A Wigdout trip report, DISmeets, Flashing Jelly Rings and Manpris, Oh MY!

[MEK]

Happy Birthday Wigd!

Love your latest update and I must say, I admire you for wearing a showercap on Splash. I admire you even more for posting that picture! And you know what - you still look pretty good in that shower cap. Obviously, it works....the proof is in your post ride picture. I must admit, it sure looks like it beats having to duck and throw your arms over your head for protection!

OK - what's the deal with all those manpris?????? I didn't know so many people wore them. And those studded jeans??????? Who wears stuff like that in hot, Florida weather.

Happy Birthday!!

Subbing in and !
Welcome, I'm happy you are here!
Loving the manpris count. Signs, light fixtures.... I want to start a collection too!
I can't take credit for the manpris, it all got started by my dh Marc aka Shocker in Disney chat one evening.....
Enjoy your day!

So far it's been a fantastic day, thanks so much for the Birthday wish!

Happy Birthday Wigd!

Love your latest update and I must say, I admire you for wearing a showercap on Splash. I admire you even more for posting that picture!


The things I do for my DIS friends.....


And you know what - you still look pretty good in that shower cap.

Thanks, I thought it was pretty funny!

Obviously, it works....the proof is in your post ride picture. I must admit, it sure looks like it beats having to duck and throw your arms over your head for protection!

The ducking and throwing of the arms just doesn't do it for me, I still get a ruined hair mess to deal with.

OK - what's the deal with all those manpris?????? I didn't know so many people wore them. And those studded jeans??????? Who wears stuff like that in hot, Florida weather.

We had a good idea from our March trip that there were a few manpris down at Disney, but we were seeing them everywhere, I could barely put the camera away.

We thought it was a bit hot for the studded jeans but I'm pretty sure they were making a statement!

Happy Birthday!!

Thanks so much, the DIS is crazy today, and I really want to sit down and read your pre-trip!

Well Wigd., first thank you for giving us an update before you got all wrapped up in the Birthday Celebration that I am sure is happening for you!! As always it was another great installment in your Magical trip and as always there were a few things I feel the need to mention..........Now, I probably wouldn't, seeing how I have agreed to ride back here and be quiet, but since you are busy allowing them to Celebrate YOU on this day........I figured what the heck, no need for me to sit back here and be quiet since you were busy and all........so, here goes......

Shower Cap= pure genious........It really did seem to keep your hair prefectly dry......but even BETTER than that......it almost absolutely assures you of getting a seat all to yourself!! Of course, you can't blame Shocker and Baylor of wanting to act like they don't know you, but even single riders will wait for the next boat!!

Allowing your picture to be taken wearing said Shower Cap=deduction of pure genious status!!

Of course you know I am tickled pink myself to be seeing the amount of manpris pictures that we are........I am feeling very good about my "educated" guess and know that all that effort is going to pay off for me in the end!!!

OH, talking about the manpris pictures, in the one where Brother was pointing out the guy in the gray ones........I think it should be noted that the backpack brother was holding appeared to be very full and heavy?? I mean I noticed that you have that small VB over your shoulder, but that thing Shocker was toting looked like it had to be at least a 100 lbs.?? Exactly what are you making him tote through the parks all day long?? I am also certain that stopping for a Dole Whip and it being a favorite "resting" spot is more for HIM than for you!!!!!!!!

I don't think Baylor can take a bad picture!! Loved the one of him having a Donald moment!!

Mr I Won't Rent Car, I'm not sure where you are from, but I sure do thank you for that fine compliment!! I mean down here, when we hear a maimed possum "holler'n" in pain, that is a GREAT thing!! I mean, if that had been me hearing that at midnight last night, I would have jumped up, grabbed my spotlight and headed out the door in search of today's lunch!!! Oh and as far as getting that rental for our precious Wigd., I might have, but it appears that Shocker is WILLING to rent from me........next best thing to being cheap is making money on something I would have done for FREE!!!!!!!!!!

WHOO HOO Wigd. an IPhone!!!! FOR YOU!!! Geez, Brother what trouble have you been in?? You must have really pulled a good one?? Well, I sure hope that this works for you and gets you out of the dawg house!! I will say that I think a group of "them" is planning a little womens only retreat to the World, so if Wigd. acts like this didn't do it, then she is wanting to go on that trip!! Just so you know!!!!

Why do we need a BAG for a phone?? This report is worse than chat.........in chat it always turns to food, here it always turns to BAGS!!!!!!!!!!!

OK, I have entertained myself long enough, while you were out partying at Mickey D's.....I think I will lay down and take a little nap now, I have been up much too late this last few nights......so a little quiet time won't be a bad thing after all!! Happy Birthday again Anita, I do hope it was the bestest!!

 

[cjackearl]

I wonder if there is someone on another message board taking pictures of people in shower caps at Walt Disney World.

Happy Birthday, Wigd!!! I'm hungry. Whatcha thinking for your b-day dinner?

Oh yes, please feel free to comment.......

Hmmmm, do you think that way why nobody was sitting with me, possibly I lookded a little eccentric?

Allowing your picture to be taken wearing said Shower Cap=deduction of pure genious status!!

Hey thanks, that WAS my idea!

Of course you know I am tickled pink myself to be seeing the amount of manpris pictures that we are........I am feeling very good about my "educated" guess and know that all that effort is going to pay off for me in the end!!!

You did a very good job calculating, but I still have no clue what the total is.... guess you will have to keep reading.......

OH, talking about the manpris pictures, in the one where Brother was pointing out the guy in the gray ones........I think it should be noted that the backpack brother was holding appeared to be very full and heavy?? I mean I noticed that you have that small VB over your shoulder, but that thing Shocker was toting looked like it had to be at least a 100 lbs.??
Nope his was full of fluff, pure fluff, now I was carrying the important stuff.
Exactly what are you making him tote through the parks all day long?? I am also certain that stopping for a Dole Whip and it being a favorite "resting" spot is more for HIM than for you!!!!!!!!

I think we all needed that sit break, still can't remember what Baylor's problem was, I'll have to ask him, he never forgets........

I don't think Baylor can take a bad picture!! Loved the one of him having a Donald moment!!

He sure loves Donald!

Mr I Won't Rent Car, I'm not sure where you are from, but I sure do thank you for that fine compliment!! I mean down here, when we hear a maimed possum "holler'n" in pain, that is a GREAT thing!!

Oh and as far as getting that rental for our precious Wigd., I might have, but it appears that Shocker is WILLING to rent from me........next best thing to being cheap is making money on something I would have done for FREE!!!!!!!!!!

I can't wait until Shocker reads that last paragraph!
WHOO HOO Wigd. an IPhone!!!! FOR YOU!!! Geez, Brother what trouble have you been in?? You must have really pulled a good one?? Well, I sure hope that this works for you and gets you out of the dawg house!! I will say that I think a group of "them" is planning a little womens only retreat to the World, so if Wigd. acts like this didn't do it, then she is wanting to go on that trip!! Just so you know!!!!

Oh he knows how much I want to go on that trip but it isn't him that's getting in the way, it's my job. He said that he had no problem with me going!

Why do we need a BAG for a phone?? This report is worse than chat.........in chat it always turns to food, here it always turns to BAGS!!!!!!!!!!!

You can never go wrong with food or bag chat!
I'm quite excited to start the Vera hunt for the new phone!

OK, I have entertained myself long enough, while you were out partying at Mickey D's.....I think I will lay down and take a little nap now, I have been up much too late this last few nights......so a little quiet time won't be a bad thing after all!! Happy Birthday again Anita, I do hope it was the bestest!!

Thanks Buster, have a great nap, and I'll try to figure out where the bday dinner will be....

I wonder if there is someone on another message board taking pictures of people in shower caps at Walt Disney World.
How funny, I wonder if anyone took my picture and are laughing at it?
Happy Birthday, Wigd!!! I'm hungry. Whatcha thinking for your b-day dinner?

Thanks for the Bday wish, at the moment I'm thinking Olive Garden.......

The strangest part of the whole shower cap saga was how long she wore it.....She was so proud of herself and rightfully so!

When she bought that shower cap and told me what it was for, I thought, sure, like you will wear that in Disney, around all those people, and then allowed her picture to be taken wearing it. I hardly know this woman!

Of course you know I am tickled pink

myself to be seeing the amount of manpris pictures that we are........I am feeling very good about my "educated" guess and know that all that effort is going to pay off for me in the end!!!

I mean I noticed that you have that small VB over your shoulder, but that thing Shocker was toting looked like it had to be at least a 100 lbs.?? It's funny you noticed that, but after lugging that thing through the parks, I decided to weigh it. Yes, we take along our luggage scale! The backpack weighed 28 pounds!!!!!!Exactly what are you making him tote through the parks all day long?? I am also certain that stopping for a Dole Whip and it being a favorite "resting" spot is more for HIM than for you!!!!!!!!

I don't think Baylor can take a bad picture!! Loved the one of him having a Donald moment!!

Well, I sure hope that this works for you and gets you out of the dawg house!! As many times as I have been in that dawg house, I should have it furnished a little better. This is more along my lines...

I will say that I think a group of "them" is planning a little womens only retreat to the World, so if Wigd. acts like this didn't do it, then she is wanting to go on that trip!! Just so you know!!!!

I really doubt we will get to see Ronald today. I am betting it will be Stroud's Fried Chicken.

Thanks so much, after I finish DISing I'm going to work at school for a bit, did you know that I moved from 4th to 2nd grade this year?

I do remember reading that...have you ever taught that before? They will seem like babies to you compared to 4th graders. When does school start for you? I can't even imagine going to work in my classroom yet...we've only been out 2.5 weeks!

I have not taught 2nd before but am really excited about the move. I transferred to the school in my neighborhood (where my son goes) so I have a lot of work to do just sorting through my stuff to see what needs to go to the new school and what to keep at home and store in the basement.

I brought everything home so I'm slowly going through boxes and taking what I need to school.
It's hard to imagine working with them at the beginning of the year when they are really still 1st graders..

Teachers start back to school on August 11th and first day with students on the 17th, but, our last day was just before Memorial day.
It's going to go fast because we will be going to a teaching conference in Vegas in less than 2 weeks! When we get back summer will pretty much be over....

That is so great that you'll get to be where your son is. I love being at school with my kids. I know what you mean about sorting through stuff. When I packed up my classroom I was preggers and just wanted to be done. So last summer I had a HUGE job going through stuff before I went back.

I brought everything home so I'm slowly going through boxes and taking what I need to school.

Yes, they really are still so little and cute in the beginning. It's a year of big changes for them-both physically and developmentally.

A conference in Vegas...now that's something I would love to sign up for!

 

[fairyfan]

First of all, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!

I hope you are having a wonderful day.

2nd, YEAH - you are getting an iphone!!!

I am soo excited for you - You are going to love it!! I will have to let you know about all the Disney Apps they have - they even have one for all the restaurants with menus in every park, resort, etc!

If the battery goes dead in your camera again - it takes great pictures!

Once again

Shocker you did good!! Or should I say will do good when AT and T comes through for you!

Ok, the shower cap was genius.

Enough of this talk!


Are you people still partying at your house?

 

[wigdoutdismom]

Enough of this talk!


Are you people still partying at your house?

We are! Planning to go to Famous Dave's and eat off the garbage can lid tonight! The plan is to save enough room for some bread pudding to top it off! I ended up yesterday being very lazy so we have extended the celebration by a day!

 

[Blesseddaddy]

Are you people still partying at your house?

I'd like to guess, if that's OK?? Let's see Wigd. is sleeping in, after a full day of celebrating and we may not see her again until the wee hours of the morning "tomorrow"!! Shocker on the other hand, has pitched a tent in front of the store, having declared he would not return home without the IPhone!!

How funny, you were posting as I was!! My hats off to Shocker, my brother is sooooooooo smart..........extend the Birthday Celebration UNTIL the IPhone comes in!! Sure is better than having to camp out at the store!! My hats off to you brother!!! OH and Wigd. since the party continues, Happy Birthday AGAIN!!

I was a slug yesterday, spent the day on the sofa, in my jammies! Lot's of DISing, and TV watching.....
I WAS up this morning however to meet my first and second grade teacher buddies from my new school for our bi/wkly meeting at McDonalds at 8:30!
Poor Shocker is out mowing at my mom's house and her rentals today. What a guy!

Yesterday, while watching Gene Simmons Family Jewels, I noticed that Shannon Tweed had a white iphone, so I think I will have to name mine Shannon Tweed in her honor...

Thanks Buster, you're the best!

I'm not sure when to expect that Iphone, I won't be holding my breath, they seem a bit hard to come by in these here parts....

How did you like my southern talk?

 

[IluvXU]

Teaching conference in Vegas... do tell! I really am holding off for one in WDW... DH had one there right after I had Emily, hopefully again someday.

Our Xavier Musketeers are playing over Thanksgiving at The Wide World of Sports... that is not tempting only because my DH would pick the games and I am not talented enough to entertain three kids at WDW.

 

[wigdoutdismom]

It's the National Conference for Differentiated Instruction. We went last summer to the regional in Columbus, Ohio. Our district is sending us so our only expense will be shopping, shows and gambling!

I wish for a conference in Disney too!
You would have your hands full trying to keep up with the kids while dh is enjoying his sports. I know I couldn't do it!
