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

[ds2Mom]

I understand your concerns with late dining. We were WLE on our last cruise and I was really worried about not getting switched over. My kids are not happy tired kids...they are CRABBY tired kids. People say not to worry about it but it is so stressful for me that I have zero fun because I can't relax.

This is another reason why I am so thankful to Lisa since she was able to move WLE to Early it is less stress for me.

Amen, sister! Been there, done that, 'aint doing it no more!

 

[becka]

No, but the day's not over yet!

If my laptop doesn't come back soon, they'll be wanting to put a bronze memorial plaque on the back of this chair I've been glue to for the past few days!!

I like you!!!

 

[becka]

I think it is time for a Diet Pepsi.

I wonder if I can convince DS to go get it for me?

 

[ds2Mom]

Okey, dokie....I left off at page 2163 yesterday. I have LOTS to catch up on?

Becka -- Want to give me the Cliff's Notes' version?

 

[becka]

I don't remember very much anymore. I know there was some funny stuff yesterday especially with Todd (DisneyVegas).

I'm a Diet Coke gal.

That's the only problem with being at the Library.....they won't let you have snacks near the computers! Every so often, I have to wonder up front to their "cafe" area and get my Diet Coke fix or I become

My brother (a disgustingly well off, single, no-kids, perfect-house kind-of-guy) once suggested I should go to the Betty Ford Clinic for Diet Coke Rehabilitation. (Disclaimer: The previous comment was made without any intention of casting aspersion towards any DISer reading this that may have been to the real BFC for serious stuff.)

 

[becka]

At least you can get your fix on the cruise. Those of us with Diet Pepsi addictions either have to bring our own or live without it for 7 days!!!

I was here when he so kindly and generously offered to have his CJS pic taken with our kids.

Thank you, Todd!

Hadn't seen POC1 for a while, so I pulled out the DVD last night to watch and by accident, put in the special features disc. I had never seen it! Wow! Amazing how much work went into those costumes, the sets, building the boats, etc.!!

I can't wait to see The Flying Dutchman at CC. I loved, LOVED POCII!

Todd is really a great guy! I think it is so generous of him to give up some of his own personal vacation time to do such a nice thing for the kids....and for the adults too!

A friend of mine and fellow DISer brings her Diet Pepsi with her!!

 

[becka]

If you have not figured it out yet we really have an amazing group of people together on this cruise. They are some of the nicest, funniest and most giving people I have ever had the pleasure to know. I can't wait to meet everyone!

Ditto this!

Hey Todd -- if you're out there reading this (or when you do read this).....love 'ya for doing this! Mean it!!

This is going to be a GREAT group!

I used to post a lot before our first cruise and really enjoyed doing it, getting to know the others.

Then had computer problems (do you detect a theme in my life here?!) in between our second cruise and the Panama Canal one last May. I would lurk now and then on the PC thread, but never joined in. I really missed being part of the DIS fun on that one and swore I wouldn't do it again.

So, you're stuck with me!

 

[ds2Mom]

Charlotte, we will all be having our pictures taken with the captain on Pirate night.

Yippee!

Once again, I say with the gratefulness of a true and devoted POC fan....thank you, Todd!

(I think I just might like POC more than my kids, even! I'm a serious movie nut!)

 

[ds2Mom]

I look forward to these meets .... anything to geet away from doing an audit.

Is there a mini-meet being planned in the general Maryland area?

 

[ds2Mom]

Becka, come back! I don't want to talk to myself!

 

[ds2Mom]

LOVE this smilie!!

 

[ds2Mom]

How sad. The newbie has scared away the only other person on the thread today.

I must be the only person without something to do today. Even sadder.

 

[becka]

I am still here!

 

[ds2Mom]

At least a TOP....all by my lonesone self.
