FINALLY COMPLETE! 10/3/2010- But Why is the Rum Gone? Disneyween 2007

Hey Crystal! I like the white one. It screams "pirate wench" more - I LIKE!!! I'm jealous after looking at these pics (if you know what I mean).

I feel ya about paying someone to make a really good-looking costume. I want to be Pocahontas BAD, but I don't want to be "sexy Pocahontas" or some Pocahontas knockoff - I want to be DISNEY'S Pocahontas. I almost went to see someone about making a costume but I decided to go to HHN for another nite instead.

Great work on the costumes! IT'S GETTIN' CLOSE! I hope I run into you there!!!!

You are my hero. Pocahontas is the best!
 
Well, a kind of sad update about the job I interviewed for today-- I'm a little bit bummed.... because I'm going to havbe to get up really early on Monday if I'm going to make it in for training by 8am!!! (Yay!!!)

I told them about my trip, and they said that since I let them know, it will be fine! I'm so happy! I'll be working for a resort company doing reservations, and I'll be making way more than I was making at my old hotel job. So not only am I going to Disney, I'll actually still be able to afford to eat when I get home! ;)

I stopped at Home Depot today for LGMH's, and found some really cute gel window clings in Halloween shapes for just $2, so I got those to decorate my room windows with. I'll post pics later!

And a question for the people who recommended Body Glide- what aisle would it be in? I looked at both Target & Wal-Mart, and neither place had heard of it. (Apparently, they aren't dis-ers!)

I'm glad I don't start work until Monday- it gives me a few ays to do most of the rest of my trip preparation, since I won't have much time soon! I'll try to update later tonight with pics of my new stuff, and info!

Okay, you have no idea how hard I laughed when I saw this! Not because you used duct tape, but because the one I'm making was bunching up last night, and I decided I needed to reinforce the inside... so I used duct tape! (And part of a wheat thins box!) Great minds think alike!
 
Congrats on the job! :banana:

I just saw body glide at Sports Authority last night. I think any sporting goods store will have it and know what you're talking about. I would imagine "body glide" sounds a little strange to most people!

I may have missed this, but has Kelly told you whether she is coming with you?

Oh, and I am very happy that you'll be able to eat while at Disney!

I know what you mean about the sexy costumes! Most of the pirate ones I found are either tummy-bearing shirts, or (I kid you not!) made by Playboy! I want to be a pretty pirate, not one that... well... I can't think of a DIS-friendly metaphor! :rotfl:

If I had time, I'd whip you up a Pocahontas! (I even have the perfect shoes!)

If you want to meet up sometime at the World, just let me know!
 
Yay new job!

There's, um, another form of Body Glide..might explain the looks. :rolleyes1
I got my body glide through Drugstore.com, but I've seen it at the registers at Dick's.
 
That's awesome !! I'm really happy for you :)


Thanks! And gheez, you're fast! 2 minutes between post and reply- well done! :thumbsup2 You get a cookie!

Oooh, maybe I should have looked in the sports section! I was looking in the health/pharmacy/stuff section! And yep, I got some funny looks at the name "body glide"- it does sound like something that should be found in..ahem.. a different aisle!

Kelly is *still* up in the air! She did text me the other day to ask if she had to buy park tickets ahead of time, or if she could get them there, which I take as a good sign!
 
Gheez louise, you people are fast repliers! ;)


Yay new job!

Ah hah! I wonder where the poor Target people thought I was expecting to get blisters? :rotfl2: I'm just not going to comment on getting body glide at Dick's. There are too many possible jokes!

Yay for the new job!!!!!

Thanks!!!
 
Yay new job! Congrats!
I've purchased Body Glide at 2 different sporting goods store. Last time I even got a fancy kind with sunblock in it. Ooooooooh.
Now you'll be able to enjoy the next 5 days off without worrying about work. Hooray!
 
Congrats on the Job!!! I bet its a huge weight off your shoulders and you will enjoy your vacation even more! Rock on!
 
CONGRATULATIONS!!! :banana: :cool1: :banana: :cool1:

Now you can really focus on packing and finishing up your costume. Yayayaya!

congrats on the new job!!! :yay:

and in case no one has answered your question about the body glide, i got mine at dick's sporting goods. i've never seen it at a walmart or tarjay. so i'd look at a large department store if i were you. if i remember correctly it was right at $10, but that little stick will last you half a lifetime. i've used it on two trips now and i haven't even made a dent!
 
Hey Crystal - congrats on the job.

I am not sure whre you are with where you are staying now (you make my head spin! In a good way!) - but I just read somewhere here on the Dis about this Orbitz special (and I contemplated for about 10 minutes taking a mini trip by myself because it was such a good deal lol) -

Based on your dates, you guys could do 10/28 - 11/2 at Pop for $212.46 (including taxes and fees!). So, split 2 ways - it is about $100 each for 5 nights. That is cheap. I know you don't love the values, but man, for $20 a night who cares. Lol I don't know, just wanted to give you a heads up on a possible savings deal on your room.

Orbitz - put in the dates, choose the $59 rate, and then enter the promo code sunandski150 ($150 off a 5 day stay). There also is a 3 day promo - sunandski75 ($75 off the 3 day stay).

I read it somewhere here on the Dis and just tried it and it worked. So, your mileage may vary, but maybe it can get Kelli to go!
