I'm totally into this now , since DH is going to dress for it now . I can at least have this for the next 20 Halloween's .

Julie, if that was to me - I did warn everyone that I was talking to your hubby! I think I have changed the subject several times in one page.

Suzie - not treatable. It sucks! His fever is super high, he is having some issues this morning that I will change the subject for and it's supposed to last 6 days.

 

[castlegazer]

The second one. More authentic in my mind - whatever that means. I would wear it too.

 

[ohsodisney]

Thanks for that link , now I am super excited

The second one of coarse is the most expensive , good taste CG .

 

[Belle&RellasMom]

[ohsodisney]

Well , I ordered it , I am a compulsive shopper , I do need to go to a Shoppers Anonymous meeting , wish there was such a thing .

My order is right CG , let me know how to pay you for it .

 

[castlegazer]

I can't believe you could read that - it got completely scrwed up when I posted it from excel.

It's still screwey - let me know if anyone needs clarification as its a mess.

ohsodisney - you go girl! I really did like that one. I will definately not be buying a costume. I have enough crap to pack.

 

[OHJulie]

CG - So sorry to hear about your DS. Be careful, that rotovirus is NASTY! My DS had it when he was 3 and he ended up in the hospital - don't want to scare you, just make sure that he stays hydrated.
Kyle just couldn't shake it. It would seem to go away and then it would come back. He kept losing fluids one way or another - if you now what I mean.

Thanks for ordering the bands!

I am undecided on the pirate costumes. We are really trying to pack light this time! We did order some really cute Pirates of the Carribean pins from the disney store on-line. That may have to be the extent of our costumes.

Walmart - HMMM - not going to go there! Get a couple of drinks into me on the cruise, then let's talk!

Is this weather driving anyone else crazy? 60 today 30 tomorrow! Rain and dreary.

New survey - show of hands. How many people think that Tom and Julie should take us all with them to Vero Beach next month? Think we can all fit in your room?

OHJulie

 

[ohsodisney]

Hi Julie , we are in the same weather pattern as you . but only 50 today and 14 tomorrow .

Please tell me there will be people in costumes on the ship , my DH will fall over if there isn't .I have to say thou I did remind him of the day that we went to the front of the ship wrapped in just sheets , so I told him it can't be any worse then that !!!! It was 5:00 am and I didn't think there would be anyone out there yet , well I was so wrong , people were laughing their a``'s off thou. No , it wasn't Toga day on the cruise either .

Hello All,

I'm just checking in quickly, it's a crazy day again. We leave this afternoon for the city, about a 4 hour drive. When we lived up north, it used to be 10 - 12 hour drive. Don't miss that! We will be staying with my sister-in-law. Her sons used to have pet rats & the cage was in the living room. While we were sleeping on the pull-out couch, the rats would be active and making all kinds of creepy noises. You can't complain when someone is letting you stay at their house, but I must say that I'm glad they are gone.

Costumes - We would love to dress up, but I'm just not sure it's worth hauling everything down there. It would be just my luck that my suitcase would be picked for customs check leaving Canada! What about costumes for 80's night? Isn't that something that people dress up for too? Or the 70's thing? We would need a whole seperate suitcase just for costumes. My husband is really a great sport when it comes to dressing up. Even back in high school when you would think he would be too cool, he would let me dress him up for compititions at school. When I was pregnant with our first, we went as a harem dancer & the sheik. With my HUGE belly, I was the short fat sheik, and he was the dancer! He even put a large jewel in his belly button. You could see his beard through his veil and it was great. That's a picture I should find for you all. Of course, I'd probably be going on the cruise by myself after that.

I made the mistake of laughing at the weather up north where I used to live. Now we have -37 C today with the windchill. Tomorrow our high is suppose to be -46 C with the windchill. That's like -53 F. What's up with that?!

 

[inthemood]

Mardi Gras beads.....
Togas....
and Wench outfits

Are we sure this is a family cruise?

 

[OHJulie]

BLBCB - Thanks, you just made me feel so much better about our weather!

OHSO - there will be people in costumes on the ship. I just swore that after our last trip I would bring less stuff. We didn't use half of the clothes that we brought. On the return trip one of our suitcases were over the weight limit so we had to stand there in the middle of the terminal and move stuff around. The only one that uses all of her clother is our daughter - she goes through two or three outfits a day - luckily her clothes don't take up a lot of space. Of course, our DS (13) would wear the same clothes all week if we didn't make him change. GROSS!

reminds me of a Sesame Street episode where they talk to eskimos and they teach their words for things - (I don't know if this is Inuit or what language specifically)
I am cold.........................................Oo-[size=+1]voong[/size]-ah [size=+1]ick[/size]-key

kaniktshaq moritlkatsio atsuniartoq = "Observe the snow. It fornicates." (nah, this wasn't from the episode - just found this and thought it was hillarious!)

I think the word for winter is Ick-key ook - I always think of that when I hear how dang cold it is up in the great white north!

HOW DO YOU DO IT????

 

[ohsodisney]

BLBCB , come on dress up for pirate night , it sounds like a blast ,when else could you get away with looking like a wench ?
OhJulie , I really wasn't going to pack a formal dress or was I planning on packing costumes , what the heck , I am going to pack a large canvas tote in our suitcase so if we are overweight going home we can just chuck everything in that . Come on come on dress up !!!!
We never wear everything we pack , in fact I decided to do a load of laundry at AKL Friday so we rewear some of the outfits . Disney makes it so easy to , you really don't have to haul your luggage around to much , they do it for you .

Can you tell I am hoping more of you dress up for Pirates night. o.k ,I'm begging . Please , please , please . this guy will have to do since there is no icon for begging .

 

[castlegazer]

Here ya go:

I just finished that video - awesome stuff!

 

[BLBCB]

OhJulie,

I'm glad my misery is making you feel better!

Castlegazer,

I know the American Sesame Street is different than the Canadian one, but I was really wondering what episode would have them talking about fornicating snowflakes! As for how we do it, we don't know any better! By the time July comes and we hit the +30s, winter is forgotten. I just wish summer was as long as winter. Makes you appreciate the summer that's for sure. Having nice weather all the time must get boring.

Ohsodisney,

I'll see what my husband thinks of the idea. A lot will depend on space in the suitcase. Wish I would have been thinking about it when all the Halloween stuff was out. Are there any more who will be dressing up? What about for the 80's & 70's nights at the bar? Do people dress up for them too?

Here I thought my comment about listening to the rats all night at the end of my bed would be what people would pick up on, and nobody did. You never know what catches people's eyes.

I don't know if it is possible to go back and change a post, so I'll just apologise now. I just read over my last post and the comment to Castlegazer sounds pretty bad. I mention fornicating and follow it up with how we do it!! I didn't notice that until it was too late. I was actually answering her question about how we handle the snow I think it's time I went back to work.

 

[ohsodisney]
