Confession. I ate a DQ chocolate covered strawberry sundae in a waffle bowl yesterday. My sister was having one and I broke! But I did enough walking while shopping that I don't think I did a lot of damage. Do you have any idea how good it was? Nirvana. :cloud9:
DH would never send me fruit either. It would never cross his mind. He's more of a jewelry guy. But I am serious about the tattoo. I want either a dolphin or a mermaid on my foot, under my ankle. We'll see how this plays out - he's still in bed! :faint:
 
lexandme I will take that bet. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY by the way. Being married that long is something to be proud of. I have been married 19 and I know I am. So if I win the bet can I get a tattoo too?:lmao:
 
Any gamblers out there? I've got a bet for you. Today is DH and my 23rd wedding anniversary. My money is on he forgot. If he does forget, this will be the 3rd year in a row! The anniversary date was our bank card pin number. We changed it 3 years ago and since then he can't remember. He cracks me up. He'll get all flustered then blame it on the stress of having to go back to school etc. Then he'll tell me he didn't know what to buy me and he was planning on taking me to the mall today so I can pick something out. I'm telling him I want a tatoo for my present! He will never buy me flowers because he thinks they're a waste of money because they die. Guys just don't get it, do they?:flower3: :tongue:
Happy Anniversary Judy!
I know how you feel, DH ignored our 13th in May, just like all the others. I'm pretty sure he remembered, but just decided not to do anything because he didn't want to break tradition. :laughing:

Do you have any other tattoos? I think a dolphin would be cool (and maybe less involved/painful than a mermaid). ;) I've been wanting to get a small hibiscus flower for years, but I'm chicken. Maybe for my 40th bday, in a couple years. My mom keeps trying to talk me out of it though. :rolleyes:



Is everyone following the drydock update thread? I can't wait to see all the new upgrades. http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1940549&page=10
 

Sandy-
One other tattoo on my left ankle. It's a blue sparrow with a ribbon banner flowing from his beak. I had it done in 1980! Just had it redone a few months ago -new color added because it was so faded and my DH name (Tim) inked in the banner. The name was not in my plans but I was joking with him and told him I was going to do it. His response was "Don't you dare." That's all I needed to hear! When I showed it to him he was pleased! The sparrow is exactly like the one Jack Sparrow has on his arm in the Pirates films. pirate: When I first saw it I couldn't believe that was my bird! The only difference is the colors.
I am leaning towards the dolphin. They are painful and it's worse over a bone. The mermaid would have more detail which would mean more pain. Many people told me not to get one and that I would regret it. I've never regretted it.

Thanks everyone for your well wishes. It's almost 1 pm and he hasn't remembered yet!
The Stiller game is about to kick off - I'll check back later!

I have a huge ginormous favor to ask of you.....

On another thread discussing and posting graphics there is a picture of Mickey and Minnie and dolphins. It says another Magical Day at sea The Hare Family, also one by the Hare Family of Lilo and Stitch laying in a hammock at Castaway Cay and yet another of 2 empty lounge chairs with Minnie and Mickey's name on the chairs. If you have time would you be able to print THE HICKEY FAMILY on those for me? I have tried all kinds of ways to do it myself and I'm just nothing but frustrated! :badpc: I can send you the link but I think I saw a post from you on the thread.

Ginormous, huh!? :laughing: No problem. I'm not exactly sure which graphics you're talking about though. Could you post a link or tell me the name of the thread and the post #? I'll have to ask the original designer if it's ok with them, before I swipe their design. ;)

BTW, what's the update on DH and the anniversary?
 
Stacie--are you going to list everyones activities on the site?

I'm working on that today, should be done in a little while. I would appreciate everyone checking what I have, I'm missing some times and am unsure of the days on some of the CC things.
 
Happy Anniversary Judy! I hope he remembers. If not you should have HIM get a tattoo of the date somewhere on his body! As far as flowers...I'm not a fan of them. I feel they die before we get the bill for them. Usually DH sends me a cookie bouquet or buys me clothes. Fortunately he has good taste!

FUnny story today for me...


Just returned from a 5K in Elizabeth NJ. What a fun day! Before the race started they announced that Governor Corzine was there. He spoke and ran with us. After about 1 1/2 miles into the race I heard someone yell "Go Gov!!" SUre enough the governor was running up besides me. He had his 2 body guards with him. SO I decided to stay with him thinking, what could be better than running in Elizabeth with protection!

I finished ahead of the gov. and later went up to him and said, "Thanks for the motivation! I pretended my name was governor there for a while" (everyone was cheering him on..I think it was his first race after the accident) He asked me if I was the girl running next to him....to which I replied Yes!! He said, "You were MY motivation!! You were the best looking thing out there." (well that's obviously a stretch!! Where's the barf face when you need it?)

I thought that was so hysterical! My sister and I took our picture with him and it might be up on his website later on. We'll see.

It was exciting for the moment!

How are the Steelers doing ladies??
 
Happy Anniversary, Judy!!!!!!!!! :flower3:

Happy4Disney - I was on the April 2010. I was going for spring break, but there is slim pickings on the room categories. The cost is making it our "big" trip for the year so June might be more fitting. I'm still waivering. I might downgrade and put us back on the spring break sailing.

rlcook/Lora - I absolutely do remember ya! :thumbsup2 I'm in Louisa county near Lake Anna in a little place called Bumpass. Now y'all don't laugh. It's pronounced Bump-ess. It was named after a family. No, that is not my last name. :laughing: To make matters worse I'm right down the road from Cuckoo, VA too. :crazy: People stop and take their picture next to sign all the time. You sure do have a hike. ::yes:: One of my sisters lives in Winchester.

Suzy Mouse - Way to go on the 5K! :yay:

Thats an awesome story!
 
Judy--Happy anniversary!!! party: I agree with Suzanne, if Tim doesn't remember he gets the tatoo, you get to choose the spot. ;)

Suzanne--Way to go on the 5K. :cheer2: My DS is a cross country runner. I have the utmost respect for distance runners. I was exhausted after walking to get to the course he ran at yesterday.
 
Happy Anniversary Judy!!! I have to say and no offense to your DH but my DH has never forgotten our anniversary. Sometimes I get flowers but he usually buys me awesome jewels!!!! I love my jewels!!! Hopefully your DH will remember, good luck!!! Enjoy your day anyway!!!!

GO STEELERS!!! They won 38-17:cool1: I didn't get to watch it, we went to the beach today. Trying to enjoy the warm weather while it lasts! I'm not a winter person.

Way to go SuzyMouse on your 5K!!!!!:banana: :yay:

I have a question, how will we know which rooms to deliver too? I mean some know already but they could be bumped up and some have GTY like me and well I still have no room #. Will we all need to leave you a message on day 1 (Sat) with you and then a list be made for everyone to get? Or a list be made for everyone who has a room # and then if they get switched they need to have a contact person to get the word out?:confused3

I have posted all the stateroom numbers that I know on the group website. Hopefully, by the time we get to a month out or so, everyone will have a room number and can print the list from there. I will also have lists available at the DIS meet on the first day.

I guess if someone gets upgraded or changes rooms that they should let me know and I'll let the others know. I know that our rooms will stay the same for sure, so if something happens once were onboard a message can be left at my stateroom either by note or phone and I'll notify the others.

Good question! I know when we get upgraded to the Walt Suite, you all will definitely know!!
 
Ken--If you get the Walt Suite we won't have to worry about where to have the meet, it'll be there.
 
Stillers killed Houston!

Suzy - That is a great story! Congratulations on running and finishing!
VAGAL - I was laughing so hard at your post! Bumpass and Cuckoo! There's a town near Lancaster, Pa called Intercourse! It's right beside Bird In Hand.

Sandy, The thread is cruise magnet,graphics and links. I went back to find the post numbers and of course I can't find them. The one with the lounge chairs is #2032 but I can't find the dolphin one to save my life. I did save them on my computer but I have no idea who designed them and don't want to take the design without asking first. Duh.......
I'll keep looking.......
DH still has no clue. I will give him the gift I got him tonight. I feel bad because I know he'll feel awful because he forgot.
