shhh - don't give up my secret!!!

Certainly you didn't expect us to think you KNEW all that?! We have a lot of faith in you, Kate, but that would be more stalkerish than Amy's manilla folders.....

 

[tmfranlk]

C'mon, you know you have a crush on a celebrity! At least I picked someone who still looks good. Those of you who liked Leif Garrret....ewwww!

Amy

I was just thinking that they other day! DH got me The Outsiders for Christmas and Leif shows up in the special features. Wow, not so hot anymore.

I can't take credit for starting it, but you can count on me to give you the link.

Great story about Ben!

I got Merlin's autograph a few years ago...I think he felt sorry for the pathetic 31-year-old pregnant woman, holding out her autograph book.

Amy

Now THAT's funny! I felt bad for the other kids. Again ... he only gave his autograph to the child that was chosen.

No, I just got so tied up with Christmas and work that I didn't fully unpack from the Disney trip until I packed for Christmas. I'll get it out this weekend an mail it from work on Tuesday. I'll check the store in town to see what type they were. I don't think they were Wilton, but may have been heavy duty. I'll let you know.

That would be super. I'm in no rush. I know about delays in mailing stuff (sorry Deb!). I would LOVE to hear about what you find -- so take your time.

THANK YOU to everyone! I just came back from grocery shopping and was actually able to quickly catch up!!! LOL

Got my mini Trip Report done (with pictures)

Sounds like it was a super fun trip!
How great of you to spread the pixie dust.

Almost 4 years ago I started having problems with smells. At first I thought I was going crazy. Then I started getting migraines. It seems that for some people, they get migraines from some odors. So, Steffy and I would suffer together when shopping or going out to eat. Sneezing, coughing and just carrying on a lot. (thank goodness for protection) Going thru the smoking section at a restaurant we would hold our breath and practically run. She would wait outside a candle shop because it just really gets to her and if I smelled something, I would just tell her not to go there..

I can so relate to this....I am going to have to go home early from work today because my volunteer who runs the RISO machine(like a printer but uses barrels of ink and masters) to do the weekly bulletins, called in sick. I can handle the machine for a bit, but doing 550 bulletins and the innards...the smell got to me!! Add to that the other machines that I had to use that make noise and I have a lovely migraine!!

Here's pixie dust (the non smelly kind) for Steffy!!

We got married on April Fool's Day. How appropriate is that for me?

I'm right there with you; DH proposed on April Fool's Day! But it was still romantic; we were on Main Street, USA and it was during the fireworks...

I'm so glad the visit with your "monster-in-law" went well. Your kids are sweet and I'll bet they made the ALF residents' day.

OK ... one other highlight (I may even post an actual trip report one day ....)

OK ... I told you guys I had won a trip for 4 .. and then my neighbor and her family backed out, right? OK, well there are only 3 of us. One of the items I won were four 5 day Magic Your Way with Park Hopper tickets.

Now, I had this extra ticket and what to do with it??????

I had it with me all the time, but no sense giving it to someone in the park -- they already bought their tix. One night, I was headed over to Pop Century (buying Mr Potato Head!). I was following this couple with a little girl and I over heard part of their conversation. They were discussing buying park tickets and how many days etc.

I got up the nerve and jumped in and asked them how long they were planning to buy for. They were contemplating between 4 or 5 days. I told them that I knew this seems totally crazy, but I had a 5 day PH ticket for them. The wife looked at me like I head 4 heads. The guy asked me how much I wanted for it. I said no - I'm giving it to you. He replies - selling it? LOL

We were not getting very far!

I explained that I had won a big prize and I had an extra 5 day PH ticket which HAD to be used before 12/24/2005. I am NOT selling it -- I am giving it to you if you wanted it. They were still skeptical.

I pointed out that all the adult tickets had a biometric scan. *IF* the ticket had been used, you will not get into the park and will be right where you are before meeting me. But, I assured them, no one had used the ticket ... and they were welcome to it at no charge.

I still think they thought I had been sniffing something.

I had just left DH back at the hotel room (and of course we had just had yet another argument!) .... but I sure felt SO much better after that. I really *do* hope they ad no problems using it.

I swear, I was floating on air for the rest of the night.

That's great. I'm sure they were thrilled but so surprised that someone would share so generously. WTG! Fun spreading PD, isn't it?!~

How fun. We went on our Disneymoon in 1995. It was great.

Some people are just so sceptical - we had spare FPs for BTR and I spotted another disneymooning couple (wearing the ears) wished them congratulations and offered them the FPs - they looked at me like I was mad

My huge crush was Christopher Reeve. When he broke his neck in the riding accident, my DH was working for the company that makes the spinal implants. I felt like we really helped him! I was so sad when he finally died.

I just loved Christopher Reeve in Somewhere In Time with Jayne Seymor

I can't stay on today - it is my and Skunka's anniversary. We are taking Matt to see Narnia and then our friends will watch him while we head out to dinner. See you all later tonight or tomorrow!!

Denise - good luck with the MIL. I'm fortunate not to have to deal with things like that.

Ain't IMDB a great site?!?!?

What does this stand for? I am too busy with trip reports and uploading photos to look it up.
