DOes this stuff really work - super spandex - or is it just a gimmick. Cuz I suspect if it DOES work my spouse will be thinking of getting some fer ME fer V-Day.

Not the push up model, mind you...

Tom you will great in these at the PJ breakfast.

Evening,

I'm guessing everywhere will probably take US$ - they are easy for the locals to swap - just make sure its notes as they may not be able to change coins.

Happy to be corrected if I wrong, but I've found pretty much anywhere US$ are accepted if you don't have local currency.

All ports will take USA $.

Hi Everyone! Finally made it onto the board today - Wednesdays are just nuts! It tends to be busy at work and then I have to leave early to take DS8 to Fiddle lesson. THEN, to avoid having another evening booked, we go straight to a Karate lesson (they want him to do 2 lessons per week and this is pretty much the only way to do that and not have the poor kid out 4 nights per week ) We get home a little after 7pm so it is a very, very long day.

On the plus side, Thursday and Friday evenings are totally free this week so I actually get to stay home and relax!

DH just told me that he has to go out of town on a business trip on the 14th. When I said, "your kidding, they're sending you out for the 14th?" He was totally clueless and took several minutes to figure out what was 'special' about the 14th! I just better get flowers out of this one!

My DH had to go on a business trip a few years ago and they left on the morning of the 14th of Feb. I was so angry because the only reason he had to fly out on the 14th is because it was cheaper. His boss got to wait unitl the 15th of course. I did get some nice roses out of the deal and we celevbrated a day early

The 14th is just a date on the calendar on which everything costs 4 times as much as it should. Since your DH (as all the fine swabbies on this board do) shows you how special you are and how much he loves you throughout the year, his absense on this day should only be in person, not spirit, and with or without flowers, you will feel special.













(Did I mention that for the first time in seven years I don't have a conference in DC that week?)

Well if DH misbehaves, maybe she will come instead. JK. Have a safe trip. 7 hours. Wow and I thought the trip to Mom was bad.



The first year we were married, he flew down to the Bahamas for a Sales meeting and stayed at Paradise Island. What a disaster that was. He had to make up for it big time.

With all the Valentine's Day talk I thought I would post this funny joke again for any that might've missed it last year:

What Day is Today?

Over breakfast one morning, a woman said to her husband, "I'll bet you don't know what day this is."

"Of course I do," he answered as if he was offended, and left for the office.

At 10:00 a.m., the doorbell rang and when the woman opened the door, she was handed a box of a dozen long stemmed red roses. At 1:00 p.m., a foil-wrapped, two-pound box of her favorite chocolates was delivered. Later, a boutique delivered a beautiful designer dress.

The woman couldn't wait for her husband to come home.

"First the flowers, then the chocolates and then the dress!" she exclaimed.

"I've never had a more wonderful Groundhog Day in my life!

I wasn't on the phone or online, but my TA was and I remember being a nervous wreck!!!

I remember you taking your phone to the bathroom for days before booking, Stace!

Dr Rey and his powerful spandex Shapewear line ...

​

That stuff is great - she's actually 327 pounds.

I don't remember who was asking about pictures of our new puppy but here are a couple of photos of Raleigh.

Ohhhhhh, I just want to squish him!

In a good way.




Oh look, the nice folks from PETA are in my office lobby.​

Wow I could've flown $108 from RI to Ont (I think) with 1 stop, arriving at 9pm!

Oh well I paid double going out of BOS, non-stop, arriving at 10am with a TV. So I guess I have to convince myself that I'm paying for the convenience.

Roger: Raleigh is so cute!

Yep....those of us who used TA's were waiting for our confirmation calls. And I had a list of room choices and was actually sick to my stomach wanting to be sure I got something that worked for 5 women. Probably why I was in the bathroom so much. Oops, TMI!


And I wanted to say that I'd love to squish that dog (in a good way) too.....

Happy One Year Booking Anniversary!!!

That was one crazy day, but I loved the excitement! Probably because I also lucked out & got my reservation on-line within 10-15mins. with my favorite room. It was slooooow going & I thought it would crash but it went through.

At first I was upset that I hadn't booked a dummy reservation onboard the previous August, but in the end I was glad I could just make my own reservation. Going by what I found out later it looked like I might've broke even without the discount & onboard credit.

I was going to have DU booked my reservation for me, but I changed my mind because I knew I was not anywhere near the top of their list for bookings so I sent them an email to not book one that I would do it myself & transfer it later. I was so glad I did, because I not only saved myself some money, but I saved myself the stress of waiting for hours to get the final quote. I would definitely do it that way again if it ever gets that crazy again. I.e. maiden voyage on new ships?

[The FairyGodmother]

Ahem.......allow me to introduce myself.....my name is Laura and I'm a Lose-A-Phone Addict. And if I don't lose it - I'm a victim of theft so its not really my fault.........OK, I admit it - I need help!"

(DS wants to know why I pay for a phone that I am always losing or leaving behind and wants to know if he can donate to some homeless person. )




For some reason - this cracks me up!

Laura, We really are alike. I just had to replace my phone because it was lost/stolen. I lost it at church, but it showed up at the local hospital about 5 miles away. I hadn't been to the hospital in months. Mark thinks my phone had a cameo in Transformers and still had its ability to grow legs and travel.
Of course, my phone was found AFTER I had purchased a new one at full price since it was in the middle of my contract.

Sounds good to me Crash. I may have a snow day tomorrow, so I can get my stuff together.

A whole year! Seems like I've known ya'll forever!

Tina, It sure doesn't look like a snow storm does it? it is as clear as a spring day out there. I do hope we have a day off of school.

Oh my what a beauty!!!! I love the name too. Thanks for the pictures.

What a cutie!

 

[bellelinus]

I have to laugh at this...there was a thread on the main boards asking why we would take duct tape on a cruise and I had to SIT ON MY HANDS to keep from saying "It makes a good babysitter!"

I just knew people would not understand my sense of humor.

That's why we love you HERE, Stace -- I would have totally loved that answer!

 

[Downrivermama]

Hey Tina!... add 3 more postings to your tally and you'll have the same number of postings as Andy (Verandah man)... try and pull THAT stunt off on the original thread! And Shannon - you're gonna have ta do 5 to match Andy too!

Crash, are you encouraging me to shamefully post fluff in order to inflate my post count?

Well between the Dis Board and our Comcast hook up that maybe a little tough!

I did the same thing - called my TA the afternoon before & said I would do it myself. Can you say "control freak"??? I don't think I could have handled the wait!

TY TY TY TY

Now booked both ways!!!!!

Hmm, prices from DC STINK!
I'm still not booked either way.
