May 10, 2008 Ship of Thieves! Stealing the Magic..AGAIN!!! Panama Canal FL to CA!!! Part 3

Yes, it could be Peter Pan instead of the Lost Boys. The Lost Boys would be funny, but Peter might be more in keeping with the theme.

Ack...Surly's bowing out...no Peter Pan shirt for him...He'll still have a drink with you, John. If only for putting up with all this estrogen all year...

Yes, but the Lost Boys might be better since most of the "beer boys" won't have any idea what they are up for (as they don't post here or read here often). And, you didn't comment on the shoes....what type of shoes do you think you need? Maybe some Uggs? Might be too hot for the cruise though.

Yeah, I'll wear some really short shorts, some Uggs, and a beer boy t-shirt to the deck sailaway party, and they can put the gangplank back for everyone who will then abandon ship.

Night all.

Good thing I wasn't drinking anything at that moment or I would have joined the ranks of those spitting drinks out on their computers!
That sounds perfect, although I don't think will abandon ship, maybe you will start a new trend!

Night John!

I think we should get a picture taken of our Champagne Girls too. That would be a good one to frame and put up behind the bar

Behind your bar of behind the Magic bar

Off to work....and......the gym again. That will make 5 times in a week. If I continue this pace, I'll be shopping for new clothes before I know it! Not sure where this round of motivation came from, but I'll take it! I guess I need to buy a scale now, but I'll wait a couple weeks (at least) if I can stand the anticipation. I can't wait to see if there's any result.....but I do remember that I usually gain first since muscle weighs more than fat. So I probably won't weigh myself until I see my clothes getting loose.

Way to go Holly! Keep up the good work at the gym.

Let me know, it was just a empty colouring page and I filled her in, so I can make any changes you all would like.

Opps!

You did a great job, that is awesome!

Well, duh, I am lucky I didn´t have to do the pink think because I would never have thought about looking for an empty colouring page, I was thinking that it must be hard to put the pink instead of the green, etc. I am definetly way over tired.

Alejandro.....you spelled it right! He's history. Long story short, I found out he has a WIFE back home in Mexico! Lots of people called her and told her about us, so he called me and fessed up. I was pretty crushed because I got hooked by his killer smile really fast, but I'm OK with it now because I know that just means there's somebody better out there somewhere, just waiting for me to find him.

I am sorry about Alejandro. Stupid man, hurting both you and his wife.

OK folks....I hate to drop a bomb and run (no, I didn't fart....I meant my Alejandro woes), but I'm headed to bed so I can be refreshed and brilliant for work in the morning. Goodnight all!

Most of the hair burning at our church takes place on Good Friday, when women with long hair try to take their candles with them as they stoop to go beneath the "Epitaphio".

If you need any help with your Greek, I can help. I do not remember the exact translation I can post it later in the week when my son brings home my Easter Liturgy book. He is going to church nightly in Youngstown for Holy Week until Friday with a girl one year his junior, from his High School, who is also Greek, and in the same medical program as him. She is a super nice and smart girl - and Greek to boot! Don't know if this is "dating" and I dare not ask as it will peeve him.

I know Christos Anesti means Christ has risen...but that's all I know. I would so LOVE it if you could do a translation, if you don't mind.

What a great connection for your son...medical program and greek! OK don't ask if they're dating, just ask if she's coming to dinner on Sunday.

Are you cooking the official lamb? Mom said she'll do the lamb, but nothing else...she's still recovering. So I'm dying the red eggs and DH is making the potatoes and veggies and spinach pie. Oh, mom did the Easter bread tonight too, but her adult DGD helped her with it.

Next year, If Easter is later in April and I can keep the bread from spoiling, I'll bring some on the ship in May, especially for you and Lisa and anyone else who wants to taste. Mom isn't making baklava this year, it's too much for her.

How is your dad? Is he recovering well and will he be at dinner with you on Sunday?

 

[pjpoohbear]

Great PJ. Where do you find all the clip arts to do all of this stuff? It is great. I wasn't part of the list at the very beginning...is the Ship of Thieves logo something you did as well?

I had logos in the running, but alas my designs did not win the hearts of the public, lol.

I did the Champagne girls logo.

I did a search for disney halloween wallpaper to find that background.

Night all.

Now this I've got to see...and get the picture....DH will be happy to join the "boys" but he doesn't drink a lot of beer...more like a margarita type of guy. He will on occasion, Superbowl Sunday, drink some Coronas with lime that I make him pick up for us coz that's my favorite beer and I'm the football fan. So he'll be happy to join you.

That's so sweet Marilyn, I love hearing "how we met" love stories. I want to hear more, ok everybody, how did you meet?

Dh and I met when we were about 7 years old. We used to go to the same school and to the same tennis club, our moms even carpooled for some time (definetly my mom had no idea of how bad a driver my MIL is)

Oh I will be so sad but so happy when that happens. I am just starting, the little one will start soccer this fall. My DD's are 6 years apart so it will be some time before I get to be an empty nester.

Was it hard for the oldest when the youngest was born? Dd is 4.5 and we are still considering having another baby, but the age gap is somewhat of a deterrent.

Hey mouse surplus has the Disney Cruise Line comforters on sale. Anyone want a comforter that God knows what happened to I doubt these are NWIT. Where is black light Barb when you need her?

EEEEWWWWWW

I met my DH at a party at my brother's house when I was 18. He had just got back from a one year tour with his "rock band" out on Canada's East Coast. He was seated , with many friends around him, telling of all his great tales while away I was drawn to him, and listened along with everyone else. I met up with him a couple more times while at my brother's, then he asked me out for a first date for my 19th birthday We were married when I was 21 (he was 24) and had a wonderful daughter and son together. We were married for 23 wonderful years and I never grew tired of listening to his stories We would constantly over the years meet up with people that knew my DH but that I didn't know and it would be so interesting to listen to them discuss days gone by...it seemed to be a lifelong journey getting to know my DH and I loved him more each day. I lost my dear husband to cancer 5 yrs ago
Even at his memorial I had a few strangers introduce themselves to me and say they had known my DH in school and how they remembered him because he was so kind, never a bad word about anyone, and for the wonderful stories he told We miss him terribly, but his love lives on with us forever.
Kathe

Kathe,

I am so sorry for your loss. At the same time that is so comforting to know that so many cared for him. My father was very similar and people still share stories with me about him. He was the rock of our family and has been greatly missed. My dad will have been gone 14 years in September and I still get great stories from his friends with smiles and happiness. As you know it helps a little with the pain when others share the happy times. I wish you and your family all the happiness in the future.

to both of you!

Where is Noel? Did she get the sick bug too???

WOW...that's a record breaker, just 7 years old when you and DH met...when did you know it was going to be more than just friends? Where and when did it get romantic? Inquiring Minds want to know...

Don't let that worry you...they'll probably be closer because of it, less competition. Do what you want to do and the rest will fall into place.



EEEEWWWWWW


to both of you!

It rocked her little world. She was fine though. She is actually a big help. The hardest part was starting over with a new baby but it has been great also.

GREAT ONE .... PJ...now I wonder who will volunteer to be the mascot and do peter in blue??? HA HA HA HA HA HA HA !!! !!! !!! !!! And will they wear baseball caps with blue peters on it??? HA HA HA !!! And everyone dress in blue for your picture above the bar in a blue frame. !!! HA HA HA HA HA !!! !!! !!!

 

[EllaEnchanted]

....And the mascots name could be the "Boy Belchers" ....HA HA HA HA HA !!! !!! !!! !!!


I'm just having so much fun with myself here...it's a laugh riot!!! HA HA HA

 

[mexican-mouseketeers]

Poor Drew! No fun! At Tyler's 4 year checkup, he wouldn't have needed any immunizations, but it was noticed that a HIB shot had been forgotten along the way. His doc told me that since this would be the first time he'd be old enough to remember the shot, bringing him back the following year would be a nightmare for the 4 he'd need then, so she gave me the option to do all of them at once that day. We did...and I'm glad we did because when I took him to the doc when he had strep not too long ago, he didn't want to go because he thought he'd need shots! But I assured him that he won't need any for a while.

My DD is the complete opposite. We went to the dr a couple of weeks before her 4th birthday and he was checking the immunizations chart and said that she was due for a shot, but that since she wasn´t prepared for it before hand, it could wait until next visit, but Estrella really surprised him by asking him to give the shot that day instead of waiting. Definetly she doesn´t take after either dh or me on this.

I just have it saved under my favorites list so all I have to do is click and it takes me to the last page I was on. Love it!

How do you do it? It always takes me either to the current date that I am checking, or I have to browse the page numbers to find the last one I read.

OMG, that is fabulous!

I wonder if we could do something with pink paper tiaras from a party store and clear ink-jet stickers. I have a really clear .png file of the DCL logo, or we could do something with the pink tink, hmmmm........

After cleaning all day, I am shopping on the internet. How cut is this for my bedroom at the beach!! Pottery Barn, of course

I love it!

Hi all - Love the champagne girls and DCL tiaras...makes me want to break into singing 'I feel pretty, oh so pretty...'

Been really busy trying to get stuff ready for the Med repo cruise. Finally got our room assignments! Booked a 12 GTY and the upgrade fairy put us in a Cat 9!!! We are really happy. Room is supposed to be a little noisy, so I went and bought industrial strength ear plugs (good for working on heavy machinery or shooting) so I figure we will sleep through anything. I will see if I can find any more of those tiaras...I think we are going to need LOTS!!!!

You are soooooo lucky about going on the Med repo, and also about the upgrade!

Hi Julie! I'm so glad you're back! Missed you! Your wait on the phone sounds awful, but aren't you glad you have the DIS to keep you occupied while you wait?!

I finally caught up with myself! Definetly the only way to wait for so long in line is becasue the DIS are so interesting.

We now have our tickets for september

 

[been2marceline]

Karen I worked on yours, can't get it under 50k, sorry. I will try again on the weekend.

Pj,

Thanks so muchf for giving it a try!

I will work on it as well!!

Karen

 

[fourmcds]

PJ, Once again....great job! John.....what do you think (guess we have to wait to hear his answer since he is dreaming of DCL at the moment!)

Congrats on catching up! Are you going to WDW in September? Are you still going this month? Sounds great...2 trips to keep you occupied until May 08. By the way, we booked our hotel for next year in Zihuatenejo...March 08 So excited to go back there, this time for 10 days!!!

Our retired school principal went to Oaxaca for 6 months last year for immerision/missonary work. Ever since it's been in my minds eye and here it comes again. Are things better there now? the violence was disturbing to hear about.

so glad to see you too, I missed your voice

Things are still bad, but not as bad as they were 6 months ago.

Well, if it's there for the taking...

Well done you

Off to bed. Remember it's April Fool's Day tomorrow! Don't let those kids get the better of you.

Am I the only naive or dumb one who fell got Gmail´s april fool´s day joke? I was thinking that those in the US were so lucky because probably gmail would not ship international

Just had the most brilliant idea.....



I've just seen on the DCL site that the Eastbound transatlantic repo cruise on May 12th is selling cat 12 staterooms for $999!!!!!!!! That's for 14 nights too!

Now then, we cruise with DCL on the 5th May for 7 days and are due to fly home on the 12th May..........can you see where this is leading?......

I think it would be a MUCH better idea, rather than fly home, for us to get back on board and bring that lovely ship across the ocean to Europe....don't you??

Mark has just said 'NO'.....but he has to go to work....and I don't!!!!!


Well....what do you guys reckon? (or do you think this would lead to divorce?)

I would definetly do it, it is still a gift, even if you lose the airfare.

Well, I stole it from Haley Mills! I think it was from The Parent Trap. I know I've been using it since about 5th grade, so the timing would be right. I was (I guess I still am) a HUGH Haley Mills fan...as many of the pre-teen girls of my generation were.

It is from "The Trouble with Angels". I love that movie, and I just watched it between monday and tuesday while I was walking in the elliptical trainer. DD was like crazy at the movie, and she doesn´t even understand half of it (no Spanish option on the DVD).
