12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 9

[becka]

IBM is doing an upgrade to our mainframe this evening and us application people have to verify our systems after they are done so sometime between 11 pm tonight and 4-5 AM tomorrow morning I will get a call and have to get up to do some testing. Fun...fun!

DH just called me. He is on his way home from a job in MT. Pocono.....

We know Mt. Pocono! DH grew up just down the road from there......a bump in the road called Pocono Pines.

 

[ds2Mom]

look what you guys made me do! As a service to the geeks, I went to KFC and ordered a chicken pot pie. Here's what I got:

Definitely a crust there!

Yes!

(Besides, can you imagine how hard it would be to get a pot in those little boxes?!)

 

[ds2Mom]

It's Col. Sanders...he's not from Pennsylvania.

 

[ds2Mom]

DH has the tiniest clue that I chat with people coming on the cruise.

This is my DH, too. Vaguely knows about the DIS.....doesn't quite get it.

 

[ds2Mom]

Posting to myself again.

Note to self: Get a life.

[ds2Mom]

Nags Head, NC... second only to Castaway Cay for my idea of heaven right now!

Tana -- How cool you're in Nags Head! Great place!

[MrsMork]

Wanna talk math??

 

[becka]

Love the new smilie in your signature Angie!

 

[MrsMork]

Oh 40 sec

 

[becka]

I am DISing and researching toys for the kid Christmas gifts.

 

[MrsMork]

I've never done the wine or martini tastings on the ship. This time, for sure!

We did not do the tastings. We just ended each day at sessions and I tried a different one each night.

Morning all!
Thanks for listening to me whine last night - and I have great news!! I found the work mistake, and it wasn't a human error either!! Whoo hooo!!!

Happy Saturday....football day. We are on a bye - which I am sure is desperatly needed after that horrific loss....and did anyone see that Auburn is being fined for excessively LOUD music played during our 3rd downs? Not much, but also the SEC issued them a warning!


Ok - back to bed for me!

See ya!

That's great news about work Vanessa! It really seemed like it had gotten to you last night.
