You're not wearing any underwear during DAP???? You'll be popular!

Sayhello

No, Commando touring....I'll be wearing my magical underwear to the party!

I think I just busted a gut at this. Going commando for GKTW...a new fundraiser?



Congrats on the new little one coming along!

Woo! I will! Wow, Nikki knows my Dis Name. I feel oddly excited about that!

For some of us, the fact that "Nikki knows my Dis Name" is not exactly a positive thing.

I second that!

Ok, you all are seriously cracking me up today. This is going to be one heck of a fun weekend.

Halloweenqueen - I'm also staying at Pop, so I'll be stalking you for a prize and so we can compare notes on our Lillians.

Thanks for the congrats on the pregnancy! I had debated saying anything since I'm still in the first trimester and I had a miscarriage last year around 10 weeks, but I'm thinking positive thoughts and so far this one seems like it's decided to stick around. I hope it likes Butterbeer!

I need advice from anyone who knows Universal!

The crazy planner in me is starting to have a major panic attack because I know nothing about Universal. Here's our story: We're taking a 6:30am flight on Saturday morning from NY. I've arranged for a car service to take us to Hard Rock. Drop off stuff and head to Universal Studios. We'll take advantage of FOTL access to go on whatever we can (my son is too short for Rip Ride Rocket), eat lunch somewhere in the park (suggestions?) and head back no later than 3:30-ish for a nap. (I'm getting up at 4:30am!).
Then I need to figure out dinner. My 7 year old and me. He's relatively adventurous and well-behaved. Do we eat at the hotel? Head over to City Walk? Any recommendations? He's eaten in some "adult" restaurants in NY and this will be special mommy time and I'm used to NY prices....
Then we head to DISapalooza!!!
Sunday we'll do IOA until we get tired of it or until it's time to fly home. Lunch suggestions?
Good plan?

Thank you for listening!

I am going to the Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party on Sunday, December 11 too.

We'll be going Friday night.

I got back to my Pop Century Resort and a chilly, drizzling, but wonderful first night at MK to watch the MSEP and Wishes and my box from the DIS with my credentials was sitting on my table. Thanks for mailing my credentials to my room.

But I woke up this morning with a frog voice and a terrible running nose. Maybe the air conditioner was on. I know that my clothes were wet from Monday night at the park.

Maybe that is the reason.

I had to leave Epcot early tonight during the Candlelight Processional because I just felt I had better get back to my resort room and take something for my not feeling good.

Please send me good wishes to feel better in the morning. I really don't want to feel sick at WDW. And I really want to go to see WWoHP.

 

[KristaTX]

Feel better soon, Ray. Take a couple of days to just relax and rest up if need be. I just said a prayer for you.

We will arrive a week from today and be at the Swan. By the way - Mom's not coming this trip. It's me and my husband this time.

Can't wait to see you again .

Ray, I'm in the exact same boat as you. My ENT guy today said it's an upper respiratory thing that's running RAMPANT in SE Alabama right now - like at unheard-of numbers of people with it. He prescribed antibiotics, nasal spray, decongestant stuff and sleepy cough syrup so I can sleep and not cough myself awake all the time. Should be on the mend in a few days - hope you are as well - no fun to be sick at Disney!!

 

[Iggipolka]

My wife, daughter and I have all been sick for the past two weeks with a nasty cold & cough. It's that time of year.
We also ended up getting an inhailer, antibiotics and my wife got some codein cough syrup & we are finally feeling better. This infection really zaps your energy.

Rest up Ray & if you continue to feel bad, you might want to consider a visit to a doctor while you are there.

 

[*NikkiBell*]

I've been fighting off a cold myself and have been feeling more congested over the past two days than before. I'm hoping it is a fluke thing and won't damper plans for next week. Pixie dust to all of the sick DISers!

 

[stenogoddess]

Arugh. I'm so torn about going to the Christmas Party. I'm really debating about going or not because I leave early Monday morning. It just sounds like so much fun though. Especially since so many Dis'ers are going to be there! Decisions, Decisions.

Go if you can. We have such a good time and it really helps get us in the Christmas mood!

Please send me good wishes to feel better in the morning. I really don't want to feel sick at WDW. And I really want to go to see WWoHP.

Feel better soon! They have Doc in the Boxes in Florida Maybe hit one just to be on the safe side. I'm sure they can tell you where the one is nearest your hotel at customer service.

Ray, I'm glad you're already at WDW and enjoying the parks, but it's no fun when you don't feel well. I hope you'll feel better very soon. I'll look forward to seeing you next week!

Thank you so much, Krista. I knew that I could count on you for some prayers. I do feel a little better today. I need to get a lot of fluids in myself today. I did bring some tylenol and other medicine with me. It seems like the older I get the more I seem to catch somehing and I never had allergies and rarely caught a cold or flu.

I wish your mom was there.

I was at DVC members Merry Mixer yesterday and really enjoyed it. Many people came up to me to say hello that post on the DISboards. I was wearing my DIS button with my name on it that Mr. Hayes made me.

Hi, Debbie. Thank you so much for the info. I thought that it was just me catching some kind of cold or flu every year at WDW.

I am going to probably call my physician today if this persists if only for coughing and sleeping and give him a headsup incase I show other signs that require antibiotics like for a sinus bacterial infection.

Not much antibiotics can do for a virus cold.

I use a mask CPAP at night, and it is almost impossible to use it with constant coughing.

Thanks for the information. I hope you and your family feel better. I haven't seen a lot of folks at WDW coughing yet like last year, but I have only been here two days so far.

Thanks, I appreciate it. I have checked with my medical insurance by phone to see which ones they cover price wise.

Hi, Nancy. Thank you so much for the well wishes and I can't wait to see you again, Nancy.

Thank you everyone. Being by myself here sometime is not so much fun when I am in my Pop Century room coughing and sneezing and using extra tissues for my nose. I don't which is worse.

Well, the worse is not going to the parks. I will see the Epcot's Candlelight processional another night.
