Penguins always dress formal, don't they?

Yes, with tails.

Well, today I looked at some of the mail from DCL and it stated to have personal info submitted by 75 day mark and I panicked because I had yet to fill out the forms online...so I called CC agent and she said she could plug in our passports and DH passport expired? so I thought it said 08 April 09 which turned out to be April 8, 2009 what a relief. That was scary...I'm so glad I did this today. So I've filled everything out. I still need to rent cars FL/CA and hotel in FL and tix. It will be here before we know it! So if anyone hasn't filled out the forms yet...please do ...just to make sure everything is a go

scary!

That is a great quote and so true.

Too much emotion and not enough energy drinks!

Cars

A bit of a turn up for the books today.

When I got home last night there was a voice mail from the Smart dealer. They had an orphan available for me.

I had just been in this past Saturday and put myself on the secondary waiting list. I do have a normal reservation, but was facing a 1 year wait for a car. The dealer secondary list is for "orphans" cars ordered, but the person changes their mind.

I phoned today. They had a car come in yesterday, and the person who ordered it decided that they did not want i, they wanted a convertible instead.

Amazing thing is that it is the color I reserved and the options I reserved (not that a Smart Car has many options). It did have the upgraded sound system which I did not want and does not have the security package that I did want.

So, I pick it up my orphan this coming Saturday.

I'm feeling a bit stressed out because I was really preparing to be waiting either a few months or so for an orphan, or a year for the car I reserved.

Still not quite sure if I'm excited or in shock.

WOW that is great news though! Ok we will be waiting for all the pics of you guys taking the smart to great photo op areas!

Does Paul have an alter ego? Wilson better not yet.

oh, don't I wish about Paul. I'm afraid Wilson isn't going to need one, he is a race car driver at age 8.

This thursday...won't be a problem for me, taylor won't be there. She's with her dad. Well I think she's with her dad...he didn't show last time, so we'll see. Just tell me what time so I can coordinate with him to drop her off in time.

Those are nice snacks, I have a pan of brownies, the face of a mickey cookie and a carmel apple here for my snacks....

Yummy snacks! Brownies are my favorite.

Well we'll introduce them and then go have some drinks. You can be nice to him, right?

Robin isn't nice.

Ahh I love the old Hollywood glamour, top hats and canes all around!
Can you sing and dance too? That would really make my evening to see this.

That depends on his voice I suppose.

Our friends' luggage did not arrive before they left today on a 15 night cruise. I just took them to the Port of L.A.

Woody

Ughh that is so sad. I hope everything they packed arrives for them soon. That just puts a bad spin on the whole vacation to be missing so many things you counted on having.

Ethan won't even ride his bike because he fell off once.

I think Wilson might be Paul's alter ego, that's just sad...

The luggage did not arrive, and British Airways cannot locate it.

Our friends bought what they could yesterday and this morning, but it doesn't come close to replacing what they originally packed.

Woody

Still sending good vibes that all is found and returned soon. I hope they have a wonderful trip inspite of their loss.

Robin isn't nice.

I don't know if anyone has ever told you this but neither is Nan!

I may have spoken too soon, Paul reminded me that Wilson invited me to this dinner, so I need to see if he is okay with me bringing a friend. I'll talk to him tomorrow and let ya know the plan.

Only if he doesn't answer the phone to save money and complain about my feet,
