12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 3

[becka]

I just love this... it's like a family reunion.

It really is the 7 degrees of dis!

Cool! We get one degree more than Kevin Bacon!!! Or maybe that should be Kevin Yee....

Kim - Have a great time at the fair and could you eat something fried for me like funnel cake? I didn't get to the fair this year and I love fair funnel cakes. I wonder if they can make me one on the Magic? I bet I could order one when I get upgraded!

 

[lbgraves]

Karen!!! You have made the local news here! I swear! The lead in just said.....it's half way thru the work week. Are your coworkers on your nerves? You are not alone. Find out why after the break.

 

[lbgraves]

The survey says the number one cause of office stress is coworkers & their annoying habbits. They rate talking too loud on the phone & whining about work as the top reasons. 40% are looking for a new job because of this. Their suggestion? Find a way to relieve frustration...work out (or DIS ). Try to work it out with the coworker. OR don't go into the office at all...work from home. Not sure if they showed your picture or not, Karen.

We are card addicts!! We also like Phase 10. Did you ever play Phase 10 Dice? It is basically the same except you use dice instead of cards. It goes faster as well.

Brandi, that sounds great, especially on the plane. I will have to check out Dufferin Game Room, they have dice of all kinds. I could use the assignment cards from the card version, right?

Hmmmm....note warning to all those on deck 2....avoid the starboard hallway!!!!

Even being home early with another episode(get results this weekend,) and having a headache (thanks Kim,) This made me laugh out loud.

I had planned on having the characters sign a bowl of plastic fruit for me. I was going to give Kim the banana and Todd the coconut!

That is just too funny!!!!!

 

[pjpoohbear]

You are so generous to be willing to make that sacrafice for everyone, Becka!

OK...am I the only one who didn't know who Anderson Cooper's mother is???

Who is Anderson Cooper's mother? Or will I find this out as I read the next page, lol.

[klineyqueen]

You all know I don't feel well and DD took 1 3/4 hours to get to sleep last night so I just threw my clothes on the floor and you know what? The dog ate my bra. I am not kidding. No more hooky things or anything, just shreds...

Kim

You can't be serious!! I guess you can just fly free for a little while!!!!!

 

[klineyqueen]

No, but everything seems really sad today after the bra thing. At 7-11 they overcharged me by 33 cents and I was just to tired to fight them, then they put mayo on my tuna sandwich. Who puts mayo on tuna, there is already mayo in tuna. It was such a dissapointment. Then I decided maybe it's the steroids and they are making me crazy. Of course if DH were home, he could tell me that I should not be so upset over the overcharging of my Diet Coke refill, but he is not so it took me all day to figure it out..

So I am going to the fair tonight with DD and have a pity party for myself. I will be having an entire carmel apple this evening and I will not feel guilt.

Whew, I sound whiney... Sorry!

Kim

Have fun at the fair and enjoy that apple!!!!!!

 

[elaineteresa]

Excuse me all if I have to ask for explanations of things that I am still trying to get a handle on.

I would love to be linked to the group fo rthe 8pm seating. We thought that would work better for our family. This way we can see the show with the kids then they can hit the kids club while we eat a LONG dinner. This will help me eat less so may actually be a great plan - I get too sleepy at night to have much but maybe my internal clock will change onboard.

Thanks again for the fireworks!!! welcomes and all the friendly hellos!!

elaine, Ken (DH), Giona (DS - jonah), Jaea (DD - jaya), Martha (MIL)

 

[pjpoohbear]

Kim, I have heard tale about something to do with a deep fried chocolate bar! Seem to live at county fairs, you should ask around tonight. (Ps. I knew it was my turn for the headache, )

[elaineteresa]

LOL - I am assuming this refers to the Juicy Couture woman on an earlier cruise - hey cruises are for letting it all hang out I guess - do they so henna tattooes onboard?
I'll bring my low rise yoga pants then

 

[pjpoohbear]

Elaine, welcome!

ASK QUESTIONS, there is no other way to catch up with this group. Sheesh, they talk enough they can use some of the hot pixie dust to answer question too, lol.

[elaineteresa]

Mrs Mork - I think my MIL is not quite your contemporary -she is 85. She is very outgoing though and will enjoy all company. She is quite excited to be cruising again.

My twins were born in Jan. and my son finally started using the potty about 2 weeks before he returned to pre-school - he was 3 yrs. 8 mos. Then we spent another full year having flush and toilet smell trauma including several trips to WDW with the electronic evil eye toilets.

It does pass.

See, Elaine, already past the cruise stuff and on to potties, lol.

I am impressed! You have been doing your research for the cruise.

Just send the info with your family information and I will include you on the list. There is a blurb about linking in the first post too.

ROFL! DS was taught by DH to stand on the side of the toilet so he didn't trigger the automatic sensor...thus eliminating the problem with the noise. DD is still too short to activate the sensor so she is fine too.

See! I took some time to read the DVC forums which I have neglected for the cruise forum and now I am SO far behind in this thread.

Of course reading the DVC forums which led me to mouseplanet (and all the other DVC related forums I've neglected), I started reading about AKL and CR "proof" of new things coming. Oh man! Don't they understand we need a new car! I want a MacBook. I've said I'd add on to a CR DVC in a heart beat due to its location well that was the case until I heard rumors last year re AKL which we love. So that became the new "in a heart beat" location. There goes good ol' Veruca Salt singing in my ear again ! Will she ever quiet down?!
