5/27/06 "Il pochi il fiero i blabbermouths" We *will* sail again Part 9

[goingthedistance]

We had so much fun on the beer tasting - that we cancelled martini and booked Advanced Beer Tasting......

Sadly, no Smitwicks on cruise....had to make do with Guiness.....

MMM...advanced Beer Tasting...now that sounds like a class I would be willing to take (again and again and again)

We've got one of those too!!!!!! Although I call him a groundhog....is that the same thing??? This creature is HUMONGEOUS. If I was my dad, I'd go out and shoot him, but the only gun I have is a water gun and I don't think that's going to cut it.

We have ground squirrels, mostly outside the dog fence perimeter. I told DS that he could shoot those, along with sparrows and starlings, with his BB gun. He tried all last summer and hasn't gotten anything yet. I think that they're all safe to tunnel around the edge of our yard and build nests in obscure places and steal the chicken food from the chicken coop. (Need Chip and Dale smilies here).

And a UTOP doing Virgil's thing!

Oh, Ang, now we DEFINITELY have to meet! Erin's done that before too. And I agree, cute but EEW!

Hmm. maybe I should keep my dear, sweet, innocent Andrew3.5 away from your two "fast" girls!

 

[justmestace]

better watch it. they'll do whatever they can do to get to the front of their line. even taking over all carryons so the kids can sprint into the terminal.

although with the lack of "line" now, maybe we should send in recon ppl to reserve an area with couches!!

The "couch" area is no longer for concierge guests only. DCL has made a queue for concierge, to the left of the big Mickey entrance. Nowhere near as "deluxe" as the couch area.

 

[justmestace]

Why not?

True...we could keep it going.....

 

[whnim64]

Good morning all.

I had to call linksys today for that trouble with my wi-fi and guess where the guy was that helped me? India. Unbelievable. Guess it's cheaper to job-it out than it is to keep it here in the USA? Go figure. Well, he finally fixed me and I'm back surfin'. Ain't life sweet?

Which is one of the reasons that I got laid off a few years back. I used to write computer programs that are written in India, now.

 

[justmestace]

Okay...here I go. See how fast I'm moving? Can you tell I'm excited to be up and out so early?

I wouldn't even schedule SURGERY this early.


I'm doing this for Jay. Definitely not for the creepy brother who was probably dropped on their doorstep by aliens in the first place.

And that's the nicest thing I can think of to say about him.

Yes...I'm going....


Bye.......

 

[whnim64]

I was just mentioning at work yesterday how I wasn't going to have a life any longer after the cruise; nothing to look forward to as this is our last planned vacation forever (well it will seem like forever before we will go somewhere again).

Hey! My brother resembles that remark...
Or as I like to say, he was born breech and has been showing his true side ever since...

Time for me to get something done around the house. I told DH that I wanted to come home from the cruise to a clean house. If that's going to happen I need to start now (yes, it's that bad). HVAC guy was supposed to come at 8:30 this morning, but called and said it was too cold to check the air (44 degrees this morning) so he's coming at 1 this afternoon. Gives me plenty of time if I ... just...pull...myself...away.......

Hey Pam,

How's it going with the bags? Did y'all make any decisions on the logo? Sorry if I missed a post somewhere.

Ang

All printing on bags and shirts were to start a couple of days ago. She still wants to get them shipped by Monday or Tuesday. The logo is going to be a solid white puff print. There was going to be a problem with the silkscreening, too much to go into detail, but anyway, the puff looks really cool. It is raised. Hope everyone likes them, if not -- I will change my name

 

[BWVPam]

Well, I am home again this morning. Long night last night. Dale and Charley did not get home from the Orchestra competition until 11:30 last night. Thank goodness they had no early practice this morning and he even excused them from 1st period band. So Dale got to sleep until almost 7 and then got up and got all of his homework done. He is going to leave for school in about 30 minutes. He is getting tons of homework in the AP World History class right now because he is having to go take the AP Exam next week. His teacher thinks he will probably have one of the highest marks. I will ge glad, he will get his first college credits.

 

[BWVPam]

I got my first pair of CROCS yesterday (ordered from REI). I got the light blue nile ones. I am wearing them now to see how they do on my feet. I can't see spending all day in them at WDW though. I have a weak ankle and I am afraid that there is not enough support. Now I am waiting on the SAFE SEA to arrive.


Have fun today everyone.

 

[sjtracey]

That deserves a little celebrating!!!

YEAH!!!!!

Just remember to change your name BEFORE Mark's button deadline...

The "couch" area is no longer for concierge guests only. DCL has made a queue for concierge, to the left of the big Mickey entrance. Nowhere near as "deluxe" as the couch area.

I'm talking about the couches all along the right hand wall, opposite side of the terminal from the check in desk. Although we got their *fairly* early for our January cruise and they were all full. We all sat on the floor. I put that in my survey at the end of the cruise that if they were going to continue with that boarding system, they needed to have more places to sit.

Btw, here's an idea.....the first DIS'er through security needs to ask for enough numbered cards to get EVERYONE in. When we got there in January they asked "how many staterooms" so we said "2." One for us, one for my parents who were about 30 minutes out. That way we could board together.

So when they ask "how many staterooms?" say "83"

Stacey - since you get to board first - can you request these....Thanks...

But then we will not know who to thank when they turn out GREAT!!!!

 

[gptmba]

Wow! I just finished reading all the pages. I think I had about 20! I hope that everyone is doing better/well, whichever the case may be. I am at school, but most of my students are doing the state tests, so the few remaining with me are watching a movie. They will be with me for 2.5 hours. Luckily, the ones that are here are the GREAT ones!

I have been to the Caribbean resort areas at least 10 times and have never heard of nor had problems with sea lice. Now, I am worried!

 

[sjtracey]

I always take 3, but end up only wearing 2 of them. They dry in a day, so one day with one of the suits on, and the other is dry the next day.......
DD, on the other hand, takes about 5 of them, and somehow manages to wear them all!

Sounds exactly like us. Heaven forbid Erin has to wear the same suit too often!
