Girls Only Disneyland Trip - Old Thread

[toocherie]

So, I'm confused now.

1. Are all of the ladies only Hojo people automatically being changed to the Ent. Rate or do we have to call to confirm it?

2. Is everyone who wants to take the VIP in a spot? Because I'm on the tour and wouldn't mind giving up my spot to someone who hadn't taken it before if they wanted to do it. (I had previously Pm's Audra to give her Mom my spot but since she's not going at all to the VIP tour I doubt her Mom would go--LOL)

3. Hope everyone's having a good day--mine is INSANE!!

Here you go Molly! A spot for you!


Cheryl, I like to lean towards the side of caution. If you really really want the ent rate, then I would call. Lorealle isn't working today, and who knows how many rooms they have at that rate, and how many have already been taken. If you don't really mind the risk of waiting or you really don't have time to call, then I *think* Lorealle is going to automatically adjust everyone. I hope I didn't make your confusion worse....it's clear as mud to me!!

 

[bumbershoot]

Hi Cheryl! I think it's either/or. Call and confirm if you don't trust them to do it, or trust they'll do it and don't call. You're a lawyer...I have a feeling you'll be going for the "call and confirm" choice.

Totally off topic.

Does anyone still have those picture rails that were all the rage a few years ago? Where it's like a shallow shelf, or deep moulding, and you put the pictures on that, instead of hanging them on your wall directly?

If you have that, does it work? And where do you get it?


I have all my pictures lined up on the floor of the hallway, and I'm not not wanting to deal with hanging them. And I keep thinking of those picture rails, but I don't know if they "work" to keep the pix up.

Dangit, am I going to have to sell plasma for this trip?

Here is what happens in my head....

I want to do the Segway tour MORE than the VIP.

I can do the Segway tour in the future.

I will likely never be able to do the VIP tour with family, as a family, it could really only be done with a group like this.

Therefore it makes more sense to do the VIP tour.

But regardless of all that, I can't get payment to anyone for this until probably the time of the trip, and with so many people who want to do these tours AND have the ready cash, I have no interest in making anyone wait for payment.


My poor brain.

********
Add to that the fact that hubby is sick still and changing my whole day around by his presence, and I'm going feeling a bit woozy-headed.

Hey ladies!!

I am just chillaxing at work getting some homework done.

I love the quiet!

Well--not to make your poor brain any worse but--I've already paid for my spot on the VIP Tour so I would be happy to wait and we can settle up both the VIP Tour and the room at the same time. But, no pressure or anything!

Do you mean a single shelf, or a shelf that goes all the way down the wall like a chair rail? I have a couple of shelfs from Target that I use for my photos

 

[toocherie]

ok--just to make sure I understand this--only the 8th is the night available for the Ent. Rate--correct? and yes, I just called and confirmed it.

Molly--I have an Ent. Card too and also added your name to the res. Although I think I will be there before you anyway!

I mean like a chair rail, but I have many pictures so it could be several smaller shallow shelves coming out from the wall...I love having a hallway filled with pictures, I just hate putting them up!

Yep you'll be there before me. And after me.

 

[daisy_77]

Molly, what are your dates?

 

[QueenDoOver]

You know you wanna I snapped up one spot on the VIP tour - when else am I EVER going to get a chance to do that?? It will be a blast!


Dawn - I have no idea where I'm going to find some scrumptious, fabulous chocolate cake, but I am really good at "research" I will hunt down some for sure.

Stage Coach Cafe (I think that's what it is called?) I saw Beth's picture and it is on my list. It is gigantic and looks delicous!

I would be tempted to give it to you Bumbershoot, but since I am doing you a favor, I won't feel bad for taking it hahahahahahah!

I really wish I had a Disney friend I want to go this week and for some reason I dont want to go by myself this time. But it's tough since everyone will be at work and I can't wait for the weekend since I have other stuff to do then UGH!

Will you be my Disney Friend????????????

I could be your Disney Friend, if you buy me a ticket from Seattle

You are so nice to offer up your spot Cheryl. But we want you too! Do you think the guide would notice if we snuck one more in. I mean when looking at 10 ladies, what's one more?? I think it would be fun if we all wore a theme shirt, like maybe a Mickey shirt, in red or something? Doesn't everyone have one of those??

I have some of those. And I like them. Pictures do stay up and are straight as long as you have hung the rail straight and there is no earthquake nor any little darling red headed boys throwing balls in the hallway.

Okay, I was working from home today, and really enjoying the vibes. I mean, do a little work, do a chore, do the dis...
Then hubby came home with his bad back, icing it, watching the TV, asking me what I'm doing, etc....

Really changed things up, and not necessarily for the better!

Well, I don't have a confirmation from Fairycat yet, but if she decides she does not want to go, and/or you decide you would like to take Cheryl's very nice offer, then I am okay with you paying me for the tour when you arrive. I am the one at risk of being stuck with the bill, and if you say your gonna pay, I know you will. (It's a lot easier to feel at risk for $75 than for $750)
OH, and anyhow, Cheryly already paid me, so you would pay her back if you take her spot, so I guess it would be her $75 Come on Molly, sell some stuff! I agree, this is the only way I will ever get the chance to do the VIP tour.
I seriously wanted to go on the Segway tour as well and even sent a PM to accept the new spots, before I realized my plane left too early. Dang it!

 

[LittleBlackRaincloud]

Molly! Do it! I want you to come with us!

(but I do understand having to draw the line somewhere...)

...as long as it's over there, by the wall, next to the cat's litterbox...

I'd be a Disney friend too, with such a ticket. And someone to watch DS.

Where'd you get the rails? Throwing balls, ooh, big no-no. I don't have many of those, but balls in the house are not allowed to be thrown! However he does have quite the thundering run down the hall, but if he hasn't knocked over the pictures just propped up against the wall, I think he'll be safe with them up further. He might miss them, though!

You know what hubby did? OK so he gets some sort of stock grants that vest every so often. But he has no "plan documents", and all the info is given on their intranet and via email from HR. So I have all the access to the account online with the company that holds the grants, but I have NO idea what we're supposed to do, or what we can do, or WHEN we can do whatever we can do, with the grants that have vested. I keep asking these questions, and he's called them (we need something notarized to give them permission to talk to me if he's not here) but never asks the right questions. So I'm in this state of confusion about it and have been there for months since some vested and they automatically sold some of the stocks to pay the taxes on the group that vested. Today I realized "hey, you're home, can you call them and hand the phone over?" and instead of just DOING that, he started trying to be "the man who has all the answers". But it was just the same answers, based on the same incomplete information, and it just soured my mood! So then he got sad b/c I was in a bad mood, and then I had no interest in talking to the company even when he finally offered, and finally he went to sleep like he should have been in the first place.

Harumph!

Augh...you're tempting me, too! You and Cheryl, darn you! Lemme check out the schedule and i'll get back to you two.

 

[cheshiregirl]

I'm definitely not trying to drive Cheryl out... but come and play with us Molly! VIP is going to be SOOOOO much fun and for me at least, is truly going to be a once in a lifetime experience!!!!

I am all for Mickey shirts on Friday, but mine is light blue. I just bought it from disneyshopping.com for $4.99. And when I just double checked, they are still available AND are now only $3.99 and available in all sizes still. http://disneyshopping.go.com/disney...parel-Classic-Mickey-Mouse-Ringer-Tee-for-Her
Anyone want to match me? My chesticles are pretty big (as is the rest of me) and the XXL is more than comfortable. In fact, I ordered a second one in an XL with hopes of getting smaller in the coming months!

 

[bumbershoot]

Augh. Flight leaves Seattle at 6am. (let's not talk about how painful that's going to be for me)

Arrives in LAX at 8:35am.


What are the chances I could be there in disneyland, luggage put away somewhere, and ready to tour by 10am? Not high, I think.

Well, I see you already called to confirm it, lol, and that's fine. I did too. But I do have an email that I saved from Lorealle where she promised me that if the ET rate became available for all or part of our trip, we'd get the lower rate. Just an FYI in case this comes up again. Which I hope it does!! I like saving money as much as the next guy, er gal.

 

[fairycat]

I wish I could fly you guys out

I am so excited about the VIP tour! I need to create a whole new list of questions for our leader this time, since JD got to so many of them last time. Though I did stump him twice heheeh!

I hate to admit I don't own a single Mickey shirt. But I do have a red Evil Queen shirt, a purple Alice shirt, many Cheshire cat shirts and a few other off character shirts

Woo Hoo happy dance! Now I have to come play!

 

[mommaU4]

I am in homework hell again tonight. Talk to ya later.

 

[toocherie]

Oh woman you're killing me. Let me think, OK?




Yep you'll be there before me. And after me.

No problemo--let me know re: the VIP Tour. I'll hold my spot--just in case.

And I'll definitely be there before you--or Michelle and Stacerita will kill me! (Pizza Party and all . . . sorry you're going to miss that). Not sure how much I'm staying after you--still reserving judgment on whether I'm staying through Sunday night or will be leaving someday Sunday and going back to reality to prepare for Monday morning. (Oh--and do you want me to grab a LGMH at the party for your username?)

Stage Coach Cafe (I think that's what it is called?) I saw Beth's picture and it is on my list. It is gigantic and looks delicous!

Actually you can get the same cake in the Golden Horseshoe too--someone bought it last year and a bunch of us couldn't finish it!

I could be your Disney Friend, if you buy me a ticket from Seattle

It would be cheaper for me to be your Disney friend. (No plane ticket.) But unfortunately I have to work!

You are so nice to offer up your spot Cheryl. But we want you too! Do you think the guide would notice if we snuck one more in. I mean when looking at 10 ladies, what's one more?? I think it would be fun if we all wore a theme shirt, like maybe a Mickey shirt, in red or something? Doesn't everyone have one of those??

I don't know if the Guide would allow that--but I have the red Mickey shirt (well actually--it's a bunch of the characters--but it's red!

I seriously wanted to go on the Segway tour as well and even sent a PM to accept the new spots, before I realized my plane left too early. Dang it!

You could always change your flight!
