April 2010 ABD Backstage Magic : California Here We Come!!!

[MenashaCorp]

Okay, what have I gotten myself into?!?!?!?!? Just kidding! Y'all sound like a hoot!

I heard about the "Single Ladies Dance" on the Podcast. How did that come about? Is this a DIS Cruise insider joke? Seeing that might be worth the cost of the trip alone. Glad to be traveling with a fun bunch of people. That is another reason I wanted to take this tour with DISers and not random people. We "get it" and this whole experience will be amazing.

Nah - I believe Kevin mentioned on an earlier podcast that John did it once at home and almost killed poor Kevin by inducing apoplectic laughter.

We're harmless... well, except Kathy. She bites.


only six not yet on the list!!! Come out come out whoever you are!!!

I'm in the same boat as y'all. I don't personally know anyone on the trip besides DH. Listening to the Podcast each week, I feel as if I know Pete, Walter, Kevin, John and Kathy. This trip should be full of all kinds of stories when we get back!

Jennifer

Add us to the list of folks who don't know most of the persons going on this trip. We met Pete, John and Kevin at the Gaylord Palms live show.

Is anyone thinking about attending the Dis-a-Palooza event?

 

[katscradle]

OUCH! Right before the holidays.

Thanks for the info Kevin.

That's o.k. though consider it your x-mas gift.
That's what we will be doing.
Since I am in charge of the buying of gifts for x-mas it's going to be a cheap x-mas for everyone. Can you say Partylite!
I sell partylite so my family and friends will be receiving partylite.
As I get alot of it for free.

Yes we will be there.
However be prepared we will have our boy's with us.
Now please don't anyone mention this trip to them.

I will probably be the only one that is going to be happy with the 120 payment due date. BUT... My DH said that I can not buy anything for myself until the trip is paid off. Which I find not quite fair, but whatever. I have a BAD Nike habit. I need to be able to buy stuff.

I'm planning to be at DIS-A-PALOOZA. After all the fun I had later year, I might as well try out out in real life.

I probably need to tighten the purse strings too. However, we have two more WDW trips planned this year (June and November/December). Our lodging (DVC) and tickets (AP) are paid. However, we always seem to spend lots of $$$$$ @ WDW. It's inevitable. We are booked on a cruise leaving from PC on Thanksgiving Day. Our first non-Disney cruise in four years. We haven't fully given up on DCL. We still have money tied up with DCL that we plan to keep pushing the sail date out until the new ships arrive. That's one bad thing about booking a suite, you can't get a refund on your deposit.

When is DIS-A-PALOOZA????? I didn't think any dates were set in stone yet. I was so bummed we didn't get to attend the TSM party. It sounded like a lot of fun.

The dates have not been announced. We're booked at Saratoga Springs from 12/6-9. If it's before or after those dates it won't be hard for us to go over for a night or two.

If it is keeping with the same timing as Mousefest, it should be the weekend of 12/11. I'll be at SSR 12/10- 12/13.

Today at the Disney Archives, 40 adults, who claimed to have been "abducted by two black gentlemen" were taken into custody after their impromptu Single Ladies Dance routine shattered priceless Disney heirlooms and broke local decency laws...




Shhhhhhh!!!! Ix-Nay!! Ix-Nay!!!

Just think then, you can save for the spending spree that you can take on te trip. That's what I am going to do.
I am not buying anything that is not an absolute must until this trip.
I will even be restraining myself when we go on our WDW trip in Dec.
If we don't need it why buy it...

 

[katscradle]

I will be there

We will be there with you..

I know. We just spent (well not *just*, it was in Jan) 15 days at WDW and US/IOA. AND I just spent the last two weekends on fly-away trips, one for my mom's retirement and one with my girlfriends in Boise shopping, AND we have a cruise and San Diego trip in Sept, AND now I get to go on this amazing trip...

I guess that I should be incredibly grateful and stop complaining that I don't get to buy stuff! Now that I look at it from this view, I am a very lucky girl! Don't you feel sorry for me?

Actually, I know that this will all come to an abrupt halt next year when my oldest son starts driving. The insurance will not be cheap and we would like to buy a new car. Right now we have no car payments, but that will change.

Ugh, I hate it when I start thinking logical.

 

[MerriePoppins]

I'm starting to bat around ideas on what to do pre-trip. It could be fly into LA and spend the weekend or San Diego or San Francisco. I'm leaning towards San Deigo since I've never been there and would love to see the Zoo/Wild Animal Park.

Kathy,
The Zoo is wonderful....I love the Polar Bear exhibit.

 

[Dodie]

Hi Susan!

 

[MerriePoppins]

Hi Susan!

Dodie !!!!

How is your weekend going so far?

Today was yard work for me....ugh.....I hate it.

Tell me about it, It kind of puts a damper on things.
I don't know about the son driving though, especially the new car.

 

[spokanemom]

Ohh, no!!!! Son will not have access to the new car, but to the old one, a 2001 Kia. We will keep that for him and his younger brother to drive. A new driver in a new car, that is just asking for trouble!
