Hi gang! I got home last night (unfortunately!) - it's cold and we have snow here. I'm really glad I was able to meet up with the group at the Rose and Crown - it's good to know that everyone is just as nice in person as they are online. The shocking news was that Linda was a Disney virgin - I honestly didn't think that was possible! Penny, Linda, Traci, Brenda, Viki and Gwen were all there ... didn't get to meet up with OrlandoMike though. And I can confirm that Viki was drinking a dirty martini.

Did anyone notice that they sell 'our' pin? I'm not a pin collector but it was raining all day on Thursday & in an attempt to stay dry I looked around the pin store at Downtown Disney and there it was. I was tempted to buy it but I knew it would just sit in a drawer someplace.

Welcome to the new folks. I don't have any story to tell about meeting my partner since I'm solo ... could tell about my ex since we still get along but logistics keep us apart .. but that may be for another day. In the meantime I'm alone and cold in Buffalo, dreaming of the one that is out there for me. Well, I came home to walls and new cabinets in the kitchen so now I'm off to paint.

Hi Icebrat

True North - I'm a Survivor junkie too. Can't wait for tonight! I also want to see Broke Back Mountain, but I don't think it opens here in GA until maybe next weekend?

Hey Sue - Linda will be thrilled to be a "virgin" again at the age of 44! It's been a long time for her

I wonder when Viki and Gwen are getting home?

Hey all, we're home, we're home! Just got in late last night. What a wonderful trip, weakened only by our inability to meet up with OrlandoMike ever or the rest of the crew as much as we would have liked.

We have tons and tons of photos on our new 1 GB memory card and I'll write trip reports, complete with entertainment and dining reviews, but it's going to take a bit because I'm coming home to heavy teaching responsibilities.

Anyway, I wanted to do a quick check in and now I'm off to the gym, because you know after 10 days at the World I sure do need it!!!

 

[OrlandoMike]

Sorry I missed you guys! EPCOT was a mess on Saturday, and I had to work late, so we missed each other on that planned meet.

Thursday, I had a very good friend come into town last minute and we ended up going to dinner.

Glad to hear you had a great time, looking forward to photos and a TR!

Hi gang. thought I"d post this for your critique, LOL. A good friend of ours is a cast member and she made arrangements for us to meet some of the LIon King cast as a neat annniversary surprise on our most recent trip. I thought the pic came out so cool!

FYI, I'm on the left and Joe is on the right.

 

[joanjett1976]

Great pic Rick!!!

I ended up not going to see Narnia, got sidetracked at the Caban friends and family sale Brokeback Mountain is only starting on the 23rd in Montreal... I think I am much more interested in Capote...

SURVIVOR: my Stephanie did not win
Danni did look very good at the reunion...

Have a good week everyone!

Mike - that is hysterical! I'm sitting in my office listening to a jazz Christmas cd and the track it's on is Ertha Kitt singing "Santa Baby".

I am a bit late with this, but Hello IceBrat! It is lovely to have you on the thread.

Rick- I love that picture! What an awesome opportunity. I think it would be awesome to have one of those in my Disney picture collection.

There are WAY to many movies I want to see Rent, Narnia, Brokeback Mountian, Harry Potter, The Producers....I don't think I'll ever get the chance to see them all.

I just saw Rent over the weekend. I really enjoyed it! Harry Potter was great too, but they cut out A LOT of book 4 - I'm seriously addicted to the books and I have the DVD's of all the movies so far.

 

[icebrat001]

Welcome Heather
Great pic Rick!

Doesn't it suck that steph didn't win, that was so sad


Chris, I love Harry Potter, I have all the books, I have all the audiobooks on my Ipod and i have the movies, GOF in the movies was great, but I agree, a lot was cut out.

I saw Rent in theatre here in the city (San Francisco) a few years ago (4) it was great, we hope to see the movie before we go on the cruise, we have high expectations.

Ut oh, guest came in, better help them.

Bye

WELCOME HEATHER!

Well, It's 44 here, so needless to say I didnt wantder out to see Ertha! I'm a Florida boy and 44 is too cold to stand by a lake, even to see a Diva!

Maybe I'll drag the other half to MGM tomorrow night and get some pics for everyone.

Any requests?

 

[True North]

Hey Heather! Welcome!

Malaysia, I think you beat me! I have all the books and movies, but I don't have the audiobooks. I have even thought about getting one, (and by one, I clearly mean all of them) becuase it would be something light and easy for when driving. I think it is something though that only I would enjoy, and any long trips tend to be family events. When do you listen to them?

And I hate to say it after reading the comments here, but, ummm..... I was chearing for Danni. I guess at least one person on this thread was happy with the outcome.

I listen to them at my jobs, I teach preschool and I work as a desk clerk at a hotel. The hotel job is really slow, 2 hours of work, 6 hours of nothing, so I play the audiobooks at work, when I am cruising, on the airplane, when SO and I go shopping (both have ipods) just plug them in and shop, at the hair salon. I would listen in the car, but both of my jobs are within 3 minutes of my house, so it isn't worth it.

My boss is a harry potter freak, she can recite the books word for word. She has sleeping issues and listens to harry potter every single night.

Even if you are with someone that doesn't know a lot about harry potter, the audiobooks are great because the voices change, it is so awesome.

Well, I'm off work in 15 minutes, need to start cleaning the desk.

Well I must say this was one of the first times where I was completely satisfied with the final three and found them all very deserving. But I had a soft spot for Stephanie.

True North, I would looove to see a pic of you and your lil' family!

16 Days to go until WDW

Mike, what is the weather like right now?

Is it just me or did Mike just say "drag"?

And welcome to the board Heather!
