Bring us a Shrubbery!! May 25-June 1, 2007!!

Is it so wrong to wish for a flatbread with some prosciutto, mild white cheese, and perhaps some apples?

Ooohhhhh, that sounds really good!

Ooohhhhh, that sounds really good!

Maybe the next time we're there I'll suggest that the chef whip one up for us to see if it tastes as good as it sounds!

My mother-in-law is going to take a look at my fancy-schmancy dress tomorrow night after I leave work and see if she can't fix my obvious inability to support the bodice with my own unspectacular bust.

She's a great seamstress - makes incredible quilts - and every now and then takes pity on me and will fix my clothes.

I bribe her with chocolate...works almost every time!

Brenda - as I was trying to find the newest posts, I re-read the "exotic hand ritual" part and had this flash:
Identically clad snooty manicurists breaking out in the hand jive whilst squirts of different colored hand cream flew everywhere. Think 1940s musical -- Mel Brooks style.
LOL Oh, I amuse myself.

Heheheh. Anything seems better when you Mel Brooks-i-fy it.
I would pay more to get the floor show with my manicure!

Reminds me of Seinfeld.

This is truly one of the funniest reports!

Holy Crap! Where have I been? I'm here nearly everyday and I'm just now getting on board! We are going nearly the exact same days! Don't forget your lime green stuff so that perfect strangers like me can come up to you and start talking to you and hugging you like we've known you forever (actually, I'm pretty much like that anyway). But even more so for people in Lime Green!

Just over three weeks!!!!! Can't wait! Hope to see you there!

Thank you so much! As I said earlier, we're here all summer!

Hi DisneyDad!! Thanks for stopping by and posting!

Please, if you see us, be sure to say hello. I'll tell you the same thing I tell everyone else - we're harmless!

Have a great trip and I'll be checking out your pre-trippie very soon!

Hey everybody!

I wanted to thank all of you who were so kind last week to post good wishes for my test results which I finally received today. Long story short - they are leading to more tests. I had an ultrasound this morning and will be having a colonoscopy on the 14th (at least I get a 3-day weekend...and I'm guaranteed to lose a few pounds!).

After all is said and done I'm probably looking at having to change-up my Crohns medication and I may be looking at a couple of months of steroid therapy (yuck!), but I won't know that for sure for another week or two.

Thanks again for your kindness and support - you're a great group of DISers.

Just want to wish you all the best with the upcoming tests, Brenda.

 

[DisneyDadFaNaTic]

Doubling up on the prayers for you! I hope everything turns out all right!

My folks and two of my sisters (and many nieces and nephews) live in Alton, IL. Right across the river. I really love St. Louis. We go about twice a year for the zoo and the science center!

Good luck!

Thank you very much - I appreciate it!

I love the fact that the zoo and the science center are still admission-free - I think that's a great way to encourage families and tourists to see what they have to offer. When you're visiting do you make a pilgrimage to Ted Drewes? I wish I was eating it right now!

Good luck, B.

Thanks Erica...I'm going to go read more of your trippies for a therapeutic laugh.

Yay, a colonoscopy. Those are fun.

Prayers coming your way

Hey brenda,

I'm another one that followed you over from your trip report. Another great report and Plankton is simply amazing.


Hope everything goes well for you on your next set of tests.

Brenda, good luck on the colonoscopy.

Thanks Jennifer. I don't mind the procedure itself (my doctor dopes me up so much I can't remember my own name for hours afterwards) it's the pre-test stuff that I hate. I'm sure you hear that all the time.

Hey brenda,

Thanks so much for reading the argie and for taking the plunge into the shrubbery - I'm so glad you're here and I hope you have fun! Isn't Plankton a hoot? We have plans for him later this month...oh yes we do!

Hope everything goes well for you on your next set of tests.

Thank you very much.

Brenda, good luck on the colonoscopy.

Thanks, I appreciate the good thoughts! How's that WDW trip coming along for you? Good, I hope!

Brenda, I hope the test goes smoothly, that the pretrip stuff isn't too hard on you and your body, and that whatever they do, you're feeling better before your trip!

Good morning, my dearest Brenda. I just have one question for you on this fine morning...

Cake or Death?

Just my fly-by random post of the day! We've been watching The Riches over here (great show if you haven't seen it - it's on FX), and I dug this clip up to show Jordan, 'cause she hasn't seen Dress to Kill yet. Anyway, just wanted to cheer you up a bit... in my weird way.

Right now it's a little on hold until after my grad party this weekend. But after that, it's full force baybee!

Thanks Michelle - I can't access the video here at work so I'll have to wait until I get home, but without having seen anything I'm going to choose the cake! I haven't watched the show but I've seen previews and have heard that it's received really good reviews. I love Minnie Driver so you'd think that would be some incentive to watch, but I think the show is on kind of late for me (on normal nights I'm in bed by 10PM...I needs me some sleep!).

Right now it's a little on hold until after my grad party this weekend. But after that, it's full force baybee!

Well congratulations to you! I'm probably late suggesting this, but did you know that you can go to WDW's website and order personalized maps of all four parks? We just got ours last week and they look so cool!

If you haven't ordered them yet, you should - they're a great keepsake and maybe seeing all that the world has to offer will help your DH make the right decision.
