[becka]

Duhhhhhhhhh . . . .

Did not realize I was still on last night's posts - I am a bit behind.

John1

Guess I should have read a few more posts too.....

 

[becka]

HELL YA!!!


We won!! (sorry for the French)


and let me say - the calls were so flippin' RIDICULOUS!


I attribute the win to me.....I am wearing a nice silk Gators night gown, I ripped the strap cheering (or trying to), held it together with the $1.99 Incredibles pin (cause ya'll know I can't sew!)...waving my Gator fans, burning the candles....screaming, waking the girls up multiple times....dropping to my knees to pray every now and then, performing a little voo doo on Ainge, and just generally sweating it out!



as Mic HUbert would say "OH MY"!!!

You are quite the fan!!!!

 

[becka]

I told Johnny that I signe dup for streaking across the deck.....in a very serious tone...


he wanted to know if this was somethign I had to be up at 3am to sign up for and if we would win anything???????????????

Well you do know if you don't sign up at 3 AM you won't get the best streaking places....you might be relegated to streaking by the medical center on Deck 1. That would be so sad....

V, I was drawn to that game last night too. It is all Johns fault, he talked football last week, now I have to find a game on Saturday and we'll see if the same is true tonight, lol. I guess I will be ready to watch a game on the ship, lol.

And one might not get to leave the medical centre after the streak.

Only if someone slips me some tequila and gives me a rose!

Will rum work? I think I know someone who might have some with him on the cruise...

 

[becka]

kim, please don't scare the new kids.

Pj

I think she had to be scared long before Kim showed up.

 

[becka]

Aaron, See if you can get one through your company account. We get our first line people laptops for about $400. Dell puts the wireless right in for us and microsoft office. If your company doesn't have a business account, I bet Becka's does...

That's pretty funny!!!!! You must be a much nicer company than ours. Even though we work for the two largest employers in our area they don't provide anything like that for regular employees.

 

[becka]

Too funny! Is it Drugs? Is it Alchohol? Is it shoplifting? NO it's a Crockpot purchase.

Do it! Do it! Do it!!!

 

[becka]

Good Morning!

I have to say, after I posted my last post, I had to go back to work and then do some shopping. How does every catch up on the posts?
I am sad to day that I now have to get ready for another day at work, sunday, yuk, and I am only on page 1652 so far! This sounds like a great bunch!

Thanks for the tip on the crock pot liners. We don't have a dishwasher and I try to find all the easy ways out.

Can't wait to get off work and catch up!

It is nice to see you again. We thought for sure you would run away screaming from us by now.

Unfortunately the thread moves fast and it becomes a full time job....but it is so much more fun than my real jobs. It is worth the time if you can manage because there are some great people here!

 

[becka]

And one might not get to leave the medical centre after the streak.

Pj

We know there is a morgue and a brig on the ship. Is there also a psychiatric facility? Maybe a big padded room they can put us in?

 

[becka]

Well I think I am caught up now. I think I posted almost a full page in response to you guys from last night.

DS has a birthday party at 1:30. It is storming here today and the party is at a local park. I wonder if they will still have it if it is storming. I need to call the Mom and see if there are any backup plans.

 

[becka]

Kim - Here is a new smilie for you!

 

[DisneyVegas1]

Todd - does that pirate flag come with gromets or something so that it will lash to the balcony? - we have the navigator's verandah - not sure if we will be able to do that or not but we can try.

elaine

It does come with two gromets , I am going to add to more so I can hang ours horizontal on the Balcony ..

I think often the corp. has these deals with Dell and others but the same discount is not rolled out to employee purchases. It might have something to do with the support offered or warranties.

We need a new laptop as well - our screen is kaput. We love this Toshiba but it just didn't seem to hold up.

Ok John, the first program called handbrake, works very well. My only complaint is that on the iPod a wide screen movie get the two side cut off. So if you have seen the movie before, not such a bad thing. Takes a couple of hours to rip and then minutes to up load to the iPod.

Can we all guess what movie I chose to be the first on my iPod? Captain?

Pj

POTC ...as it should be ...LOL

 

[elaineteresa]

It is cold in the Hudson Valley already as well. 40's at night. We sat out for the first movie at the drive-in last night but just too cold for the second one.

It's supposed to be 80 today and we have soccer and the first bday party of the season. Now we get invited from the old pre-school group and the new K group. ugh. I hope this will be the last year for that. Next year should start the SMALL parties with just the few friends right? age 7.

[elaineteresa]

thanks Todd for the info about the flag - we will order one too.

[elaineteresa]

Make sure you get your postcard requests in if anyone wants to have us send on from WDW this week - we leave on thursday.

Sadly, if they put all of us in a big padded room, we'd turn it into the fun place to be within 15 minutes.
1. Todd would have some rum stashed in his hat
2. Becka would have smiley giveaways
3. Kim would get us some concierge service
4. Lisa would make sure her people got us anything else we wanted
5. Brack & DrHug would photograph it all
6. Anything else?????
