12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 11

[tynkerbell]

Does anyone have any Valium? I should know better than to do things like this....they make me panic. My control freak self has lots of issues when things feel uncertain. I had everything figured out until yesterday. Now I feel like I am back at square one and I don't know what to expect!

Am I the only one that does this?

I am EXACTLY this way!! That's part of the reason why we're staying in a cat. 5. When we booked this cruise they were only offering cat. 6 GTY rooms, I freaked out- Had to know EXACTLY where I'd be staying so we paid more to book the cat. 5 so that I could pick my room.

I also have OCD and would be freaking out just like you are right now. But try to relax, think of all the money you're saving and know that everything will work out in the end. You'll have a great time on this trip.

I am breathing down because she went into work today to get stuff done because 1) she is trying to get caught up for this week, 2) we need the hours and money from her because she is unpaid at DIS time, and 3) the sooner she focuses on work and gets work done, the sooner we can go home.

That's all I have to say about that.

Then her green light must be on because she is so busy working she forgot to close out the DIS tab.

After all if she really wanted to lurk and fool you she would just log off.

I was worried about naps to but then I started thinking that while I loved the light coming in it might be easier to get the kids down for a nap with it darker and it was not like I was looking out the window when they were napping either. I was resting on the bed or watching TV.

With all that said I feel sick to my stomach but what is done is done. We will see how it goes and hopefully it will be a good experience. Maybe it will save us money in the future if we decide the inside rooms are good enough.

I wish that I could guarantee that you will love it but I am pretty positive.

My DW and I said we always wanted to encourage everyone else to go for verandahs because we didn't want people to find out how nice (and CHEAP) the inside cabins are! If everyone goes for inside cabin then the prices are going up. So let's keep this our DISBoard secret!

 

[tynkerbell]

How could they NOT know? Our pictures are almost in the post office by now...

 

[brack]

it's sad when I get a thrill over Disney reservations!

I understand completely. It is almost as much fun to plan the trip as to take the trip.

 

[Castlepixie]

No you are not alone we are on deck 2 also...

We are on Deck 2 also! 2606!!!

Speaking of thrills from odd places .... as I was driving to work today I saw RCL's Grandeur of the Seas docked in Baltimore harbor. It made me think of boarding the Magic in 28 days! :

Annette will be in one and DrHug and I will be in the other two. However, feel free to come on up and enjoy that wonderful warm room to the right of us, and of course the two steam rooms and the showers.

 

[brack]

whoo hooo 49191 and I didn't even notice!

 

[brack]

Can I hang with Annette!, lol. I have some spare $$ to splurge with now.

Pj

Come on up we'll share.

Heck we can just take over the whole Rainforest!

 

[Castlepixie]

Is there a chat tonight & how do I get there?

 

[DrHug]

YAY Brack! Way to go

 

[DrHug]

YAY Brack! Way to go

Hmmmmm. That didn't work too well. I tried a copy and paste.

We are late dining, but we were before. And, we aren't linked to your dinng seating info, either....... So I'm not much help! But at least I'm boosting the post count by one!

That's funny...the fact that you were aware enough that your response really was helpful in a Becka kinda way.

Is there a chat tonight & how do I get there?

I would like to know too..

[becka]

Is there a chat tonight & how do I get there?

There should be one at 9 PM Eastern. I finally remembered to bookmark chat on my home PC so I don't have it here but usually someone leaves a link behind in the thread on Friday nights so people can find us.

 

[Castlepixie]

Sorry to lose you as a cabin neighbor Becka! Happy you saved so much$$$

Question for anybody, how are we distributing our DIS goodies? Will we search each cabin for a Christmas stocking? I will feel like a Christmas elf!

 

[becka]

... in a Becka kinda way.

I'm not quite sure how to take that so I will assume the best!

 

[brack]

FYI

anyone who is meeting up with us at WDW precruise (so far no one ) and happens to meet my grandma, mom, sis, her BF and bro.

DO NOT MENTION that you have heard all about them on an internet message board. They would probably go buy a laptop and connect in their hotel rooms trying to find out exactly what I have been saying about them.

My DW and I are sitting with your Mom at dinner right? What am I supposed to say when I slip up and mention something V wrote on the internet about her?

 

[BuzzBoyMom]

I checked and we are still main dining and we have the same reservation number.

Actually I was suprised that they already assigned us a room number - #6539. It looks like it is 2 doors toward midship away right by the front elevators. I wonder how much motion you would feel if you are behind the front elevators? I loved using the aft elevators with it being so close to the Mickey pool and drink station but hopefully we will like this as well.

I am still nervous but excited. Things really are getting so much closer!!!

6539?!!!! 6539?!!!!

You're across the hall from me Becka!!! I'm in 6540!!!!!
