12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 8

[Bella2000]

Oops sorry Joy - Happy Birthday I am still behind (since Thurday).

 

[becka]

I see a few of you now.

 

[becka]

I like this one too so Joy gets two Happy Birthday smilies!

 

[Bella2000]

Everyone still out for the day?

Hi Becka. I'm here. We just came back from Macaroni Grill.

DH asked if I was using the computer in my office. I wondered whether it was a trick question as I was sitting in our bedroom using the ibook. "Why?" I asked cautiously. He got this disturbed look on his face like why is this a production?! He wanted to watch Heroes. I offered to let him use the ibook and he said"Why would I want to watch something on an iBook when I can watch it on a 23" monitor.

Now I am thinking "quick how can I deter him" but what could I say "I don't want you using my computer because I think I am still logged in and my main page may be he cruise meet thread or heaven forbid I forgot to close something down and you see that I was chatting late never mind talking to those DIS strangers via conference call until 2A." Double Oy. So instead I said "No problem"

So were you logged on or not? I'm dyin' here!

PS I'm all out front with my DIS addiction to DH. But I do get an occasional "Why do you talk to them more than you talk to me?"

 

[becka]

Hi Becka. I'm here. We just came back from Macaroni Grill.

We got a Macaroni Grill here about a year ago. We have been for lunch twice and it was pretty good but not great. I keep thinking that I am just not ordering the right things.

 

[becka]

Obviously the DIS is no secret here. Of course we also keep our computer in the living room with the TV so it would be impossible to hide.

 

[87Heel]

Are you planning to warn them Marielle?

They may have heard me mention once or twice that I "read about it on a Disney cruise message board." And I'm sure I told them about Karen, since we have same town links.
But remember that the rest of my cruising family group lives in 3 other states, so it's not like we chat on an everyday basis. Hmmm. Of course I do chat with my crazy people from the internet on a regular basis....

Patsy! I've heard that one myself. LOL!! Too tired to talk to anyone else but I can get on that computer.

I didn't see the green light on my name earlier so I don't think it was signed on but was it on the screen - don't know. He does have his own sign on so he may have signed me off and himself on. I hear the show playing so I'm assuming all is fine. If I was still signed on he would have just shaken his head and called me weird.

DH is forcing me to quote myself so he is cause of the RealMickey.

DH wants to say (but I won't let him log in so I am letting him post under me) that: It is also very hard to hide the laughing!

 

[MMcCarthy]

You guys are posting madmen!

I am going as fast as Evelyn Woods, and I cannot get caught up!

I need to go walk the dog, and then I need to go get ready for the game.

Have some mercy on me!

BTW - Missy, while I love OSU, my Alma Mater is Akron, which is now leading Cincinnatti 14-10.

UC hasn't had a football team ever that I know of. I just can't support OSU. I'm glad your an Akron fan instead.

isn't that funny?! I will have the worst day and go sign on and read everyones day and laugh and I feel so much better when prior to that I am thinking if I have to interact with another human being I think I'll scream.

 

[MMcCarthy]

We need one of those laywers with the fancy 1-800 numbers....

Nah get the ones that are on the billboard with a shark fin out their back & saying "really we are not sharks"

Pasta Milano no mushrooms

 

[becka]

Take the deal Becka!!!

NO DEAL!!!

Now where is Howie Mandel offering me $387,000?

 

[MMcCarthy]

I drove the CRV again and also drove the Pilot for good measure. I am so glad I did. Three years ago I hated the CRV and loved the Pilot. This time I liked both (love the power in the Pilot) but felt the Pilot felt too big. I thought if I yelled toward the back I'd get an echo back. So I think I'm leaning toward the CRV. The question now is Nav or not.

we got a new Dodge Grand Caravan. It came with Nav & I thought no way I will ever use it. Well I have gotten lost and found my way home with the Nav. The Nav has all the Disney resorts in it and how long it will take to get to them. The map is really kind of neat--the voice is annoying because it seems like she is yelling at me. our next car will have Nav also.

 

[Bella2000]

The Nav has all the Disney resorts in it and how long it will take to get to them.

My Pavlovian response was - Disney Resorts?! - well then Nav it is!

 

[becka]

Disney = Good!

I can compete with your bad day. I left the boards earlier to go to DS soccer game. Well we left at 3:30 thinking we had a 4pm game. the game started at 2:30. My DH assists the coach who had to leave at 3:30. we caught the last 5 minutes of the game. two other fathers were coaching. the team lost 2 to 1 with no subs. I felt sooooo bad. I emailed the coach and apologized. Hopefully he won't hold it against DS

 

[Bella2000]

Cold here! We were discussing taking the a/c out the windows when we noticed the temp for Monday is in the 70s. We turned it on this past week as well (one day was tshirt/shorts weather). Typical New England.
