Hey All! Just wanted to let you know that I was MIA yesterday due to a last minute plan. My SIL had two extra tickets to catch the Ellen show at the WB Studios in Burbank. So we hauled off our carcasses to the show. It was very last minute and I didn't mention it because we ended up being sat at the top middle row section. I figured my chances of getting on TV were almost nil to none.

Well, I mentioned it to my DIS friend, DisneySweetie and she just called me that she saw me on TV. For a milo-second. But hey - I was there. She says that as Ellen comes dancing down the stairs I am off to the edge of the screen. I am saying this because as of now - it has not been shown on the West Coast. I am dressed in black of course, so I don't stand out. We were told to dress business casual and if jeans are worn to make sure they are not torn. I was standing next to a very tall gentleman who's wearing a white long sleeved pinstriped shirt. My daughter Megan is next to me in jeans - she was the smart one and wore comfortable clothes - and a beige cardigan over a purple polka-dotted shirt.

So, if any of you watch Ellen, make sure you tape it! LOL


BTW folks, that woman is SUPER TINY! I know that she looks normal size, but as she was dancing down the stairs I got a good look at her. I would be hard pressed to say that she is a size 6. We finally decided she is between a size 2 and maybe 4. She is very petite and although she was sporting a cold - she was blowing her nose and being checked for bats in the caves ( ) she was trying her best to be herself. She was a bit subdued but I can see where she is a very good entertainer. Here I was all pressed to be bored and even I had a good time.

Her guests were Kristin Chenoweth from Wicked and Pushing Daisies fame - the one with the high pitched voice? Some entertainer and how to dress up your table for the holidays and Robin Thicke who floored me with how much he looks like his dad - Alan Thicke. Nice looking guy! and

We made it out of there with Robin Thicke's new CD and a couple of samples of some cream for expectant mothers. I haven't opened the package yet as I am in the process of sending out some packages to my soldiers but I wanted to share. Hope you all can catch it. I also made it out with an Ellen jacket which I will post a picture of later. I am trying to get ready for a home volleyball game at St. Paul. So I will post later.


Sorry folks, just had to share!

Sorry to have missed you, that was on at 3:00 EST in our area.


We go up to NYC every so often to The View or The Martha Stewart Show. Still can't get tix for Rachael Ray or Regis & Kelly. I had gotten tix for Martha earlier this month but had to decline them since we were all busy for the taping day.

It wasn't much fun playing without you. Don't forget to pick a name, especially that you have a Major !

I had one on our Med thread but can't remember what it was!

 

[jlawall]

Sorry joann that must be "US speak"

No, it's "Starbucks Speak!" If you order a "mild" it's the milder version of the coffee they're serving that day. If you order "bold" coffee, it has more caffeine and a much stronger "kick. "

 

[jlawall]

Now I understand.
We went to Starbuck's in London and found it to be better than here. But then again, it should have been, since it was so expensive with the horrible exchange rate.

Yes, and they charge if you are drinking in the Starbucks a little more than if you take it "to go." Apparently, it's some kind of tax if you "eat in."

 

[jlawall]

So I've got 30 more posts and I'm up to 1000 !!! any bets on when I'll get there ???

Tomorrow? Are we looking for times as well............10am?

 

[jlawall]

Even then, to get to 1000 you need to do 130 posts not 30 posts.

OMG, I'm LMAO over here............

 

[jlawall]

No...no...no...you have this all wrong, we are going on vacation and the weather will be good. There will be no and we will have lots of .

Barb knows, she's been there before!

For the View, did you do regular tix or standby? I want to see that show really bad! I tape it everyday and Regis. I missed Ellen, today.

Hi everybody,

Rotations, work, and household chores have been keeping me busy. Now I think I'm getting a touch of Andrew's "man flu". I was blaming everything on allergies, but today I started with the overall tired and achy feeling. What a way to lead into my 2 long days. i'm sure I'll have a lot to ketchup on when I get back online.

Have a good couple of days!

PS... i got my 2 Scandinavian guide books that I ordered from Amazon.com/ too bad I won't have any time to sit down and read them. At least I have almost 2 years to get through them!

Good idea, I'll check that out! (the guide books, not the flu)
