12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 7

[pyramid2000]

Has anyone ever noticed there is "related threads" box at the bottom of the page? I just did and mine says:

"Unusual" MK Parade Question
"Resale Shops" - Where to find?
"Deadbeat Dads" ( or moms )
Special "beer" report
"Formal" night on 3 and 4 night cruises

Is this what they think we are talking about???
Or is from our Geek name??

 

[pyramid2000]

I need to go and get DD. If I don't get back, have a great day!!

 

[MommyMinnie]

But then we all know that the length of the weapon that is not necessarily more important as one's skill in using that weapon.

Am I the only one a little shocked that ANGIE is the one saying this? I expect it from V or Brandi, etc.. but not from our dear sweet Angie! What have we done to her?

Remember how many children and grandchildren Angie has.

I am with you Lisa - I have never had anything dry in the crock pot!

I've had things come out dry quite often. I think it's if I cook it on high for too long or use too large of a crockpot. I bought a smaller one and it seems to work better when I make the chicken breasts. Also cooking on low helps.

 

[MommyMinnie]

My DD might want to chat too.

Bring her on! I'm going to feel safer with my DD doing E-mails than Disboarding (too public). I'll try to get her to Email some kind of opening to your girl at your address tonight.

FYI I was trying to look up tween hairstyles last night looking for something to do with her hair on formal night and Woo Hoo! Don't try that Google search without some kind of porno block!

 

[tynkerbell]

I almost said oh I'll just wait since I was feeling better and then started feeling crappy again and guess what the visit showed..drum roll...pneumonia.

I'm so glad you went! That happened to me once. I had this really awful cough that I couldn't shake but I kept ignoring it, figuring it would finally let up but I broke out in this really bad case of hives. These hives were bigger than 50 cent pieces and they itched so bad that DH finally told me to go to quick care. While there the doctor heard me cough and insisted on a chest xray and found pneumonia! Scary stuff.

I'm glad you're on the mend now.

 

[tynkerbell]

Oh and may I just say Z-pak bites the big one. I know this stuff works but the side effects - I thought I'd have at least a day. It's like add insult to injury.

I have such a hard time on antibiotics. If it's your stomach make sure to eat a little something when you take it and eat lots of yogurt while you're on it.

Holy Cow - so many of you were here for the 28 milestone and then you all dis-da-peared (as my son says).

Gosh - I was stuck in a morning long meeting and now I'm wolfing down lunch to head to a VTC all afternoon. boo hoo!

Karen, I've noticed we scatter like dust in the wind after a milestone. I guess the work just takes it out of us.

Pj, You can get a few foils done at any salon (try 10 to start) and that will give you alot of blond highlight and look really natural as it grows in. It will look great with your now darker hair.

DD and I have been getting highlights for about 4-5 yrs now and it really adds some depth/illusion of volume (through color variation) to hair.

Kristin, I don't need no more volume. Oy! I have so much hear with a wave and it is fine, so If I were to blow dry it, it takes 45 mins. So I don't. It goes up in a twist held by a clip and dries naturally. You will get to see the puffy hair on the cruise, lol .

Every 6 months my salon has a free highlight special, just foils on top, and I have chickened out twice, but will get a cut in October and get the highlights this time.

Well I was hoping my car would be ready to pick up around lunch but I just called and it sounds like it will be later today. I guess that means I am doing lunch here at work. I know I need to be good today so maybe I will just grab a salad.

I am getting a bit of a headache and I am not real sure why. I only had about ½ can of Diet Pepsi this morning so maybe I just need some more caffeine or maybe it is just a hunger headache.

When I got home last night I did watch that Brothers & Sisters show that was on after DH. It was pretty interesting but I spent the first 45 minutes just trying to keep everyone straight. I am still not sure I have everyone straight. It was interesting enough that I think I will at least record it this next week to watch. If it is a good show and if I continue to watch Studio 60 that will mean that I will have added 2 new hours of TV each week! Of course since they put My Name is Earl on against Survivor that is actually ½ hour less so my net would still be 90 minutes additional per week.

Did anyone mention that we only have 73 days left until we cruise? It is actually getting close enough that I am thinking I need to come up with some way to let the kids “count” down the days. I was thinking of a paper chain or something that they could tear off each night or maybe a sticker chart with 70 boxes and they can put a Disney sticker on each night? We all know it can’t be anything too crafty!

 

[becka]

I was thinking about getting the blonde highlights in my hair again just before we cruise. I am going to be at the salon a lot before the cruise. I want my hair done plus I have my birthday manicure/pedicure.

 

[pjpoohbear]

funny girl!!




and back to the hair. Used to be during the summer, mine would get blonde streaks all on its own....now that I have to be a grown up and have a job, not so much.

Same here, it was family thing. I go them around the face. My older cousin got a streak down the underside at the back, looked very cool in a ponytail.

OK - I saw that last night and meant to comment on it, but got too tired.

Lisa - is this something new, or did we just never notice?

BTW - mine also lists "Mature Couples" - I don't think I like what they are trying to tell me . . . I think of myself as more "immature".

Congrats Becka

Becka,
I have a countdown chain and it is depressingly long. DD isn't even interested in ripping off links with me.

 

[MommyMinnie]

Oh Becka!
Before our last cruise, we counted down by watching a different Disney movie every day.

So there is another one who does not like bones in their food. DH is like that. He claims he can't figure out how to get the meat off the bones. I just think it is laziness! I really just cannot understand this for the life of me and it makes grocery shopping much more expensive when you can only buy boneless chicken breasts rather than just getting a chicken.

It isn't lazinesss....who on earth wants to see a nasty bone on their plate!

 

[87Heel]

So the dividing line between the twins grows: Now, in addition to crafts, meat with bones stands between them!

 

[klineyqueen]

Are you sure you are not already pegged as a total nut to your family?

Not a total nut....just a little "off"....

 

[becka]

It isn't lazinesss....who on earth wants to see a nasty bone on their plate!

Not on the plate - It is like those giant turkey legs and you just hold onto the bone while you eat away at it.

Besides with DH I think it is just laziness. When I buy those grocery store rotessiere chickens that DH likes he claims he doesn't know how to get the meat off of it.
