DIS Dads DDC XXIX: We’re Over 750 Dads, With A Disney Problem!

[mm1971]

Dave I tried finding your daughter without help,then I got her schedule from you and still could not find her. I think she is hiding from us.

And who could blame her.

 

[AirGoofy]

Have a safe weekend guys. I will be laboring all weekend so that you can be off. Yeah I am that kind of guy to take one for the team!

Thanks. If I need you in a medical emergency, that 6 hour drive is nothing.

Norm - didn't you get the memo about the new cover sheet on the TPS reports?

I'm keeping my red stapler.

Norm ain't got no time for that

I should be used to it by now.

Dave, you and I do math the same way... Scott doesn't count!

Guess I'll have to find another roommate for DDC2....

The other night we went to a Trenton Thunder baseball game with tickets I won at one of the gift auctions, our seats were great, 3rd row directly at 3rd base, the ony thing that was a downer during the game was it kept starting to drizzle just enough that you wanted to move to cover, this happened twice but turned out to be the highlights of the game, the 1st time we hit the gift shop, my son wanted a hat with the team Mascot (Boomer) on it, we no sooner left the store and were just standing there and a door opened about 10ft away and Boomer walked out, he noticed my son's hat took off his head and signed it,

It cleared up until the end of the 7th then it showered again so after a few minutes we moved up to cover, it only lasted about 10 mins but the seats were all wet so we hung out at the main level near our seats at the rail, during the 8th a ball was coming right at me so I decide I'm going to go for it, with no mit I attempt to catch it and surprisingly I did, then immediately dropped it as I said a few choice words ( it hurt so BAD), my arms gave out from the impact I thought my hands were broke, my wife picked up the ball as I stand there in shock

To make matters worse a couple of guys close by came up to me to give me a high five and said that was a crazy catch that's what mits are for, that has to hurt Well all I have to say is I got my son a ball used in the game, and weather there might have been a easier way, at the end of the day I did what I had to and made my son's day and that's what counts

One more thing that happened about 10 mins later, Boomer was walking by, and my son went up to him and asked if he could sign his ball, that was the icing on the cake

Wed we left beginning of the 10th, it was 5-5, I don't even know who won or how many innings it went into, next time we go my wife wants to try the crab fries.

We have SP passes all way to the end of Christmas, do you have a pass or tickets, maybe we can get together

That was funny when I got the text. Lol she was in the hub last night. Started at 4:30. Called me around nine it was her break. She was waiting for tink to land. She likes being on break she can see wishes easier from behind Main Street then she can from the cart.

Lol. I made it easy for him. It was her day off and she was with Tammy and I.

Morning Guys

Heading out in a couple of hours for Declan's provincial semi-final game. Hopefully that will lead into tomorrow's final and another over night stay. At least this time it will be at my parents and not another hotel.

Hope you all have a great Saturday on the final long weekend of the summer.

Happy International Bacon Day. Yep, it's so big that this holiday is worldwide. Hey Canada- don't say we never did anything for you!

 

[disdadIL]

And it's Star Wars night at the Kane County Cougars game ( farm team for the Cubs). Costumes and characters. Plus DD decided to be Princess Leia for Halloween. Weekend starts right. Hope all you dads have a great start and that good news follows for test results, family illnesses, and disney trips.

Well, we have an event billed as the "International BBQ Festival". I think it draws people from Ohio. But, that may just speak to our top not education system.

Never caught a fly ball at a baseball game. That is really cool. The only thing is that would be my baseball to keep.

 

[that's nice]

True story… when we were up there for orientation, the vice-chancellor was discussing the things that are most likely to cause freshman to have huge problems adjusting to campus life. Here’s how we addressed the number one downfall of new students:

“Now I’m talking to all you new freshman that still have a guy or a girl back at home still in high school…

Break… up… with theeeeem!

Please! Pull out you cell phone right now… I won’t mind… I’ll let you do it even while I’m talking… call them right now and break-uuuuup… If it was meant to be they’ll be there when you get back. Every poet out there will tell you that if you love someone you’ve got to set them free. Not to mention that the next four years, hopefully only four years, will be one of the very few times in your entire lives that you will be constantly surrounded by attractive, eligible and available people that are all you own age. After this meeting people just keeps getting harder. And most importantly, when you’re in a place like that…

Why on Earth would you bring a sandwich to a Smörgåsbord?!!”​

The entire room was pretty much on the floor gasping for breath in tearful laughter.

That is awesome!

We got the exact same speech at DD's orientation about breaking up with any significant others including the sandwich and smorgasbord line. DD has no attachments at home at the serious BF thing ended before HS graduation. I am getting a bit tired of hearing about the "scoping" out of guys on campus and who has dibs on which guy during the first two weeks of school

oh, errr, thanks for ruining the speech for me.
