An Inconvenient Truth: happyhaunt Style! (New... pg. 113!)

[kpk89]

OK Mellymel. I just read that latest chapter to my kids. They want you to adopt them. Because we've never even BEEN to TSI or BTMR. Seriously.

I mentioned this elsewhere, regarding Splash. But I'll repeat. Because Piper would NOT go on it. No way, too scary. At Storyland (the Disney of the North) last weekend she went on the faux Splash. Bamboo Chutes they call it. And here's what she said. (sorry to anyone who's heard this already)

"I was a little QUEEEEEZEEEEEEEE, but not SCARED. Because, "
((shrugs her little shoulders))
"It's STORYland. Why would the make something DANGERous?"

Apparently Disney WOULD, in her opinion.

Anywho, I am still loving your reports. Despite the disappointing absence of decent pictures.

 

[kpk89]

Nevermind.....

What are YOU looking at?

 

[Slsguy]

OMG, this is just the funniest TR I have read - granted I have only read 2 or 3, but this great! I only hope it's finished before I go to BWV - by the way, were the rooms nice? Did you make it to the quite pool at all?

You have a great familly! Keep the TR comming!

 

[kathyg]

Kinda OT, but here goes....Gary Sinise will be narrating the Candlelight Processional December 24 - 26. But I guess you all already knew that.

 

[UtahMama]

Mel, your trip report is ....I'm speechless, It's that good. I like your style! I am so on the Tom Sawyer Paint-brushes! That sounds like "fun"! Thank you for entertaining me as I wait to go "for reals".
I made the HUGE error of starting my TR 43 days before we leave (now 16 days) and it became a big sham! It'll be a good (cross my fingers) once I actually have a trip to report on!
I think your kids are so cute! And FUNNY! Especially the koala! At least he doesn't "meow" in public like my dd2 does.

(blurt...)
Sooo??? Is your pony tail "real" or do you have Barbie hair?

Great Trip Report! Loving It and Subscribing!

UtahMama you just can't start a pre-trip report early enough. Ask Javamom about that...
I have no doubt at all that your trippie will be good.

 

[HaleyB]

Yeah, I duck too.

... "Calvin! Any more koala noises out of you and your mother will put you in a Fairy Timeout! Hear?"

What is a Fairy Timout?

ROFL... no doubt!!!



All I want for Christmas is... no more stitches. Well, that and a trip to Disney. Is that a lot? LOL

 

[luvmyboys]

This is a first for me Mel! I've spent the last 45 minutes sitting here catching up on your TR, all the while IGNORING my growling, grumpy tummy!

As a RULE, I never, ever let myself go hungry (c'mon, that would just be cruelty you know!). I haven't even gotten up for the Diet Pepsi I've been craving (sorry UtahMama- blasphemy, I know!)

So... I officially declare the "happyhaunt diet" to be quite successful. I am looking forward to both your future installments, and the smaller behind I will acquire from reading them! Richard Simmons ain't got NUTHIN on you!!

 

[UtahMama]

Actually the Happy Haunt diet SUCKS for me. (Sorry Mel!). I sit and snack as I read...like there's a gun to my head or something. AND, apparently it is a myth that drinking diet Pepsi with a snack of say, a Twinkie's two-pack, will cancel out the fat grams and calories. I know this for a fact.

 

[bdg100]

What is a Fairy Timout?

Mr. Silly:

Don't ask. You will get some equally confusing answer that gives occasion to many more (and far more perplexing) questions than the one you originally asked. Just go with it. Pretend you understand, and smile.

Further affiant sayeth not.

What is a Fairy Timout?

Mr. Silly, Fairy Timeouts are thoroughly explained in the prequel to this trip report. I believe it was called "The Happyhaunts Go South: An Endless Trip Report." You mean you haven't read it? You can't just jump in in the middle of the series, man!

Go NOW, and Read this, Mr. Silly. It'll only take you five-teen days!

Go!

 

[jakensydsmom]

I finally, finally caught up. That took days! You made me laugh and cry and scratch my head. What does TFI mean, anyway? And seriously, what was Sher saying.

Inside jokes are so cruel. To the outsiders.
Which is the point, is it not?

Like how I copied your creative grammar there? Or maybe that's how everyone in the Great White North writes, eh? TOH

I am so only eating three bites of everything from now because I am dusting off my bikinis for our April trip! And we are going to TSI and we will find paintbrushes - you just wait. I have a six year old daughter who is cut you off at knees competitive. Seriously, for her it is not enough to win, you must also humiliate. She will LOVE that. Unless she doesn't win, in which case the day will be RUINED. Hmm, I must ponder this further.

Time for a new installment! Get crackin'!

 

[mikayla73]

This is a great TR. I actually sat here today reading all 52 pages (ok well I did skip some, but note the actual report). My DH has given up on me and went to the store to get some food, in hopes that I would finish this before he returned and actually cook something for us to eat cause I am STARVING! Hmmmm a new diet, reading TR's

I will now need to do a search to find your previous TR's, DH is starting back to school tomorrow so I will need something to do in my free time after work while he is gone it keeps me outta trouble too

 

[1000thhappyhaunt]

Figment's Pal ~ Thanks so much. Maelstrom! Back at ya. My condolences for your experience. Riding Maelstrom. Just remember: You have not been the first to pass that way. I'm here for you.

GA Kitty ~ Don't get your hopes up. WE ALSO DO THE REDNECK PICS. Of rides. And other things. How could we NOT? We're thrifty. happyhaunts.

Jills ~ Thanks. Hope you love the newer new title too.

BDG 10(ish) ~ The bleach blond with the Tigger ears on. Sitting in the corner of 50's Prime Time Cafe is Me(l). I'm pretty sure it's... as plain as day. NOT NEL. And not Ricardo Montalban. Either. Although both of them are... as cute as a button. Similes, everyone...similies! Heh heh.

angelmav ~ I'm crackin'. I'm crackin!

ncseric ~ You are safe(ish).

celerystalker ~ Are you my old grade six teacher Mrs. Black? She repeatedly told me I had the WORSE pensmanship she'd seen in her whole 30 years of teaching. As well. She also used to throw chalk and erasers at me. In class. To get me to shut up. So to speak. Heh heh. Anywho: Hi! I missed you!

La La ~ Haaaaaaaaaaaaaa Ha Ha! Ha! HA! Too funny! I've got a cramp in my calf now. Ow. And... I'm not surprised you duck too. Mela ducks. Straight up. Heh heh. Know what? You STILL make me want to la la.

Offwego ~ I would have responded sooner. But I was off. Camping. This past weekend.

Kim ~ Your kids wish me to adopt them only because you are SO MEAN. Face it. We all know the truth. Here. At the Dis. Sorry about the pics. I'll try to do better. (Cower)

Kim ~ What I just sad. (duo-cower)

Slsguy ~ Thanks! But you MUST read MORE TR's. Then just two or three. If this one is the best... you're reading the WRONG ones. TFI.

Kathyg ~ I know. Sadly, we cannot make it. At Christmas all the happyhaunts are deployed to West Point by The General. Bless her.

Utah Mama ~ Wow! Thanks! So much. And... sometimes I meow in public too. Your DD may never outgrow it. Heh heh. And... I am an old model. Year 1968. No air-conditioning. No power-locks. I went with the "Barbie hair" option. For starters. And then:
1. The big teeth option.
2. The Charlie Brown feet one.
3. The slightly crooked, broken nose option. Thanks to an up-close and personal encounter with a lacrosse stick.
4. The large buttcheek scar option. Thanks to an up-close and personal encounter with a rampant bacterial infection. Much like the Flesh-eating Disease.

Yes.

All that.

Just to "pimp my ride".

Haley ~ Word!

Haley ~ Good. You duck too. We still be borg. Then.

Mr. Silli ~ That question earns you a Fairy Timeout. Now... arms high and tight to your sides. Hands up. Like tiny wings. Now... flutter, flutter, flutter. And skip. And hum.

FASTER!

Java ~ !!!!!!! Missed ya! Where is your edit?

luvyourboys ~ Richards Simmons is much cooler. However... we both dress the same. Heh heh.

J and S's Mom ~ TFI = FYI. Sometimes I type too quickly and cannot be bothered to go back and corrrrect mistalkes. TFI. And... please don't think me cruel. I'm not about being cruel. I'm also not about being kind. TFI. And I think Sher was telling me that my shirt was too tight.

Mr. Silli, too. Heh heh.

Mikayla ~ Looky up two posts above yours. AND... THANKS!

ZZUB ~ ~










Alrighty... back with more. I'm crackin'.

Cheers, Mel.

 

[sheridac]

And I think Sher was telling me that my shirt was too tight.

Actually. I was sadin' it's just the right amount of tightness. IMO. Even tho that sounds weird. It's not.

TFI

 

[GOOFYsince71]

Great new Title Mel!!!
I hope it gets picked up by one of the Fall
Primetime Lineups on T.V.
I could just see it now.....
"When we last visited the Happyhaunts,
they were all Packing into the Car on the
way to the Airport........again!!!
As they pulled away,,,somewhere in the
distance,,,the familiar sound of a koala.
The neighbors all file out into the street,
Some crying uncontrollably,knowing things will
not be the same, till the family returns."


Anywho,,,,,The Hits just keep on coming........
Title after Title.........
Maybe for the sake of nostalgia, you can keep a
running title........with all of them......so we can fondly
remember them!!!!!

Thanks for my morning Dose!

 

[PaulDavid's mom]

Ohhh. Could you imagine if this was a sitcom? How awsome would that be I would be glued to my tv. Seriously. Like i'm glued to this trip report. Nothing would get done around my house. My little boy would be running around with a jar of peanut butter and a spoon. In his underwear and nothing else cause I wouldn't have time to feed the family and do laundry AND watch that awsome show. I know what my priorities are. Hehe. Just kidding. Maybe.

Done. Post #1. Of this thread.

Thanks! Too!
