Night Becka!

John, I got red carded, darn rules. (he will understand, maybe)

I understand . . .

Forgot to tell you PJ, not until I went back and reviewed my crazy ranting did I realize you were on the sidelines the whole time. I was so furiously posting that I did not notice anyone was there until near the milestone.

BTW - I've been trying to catch up while on the phone or doing something else at work (Gemini, you know), and every time I get through another page, two more pages are added to the total pages on the next page! You guys better all go into chat tonight so that I can catch up!

That's such a coincedence... My DS birthday is on 12/17 and we were planning on celebrating it on the 15th on the cruise.

Are you planning anything else aside from the birthday cake at dinner? It would be fun to get together to celebrate.

I may get birthday stateroom package. DD is mortified at the idea of servers singing to her so she probably won't be interested in a cake at dinner. More than likely we will just overspend on souviners for her and call it a birthday expense.

I'm sure she will be happy to sing for your DS however. She's good like that.

I'll ask her when I see her tonight just to be sure.

bet I missed it

Well, if you don't request a cake at dinner, she can't be upset with you when it comes. I wont even be in the same seating so can just hear the reports from you guys.

I am almost not looking forward to the start of the new fall TV season. How any I going to watch my shows and keep up here? I don't watch too many shows but it starts to add up: How I Met Your Mother, Survivor, Amazing Race, Grey's Anatomy, Desperate Housewives and Apprentice plus there might be 1-2 new shows I will at least check out once or twice. What is a girl to do? I can barely keep up now!

Are you guys TV watchers also? Are you going to give up TV for the DIS this fall?

I have a three part spreadsheet . The sections include, TO WATCH, TO TAPE and TO TAPE ON MOMS VCR, lol. I need Tivo up here in Canada.

Hi Guys & Gals...

Becka! You funny girl... you brought out the competitive Virgo in me too!! Now... if I can just devise a plan to catch up to all the posts and write replies... I would be all set =)

My method:

1. Use quote button, this way they know what you are talking about.
2. reply
3. submit
4. page back
5. page back
6. keep reading

LOL

PJ - I'm a '74 baby too!

 

[tynkerbell]

Dody - you are a lucky girl!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, but that was my first pregnancy... the 2nd wasn't as painless because they didn't do the epidural right. Giving birth to DS was a complete nightmare.

That's close to what I do to. I also have a new strategy for keeping up with the backlog of posts.

Open Disboards.
Read the last two pages
Jump in
During slow spells go back and read the old stuff.

 

[pjpoohbear]

I had to ROFLMAO at the "bump." I doubt that this thread will ever get to the second page to need one of those.

Lisa, is gratitous(sp) bumping allowed on the DIS?

Pj

 

[tynkerbell]

I think you covered it all! I love to hear the "How we met" stories. They are usually .

I love those kind of stories too. I'm a romantic at heart and I always want to know couple's stories of how they met.

 

[tynkerbell]

Ya know - I feel like the tag fairy, b/c I read everyone's post thinking...hmm...that's a good like, I wonder if it could fit on a button....so maybe I'm the button fairy.


But that line would sure make a good tag!

LOL... you need to make yourself a button that says "Button Fairy"

Easier to just open up a new window with a reply & copy & paste the things to quote to answer.

Thanks PJ... so there is a method to the madness here! I will be definately keeping up... I hope.

Questions, so is there really a scheduled time to chat? where do I go to chat?

 

[tynkerbell]

Banner....
Button...
Banner....
Button....

Either works!

I just want to know if you all will promise to wear the button that is made for you?!!

Ok, but maybe not on formal night... unless I wear shorts and flip flops that night, then maybe.

 

[pjpoohbear]

WHAT?! No TIVO in Canada?!

No TIVO! We just began Sat Radio in the Spring, lol. We do have digital Personal Digital Recorders, from our cable providers, sort of like TIVO, but the PVR does get to know you like TIVO does. And the PVR is on top of digital cable so a monthly bill would be over $100/mnth, just for watching TV. I do fine with standard cable, 65 channels is enough for me.

Pj

 

[lillygator]

I wish they had a create your own cable channel package!

 

[pjpoohbear]

Easier to just open up a new window with a reply & copy & paste the things to quote to answer.

That would reduce my post count, lol. I would just catch up all in one post, then.

We are parasailing, I am hoping to talk DH into the first stop at CC. Let's get the parasailing group together and pick some good times to go. If we all have a 1st 2nd and 3rd option we might be able to get into the same boat.
Unless Lisa has a better idea.

It would be great to have a boatful of DISers parasailing. It's more fun when I make a fool of myself around friends than complete strangers.
