DIS Divas Trip! (old thread, see first post for link to new one)

[grumpyvet]

Now THAT is a committee I could sign up for.



Okay: So far I think we have for the Pub Crawl

1) Stacie F. Leader
2) AmyOkraSue Attendee
3) Cheryl Attendee and legal counsel if needed
4) Capri Attendee
5) Katie Attendee and visual hallucination evaluator
I am thinking this is shaping up rather nicely.

No need for a designated driver since we will be walking/skipping/staggering between venues. Win win win.

Good? I should have already added in Jen G (or chicken Jen as I ended up referring to her to keep her straight fromthe other Jen ) since I am thinking she will be up for it. What say you, Jennifer?

Got it this time. Thanks, Roomie! Wait, no, apparently I still don't. I give up. Wait... it did work! Good grief this technology is totally beyond me.

Hurrah!!!

Please note: I have not even attempted anything so fancy dancy.

Although, I do believe that AmyOkraSue would look spectacular in orange.

 

[kelmac284]

Hey I am def down for a pub crawl. Sounds good sign me up!!

And hey I can wear orange eventhough with my bottled red hair I might look like the great pumpkin but hey what the hell I'm down with it. I will wear pretty much anything. And if it is horrible on me then it becomes a bed for my dog later on

Karisa I'm with you on the tech stuff. I usually can figure stuff out but for some reason on this site not so much. But hey we both got the siggie so I think we need to thank Andrea. She rocks!!

And Capri I have to agree on the taupe. Again I will wear whatever but when I think Taupe I think the people of walmart and the taupe tights that made the gal look naked. Hey Amy you could do that and then you wouldn't have to worry about any pants.

 

[Stacerita]

Please add me to the list...

Of course you are on the list. I hear you make a strong drink that can make one fall on her lips.

It's every shade of this color. I am not a fan after living in Arizona for a couple of years.

So bascially its the color of an ace bandage?

Hurrah!!!

Please note: I have not even attempted anything so fancy dancy.

Although, I do believe that AmyOkraSue would look spectacular in orange.

AmyOkraSue also looks good in lights above the pole on the main stage. Just sayin.

Check it out. Disneyland Pub crawl, sweeping the nation.

Oh, looky there, another vote for ---you guessed it ORANGE!!

Genius. Taupe leggings, alternative to pants.

AmyOkraSue also looks good in lights above the pole on the main stage. Just sayin.

Okra is next on the pole. Could I have my lights in orange?



So, I am going to have trouble keeping up with the Pub Crawl sign up sheet..maybe we can be listed on the front page. Oh, I am all aquiver with the excitement of it all.

Or, maybe I should just assume all 9 million of the Divas will be partaking.

 

[disney-super-mom]

Of course you are on the list. I hear you make a strong drink that can make one fall on her lips. It could have multiple meanings depending on my mood.



So bascially its the color of an ace bandage? I'm pretty sure that description hits the taupe nail on the head.



AmyOkraSue also looks good in lights above the pole on the main stage. Just sayin. And did she put on a show?

Yes, I annoyingly quoted within your quote. Heehee.

Of course your name can be in orange lights. And yep, I can hear it now...."Next, on the main stage of the champagne room, is Okra!!!!" Then the music breaks out into 'pour some sugar on me' or 'cherry pie' or something by white snake.

Do you think a tiara would be too much?

 

[Stacerita]

Do you think a tiara would be too much?

Nope. Just make sure it doesn't clash with your pasties and tassels.

 

[Stacerita]

Yes, I annoyingly quoted within your quote. Heehee.

At least you put it in a color that I can see.

I think Mel's post about the shirt colors makes the most sense of any of the ideas - even 'last years' idea. This way we get to wear our shirts for more than one year, and the oldest gets rotated out, and each year we get a beautiful new one. Newbies can just get the correct color shirt for each day without having to worry about spending extra money for a screen printed shirt. The order is set, no need to have anymore shirt discussions, except about the new shirt. It seems so easy, which is a bonus when we have so many people. And so many people posted and said they loved Mel's idea.
On the last day, the 'wear your favorite Disney shirt' didn't help me identify Divas, especially those that I only met briefly. I vote for sticking with our past shirts in a set order. Like Mel suggested.

Thank you for the "Welcomes" and it looks like a GREAT group I have started looking at all the various pics/FAQs already and just wanted to know if we could leave now?

I'm mid-50's, married almost 25 yrs (April 14), live in Modesto, CA and started here on the DIS when VMK began. DH will ONLY go to DLR during Halloween because of his love of Jack Skellington, although I did drag him this past New Years Day so I could see the Christmas Castle/decorations. I love EVERYTHING about Disney which comes in handy with my 3 grand kids.

I did go down for a VMK meet back in 2006 and this past October met with some more very LOVELY ladies I am disabled, so will use a scooter and of course have a GAC card, but the limit is 6 people ... hehehe

Finally, as you can tell by my name here, Tigger is my guy Growing up and having surgery every year, some times twice a year, I took on the attitude of having to bounce right on through life ... and I always will


Lyn

Hello Lyn! Welcome to the group! I love Halloween at DL too. I also have a cat named Tigger, and boy is he a bouncy little cat! LOL And I'm not that far from you either!

Yay Andrea I LOVE it. Thank you SOOO much!!! And hey I even figured out how to do it!!

I agree I love ALL the shirts mel has designed. The first tink one we ordered from Zazzle and it was ok but NOTHING like Mel's lovely shirts. I don't think that white one would even fit me anymore as I have probably gained 60 lbs since that trip LOL. Heck maybe one day if I can ever get off my butt I will be able to fit in it again.

And the year with the pirate ones me and my lack of ability couldn't figure out the iron on so mom and I just made our own black jackets with a pirate princess decal and a diva one. That doesn't fit anymore either LOL.

I have worn the pink AND purple shirts around and I am sure I will wear the blue. I love them and always get compliments.

Maybe, if you come start dancing with me you'll be off your butt into that shirt again. LOL Either way, I thought you were beautiful.

That's what makes it awesome. I don't drink, so I can stand back and watch all the tipsy ladies trying to undo their jumpsuits before they pee their pants. I need some form of entertainment.




Why pick just one?? We can layer like my daughter does:

Be nice, that's my baby girl in that photo. She rocks the neon colors like no one else can.

Well she is beautiful, but I think Jade could give her a run for her money in the neon department. LOL Our little fashionistas! I love them!

Now THAT is a committee I could sign up for.



Okay: So far I think we have for the Pub Crawl

1) Stacie F. Leader
2) AmyOkraSue Attendee
3) Cheryl Attendee and legal counsel if needed
4) Capri Attendee

I am thinking this is shaping up rather nicely.

No need for a designated driver since we will be walking/skipping/staggering between venues. Win win win.

So the pub crawl will be around DCA/DTD/hotels area? LOL I could sign up for that!

I think, just for the pub crawl, everyone who goes should wear orange shirts with taupe tights/leggings....

Just to note, I will wear whatever shirts we pick out, I'm not picky. I bought the pink one to wear this year and would love to wear it again next year if it happens, if not I'll just wear it when I need a dose of happy. Pink isn't my favorite color but I associate happy things with the shirt so that makes it easy to wear it. I've loved all the designs Melody has done, she's so talented!! Which reminds me, I need to go send a PM to get the Pirate design.

 

[LisaCat]

I love the idea of getting a copy of the prior shirts and then using an iron-on transfer! My only problem is I don't know how to do it but ..... I do have an expert who only lives about 5 miles from me!!!

LOL! They are pretty easy.

 

[LisaCat]

Or we could keep it simple and all get I'm celebrating Buttons says Dis Diva's 2014

Ooooooo! I think we should all do this anyway! How fun!

 

[LisaCat]

Oh oh oh....along with my collection of orange shirts, rest assured, I do indeed plan to pack pants!!!!

Orange pants? Oh! Black pants would really make the "Halloween in February" statement. LOL!

 

[LisaCat]

Amy, no offense taken.
I was just trying to explain myself.

For newbies who are interested, I think with someone's help, (LOL) that we could send you the pink DisDivaland image and the Carsland one. But the image has to opposite in order for the words to come out right. No clue on how to do that.

My printer reverses the design automatically when I select "t shirt transfer paper" as the medium.

 

[lulubelle]

Any committee that involves alcoholic beverages I need to be on.
Pencil me in as the VP. I can get personal Diva referrals/references if needed.

Orange? I could do orange. I agree with no taupe.

 

[LisaCat]

I will wear whatever Mel makes...Orange makes my pale skin look paler, but I will walk around the parks looking like I belong in the Haunted Mansion if Mel makes it!

I can't wear the lanyards all day because of my neck, but they were SOOO cute!

Ditto on the shirt. Although I joined Beth in the "lame-o" group that didn't wear lime green. LOL

I wore my nametag in a lanyard pouch all weekend, but I wear a beaded lanyard cuz the fabric ones make me break out around the back of my neck which is most unpleasant. LOL

 

[LisaCat]

Before I lose the links - this is why I said that going with a scoop or V neck will limit our colors:

http://www.sanmar.com/sanmar-servlets/CatalogSearch?id=6598863&prodimage=&swatch=Cactus Green&top=Y

Pretty slim pickins.

Fruit of the Loom has a new style that's slightly scooped with a decent selection of colors: http://www.sanmar.com/sanmar-servlets/CatalogSearch?id=8654984&prodimage=&top=Y&swatch=Purple

 

[LisaCat]

She has the beautiful skin tone to rock the neon colors. Some of us would look more like an escapee from the NBC version of Haunted Mansion... ROFL!

 

[LisaCat]

I wonder how many dead tree people we'll see?

(whispers) "I see dead (tree) people"...

I'm all for a pub crawl as long as it includes the Cove Bar. LOL
