A Very Chit-Chat Thread

Sounds like fun!

I love S.F. and I wish I got out there more often. I was actually just at the S.F. Zoo this past week at some point trying to finish some stuff up for my ECE presentation. Now I really want to make it out to a Giants game sometime soon.

My sister & her fiance LOVE the Giants! They go to a few games every season.
I would love to go to one game, it would be fun. I've been to a few minor league games. Baseball is the only sport I think I can sit through a whole game and actually understand what's going on!

 

[Belle Ella]

That's almost how I feel about hockey. I like baseball and I've been a Giants fan my whole life, but not like die hard or anything (but I defintiely went for the Victory parade when they won the WS last year) but my aunt and cousin are huge fans. I've been spending a lot of time with them lately so I've been watching their games more than I have in a long while so I'm getting hooked again. But I definitely prefer to be at games. It's a little too slow paced for me to really enjoy watching on TV.

I will be in San Francisco on June 22. My kids are going to concerts. Kacy and a friend of hers are going to one at the Filmore and Kody and Loren are going to one at the Warfield. It works out perfect for Scotty and I to play tourist.

Exactly! Sports are much more entertaining in real life than on tv. Especially for someone like me who isn't really that into sports. But being there with all the action, it's just much more exciting and creates such a fun atmosphere!

Jillian, I am happy you got lucky with your Vinylmations at that parks!

Only this would happen to me, lol:

I can try and trade them, but there aren't a lot of people willing to ship to Canada, cause it costs a little more. I will see what I can do though!

Speaking of computers, mine is being so finicky lately. I am going to have to get Dillon to see what's up. Everything keeps "not responding" and it's getting REALLY frustrating.

Anyways going back to catch up on the rest of the conversation, lol.

Perfectly said!

OK, so I think I'm going to talk to my supervisor and let her know I need a weekend off or something. Haha. See if she can cover for me that weekend. If only the store opened earlier I would get the Vinyl's and then hop over to AT&T Park for the Giants game. That could be an awesomely fun day in the making right there. I'll ask my cousin if she's interested in going to a game.

Hey Michele, any idea what you'll do while you're there?

Andrea, Disney Store locations should start doing the clear trade boxes on Monday. I would hope they do the same up in Canada so at least you might be able to do that on your next trip even though I know they aren't the easiest for you to get to.

Well, Jessica we are talking about walking around Fisherman's Wharf. But, who knows? I do know that we will eat but I think we will not be eating fancy.

 

[DisneyStitch626]

Oh Paula I wish I could be in DLR in June!
The vinlymation we are talking about is the AP exclusive one featuring the Little Mermaid. It will be released in June, according to the artofdisneyparks website. & it looks like this:

YAY for your trip being soooo close!

I LOVE that Vinyl. It's so cute! And something about the clear style always gets me.

Aw man, looks what's being released in San Francisco on the 26th:

9-inch:

3-inch:

The store they'll be at in S.F. opens at 11 that day. I'm going to try and be there for the release. We'll see how that goes seeing as I'll be working overnight into that Sunday. That's gonna be rough.

Those are cute!

I am hoping they would do it here, but I am not going to depend on it too much! I might post in the Vinyl trading thread and see if I get any catches. That's what I did with COP dude, and he went right away.

 

[Belle Ella]

Cool beans. I'm sure you'll find something to do.

 

[kaoden39]

Oh I am sure that in San Francisco there are lots of places to go.

Hope that does it for you. Maybe try calling one of the stores on Monday, that way you know without going in? The Vinylmation site didn't say it was specific to US stores so I think the likelihood is good. I haven't gotten lucky with our trade thread here, but I still get a lot of deals done on my other site.

I will give them a call tomorrow and see what they say! Would for sure be worth a try.

I still haven't done any posts or anything on that other thread. I might get lucky if I start doing that! I've got it all set up to.

 

[Belle Ella]

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! I'm totally dropping by the mall after work tomorrow.

 

[DisneyStitch626]

I might be in luck already with my duplicate I got yesterday. Back when I ordered the first clear one, I had ordered two as well, and gave one to a friend cause I felt generous that day I guess. Anyways, it's a different colour than these ones, so she is going to trade it to me.

But I still have Donald to try and trade. And I am considering trading my bumble bee from Urban 6, not a huge fan of him, and there are some other Urban 6 ones I want.

 

[Belle Ella]

Sounds awesome!

I bought the first two Pirates movies on Blu-ray today!!! Actually I only paid $2 for the taxes. We had a $30 gift card, and the movies were only $15, so we got them for basically nothing. And they have vouchers for the new movie in them, so we get to see that one for free now too! I'd say that's a pretty good deal. Might try to convince Dillon to do that tonight, since I don't know how much time we have left to do things like that.

Actually today I haven't been sure if we have any time left. Every time we are walking around, I get pains, but when I sit it goes away.

I think that tonight is a good time!!

I think so too. We'll have to see if Dillon is in the mood or not though. He is not a big fan of our big movie theatre. I don't blame him. It's always soooo busy, and for being only 3 years old, it's really surprising how much it is falling apart already. In the winter, half the heaters weren't working. Most of the screens have a scratch or some sort of thing wrong with them that wrecks the movie. It's just crazy. But this is free! So I can get past that for one night.
