Canadian Buffoon's Disney With a Teen Vacation - 08/13 - The Wrap

[DISNEYMOON10121991]

I'm not doing any of that, this chapter!

So we can look forward to future chapters of some pictures,
some laughter (probably of you), some fears (what's going to happen to Pkondz now!) and hopefully only one episode of tears (guessing when you have to leave)
You started this....Can you hear the song playing again?

So of course, we decided to take the kids.
(and when I say "we", I mean "she".
I am nothing if not cowed.)

I don't think you would mind it a bit. Spending time in the sun with the family sounds like a good thing in Feb.

The next thing I knew, this trip had suddenly become
a lot more expensive.
I had planned on doing 2 or 3 excursions plus a luau.
Well, I had to cut out all excursions,
leaving just the luau.

That stinks. I know the feeling. I've had a long time to wish big plans for our trip , but that will depend on the budget

So I emailed her back again, and said.
"But if you'd like an escort for the evening, I'd be delighted."

You're so nice!

Of course by Sunday I was in full blown sick mode.
Thanks TB Kid! You're awesome!

Yuck! Somethings you just can't see coming. I will remember to stay away from people one week before leaving

But I know how much Ruby hates coming home
from a holiday to a dirty house.

That deserves a good husband crown for that. First of all, thinking about cleaning and second to do it when sick.

To say I was shocked was an understatement.
When I had brought my car in a while back,
it had taken them about two months to repair it.

Do you have some kind of thing with this repair shop? Kind of like a sandwich place, after so many visits you get a free sandwich (maybe an oil change?) You do seem to have cars in the shop often
Did Elle bring it in?...she's girl, you're a guy, you can wait

I might also send along some chocolate.

ooooh...chocolate covered Macadamia Nuts!
When me and my friend went to Hawaii (we were 18 -legal drinking age) the only thing in our mini frig was:
Our leis from the plane so they stayed fresh, orange juice for in the AM/make screwdriver drinks PM, and a box of choc macadamia nuts!

So this is what I think:
1. Flight is on time
2. Early flight so crying/cranky kid
3. I've got two animals in mind so it might be a 50/50 guess. But I'm going with a rabbit.
( so I hope its NOT a dang bird)
4. You get room upgrade
5. You go on a volcano tour

 

[orangecats2]

And when is the next ding dang update?

You were in my dream last night!!!

 

[seashell724]

So excited to read more about your report. AHHHHHHHH. This airport here! We often don't turn off properly and have to circle the whole thing. It is so frustrating!

 

[pkondz]

It's been a couple of very long days.
(Details later. Along with the missing kitchen incident.)
I came on here to start call outs.
Got distracted by a few other TRs...
(Still have one to read. I will get there.)

And now I'm done.
Going to bed.
But I did... I did! read all your comments!
Thanks so much and see you when I'm more awake.
(I was going to say alert, but that's never gonna happen.)

 

[pkondz]

YES EXACTLY!!! We all knew what would happen if we licked the fence but there was always some kid that tried it anyway.

Well.... I was that kid.
When I was really little (pre-school)
my sister came home with this crazy story
of how she'd heard if you stick your tongue
on a pole in winter, it'll stick.

Pfftt... not likely.

We were going out somewhere,
so I hurried and went out to our swing set.
I grabbed a (metal) seat and...

Well, I'll be darned. The tale was true.
I was too embarrassed to wait for help,
so I just pulled the seat away.

I was very quiet on the car ride.
I had to be.
My mouth was filled with blood.

That's just cruel. I thought they had changed the rules over the last 20 years but I guess it's just because I moved. Kids here get to stay in if it's below freezing. Which is good because half of them are wearing shorts.

Below freezing????
If we did that, the rule would be:
No kids outside between October and June.

I never smoke and tell!

Oh yeah that's right, we all lost a bet...

If this TR isn't an endorsement against gambling,
I don't know what is.

Almost. Going out into the arctic with a wet foot was the worst! It just froze into a block of ice.

You did get cake, it was of the cruelty variety.

I prefer chocolate.

Miraculously no, my coat was a great barrier. I was really surprised.

So you got lucky. Good for you.

Oh yeah, you said you would replace her with a fish if she was lost. Well then I guess the rule was made for parents who actually want to keep their kids.

Oh. Those parents.

Well if one less mouth to feed is a good thing, wouldn't two less be even better? Go ahead, write what you said.

(Just kidding, I know you love your girls)

Of course I love them.
They do chores.

You had two of them in the car with you. Just switch seats before the cop reaches you.

While I think of my DDs as beautiful...
I do NOT think of them as Hawt Chicks.

Haaaa!!! Yes the cutting and gloating is almost better than not waiting in line... Do you glance back and laugh at all the people waiting in standby?

Actually, no.
I hold my nose up as I parade past the unwashed masses
and surreptitiously watch them from the corner of my eye.
If I see one staring, or better yet, their shoulders
visibly slump, I consider it a win.

I knew you would say that. While that's true, my response would have been the same before leaving Canada.

Oh! So you're the "angry Canadian" that I've heard rumours about!

YAY I WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You said it, too late to change your mind now.

Okay. You win. You can get laid... lei'ed.

Of course, crazy is way better than normal. Normal is just boring.

You are anything but boring.

What if I posted it? I don't have male or female listed in my profile. Would I get banned?

We all know what you are.
Plus, pretty sure you're female, too.

That's so funny!! We didn't even have the internet to compare notes back then. It must have been "my friend at another school hides in the bathroom at recess, let's try that!" Word spread old school style.

Old school words spread old school style.

I can't even imagine going out at that temperature anymore. Freezing is cold enough.

I reiterate: you've lived down south too long.

 

[pkondz]

Oh man! Of course! Elmo is Sesame Street not Disney!

Damn it Elmo! You got me into trouble AGAIN!

Stupid puppet. Post away!

 

[pkondz]

Well Hello! I kept thinking you were gone..

I was! No I is not!

Anyway, welcome back!

Thanks, Tammie!

It stinks that you had to be sick just in time for your trip. I hope you start to feel better.

Well.....

Can't wait to see your pictures!

Got the first day cropped and uploaded.
Now just gotta find the time to write!

1. On time
2. Some guy next to Ruby kept coughing
3. Ocean View
4. A comfort guinea pig
Bonus ? A submarine tour!

Noted.

Looking forward to your next update

Coming soon to... well... here.

 

[pkondz]

Thank you!

Just read through your TR and thoroughly enjoyed it.

And you're okay, still? Congratulations! You'd be the first!
And to the TR!

As a family who travel to WDW in August each year I thought it would be an interesting read but was not prepared for what an excellent read it was due to your wit and fantastic writing style.

Aw... shucks.
Wait.... Are you sure you're posting on the right TR?

Your other TRs are on my must read list

Just a warning, though. A lot of the chapter links got broken
with the move to the new board.

Happy reading!
(I can't be held responsible for any medical issues
that crop up as a result.)

 

[pkondz]

Can't say...
Try it and see.

Then I can quote it and see if it attracts a Mod or not.

Do NOT get her banned!!

Aaaaa, Hummmm... Wha...
Did you say something?

Who?

 

[pkondz]

So we can look forward to future chapters of some pictures,

Already got the first batch ready.

some laughter (probably of you),

Probably at me.

some fears (what's going to happen to Pkondz now!)

That will happen on the next chapter, I believe.

and hopefully only one episode of tears (guessing when you have to leave)

Or if I stub a toe, or something.

You started this....Can you hear the song playing again?

I don't think you would mind it a bit. Spending time in the sun with the family sounds like a good thing in Feb.

It turned out to be a bit of a blessing, actually.

That stinks. I know the feeling. I've had a long time to wish big plans for our trip , but that will depend on the budget

Budget. Is that one of the worst words in the English language?

You're so nice!

Anyone would do the same.

Yuck! Somethings you just can't see coming. I will remember to stay away from people one week before leaving

Make it two. Or wear this:

That deserves a good husband crown for that. First of all, thinking about cleaning and second to do it when sick.

Nah... It's all self-preservation.
If I don't clean up, she'd smack me.

Do you have some kind of thing with this repair shop? Kind of like a sandwich place, after so many visits you get a free sandwich (maybe an oil change?) You do seem to have cars in the shop often
Did Elle bring it in?...she's girl, you're a guy, you can wait

True story.
Last time, I was not a happy camper.
I got screwed around... a lot.
But... they did a good job in the end, so...

I walk in with Elle, and the manager
waves at me from his office.

ooooh...chocolate covered Macadamia Nuts!

Nope. Sorry. Didn't bring any home.
We can actually get them at Costco!
(Well, around Christmas, when all the chocolates come out.)

When me and my friend went to Hawaii (we were 18 -legal drinking age) the only thing in our mini frig was:
Our leis from the plane so they stayed fresh, orange juice for in the AM/make screwdriver drinks PM, and a box of choc macadamia nuts!

A well balanced meal!

So this is what I think:
1. Flight is on time
2. Early flight so crying/cranky kid
3. I've got two animals in mind so it might be a 50/50 guess. But I'm going with a rabbit.
( so I hope its NOT a dang bird)
4. You get room upgrade
5. You go on a volcano tour

Noted.

 

[pkondz]

And when is the next ding dang update?

When I write the ding dang thing!
(I think I'm going to start saying ding dang
to everything. I like it.)

I do have the photos ready to go,
just not sure when I'm going to get a chance to write.

You were in my dream last night!!!

Of course I was. I have that affect on women.
I'm sure it went something.... like this:

A dimly lit bar, smooth jazz emanating from the piano in the corner.
Carrie sits at the bar.
The little black dress she's wearing is cut low in front.
The line from her nylons stretch from her impeccably manicured toes,
lovingly caressed by her five inch stilettos, all the way up to mid thigh.
The snaps of her garter belt, just visible below the hem
of her too-short-yet-not-short-enough dress, beckon seductively.

The bartender places her favourite drink in front of her.
"From the gentleman." The bartender says, nodding to a corner table.
Carrie glances over as Pkondz rises from the table
and sidles over towards her.
They clink glasses.
He leans in and whispers in her ear:
"I will do anything you wish. I will fulfill your every desire.
Merely tell me your command in three little words."

Carrie smiles. Her eyes are smoky with desire.
She leans forward and as she does so,
pkondz's breath catches in his throat.
Her scent is intoxicating.
With his heart beating a ragged tattoo,
he can only imagine what she will say.

She runs a hand up the back of his neck,
while the other rests casually on his thigh.

And she whispers... oh, so softly, enchantingly, in his ear...

"Paint my house."

 

[pkondz]

So excited to read more about your report.

Soon! Just gotta find some time.

AHHHHHHHH. This airport here! We often don't turn off properly and have to circle the whole thing. It is so frustrating!

It's very common to see cars stopped in the middle of the road
or even backing up, trying to figure out where they're supposed to go.

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

Well, I'll be darned. The tale was true.
I was too embarrassed to wait for help,
so I just pulled the seat away.

I was very quiet on the car ride.
I had to be.
My mouth was filled with blood.

Gah! And everyone wondered why they couldn't understand anything you said for the next 3 days.

Of course I was. I have that affect on women.
I'm sure it went something.... like this:

A dimly lit bar, smooth jazz emanating from the piano in the corner.
Carrie sits at the bar.

And she whispers... oh, so softly, enchantingly, in his ear...

"Paint my house."

But hey, you still beat me. At least you sat at the same table with her.

 

[GoofyIsAsGoofyDoes]

Do NOT get her banned!!

Not to worry...
The Mods would come after me anyway (remember... double standard).

And if they ignore all of us...
Your TR just gets all the more entertaining.

See! Loose me… more entertaining…
Win, win!

Who?

Who?
What were we talking abou...

Oh look!
Elllllllllmoooooooo...

A dimly lit bar, smooth jazz emanating from the piano in the corner.

And she whispers... oh, so softly, enchantingly, in his ear...

And pkondz replied, breathlessly…
“What colour?”

But hey, you still beat me. At least you sat at the same table with her.

Ahhhh, but this was a dream.
Your achievement was live and in Technicolor…

With witnesses…

 

[orangecats2]

When I write the ding dang thing!
(I think I'm going to start saying ding dang
to everything. I like it.)
Ding dang stupid being sick!

I do have the photos ready to go,
just not sure when I'm going to get a chance to write.
Well hurry up!


Of course I was. I have that affect on women.
I'm sure it went something.... like this:

A dimly lit bar, smooth jazz emanating from the piano in the corner.
Carrie sits at the bar.

And she whispers... oh, so softly, enchantingly, in his ear...

"Paint my house."

Wow! You haven't thought about that at all.
My house doesn't need painted. I'd ask you to buy me DVC.
Do you know how tall I'd be in five inch heels?
---About six inches taller than you!!!

 

[pkondz]

Gah! And everyone wondered why they couldn't understand anything you said for the next 3 days.

I don't remember that, so I'm going to assume it was okay... eventually.

But hey, you still beat me. At least you sat at the same table with her.

Not to worry...
The Mods would come after me anyway (remember... double standard).

And if they ignore all of us...
Your TR just gets all the more entertaining.

See! Loose me… more entertaining…
Win, win!

Nice knowing you! Take care!

Who?
What were we talking abou...

Oh look!
Elllllllllmoooooooo...

Sorry... what where we talking about?
(Can't. Stop. Staring.)

And pkondz replied, breathlessly…
“What colour?”

Ahhhh, but this was a dream.
Your achievement was live and in Technicolor…

With witnesses…

A dream?
I can assure you sir, that I did indeed sit at the same table with Carrie
(and her husband... still, counts.)

Wow! You haven't thought about that at all.

My house doesn't need painted. I'd ask you to buy me DVC.

I think that would cost a bit more than the paint.

Do you know how tall I'd be in five inch heels?
---About six inches taller than you!!!

I'd always look up to you.

 

[DISNEYMOON10121991]

Budget. Is that one of the worst words in the English language?

I try not to say it out loud, it just makes me sad. But I will have to really start to take a hard look at it since we can make ADR next month!!

Nah... It's all self-preservation.
If I don't clean up, she'd smack me.

So that's what it takes! So if I give hubby a good smack everything will get done? Nah...knowing my luck, it only works in Canada!

Of course I was. I have that affect on women.
I'm sure it went something.... like this:

Really?? So you claim this happens often?
Cold Shower dude! Do you write or read paperback romance novels on the side?

And she whispers... oh, so softly, enchantingly, in his ear...

"Post dang update"

.

 

[orangecats2]

A dream?
I can assure you sir, that I did indeed sit at the same table with Carrie
(and her husband... still, counts.)

We even hugged and sat next to each other!
Also there was my step son, your daughter and her friend.
Was too crowded to be romantic.

I think that would cost a bit more than the paint.

How about a two week trip to Disney staying deluxe?

I'd always look up to you.

You already do!

 

[pkondz]

I try not to say it out loud, it just makes me sad. But I will have to really start to take a hard look at it since we can make ADR next month!!

Getting clooooooser!

So that's what it takes! So if I give hubby a good smack everything will get done? Nah...knowing my luck, it only works in Canada!

I hesitate to recommend it,
just in case your DH smacks you back.
But if you're sure he won't,
then by all means... go right ahead.

Really?? So you claim this happens often?

Rejection? Oh, only all the time... every time.

Cold Shower dude!

Thanks for the offer,
but wouldn't we be more comfortable if the water was warm?

Do you write or read paperback romance novels on the side?

Having never read one... nor do I intend to,
I was trying to emulate one.

How'd I do?

"Post dang update"

Now that's funny!

 

[pkondz]

We even hugged and sat next to each other!
Also there was my step son, your daughter and her friend.
Was too crowded to be romantic.

We should've gotten rid of the lot.

How about a two week trip to Disney staying deluxe?

Hey! Let me think about that....


No.

You already do!

And I always will.


Unless men's platform shoes suddenly come back in style.
<shudder>
