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

FIRST of all....you are NOT fat. Secondly, you weren't gone for a month...which is how long it would take for any significant weight gain to show.
I had an old lady boss like that one time. Finally, after she retired, she and Jay ended up having lunch in the same establishment and Jay got to give her an earful. She had actually asked him for his opinion on a few of the "issues" he addressed....he wouldn't have said anything if she hadn't brought it up.
My only regret is that I wasn't there. SNAP.

I have dreams of being able to get back at old bosses - I figure someday, somewhere they will get their's, even if I'm not there to see it.

 

[Enna]

When I think about it, why would she feel compelled to say that to me. Does anyone ever need to point out that we put on a few pounds? NO, Never...we already know it (hence me joining online WW last night)

I did manage my own dig in return though. I said "you know, since we're all so fat, maybe we can look into WW at Work" she hightailed it out of my cubicle after that. The nerve!

GREAT come-back, MR!

 

[Enna]

Lisa--

I just now read about William's hand injury. I hope he's feeling better SOON!

 

[yargrnhoj]

Oh yes! He knows that & has been told that he can't say anything about us buying him the game & not making him pay for it. Of course, I am ready to tell her that if she wants to have a stick go into her hand, spend hours waiting to be seen, then have a needle jammed in & out of her hand several times followed by having a small knife used to cut open her hand to remove the stick and other splinters, then have other instruments poked around in the hole in her hand....she could get a game too.

Wasn't she the one who got her finger caught in the car door last week? Sounds like you should have married a hand doctor.

 

[yargrnhoj]

Boy oh Boy did I read that sentence WRONG!!

No, your word would have been right too....

 

[yargrnhoj]

Since I was back on Death Row today, otherwise known as Old Coot's Lane, I could have used alot of Devil's Juice today!!!


GET THIS

The 81 year old female boss said to me today "I guess you enjoyed your vacation because you got really fat again" Devil's Juice TAKE ME AWAY!!

Paraphrase Churchill. "Yes, but I can go on a diet. You, on the other hand, will always be a shriveled old prune."

 

[Diznyfan68]

Night All - hasta manana!

 

[lbgraves]

thanks! we got all dressed up and ready to go to church for the early service...only to realize we were still too late!! ugh!! i was still glad the kids didn't mind staying dressed up!
i guess we're off to have easter dinner at my inlaws now. talk with you all later!

They always mess with the Mass schedule on holidays...makes a lot of people late. Ours is usally 8 & 11 with CCD inbetween. This week it was 8, 10, & 12. I was out in the atrium with DS so that he could lay down on one of the couches & get some air mid way thru. There were many families who walked in like they were there to get a good seat early & were surprised that Mass was already half way thru.

 

[lbgraves]

Well DW is NOT HAPPY!!!!

First it was the 72-degree, shirt sleeves Christmas in Southern California....

And now, today we have a white Easter!!! 27 degrees, totally overcast and they say we're going to be up to 75 degrees tomorrow.

We live on the edge of the Black Forest and we woke up today to this....









Pansies DW planted last week...

The Pansies should be fine. We don't plant them until it cools down in the fall around here. The heat kills them...which is why we didn't get any planted this year.

 

[lbgraves]

ROFL! I am watching the bachelor again tonight due to nothing else being on and am ROFLMAO at the tall brunette. She has the right eyebrow twitch going on that is out of control at the rose cerimony.

OMG!!!! Just had to add that if you aren't on the EC and will be watching this....you have to watch the clip after the show is over with.

 

[lbgraves]

MR - as the drink was being dumped in her lap you could've said " THE DEVIL MADE ME DO IT!!

Paraphrase Churchill. "Yes, but I can go on a diet. You, on the other hand, will always be a shriveled old prune."

Oh J. R. if I only had the nerve......I'd love to say something like that!



Good Night Friends!!!

 

[allshookup]

I ordered a drink at WDW once, just to get those ice cubes.
Saw them on TV a while back, and I said to Jay "I don't know why, but I really like those little things"....and he just said "Yeah, I know you do" and rolled his eyes.
I guess he thinks I'm silly.

I've ordered a drink with them too. I love having my glass all lit up with a pretty color!

Okie Dokey, so the rest of the Devil Juice story is this. It was a 9 pm Chef Mickey Reservation which has to be close to the last ressie and we were seated next to this other family that was seated just ahead of us. During the dinner we (and they) were visited by Chef Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy and Pluto. In fact Mickey and Donald swung by twice. We caught two singing/napkin swinging Celebrate Mickey Mouse songs. We (and they) had the complete Chef Mickey experience. Although maybe mine experience was enhanced by the Devil's Juice, but I digress. At the end of the meal Ms. Devil's Juice called our mutual waiter over and asks to see the Character Coordinator". The waiter returns momentarily with the Character Coordinator. Ms. D'sJ then says "I am dead serious, I need the first and last name of Mickey Mouse" I almost shot my Blue Tini across the table in a spit take! She goes on to say that she didn't get enough interaction with Mickey. Specifically she said "I go to Seaworld to see Shamu, and I come to Chef Mickey's to see Mickey Mouse" The Character Coordinator asked if Ms. D'sJ was happy with the other characters. Ms. D'sJ said "I don't care about these other chumps, I'm here to see Mickey Mouse" Again Blue Tini shot through my nose! The CC offered individual time right away with MM, but Ms. D'sJ said no. That was basically the end of it so I don't really know what the woman wanted.

You know when you enter Chef Mickey's and they take your picture. Well when they delivered the pic to Ms. D'sJ she asked them if they could remove Minnie Mouse from the Pic! She really just wanted Mickey I guess!

Welcome to the Happiest Place on Earth!!

She belongs at Six Flaggs with all the Warner Bros. characters because she's looney tunes!!!

I bet it really threw him when he saw Santa Claus!

They like the effects it has on maintaining their webbing free from molds. They also enjoy the bleached feathers ontheir butts without having to go to the beautician. It generally saves them alot of money.

My worst experience at WDW deals with a mother duck with her little ones. At CBR on the lake a mother with her babies were swimming when a pelican swooped in and ate a couple of them!

Saw the recipe for the "Devil's Juice" non-alcoholic drink. No thanks....tomato juice, cranberry juice and Tobasco Sauce in the same glass?!?!?!?! NO THANK YOU!!!!

I nominate the Midori Margarita as our officia drink!
It's green (DISgreen with enough Midori

) AND it requires a blender so a few blender toating folks will be happy!

MIDORI MARGARITA

ingredients:
• 1 oz. Midori
• 1 oz. sweet-and-sour mix
• 1 oz. tequila
Cantaloupe ball
Watermelon ball

Mixing instructions:
Mix all ingredients (except melon balls) with ice in a shaker or blender. Pour into a chilled cocktail glass. The rim of the glass should be moistened with lemon juice and rolled in salt. Garnish with melon balls.

hmmmmmm I think I may have to perfect the recipe and try it out a few (dozen) times!

Oh no. I could not do it! I got sick drinking Melon Balls (Midori & OJ) when I was in my late teens & I can not stand the smell of Midori to this day!

I have 2 days of ketchup...but here's where I've been:
My house is almost clean and organized without piles of random stuff in every corner for the first time since before we left for vacation 3 weeks ago. Laundry is done. The parent team wooped the Mite C's in the hockey game/party (I was the only Mom who played...). The team signed and gave DS the banner than hung in the rink all this year as his going away gift. Eggs were dyed. Easter bunny visited. Easter feast was prepared and eaten. We didn't get around to the mud on our deck yet because something else distracted us...

Awww what a cutie! Congrats!

OH MY GOODNESS!!! What a night. I didn't get to bed until 1:30...and it wasn't because I was DISing. I was at the ER with DS from 6:50 until 1:10 am. We went to a birthday party yesterday afternoon & the kids were outside playing on the trampoline. He is use to them & knows the rules. Well, he was getting down because I told them we were going home and his foot slipped on the stepstool making him fall headfirst to the ground. He of course put his hands out to protect himself and his right hand took the impact. He came in crying and the palm of his hand was bleeding from what looked like a puncture. The kids showed the dad where he had fallen and he found a pine tree twig that probably caused it...since he also had a couple of splinters in the palm of his hand as well. I rushed home to drop off DD and have the nurse next door look at it to see if a trip to urgent care was justified or overreacting on my part. She said that it looked like it was starting to swell from something being inside the skin so off we went...only to find it closed early for Easter. A quick call to the ped on call had us going to the ER to get it checked out...where we waited a very long time. It was an hour inbetween everything...having his name called for triage & registration, 80 minutes before being called back to sit on a bed in the hallway to wait another 70 minutes to have the doctor check him out, then an xray, then meds, then move to a room. It was after midnight before the doctor came in to treat it. It took longer for the meds to numb his hand...the poor kid had the needle poked in his hand many times to get that done. Good thing though because they had to hold him down just because he saw what the doctor was going to use to cut his hand open to get the stick out. I worked on keeping his eyes covered the rest of the time and he was in good spirits soon after that was done. The doctor was really good with him so that helped a lot. We hadn't had dinner so I told him that he could have anything he wanted when we left. After picking up a milkshake at McD's we finally got home.

DD just went to school...not at all happy about the fact that her brother is still in bed sleeping. I am going to try to go back to sleep too before he wakes up & needs more painkillers. He has a splint since they have to treat it as a sprain due to where it happened. He is concerned about not being able to write or play his gameboy. I'll check in some time today.

Oh Lisa so sorry! Nothing worse than being in the ER for hours with a hurt child.

FEDEX just came to my door and dropped my package for DVC Animal Kingdom Villas. I am going to take the plunge!!!

You know, I did Jello shooters for the first (and last) time a couple of years ago in Vegas. I thought they tasted nasty. And then I was almost kidnapped by three guys from Ireland.........

Um sounds like a good story. Do we have to wait till the deck 7 Blender parties to hear it?

Drinking improves brain capacity.

A herd of buffalo can move only as fast as the slowest buffalo. When the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular culling of the weakest members.

In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, we all know, kills brain cells, but naturally it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine.

I like your thinking J. R. !

Hello All,
Just checking in to say hello. I can't seem to get all this painting done. I hate painting. With all that is going on around here, the TOAL is going by fast for me.

Did I mention that I hate painting? That's all I have been doing and packing.
I am driving with Chuck this Friday ( 13th ) to Chicago unload a truck then fly home on Sunday.

Still have painting to do............when will it end? I am sore and tired and YES need to mention how I hate to paint.

Hi Tina! Nice to see you pop in!

KEWL!

Should you be committed? Only if 200+ of your closest friends on the TOAL are joining you in that padded room.

My thoughts exactly!

 

[lbgraves]

I wonder if SeaWorld brought Shamu out to personally greet her?

Sounds like someone who should have some 1-on-1 time in a tank alone with a killer whale.

Maybe this could be for her

or maybe she is so special that this one is better for her.

 

[lbgraves]

Here are a couple that I found at the same site for our group.

 

[Verandah Man]

Hi All,

Just had to sign back in real quick. Just arrived home a few minutes ago from picking Angelina up from work. She got out a little late, but was carrying a B-a-B box with her. Little did I know, she had made me an "early" birthday present at work tonight, I have attached a photo below. You should have seen me grinning from ear to ear when I opened the box.

 

[lbgraves]

VM: "If you don't behave I'll turn this car around!"

ST: "Sure dad! Let's head back to WDW!!!"

VM:

 

[allshookup]

Oh Lisa, your poor baby boy!!! I hope he's better really soon!!

My DS also had a trampoline incident involving a backward somersault, his hand and a trip to the ER, so John and I feel yours and William's pain Pal!

My DS had a trampoline incident a couple of years ago too. He threw a rock of the neighbor's trampoline 2 days before Christmas & as he puts it, "I forgot to let go of the rock"! He ended up breaking his elbow & he had to wear a splint through Christmas until the Ortho opened up Monday morning & he could get a cast.

Since I was back on Death Row today, otherwise known as Old Coot's Lane, I could have used alot of Devil's Juice today!!!

GET THIS

The 81 year old female boss said to me today "I guess you enjoyed your vacation because you got really fat again" Devil's Juice TAKE ME AWAY!!

What the???? OMG MR you have nasty people coming at you left & right this week!

When I think about it, why would she feel compelled to say that to me. Does anyone ever need to point out that we put on a few pounds? NO, Never...we already know it (hence me joining online WW last night)

Pefect comeback! My lovely DSIL said to me the other day..."Gee Diane I thought you were losing weight? You were doing so good, what happened?" How was I suppose to respond? "Gee I didn't like the way I looked when I was a little thinner so I decided to gain it right back?"

Here are a couple that I found at the same site for our group.

Pefect!

 

[Esteri]

They're baaaack. And just as bad as ever...


I don't know if you guys have heard about this new Pirate corn they've got now.

I guess it's going to be like a buck an ear.
