Now that is my kind of cruise! I love that whole idea of The Champagne Girls!
We did have a lot of fun and vowed to remain Champagne Girls Forever! I still have my tiara.
So now we may become the M.T.P group?

I wish you were going with us to Disneyland as well! It is the last bangbefore going back to school--hint----hint...
Do any of you dress up for formal night, and if so, how much? Do you go all out with the fancy dress and tuxes or just a simple dress?
I found a dress that I LOVE and have almost convinced myself I'd love to wear on formal night, but I'm afraid I might be over-doing it a bit... What do you all think?
I am sure you will come up with a great cruise logo.
I just stopped by to stalk MellissaE 1...i know where you live hehehehehe
Looks like you guys will have a great trip. I just got back from the Magic and am ready to go again...after Christmas!! Melissa told me about National Talk like a Pirate day. Too funny!
I haven't shared that particular story on this thread yet, so thanks for the opening! (Pssst... guys who actually belong on my thread... you can accumulate stalkers even on someplace as benign as the DIS boards.) Let me tell you all a story...
OK, it was a pretend hatchet, but it was a riot. Actually, SHE is a riot, and we've had lunch together again since, with plans to again. (Just humoring her, she keeps a regular hatchet at home.) No, seriously, a great DIS board coincidence.
It really is a small world. Did you want to be the pirate with the hatchet, instead of the sword?
who is this person???? She acts like she knows me!
lol hehehe
You just never know when they are lurking around the corner.....
That is too funny!!!!Hey Pam -- LMBO, really and truly.
A DIS'er asked a question in a thread about resident rates. Since I happen to also be a resident, I replied, but since I wanted to direct her to another travel-related website, I PM'd. (Whispering to my peeps: Be careful who you PM!). Anyway, we PM'd back and forth, discussing that we both lived near each other on the Panhandle. Then I mentioned in an aside (can you believe I wandered off topic? Me either) that we moved here from California. Went something like this...
My PM: "When we moved here from CA..."
Her PM: "CA? Really? Grew up in West Covina, you know it?
My PM: "NO WAY! I grew up there! Ever hear of Woodside Village?
Her PM: "You're kidding! My best friend lived over there!"
Etc., etc. until we found out we not only live near each other now, we went to school together for four years in grade school and Junior High 2,000 miles from here. Had mutual friends, etc. We actually remembered each other.
Now in this series of PM's we decided to meet for lunch so I asked her to confirm that she was not some kind of dangerous psycho and she said she would leave her hatchet at home. I suggested she could put a lime green ribbon on it so we could recognize each other at lunch, lol. So I pull up to Panera, and the person parked next to me gets out of her car... with a HATCHET with a lime green bow on it!
Everyone together now... "It's a small world, after all..."
Now that is my kind of cruise! I love that whole idea of The Champagne Girls!

I actually both called and emailed the local college but neither one of those helped me. If I want to talk to someone with some kind of a plan I have to go down there. Ugh, 35 miles or so away. Haven't been motivated enough to make the trip yet. It's, uh, the holidays. Yeah, that's it. 
I've also been thinking of volunteering in the ESE classes in my DD's school to make sure I will like the job (I already know I love the kids, but want to make sure I could actually run a classroom for a living).Did you want to be the pirate with the hatchet, instead of the sword?
Do you all want to do "Mickey's Talking P.I.R.A.T.E.S."? Or we can use whatever else anyone likes!
I vote for this one, I think we should keep the acronym too. I puled it over from the other pageSo what does everyone think about finalizing the name? I am off the sinus meds today, so I'm not likely to come up with any more strange acronyms.
Get up and go the distance!! Come on, you can do it. I am sure that in between your house and the college is a store that you need to pick up some presents. So, you would be multi-tasking. Believe me, I know it is hard. I already went to my first class over the summer and ended up having to take the next 3 months off to rethink my game plan. Then I realized that I want to do this and I can make a difference in not only my own child's life, but, others. You can make a difference as well! 
Okay, getting off my soap box for right now..So what does everyone think about finalizing the name? I am off the sinus meds today, so I'm not likely to come up with any more strange acronyms.
My vote is for Mickey's Talking P.I.R.A.T.E.S.....I say we lock in this name.....what do you say PIRATES....do we lock in this name?
Drumroll please.....ta dum - ta dump a dump - ta da....I hereby declare us Mickey's Talking P.I.R.A.T.E.S. so long as there is no one that disagrees. Going once, going twice, done! Declared!
Now who is good at doing graphics.....my DH John said that he would have a go at it when we came up with a name. Now we have that so we'll see if he can come up with a graphic for us. Does anybody else know how to do graphics that wants to also give it a try???
Ok, here's a thought... I can't get the wording to look "right" when I tried to come up with a design, so if you want to use this pic, here ya go!
Then I realized that I want to do this and I can make a difference in not only my own child's life, but, others. You can make a difference as well!
Going to make the drive next week after T'giving. Guess I'll never get anywhere thinking about it. LOL. I guess we're officially Mickey's Talking P.I.R.A.T.E.S.
