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

[BuzzBoyMom]

Did I read...oh....several hundred pages ago... ...that someone took the manifest and the ships layout and put people's name on thier cabin locations?

Just asking b/c I wanted to start to do that but I'm having trouble pulling a readable ships deck layout.

If someone has done that - let me know so I can cross this off my list.

THANKS!!!

I love jury duty and always hope that I get called!! It just seems that most times I get called we are going on vacation and I have to be excused! Alathough the last time I went I was in the courtroom but never made it to the jury box and another time I sat all day waiting to be called and the defendent ended up taking a deal at the last minute.

I also wanted to do jury duty. I never had the chance yet, but I want to. Always cancelled or excused before. Call me crazy, but I think he it would be very interesting. My mom has been too many times to count. She always gets picked!

 

[lillygator]

my sister....drives me crazy. Somehow she thinks the whole world is supposed to revolve around HER....

She just called, got her Halloween party tickets and wants to know if I included her and her boyfriend in our dinner plans which I made like 150 days ago. That would be a no dear.

She hung up on me! Brat!

Here is your Monday Laugh.....got it via email...had pictures...but they don't copy well...



Eat right!

Make sure you get your daily dose of fruits and veggies.

Take your vitamins and bump up your vitamin C.

Get plenty of exercise because exercise helps build your immune system.

Walk for at least an hour a day,

go for a swim,

take the stairs instead of the elevator, etc.

Wash your hands often.

If you can't wash them, keep a bottle of antibacterial stuff around.

Get lots of fresh air. Open doors & windows whenever possible.

Try to eliminate as much stress from your life as you can.

Get plenty of rest.

OR

Take the doctor's approach.
Think about it...
When you go for a shot, what do they do first?
They Clean your arm with alcohol...
Why?
Because Alcohol KILLS GERMS.
So.......

I walk to the liquor store. (exercise)

I put lime in my Corona...(fruit)

Celery in my Bloody Mary (veggies)

Drink outdoors on the bar patio..(fresh air)

Tell jokes, laugh....(eliminate stress)

Then pass out. (rest)

The way I see it...

If you keep your alcohol levels up, flu germs can't get you!

My grandmother always said, "A shot in the glass is better than one in the __s!"


Live Well - Laugh Often - Love Much

This too should be out Dis Group Motto!!!!

 

[BuzzBoyMom]

My DH just went to bed. I think I am going to join him. Good night my friends!

Gosh....ever since Date Night...you just keep wanting to be with that DH. He's getting in the way of Dis-bonding!!!

 

[lillygator]

My grandmother always said, "A shot in the glass is better than one in the __s!"

amen!


and I do recall DIS'ers from last year voting me most likely to pull a Cristi?

 

[lillygator]

will Santa Claus 3 be on our ship?
and they will be playing Pirates 2 right?

 

[lillygator]

and Desperate Housewives is so not meeting my expectations this year. I wish Six Feet Under were still on and SATC.
What happened to all the juicy stuff? Was it too much for regular TV?

 

[becka]

Becka - your DS is allergic to nuts, etc?

and I guess I never realized the peanut butter was age 2!!

No not my DS but my DH. Thankfully DS does not have the same allergies and so far it is looking good for DD. She is not allergic to beans or peas so we are hoping not to nuts either but we are pretty careful about keeping her away from them until she is at least 2.

Dishwasher Salmon with a Piquant Dill Sauce

4 6-ounce salmon fillets
4 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
heavy duty aluminum foil

Prep

1. Cut two 12-inch square sheets of aluminum foil.
2. Place two fillets side by side on each square and fold up the outer edges.
3. Drizzle 1 tablespoon lemon juice over each fillet. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Fold and pinch the aluminum foil extra tightly to create a watertight seal around each pair of fillets. Make sure the packet is airtight by pressing down on it gently with your hand. If air escapes easily, rewrap.
5. Place foil packets on the top rack of the dishwasher. Run dishwasher for the entire "normal" cycle.
6. When cycle is complete, take out salmon, discard foil, place one fillet on each plate, and spoon a generous serving of dill sauce overtop.
Don’t have a dishwasher? Bake foil-wrapped packets in a preheated 400°F oven for 12 minutes.

We have officially entered a new realm....diswasher recipes. Only on this thread!!!

wow - the hospital that administered the wrong dose of medications on three newborns killing them, just administered a wrong dose of painkillers on an 18 year old mother to be in for an induction.

Scary!

 

[bubbasmom99]

Joy and Tana will appriecate this...

I FINISH MY FIRST CJ CIRCLE TODAY! And it was a DIS DCL CJ, we had 8 members and we are only one month behind, woo hoo. It was a blast, I have signed up for a second DIS CJ and really find that it makes me scrap instead of thinking about or just shopping for scrapping, lol

Pj

That is great! I gave up on my CJ... out of 12 people, we had 2 go MIA almost immediately, and a couple others who decided not to return CJs once we decided to end the group early. Out of everyone, I think not even half got their CJs back. How pathetic is that?? (DisneyFreakJackie didn't get hers back, and that sucks because she does such great work in everyone else's book!)

 

[BuzzBoyMom]

wow - the hospital that administered the wrong dose of medications on three newborns killing them, just administered a wrong dose of painkillers on an 18 year old mother to be in for an induction.

Scary!

I read an article that it was the doctor's fault...but did the doctor write the wrong scrip or did the nurse program the machine incorrectly. I read that the machine was programmed to put out pain meds in 1 hour when they were supposed to be dispersed over 10 hours. Yikes!

 

[MrsMork]

My aunt had hers delayed for a payed in full vacation. It really wasn't a big deal.

Jury duty can be delayed here for vacation also.

 

[BuzzBoyMom]

Alright fellow creative Disers...need your help...

A friend of mine's parents will be having their house destroyed since the kind State of PA is taking over the land for a highway. They live near Philly. She is looking for an idea of what they can take/do as a keepsake from the house before it gets destroyed.

I mentioned take window moulding/doorframe moulding and create either a picture frame or mirror.

Anyone else have any ideas? Thanks!

 

[MrsMork]

wow you are brave!

I took the girls to Chuck E Cheese once for a birthday party, I was alone....and OMG. They needed some kind of drug for the parents at the door. I have not heard so much screaming and carrying on in my life. I was so worn out at the end and the girls were just raring to go!

Hate Chuck E Cheese. That rat scares me. Almost as bad as math!

 

[lillygator]

Lisa - on our cruise website....precruise plans section...we are actually arriving on the 7th, MVMCP that night and staying at the Poly.

are we (anyone) meeting at the party? You'll get to meet my zany Drama Queen sister (among a few others I am sure) I think my mom and Grandma are crashing our good times as well. But my mom is staying through the 10th...so maybe some alone time out!

 

[MrsMork]

wow - the hospital that administered the wrong dose of medications on three newborns killing them, just administered a wrong dose of painkillers on an 18 year old mother to be in for an induction.

Scary!

That is scary. Wow! three deaths and still making same errors.

 

[Jhalkias]

I don't hear a tiny implication that we don't "work" do I? Technically, I did put in over 40 hours a week on PTO business last year.

Now Lisa would I EVER imply that?

Ooh I almost forgot - DD loved her first iceskaing session. She and DH unfortunately did have a bit of a commotion en route to the rink. He hit something (thinks the manhole cover was off in the street) but what ever it was ripped the tire to shreds. He was fortunately by the rink when it happened to he could get into it and call AAA. Another unfortunate mark to replace the Saturn sooner vs. later (bummer) and reminds me that since it has a donut on it I will probably need to drop DH off at the train station...
OK - really got to get to sleep then....

So glad your dd is enjoying ice skating! Last year my oldest took a class, so my ds4 (3 at the time) just skated around the other end of the rink with the training thing. He picked it up quite a bit faster, I think it was better to start him so young and with a big snowsuit for padding so he wasn't afraid of falling! There are little 2 year olds out there whizzing around. Now I take them to open skate as much as I can. I do not enjoy it at all but they sure love it and I'd rather be skating around then sitting on the bench watching them and freezing my tush off.

I can't believe the tire was ripped to shreds, wow. What a bummer!
