yeah jen i flipped when i saw jake too he worked his butt off to keep that role and the effects of him changing into a wolf look good i am glad they didnt make him abnormally huge as a wolf they made him look like he could be an actual wolf. I cant wait til november the number of people who are going with us to see the midnight showing is slowly growing right now we have 6 or 7.
I looked at the hours it doesnt look like any of my ADRs will change so that is nice. Now i have to work on getting some clothes to wear while we are there alot of my capris have paint on them bc i have been wearing them while painting at the house. But it works out really well since alot of our summer clothes here are going on sale bc they are getting the winter things in so all of their summer stuff is going on sale.

Hi All!
I am working on my FE gifts and have a special request...Would everyone participating send me or post the first initial of your last name? If there is more than one last name in your stateroom, let me know that, too. Sooo, if your last name is Snarklefloopus and you're not comfortable sharing that, just let me know it starts with "S", please? Thank you, Cruisies!

 

[m_kasch]

OMG -- how did you know my last name?!?! It's Snarklefloopus!! LOL!! My last name isn't hard from my dis name -- it's Kasch. Pronounced like Cash.

I'm excited to see the new twilight movie too! I haven't read the 3rd book yet...i'm too cheap, so i'm waiting for it to come out in paperback this summer. I'll probably just buy the 4th one in hardback because I don't want to wait that long. I was going to check it out from the library, but there was a crazy long wait.

I turned in my travel requst form today for the conference, so, barring any unforseen craziness, I am all set for my conference. I had to wait to make sure that there were enough Unclaimed Property sessions before requesting it, even though I knew there would be.

I'm excited that I have NO WORK tomorrow!! YAY!! It was a total pain today, more arguments with accounting. They are such a pain!! And I am totally allowed to say that, because that is where I started with Walgreens, then I saw the light and moved to the Tax department, LOL!! Have a happy Friday, everyone!!

 

[DuchessAndKittens]

LOL! I guessed that was your last name, but didn't want to assume. Thank you!

mary my family members are rereading the books they listened to them on the way to PA for their vacation i remember them all pretty good which is odd considering my memory is very bad. It amazed me that my aunt likes it even more than anyone else in my family and now my little niece is reading twilight her mom told her that if she has read new moon by the time it comes out she can go with us to see it at midnight i dont know if she is more excited about seeing the movie or about missing a day of school.
My last name will be McFall when we are on the cruise i am moving up in the alphabet from a N to an M.

 

[karentan]

hi amy!
my surname is tan-pearson, and garys is just pearson.

i can help with some of the rest of them:
jenny's surname is nieczypor, not sure on joe's surname.
stacy's (futuredis) family name is Crotser
Donna's (lilo's mum) family name is Decker

amy, while you're around, what are the names of the people sailing with you? i'm toying with the idea of individual gifts and i'd need first names.

also i cant remember who's cruised with disney before or not?

 

[DuchessAndKittens]

Thanks Lainey! You seem like such a calm bride! With only three months to go, are you running around like crazy behind the scenes or are you always just a calm person? Amy

 

[DuchessAndKittens]

Well since my own family is tired of hearing about the cruise, I thought I would share some of my excitement with you fellow cruisies!

I ordered a cocktail dress for Palo dinner and it got here this week and I love it. I am on a diet and hope that by the time of the cruise, it will be too big, but I can take it in if needed!

Also, I got my confirmation of final payment in the mail yesterday and to celebrate paying the cruise off, took the boys to the outlet mall and Old Navy to get new swimsuits and rashguards. My little one wanted to get a set of trunks and shirt to match his cousin's, so I ended up buying sets for Nicolas and my nephew. Then I thought my niece might get jealous so I bought her a new swimsuit and rashguard. My 11 yr old picked out swimming trunks and was happy, but my 13 year old decided he is too cool for Old Navy and he made me mad, so he is suitless for now. lol Does anyone want a snotty 13 year old? I will ship him for free!

Oh, I also got myself some tops and a new tankini, so I think it was a productive day!

 

[jenny105]

I have to go check out the park hours. I'm going to spend part of my day at work planning. It's been quiet this week, probably because no one wants to come out in this crap weather. It's supposed to rain all day today.

I want today to pass by quickly because tomorrow I'm going to see the NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK! And then I'm going to see them again next weekend.

Amy, Joe's last name is Minnella. And yay for Disney shopping trips! No one is too cool for Old Navy! Can I put Old Navy stuff in his FE?

 

[m_kasch]

Jen, yay for NKOTB!! I'm seeing them on the 26th -- I can't wait!!

I bought a really cute dress to wear to Palo last night. I also am trying to be on a diet (easier said than done) so hopefully it will be all good by the cruise. Well, not all good...but better, at least!!

I agree that you cannot be too cool for old navy, their stuff is super fun!

 

[disney honeymooners]

Amy i am not always calm but i am so busy with our house that i havent had time to LOSE it yet but as the day gets closer i am sure i will lose it.
i have never been to see NKOTB i never really listened to their music which i odd bc i am only a couple years younger than yall so i should have been in to them i on the other hand was an NSYNC girl that was the first concert i ever saw and one of the few that i have actually seen. thats sad im 24 and i have only seen about 3 concerts i need to get out more.
karen i am one of the people going who have done the cruise before but it was in 2004 so it has been 5 years. Well i will talk to yall tonight i have to go to work now i hope all of yall have a great day

 

[jenny105]

Mary, I cheated and looked at the set list. It's going to be so much fun. I really can't wait. I want today to be over with already.

Lainey, I was an NSYNC fan too. I went to see them during one of their tours, I forget the name of it. It was when 'Pop' was the big single. It'd be great if they ever did a reunion but JT is way too big so I doubt it will ever happen. Now I have Space Cowboy in my head.

Karen, I've never been on a Disney cruise! This is my first!!!

I'm like super excited today because of the concert.

Oh, I meant to say in my previous post since you were all talking about Twilight, I just picked up Breaking Dawn on Wed night. I'm about 100 pages into it so far. I can't wait to read Jacob's part. He's my favorite!

 

[karentan]

yay, its the weekend!!!!!!!!!! todays been a crappy day at work, just really petty stuff going on, lots of stupid little comments made that i'm trying to stay out of. but i've got 2 days off so thats cool with me!!

jenny, yay for the NKOTB concert, i know you've really been looking forward to it! hope you enjoy it!

 

[jenny105]

Thanks!! I have one tomorrow and next Sat w/my cousin. I'm going to be sad when that one is over because that's it for them touring around here until who knows when?

Sorry you had a bad day at work. Boo to annoying/petty co-workers!

 

[karentan]

it wasn't the co-workers as much as the managers!
i mean me and chris got told off for cleaning our desks at 4.45, because we werent working. what the hell?
but glad its the weekend now, 2 days off, no money to do anything with but oh well
i'm going to watch the end of friends, then do my ironing while watching dexter. i really do need more money as we've never got anything exciting to do!

 

[jenny105]

Our managers don't communicate with anybody. I sometimes wonder how people like that get the job they have.

57 more minutes til my weekend begins! No exciting plans for tonight. I'm going to take Nyquil and go to sleep early to try and kick this cold I have. I don't want to be sick for tomorrow!

 

[karentan]

ditto, think the nytol will be used, i've got a cold too. it was glorious weather here til about monday and its been getting progressively colder through the week. i was freezing last night, and today's the first time i've had the central heating on in the house for at least a month.

not quite as bored now, dexter is on, so watching that now

 

[jenny105]

It's been cold and rainy here all week. Not the norm for June. Tomorrow it's going to be 80 and sunny! Yay!

I don't think I've ever seen Dexter. That's the serial killer show right?

 

[karentan]

yeah its actually really good, its wierd rooting for the serial killer but its a good programme!
its done nothing but rain all day, but its that horrible fine rain that soaks you more than when its chucking it down. not sure about tomorrow but sunday's its supposed to be chucking it down all day. not good.
i cant wait til orlando, i need some sun! i'm going to spain for a week next month so that'll be nice, and by the time i get back it'll only be 8 weeks til florida!
