2006 DVC Member Cruise - SSMC06 - October 22, 2006 Part 4

[Diana Lyn]

Me too. She'll be back one of these days. I upgraded my cell phone today and I'm trying to figure out how to get my old ringtone back. It was "Be Our Guest!"

That's a good GTKYFCC question---What's your ringtone?

Mine is Zip a Dee Do Da and my Voice Mail ring is Yo Ho Yo Ho a Pirate's life for me!

OMG - I'm so embarrased, but I have to say that I have NO idea how to get different ringtones, so I just have what my phone came with.

In my defense, I gave up cell service a few years ago, when I was laid off from my job, and was actually happy without a cell phone. But, Chris really wanted me to have one, since I'm always running around with the girls. So, I just recently got a pre-paid cell phone, just for the once in a while that I actually use it.

mine is Linus and Lucy song

 

[MaryJ]

Can we invite MaryJ too? Please???

I know she hasn't guessed a disaster of a cruise (yet) but.....



Last year, Mary & I were like school girls, giggling during the lifeboat drills. We had said on the SSMC05 thread that knowing the way things were going, we were going to end up sailing with Captain Henry.

For those of you who don't know, the vacuums on the ship are "Henry" vacuums. They are the cutest little things. My son Walker last year would drop down on the floor to check out the face on these. They look like this:

We had a huge discussion on the thread about vacuums and what type we owned. So, during the lifeboat drill, Mary & I are standing close to each other, in our cute & fashionable life jacket when they mention we are sailing with Captain Henry. Mary & I busted out laughing. People were staring at us -- I know my family thought I was absolutely off my rocker (be nice, Gary, I know your reading ).

It's a moment that I will treasure always.

Thanks Cindy!! And I know it's a stretch, but The Goonies (my only guess so far) ended up with the ghost ship sailing away into the sea with all those jewels on board....that sure sounds like a disasterous cruise to me!!

 

[MaryJ]

ACK Gary - not JAY's please no Jay's or Lay's or frito anything!

LOL sorry, my family has a small potato chip business in Iowa and that's all we eat. STERZING's are the BEST!

Gotta say I'm with you Gary. Jay's are all I buy here. However, if we lived 200 miles north in the Indianapolis area, I might be tempted by Seyfarth's (sp).

On my old phone it was Ode to Joy which is what I walked up the aisle at my wedding to. Just got a new phone and haven't done a custom ring tone yet.

 

[MaryJ]

How come VWL is all tiny and you can barely see it? Why do the others get such big pictures. It's not fair I tell you. I can see the injustice.

I thought the same thing!! BCV and SSR got too big IMHO. Course I guess we shouldn't complain. Maybe since VWL is small it will get overlooked and fewer people will want to stay there!

 

[bonzie1]

Oh Julie!

I love looking at all you've put together! Party planning for guests is such FUN (at times frustrating too, but none the less FUN!) From what you've shown us, your guests will have the time of their lives.

The flutes are WONDERFUL. I remember having them sent from the Wedding Pavillion to the GF for our 5th anniversary. DH was sooo surprised when they brought them out. I chuckled and said, "Don't worry sweetie... we'll be getting the bill!"

I can't wait to hear about your special day!

Looking forward to meeting you too!!!

 

[smjj]

I can't remember. How long will it be before we recieve out cruise dodcuments? It seemed like the last time it was about 3 weeks prior..smjj

Oh! I am so glad I am not the only one here without a cute ringtone! My phone is big, old (6-8 years) and out of date. My family complains because the battery has a habit of falling off when it is in my purse. I was holding out for a disney mobile phone, but the coverage in my area leaves a lot to be desired.

 

[MaryJ]

LOL I can see it now - On Deck 9 we have the chip eating contest between Gary from Illinois and Matt from Texas - who will win???

Even though he doesn't post here, DH Ken could be in this contest too! We've sworn off chips until the cruise (trying to lose a few pounds so we can eat what we want on the cruise) so by that time, he'll be ready to dig into a bag!

Hey sister--I have a pre-paid phone to! I'm not a big phone talker but I feel safer having a phone. I've been doing prepaid for 8 years now. I started with a Tracfone and bought the 1 year plan for $99 that gave me 300 minutes I never even came close to using them all, so after like 6 years I still ended up with a balance of a few hundred minutes left. I switched to T-mobile almost 2 years ago and I love it. It's $100 for 1000 minutes and 1 year of service. But what I like best is that they are anywhere minutes. On Tracfone roaming was 2 minutes for 1 minute. AND I can download fun ringtones and wallpapers on my tmobile phone. My wallpaper is cinderella castle

I think they tell us we'll have them before 2 weeks. Last year it was around 3 weeks that I got mine.

 

[RRBB]

Okay folks, we seem to have gotten away from important business here - Curt's guessing game. I'm going to say Chicken Little because the block uncovered this morning was so helpful.

 

[ohiominnie]

And is Thumper mooning us?

Julie--from what I understand, we're all supposed to get one. They come by priority mail so mine will of course reek of cigarette smoke and no doubt be delivered to house #20 on some other nearby road.

I was getting wrong mail all the time. Made me wonder where MY mail is. Finally, one day after getting the neighbors mail---all of it...junk, bills, credit card offers AND a letter from their son in Iraq---I called and complained. Told the USPS supervisor that if they wanted to start giving me $0.39 a letter to walk it to my neighbor's house, I'd be willing to do that, but until they start PAYING ME to deliver the mail, then I'm going to scrawl WRONG ADDRESS in big permanent marker on the outside of everything (as I had been doing) and would put it back in my box!!!!

They ended up sending me a sticker to put on my mailbox---red sticker that says "PLEASE DOUBLE CHECK ALL MAIL FOR ACCURACY."

Uh, shouldn't they be doing that ANYWAY??????????????? but since then I haven't gotten any wrong mail!!!

 

[Diana Lyn]

So I made the mistake of Googling TMX Elmo and watching the video of him in action. He's adorable. You guys should definitely check him out.

Of course, my laughing got the girls up from their beds to see what crazy mom was doing. Julia LOVES him and made me play the video about 3 times. The first word out of Emma's mouth was "I want him". Great. And I was so sure my kids wouldn't care. Those same kids who don't watch Sesame Street and who could care less about Shout Elmo we have in the basement. There go all my ebay profits down the drain.

Congrats to Mary (Iluvdisney) on post #17,000!

Congrats to Amy on reply #17,000!

Yea what she said!!!

Mine is Zip a Dee Do Da and my Voice Mail ring is Yo Ho Yo Ho a Pirate's life for me!

Mine WOULD be "Beautiful One" but I'm too cheap to spend the $1.99 to get it!!

(it's a contemporary Christian one we sing at church. I love the song. I also must admit I'm stalling b/c I'm afraid I'll just keep letting the phone ring and ring and won't answer the phone!!)
