Focus groups in LA always ask for your annual household income too.

Sweet. One of my favorite photos of our son (now 29) is of him sleeping in a cardboard box. He was playing in it and fell asleep.

Ok... not my child obviously... but what is it with cardboard boxes?? The weird thing on the floor beside the first box is a little stuffed moose, by the way. I was just looking at it and thinking...

Hmm. I haven't really had anything too funny or weird. There was the one guy behind me that kept getting drunker and drunker. Then the girl on the flight to Australia that switched with my friend for the outside seat and was ever-so-grateful because she "gets up all the time during the flight." And then she proceeded to sleep the entire 17 hours.

I don't miss those filthy nasty coins and love the TITO system.

Anything.. nothing too expensive.. This is a cute little unstressed and unexpensive way of giving a little Holiday fun to all involved..

Pencils, stickers, tattoos, disney or non disney related, bracelets, glowsticks, pirate coins, anything and everything you can think of is fine..

I think I am just as excited for all our GTY people as they are.. and I have a Cabin.. I don't expect an upgrade since we are in an 8 already.. We are on a waiting list for a 3 but I don't see that happening..

 

[Cruise]

The person on the 12/1 in the other thread was upgraded from a 6 to a 4!! So you might still get a balcony yet.

Speaking of Cats in Boxes...
I wish I still had the one of my cat in my Avon box.. It says Simply Irresistable and poking out from under the cover is my cat.. I do have this one, I have no clue how he got his fat little body into the Poker box
