8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC Part 6

[lbgraves]

Way behind again ... DW had a rough week, she's working on her PhD and with all these snow days, holidays, sick days, the kids haven't been to school a full week this year. In fact, I think they've only been to school 5 full days in the last 3 weeks and they have a holiday tomorrow. Anyway, she couldn't get enough study time and has been real upset about her last research paper that was due last Tuesday. She's afraid she may need to drop this semester if the grade comes back bad, which would mean she couldn't start her disertation in July, which means no chance at graduation next summer. Anyway, the cruise is to be hopefully a graduation celebration, but she says she wouldn't want to go if she doesn't graduate. So, I made a big dinner with Maryland Crab Cakes (her favorite), Stuffed Flounder, & Lobster Tail, then, to top it off, I pulled the DCL Chocolate Souflee (sp?) recipe offline and made her dessert. Here's hoping to a better week!

Your wife is a very lucky woman.

I'm w/Crash... need a Microwave, Fridge and a TV!

Be sure to post a picture when you get the remodeling done.

LOL I loved my double zipper pants!!!!!
I worked in the Pizzeria at Showplace until I was 18. Those zipper pants got me alot of tips from the dirty old men in the mens bowling league.

They were mesmerized by them.

AND YES they always STAYED zippered.

We wore those when I was high school,in the '70's.

You know I'm just a little sick of the insults around here. I wore flip flops to my wedding, I have a handlebar moustache, & now the fact that I wear PJ's 24/7??? Is there nothing I can do to please you people????

Sorry I couldn't resist!!!

But do you have beautiful feet?

 

[The FairyGodmother]

=BIP

They "say" your feet don't sweat in them and supposedly that's what the holes are for- to breathe. But I have to say that if you normally have feet proned to sweating- I do think you can sweat in these. Now that's not to say your feet won't "dry out" a lot quicker than they would in other shoes or socks/shoes combinations, because they will obviously with the holes and such. But the fact remains, your feet CAN sweat in these.

The only time my feet were sweaty in the normal crocs (not flipflops) is when we wore them to the ruins in Costa Maya and it was such a long tour and it was SO HOT and humid that day and there was no wind or anything. I only noticed it once though and pulled them off for a second sitting there and they (my feet and the shoes) were dry within seconds. My feet don't normally sweat, so I imagine feet that are prone to sweating WOULD sweat in these at times, given the right conditions.


Are they comfortable? Heck ya they are!

OMG!!! Costa Maya. Hot, doesn't begin to describe it. Try Costa Maya in July!!!!

You're kidding That's when "What Not To Wear" would be secretly filming!!

Family pic time...although I don't have a fancy Shutters photo....and it's a few years old....but one of my favorites, when my son still wanted to hug mom...

The orange shirts are another cult thing for a band we follow. Their fans wear orange shirts so the band can see us in during the show. Of course, most of the time we're all in the front row, so no missing us.

Oh, and it's hard to see us in this, but this was our 2004 trip to WDW at Christmas time. It was only about 45 degrees....I had no idea FL got so cold.

Here you go.

Your pictures are wonderful!

 

[allshookup]

Yet for what???

Oh I was just going for the 000 but I'm always too early or way too late!

 

[dahuffy]

Yes, that is confirmed at the 90 day mark with DCL...more than likely before that point. When you coordinate a large group for dining you have to assign which station each group will sit at. You don't know where they will be placed in the room BUT you group people by 18...an 8, 6, & 4 top per station...which can be pushed together once you board & meet your servers depending on where the tables are in relation to the room & walls & such. I grouped everyone by kid's ages last time, after taking care of the large family groups traveling with the DISers. We had table toppers as well to put on our tables with the group logo on it.

HOWEVER!!!!!! ALL I can do is email that list to the DCL coordinator who will note on the assignment DO NOT MOVE on our tables when she faxes it to the ship at 2 weeks. Not everyone was where they should have been on our last cruise the first night BUT some of this was due to people changing their rotation to have formal night in Lumiere's after they boarded or just switching out for whatever reason. This resulted in the stations no longer all being next to a DIS station when the entire station moved to a different rotation.

All I am going to ask this time is IF YOU DO NOT WANT THE TIME THAT WE WILL BE GETTING FOR LINKED DINING OR IF YOU REALLY DO NOT WANT TO SIT WITH THE GROUP.....do not send in your information when I request it. There were over 250 people last time between the two seatings and that included family groups traveling with DISers NOT in our group count. I expect that I could have up to 600 people to coordinate for dining this time. I hope that this doesn't come across too harshly but I would prefer not to waste time trying to accommodate everyone for dining if they do not intend to stick to it. This is not directed against anyone here...just what I have learned from experience with this.

Will you trying to do this for both Early and Late Dining? Quite an undertaking little girl! Kev and I will be there.

Lil Grumpy---yes my daughter can also be a pistol. She has 2 older brothers wrapped around her little finger. She truly is so funny and cute though....

We went through infertility for both of my sons.....We thought we were done and then as I always say......God gave me the best blessing of my life.....a blessing I totally did not know I wanted. I wanted to die when I was pregnant at 40. Much harder than in my 30s. Blake has been the most wonderful surprise however. Goes to show all that stress of infertility and then when you aren't even trying........mini wench


Me always perky????? obviously you skim..... Just kidding.

Love your tag too.

Well I don't skim, and I think you're awful perky. I like that in people... I like to surround myself with perky happy people because it makes me happy.I have a tendency to go towards grouchy mood or pessimism (sp?)/etc. Long story on why but I tend to be much happier surrounding myself with happy people. Maybe that's one of the many reason I like fellow Disney-lovers? Probably.

OMG!!! Costa Maya. Hot, doesn't begin to describe it. Try Costa Maya in July!!!!

Well in June it was HOT ENOUGH. Let me tell you. And I'm from Texas.. when I say it's hot, by gosh it's hot.
Oh and thanks for responding to my post. I was beginning to think I was invisible to all but Lisa since no one else has been responding to me today... unless I've just missed posts or haven't caught up to them yet!

[O'BWV]

Oh but that's all I got Pal




Well since my workaholic boss is making me come in tomorrow, even though it's DS's BDay then I'd better head off to bed.........


Good Night All!!

 

[dahuffy]
