DIS Dads DDC XVII - Leap year edition

[AirGoofy]

The end of April can't come soon enough. I want to go to Florida.

Slow it down. I've got a Hilton Head trip before then. Let's speed up to March 31 and then really slow it down.

Did you see the announcement they made about 45 min ago? Start time is scheduled for 7pm. They think the weather will clear by then. Hope so.

They're going to try at 7 tonight...we'll see.

Not the best way to start the NASCAR season.

Ouch. Hope things have improved.

Thanks. Her neck is feeling a lot better and she is mobile today. She thinks she may have hurt it doing yoga.

Mondays. Mondays used to be filled with boring meetings, conference calls and other time-killers.

I much prefer this type of Monday to the old type of Monday.

And now you have plenty of Dis posting time!

So we are under two weeks until our trip and I'm hesitant about our Garden Grove ressie for our epcot day. I'm concerned that we will likely be in the world showcase that afternoon and not sure if it is too far of a trek over to the GG for dinner? Was thinking maybe via napoli or mexico for dinner? Or just roll with the GG ressie?

haha nothing like second guessing yourself at the last minute

Oh, I plan it out, book it, and second guess myself all the time. Just fun in the planning.

Garden Grove was probably the best character dinner buffet we ate at, but it was not on the DP when we ate there. Their crab legs were WAY WAY better than the ones offered at Cape May Beach Club dinner. With GG, you can least exit through the International Gateway at WS. It is a 10 to 15 minute walk., maybe? You can also boat over there. We have never tried Mexico, but agree that Napoli is excellent, expecially when not on DP and you can split some pizzas. I'm not sure GG has characters there everyday. So, if you want seafood and a good dinner buffet with characters, then GG may be the way to go. If you're wanting pizza or Italian and a less walk, then go with Napoli.

Hey. I had a dentist appointment this morning too. I hope yours went as good as mine. :

Yes, mine went well, other than the whole soreness after the cleaning. No cavities - yeah! Better yet, no more costly dental procedures - yeah!

Jealous.

I need a vacation worse than you do apparently... but I get to go to DC for 3 days in a couple of weeks. I might have a couple of hours of free time at some point.

We're going to Gatlinburg with DW's family for 3 days at the end of March. So I guess I'm at least getting away from the grind a little bit this next month.

Enjoy it while you can Andy. April will bring about an entirely new dynamic in your household, and that free time... yeah, it'll be gone for a good while.

 

[stopher1]

Brownies sound good. Make sure you make enough to share.

Ok. I will.

 

[stopher1]

Well played.

True, but at the same time, I was inviting it all along. It was just too quiet, so I figured I had to do something to bring some of you back into posting mode.

I'm not even ready to think about that yet...

I mean I'm ready for her to be here, but I'm not ready to have a newborn in the house again when I'm ready to go to bed.

 

[stopher1]

And now you have plenty of Dis posting time!

From time to time, I do, yes.

 

[AirGoofy]

Well, after the first Sunday in Lent (I've been late to post it here), I have managed to refrain from alcohol and also included daily exercise. I struggle with both, especially the exercise part. But, it is my effort this season.

Mondays.

My Mondays used to be filled with boring meetings, conference calls and other time-killers.

This morning I went to the post office. And had a good phone conversation with a client. And watched my DD get ready to head out to her gymnastics class. And called the dentist to reschedule our kids' appointment.

And I'm sitting here watching birds scamper about in the backyard, as I work on SEO stuff for my website.

I much prefer this type of Monday to the old type of Monday.

That sounds so much better than...well, any Monday here. Or any weekday here, really.

Some times I wish my boss would go on vacation. It's been too long since he did that. I mean, really, Aulani was a whole month ago now...

No alcohol??? You aren't planning on watching that race tonight, are you?

Having 1 seems so easy now in retrospect. Having 2 in the house... more difficult. Having 3... let's just say I'm glad now that there was such an age gap between #1 and #3 - sure we were outnumbered, but we had an automatic helper built in to the equation. I can only imagine having 4 or more. Wow.

I'm sure you guys will do great! It'll be an adjustment, and yeah, you'll lose some sleep for a while, but what fun she'll be for you. Your own little to dote over.

 

[afwdwfan]

Time to go pick up some tax papers and grab some lunch.

DC? Is that a business trip? When will you be in town?

 

[stopher1]

Oh boy! Now it's time to get really wild & crazy... it's time to walk out to the mailbox and get whatever the mail carrier brought our way. Wow. Contain your excitement on my behalf.

I've got #3 coming this spring....I'll let you know how it works out.

Don't forget to put on pants.

Morning guys...rainy and dreary out there this morning

God hates Nascar.

Morning gents!

Hope all are well! What'd I miss?

Seems very unfair to be back at work today, but fortunately, I'm heading back to Disney on Friday!

Sorry about the video feed. Needed some video Viagra. I'll try again from the Boardwalk on Friday. Maybe it will work better

Was it wired or wireless? MouseWorld Radio posted on Facebook about how bad the wireless was last week.

Can you take me with you? I could sure use a Disney break.

Umm, Chris, you might want to review the adventures of our resident Black Cat before inviting him along

Of course we will be in March by then so it might be OK.

How long is your driveway? It's been like 15 minutes?

 

[DisDadDoc]

Or the raccoons.

Wireless. No wired option at AKL Kidani...

Some business came up. Had to take a call.

 

[stopher1]

I've got #3 coming this spring....I'll let you know how it works out.

Yes you do. Can't wait to hear all about it.

Don't forget to put on pants.

Remember, I had to go out into the world earlier this morning - so they were already on. Now days I don't have to go out anywhere, there's no guarantee...
