Come to think of it, do we know when Pirate Nite, Formal Nite, etc. are on this cruise? Is Pirate Nite still on St Maarten night? It was still Tropical Nite last time I cruised...

HEY -- T.O.P!!!!!!!!!!!! WOO-HOO!

Spray bottle isn't working? Persist. Make it the only punishment, do nothing else, no yelling, threatening gestures, nothing else, and it'll carry more weight. Also try for some kind of positive reinforcement as well when the cat is being good.

Oh, he reacts to being sprayed with water, no doubt. It's just that my BOTTLE isn't working. It's clogged, or something. He knows it too, just sits there and looks at me. Brat.

DH was the one that wanted to see Ladykillers. I take no responsibility.

No real idea when the 'night's are going to be or what they are going to be, there's no precedent for this trip, even with the hurricane cruise.

Get one of these: http://www.hasbro.com/supersoaker/

Seriously, it is one of those regular pump spray bottles with the adjustible spray thing on the front? If you can unscrew it all the way and wash it out.

I got my REAS added. What time are people doing Palo Brunch? Because my DU agent says "As a courtesy to guests booking this package, Disney is also taking advance reservations for brunch and high tea at Palo."

Dee - when I called on REAS Debbie (the DCL agent) said that our cruise wasn't set up yet as far as formal etc. and suggested I get in touch with Dreams (who we booked through). I gave all my requests to our Dreams agent. Just e-mailed her today to check and was told that Palo and Spa times aren't set for our cruise yet but should be soon. Will let you know if I hear anything differently. The DIS group is looking at doing bruch on the last sea day. I know Gail was able to get the private room but it won't hold all of us so some people are just booking that time and at least we'll all be there togehter.

Glad to see you posting here more. We know your wife so well, good to hear from you!

 

[MarkRG]

If you know her well than you know me reasonably well already. It's sometimes hard to figure out where a thought comes from with us, we do think in parallel a lot of the time, and the rest of the time it's a combination of the two of us. A lot of my lack of posting here is from two things, one, she usually answers before I do, and two, my internet time is more limited, no internet at work, and I do wear a moddie hat on another message forum, not related to here at all (it's a computer software forum). But a 4 day trip to nowhere gives me more time to drop in.

Just SHOOT me now!

Next time I mention doing "projects" someone better try to stop me. My back aches, my head aches, my feet are killing me......
but I have gotten some things done, so I guess it balances out.

We usually have dinner with our friends out my house on Saturday nights, but tonight, she cooked, and so we're headed for her house......and we are getting that storm that I doubted we'd get.
No hurricane, but windy enough for me.....sort of wish I were staying home.

I'll come back around when we get home. Need to pay some bills online anyway.

BTW.....more than half of my planned cruise wardrobe went kaput. Nothing fits, and I am NOT happy! Even tried on my closet full of shoes, and they all hurt my feet.
Actually, it was pretty funny. I kept trying different high heels while I was doing my things around here....laundry, etc. I don't know how June Cleaver stood it! LOL

Stacey, I invested in some ballroom shoes last year and they are super comfy. I'm not kidding. Well, they are great for dancing, but considering how much we dance anymore... They come in sparkly styles, I bought silver and wear them with all my evening get-ups. I'll find the web site.

PS. It's about time someone cooked for YOU.

 

[MarkRG]

Ok Stacey!

Dee I think I found your cat too, where's that squirt bottle...

 

[WDWLVR]

See what you all get for inviting him to post more

I must be really tired because when I first read Diana's post I thought you said you had bought some balloon shoes - not ballroom shoes.

 

[justmestace]

Please do, Diana!

You guys are funny.....I want Mark's smilies!

Off we go...

I hear ya, Stace! I bought cruise clothes for my weight in May '03. Had given away all my skinny clothes. By my Sept '03 and Nov '03 cruises I was 25 pounds lighter. So I gave away all my big clothes. Now, I need some of my big clothes back b/c my little clothes are too tight. I do NOT want to buy bigger clothes b/c I'd RATHER fit into my smaller ones!

Frances (Mrs. WVMD) and I went to Easton today and she took me in some really nice shops. Lots of cute clothes at one in particular (j.jill) but I REFUSED to buy anything my size....don't want to BE this size! I decided, and told my dd, "I'm going to buy a pair of socks here---really nice, fluffy, warm socks." So I went to pick out a nice color, turned them around and gasped!! I put them back, KT wanted to know why. I couldn't see spending $15 on a PAIR of socks. Wowie!! I DEFINITELY won't be buying anything there until I lose this weight again!!

Maybe getting off my butt would help!
Hey, speaking of, layer two went on the bathroom walls today!

Unless, of course you are late dinner and then the order will be reversed (thought it should be clarified so some don't rely on this schedule and show up at the wrong place at the wrong time.)
