8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC #11

[PBader]

It took me awhile to figure out how I would top the cards , and actually thought about doing that , but the cost for 125 decks was unreal ... So after some searching and actually finding someone to do these cause of possible copyright infringement i knew it was too cool not to do ...I know the kids are going ot like them , but I also think the Adults will like them more then the kids ....

Todd love the tats!
(I priced decks of cards and about fell off the chair)

Not cool to hate anyone for their size. No matter what size.

Sorry - should have had a 'pet peeve' alert.

Now M, you know I was just being silly. Hate is strong word, I should have said "Envious". Just like I'm envious of her gorgeous,long hair!

 

[dh chrisva]

OK I might be asking something dumb but what or where is a last call from Neiman Marcus....

Also what is ITA

It's the Neiman MArcus outlet store... there are 4 in FL...Miami, Orlando, Sunrise and NAples...if you google it you can find the website

 

[LITTLEKID58]

Txs so much.. did a search one on International drive.... way cool....

 

[Stepht5]

Sorry about being MIA today. I have a feeling it might look bad....but my head is all messed up today. There was a local fire and a woman who died in it, and sadly I am somewhat connected to it.

I wasn't trying to avoid you all....just messed up today.

How terrible!

aaaaannnnnndddddddddd, I'm back !!!!!!

Miss me ???

Of course!

oh, oh, oh, wait...

I got a formal at Last Call from Neiman Marcus. Original price $940.00. My price $40.00

Lookin' like a million bucks.... priceless

I have a couple of great dresses from Neiman's that you wil see me wear on this cruise! ANd mine were bought on clearance, also!

I think a lot depends on how it's said and how often. Remember the old commercials "Don't hate me because I'm beautiful...". Well, lots of women mean the phrase ("I hate you, you're so skinny") as a compliment and a way of saying how frustrated they are with their own battle with weight.
Of course, it sounds like your dd's experience with those women was not meant as a compliment, but more about resentment

It's not a compliment.
I try really hard to never talk about weight one way or the other. I grew up in home that weight / size were never mentioned. And I have one of the healthest veiws on food /weight of most of my friends. I have a few that if I let them would talk about weight/size all the time! LOL!

I want my girls to be happy no matter what their size is!

I know that Debi. That's why I posted the "pet peeve" alert. Everyone has a topic or two that they are sensitive about, and there is no way to post the sheer volume posted on this thread without hitting one of everyone's pet peeve issues at least once. What I love about this group is that we can usually have a rational adult conversation about the things that bug us, and at times agree to disagree.

whew, me too. But, then I thought I missed something.
Looks like they'll be keeping me in the shunned section after all.

Last Call from Neiman Marcus is where they send the unloved clothes from Neiman Marcus. Typically you see them at outlets.

ITA = I totally agree

(I tame alligators)
(I'm too angry)
(I took advil)
(I teach art) Chrissie

Ink took ages
Into tough ankles

The gown is a Carmen Marc Valvo. I was trying to find a picture to post. No luck.

Hmmm, I just check the name on my dress. Tag just said "Ned".

Does anyone else have a Ned original? I'd hate to wear them on the same night.

 

[allshookup]

I wish it were Friday night chat time! I'm bored out of my gord!!! The boys are watching wrestling & DD is on her new lap top! I don't know what to do with myself!

ITA...
unfortunately my pet peeve ran away from home... boy was I peeved

and, thanks for the welcome

 

[tiggrbaby]

That's exactly why I want it!! So when we aren't together, we can access the other cabin so we don't need to double up on all the supplies!

Actually, it was in the beach bag that DH and DD had. The problem was that they were not with me and I needed to get into the stateroom to start getting ready for dinner. Our host was not around and another CM escorted us to the front desk. They asked a few security questions and canceled the original card after issuing a new one.

man, you are in so much trouble with Ned. I'm sure his wife markes his clothes so no one takes them.

Hi Diane (imagine the waving smiley here. I'm too lazy to get it if it's not on the front page)

 

[bellelinus]

aaaaannnnnndddddddddd, I'm back !!!!!!

Miss me ???

I missed you, Lisa!!!!!!!!!!

 

[bellelinus]

Esteri, I just saw my email with the "click n ship notification" about the pirate zone stuff I ordered . . . .girl, you are PROFESSIONAL!

Thanks again to you and all your crew for getting this out to us.

ATTENTION ATTENTION




Okay , I know I should have waited , but I couldnt ..... The Fed Ex truck just came and brought our FE gifts for everyone and they are so flippin cool I am brakin my code of silence to share ....Just dont tell the kids .... well of course there is plenty for everyone .......:

These are way too cool, my kids will love them! Speaking of tattoos, DS was wondering today if there was a place to get a henna tattoo in Disneyland somewhere - maybe DTD?? Anybody know?

When our kids were younger (10 and less) they always wanted to go to the Blue Bayou because they love watching the boats in Pirates but they never liked any of the menu choices. It's better now, the teenagers like the Monte Cristo that they are famous for but DS11 still complains of no chicken nuggets or pizza to choose from. It is still their favorite place to go but $80 - $100 for a family of five is a once a year thing for us!

Michelle

That is why I am having a hard time justifying it too.......its so expensive and my kids will hate it. Plus DS will have to pay an adult price NOT to eat YIKES!

We just got back from a trip to DL a couple of weeks ago and stayed at the HoJo. We did take a break every afternoon to go back for a dip in the pool. It's such a quick walk back and forth that it was nice to be able to get back to the hotel and cool off for awhile (we were there during that awful heat wave). And the main pool renovations should be done when you're there, it looks like it should be great. We only had the garden pool, but it was still worth coming back in the afternoons.

I read somewhere that the pool was opened so we can't wait to see it. Loved the pictures that monica posted a few pages back.

I have a feeling it might look bad....but my head is all messed up today. There was a local fire and a woman who died in it, and sadly I am somewhat connected to it.

Got the confirmation that my credit card still works and the patches are being made as we speak..well..as we type....Should arrive in about 2-3 weeks..just in time!

Cool, can't wait to see them.
