[tynkerbell]

Well, Spend that week at WDW in a nice resort.

Ohhh, good idea!!! Hadn't even thought of that.

 

[tynkerbell]

I will go ahead and speak for DH and tell you other guys that he will want the couch. He feels more at home that way....

 

[BuzzBoyMom]

Now you all were wishing you were on deck 5 aft with me, right?

Pj

Pj....we love you...even if you are on Deck 5...come on up and party with us!

 

[DrHug]

You know what I said about Brandi being the iPod post child - well now I'm catching up reading backwards and came to Dennis' posts. Add him to the list - they can dance in silhouette together! When I read your posts I hear that Roberta Flack song playing, wind blowing and you guys running towards your iPods.

The cool thing is everytime Apple comes out with new versions you get that same feeling if you happen to purchase it. How cool is that?!

That is pretty cool! Now if I could just interface it with my Palm based cell phone......hmmmm.??? That would be awesome.

 

[87Heel]

Yes it is!!


Also - the sangria....the TR writer is holding out until she finishes up her report the details. I had not heard of it on DCL before...has it been discussed on the boards and I missed it?

The horror!

You know, V, we count on you for this kind of research. Like Brack and Dennis cover cameras and Pj, John, Carla cover Apple products, you are our resource for the wine onboard. Karen is your assistant researcher, I believe.

 

[BuzzBoyMom]

I was really just wondering because I was hoping not to have to stand outside the whole time trying to keep my kids in line. However you do bring up an interesting point. If I am going down I want to go with a bunch of my friends in the boat with me!

Karen - Don't they usually line you up by stateroom number? That means you are the lucky winner of the "Has to stand next to an upset preschooler who wants to take off his clothes and an upset toddler would rather try to escape while throwing a screaming fit than wear a life jacket and be patient with the life boat drill while Mom (that's me ) prays for it to be over quick so she can drink away her frazzled nerves at the sailaway party" Contest!!!

I hope we do get to stand beside you....my boys will be happy to entertain your kids!!!

...think we can sneak a little drink at the lifeboat drill? We can tell the lifeboat person in charge that our name is Lisa G..

 

[DrHug]

OMG Amy!! What a tough day. I would have felt like sitting on the front step and cried. Why does that stuff always happen when you have so many things on your plate. I hope the week gets better!

What's so not funny is that I had a job, pre By Pass, that was like that EVERY DAY ! I used to thrive on the stress until it almost did me in. It's bad when 100 people want it now, ALL AT ONCE!

You or your boys may have to chase DD. I will be too weighted down with all of my buttons!

 

[BuzzBoyMom]

...um...do you want the one who wears Mickey pastees to chase your daughter or the other one?

 

[becka]

...um...do you want the one who wears Mickey pastees to chase your daughter or the other one?

Definitely with Mickey pastees....she loves Mickey stickers.

OK guy response....

They make Mickey Pastees

When I was a little girl I always said that I would marry my dad!

Oh yes! That was settled a little over a year ago. The next discussion was about how they both can't marry John's DD. Now DS has come to terms with the fact that he can only marry one girl.

A friend of mine, and fellow VietNam Vet, was once asked what it was like to be in VietNam. His answer really hit home with me and made me realize why I was so stressed all of the time too. He said to think about the 'Scaredest' you ever been in your life, then multiply that by 24 hours a day for 365 days. THAT was it exactly. I did 2 tours and was a mess with me and I'll Kick Your A** kinda person and that was not good. SO, now I am DrHug, and have adapted to the PTSD on my own. It's just not worth it to stress to death. I still get tweaked once in awhile, by something or someone, but am able to instantly cool down. Not to say I was a bad guy running around looking for trouble, but I did have a temper problem and if someone mistreated someone in a bad way, or cussed in front of my kids, or was overtly threatening in any way, I was in their face. Laughter and not taking life so seriously is much better. AH, poor MrsMork. How she must have worried about me. Sorry. But, hey....this is a good place to vent... I usually don't open up about that stuff too much. But...

I Feel Good.....................James Brown.

By the way....Happy Veteran's Day to all you Veterans out there. I was bunkered up for the weekend. And to all of the Awesome guys serving everywhere. I Salute you. I know the guys in Iraq and Afghanistan are feeling what I just described. God Bless you all.

AAAARRRRRRGGGGG!

Bewary Mateys, Becka the Pirate is sailin' about!

 

[lbgraves]

MGM is my least favorite with the kids. I love them all for a different reasons...here is our current park plan:

has Jake seen the Motor stunt show at MGM? Giona really liked it.

Both kids like that show however we had to change our plans to go to MGM on 12/7 because everything they talked about wanting to ride or see was at MK. Last time DD asked me when she was going to be able to ride something at MGM. There isn't a single ride there for her.

I uploaded Lonestar "Lonely Grill" to my itunes


Currently I am listening to "Don't let's talk about Lisa."

Yes, don't!!!

 

[87Heel]

wow DrHug. Thanks.

 

[lbgraves]

ummmm...Lisa?!!! That heat wasn't produced from water if ya know what I mean!

Um...yes it was! The water was very clear early in the day. It gets hot on deck 9 when you are in port.
