[becka]

guess everyone is out to lunch!

I wish I had time for lunch. I didn't have breakfast or lunch today. I didn't get to eat until I got home for dinner.

 

[becka]

My mail just came. I got 2 of Jakes engines, a load of pics that I need for my calendars for Christmas gifts, and a full body SPANX!!!!

I forgot to mention that I bought some Spanx pantyhose on Saturday. $20....they had better be really, really good for that price!

 

[elaineteresa]

I would guess yes. I was caught in some horrible traffic already.

yes, watch out - I-4 can come to almost a complete crawl. You need to get through there before the slowdown occurs or take one of the other roads out of the airport.

[becka]

ok guy thing i guess. what is SPANX or do you really mean SPANDEX

 

[becka]

I'm so happy for you! Welcome to Deck 6...and for your initiation..........



...... just kidding!!


Guess I'd better contact Barb to find out where my friends are...unless they are doublign up on the families these days?!! I swore she told me 6528...

maybe they got an upgrade.

They had to clear out that part of Deck 6 to put us in!!!

 

[brack]

Brack,
UNC football team had a meeting at 3pm; new coach expected to be announced by press release at 4pm, sources say.

Forget the coach just give me some star quality players!

 

[becka]

Karen and I and other willing/unwilling participants are flying out of BWI on the 9:30 am 'ish SWA flight.....

(ok no funny phone calls to TSA by any of you guys)

TSA? I would like to phone in an anonymous tip. There will be some people on the 9:30 ish SWA flight from BWI to MCO. I think they are carrying concealed bananas and might be a danger to the non-DIS public.....

 

[becka]

Actually i did call DCL yesterday...First they tried to tell me that a cat 12 would cost more than my existing room....Then went i told her she was mistaken...She did find a lower cost but said i would lose my book on board 10% discounts for DH and I.

So really only $400 difference to risk being smooshed down on deck 2. i remember the cat 11 from 2004...Boy we were squished and that was only for 3 days.... After a week i would be killing my family or sleeping on a deck chair on 4 or 10.

The CM actually tried to tell me that i had a SPH...DUHHHHH.....

But i am in the deck 5 cluster with Mark on my left...Tana two doors down to right.

Nope staying put ......now if it were $800

DO YOU HEAR ME NOW>>>>>>

Yeah, the 10% discount did not apply to the rate but we still saved almost $1200 without the discount so it was still worth it for us.

 

[becka]

My ticker says 3 weeks and 4 days

After a day like today it could not get here any sooner!!!

 

[Jhalkias]

I nominate Andy!!

Probably a bit late on this, but I second the nomination.

All in favor, signify by saying AYE!

[tynkerbell]

am I the only one without Ipod?

Nope. I don't have one either... A cheapy MP3 player that I use on the treadmill is all I need.

Thank You Andy!!!! That is exactly what I needed to read tonight. I am laughing so hard I am crying!!!!

 

[87Heel]

Hmmm ... wonder how many times today I checked on all the gifts (OK, my stuff, too) that I ordered YESTERDAY to see if anything has shipped yet?!!! Why, no, I didn't pay for overnight shipping. But one thing actually has the UPS tracking number!

 

[Jhalkias]

I told DH that he, John1 and Mike were going to be the Cheetah Boys. Actually, I told him I signed him up...to do that. The look on his face was priceless....he couldn't think of anything to say but what do I have to wear for this?

Did you tell him a Cheetah Speedo?

Between this one and the "scissors in Kindergarten" post, I am almost in tears here in the hotel room by myself. No TV on - and I wonder if our business manager for the school district in the room next door is wondering what all the laughing is about!

[Jhalkias]

Brandi, stop.... I swear you have the perfect life... everything just seems to work out for you on the mountain, I am thinking of moving there.. are there any houses for sale???

Amy and I are moving to "Brandi's Mountain".

Will your mom take care of Sophia too, and can you take another couple in your weekly card game? Oh, and is the road department hiring?

Yes, and when the business manager says, "Hey, John, what kept you cracking up last night?" .... do you have an answer? Because I'm not sure that "Cheetah Boys, scissors in Kindergarten and the reference citations of the DIS" are going to help you explain yourself!

 

[brack]

I was in the Michael's craft store and this is what I found ..... A LIME GREEN CHRISTMAS TREE! covered in lime green lights. Almost bought one for the cruise.

 

[Jhalkias]

Hello, This is the 17th cruise and we'll be on the double dip with you, new to the disboards. My cousin Tavia Storman got us on. We look forward to meeting with everyone!
We did the same cruise in June on the first double dip. We did all the tours and this trip we are going diving and massages on costa Maya.

Welcome!

(More Victims)

Can any of the males in your party sing? We may need another "Cheetah Boy" for talent night. Please bring a Cheetah Speedo.

And are you on deck 6?

John1

 

[becka]

I'm still gonna look into that port upgrade.

As much fun as Deck 6 Forward sounds we may look into the port upgrade as well.
