Ok, so, went to go see Star Trek with Yoni & my Dad last night (yes, that is the kind of geek that I am) and it seems like I missed a LOT! The movie was fantastic by the way.
I'm going to do this without quotes to make sure I don't miss anything:
V -- thanks for the info on the trolley. It sounds like a good idea. I love the idea of giving the kids something to do. We have brunch at Palo at 11 so figured to walk our brunch off in KW but now thinking I may ride my brunch off!
JorDan -- I am so so excited about the baby! I knew you were trying and so glad it happened so fast for you! I ditto what Alison said, take Dramamine with you BUT get the less-drowsy version. You will be tired your first trimester (I used to sneak home from work and nap at lunch time) and the last thing you want is a pill to make you even more tired. I didn't know there was a less drowsy version when I cruised pregnant with Kai and I slept the whole time. We don't want you sleeping the cruise away!!!! I can't wait to see you and give you a big hug in person -- WOO HOO!
Barbara is right -- the minor inconvenience of the pregnancy is minor. The blessings are worth it all. You will meet my cruise baby (Kai) and see that even though I slept through my cruise, I don't regret a single second. You may not get to drink or dive BUT you will be surrounded by friends and we will have a BLAST!
Kathy, Carole -- I don't know if I can add you guys to my reservation. I think that would be the right way to go but not sure how that works. When I get there I am going straight to Rockin' Bar D(I think that is right) and will see if I can up my tea reservation to 4 to add you 2. Anyone else want to join in? If you aren't getting on board around the same time (we plan to be at the port @10:15) then go make a reservation and if I have too many, will cancel a few by then. We will be up in the Mickey pool after we get on the ship.
Val -- we certainly miss you when you are gone! Too much excitement to share!!! I can always use pointers on makeup and think, hmmmm, if we buy something from you, can you write off part of your trip????
I got you down for the Monday tequila at 2. The other one I had you guys down for was the Martini tasting at 3. Let me know if you are still planning to go (and then kareoke after!
)
Ok, so my hair has calmed down. It isn't that blonde, just kind of freaked me at first. Now, I think my blonde streaks will just bring out the DIVA in me.
Sue -- I can barely sleep too. If I wake up for ANY reason, my head starts spinning with things to do. I am hoping to get a lot done this weekend so I can get some rest next week!
Jane -- I hope you have a fabulous time and selfishly am so grateful that you will bring your laptop with you and stay in touch. Let us know if you need anything and HAVE fun!
Carole -- if you are leaving this weekend, will you still have internet access?
Everafter1 -- thanks for the update on the weather in Orlando. It is that hot here in Austin now too -- unusually warm. Is it like the summer where we can expect a rain storm or 2 during the day? Not sure if I should pack rain panchos?
Mary -- it is GREAT to have a name to put on the DIS login! Now if I can find a way to remember it....
V -- you had better not have such bad dreams. We want you on that boat nice safe and sound. Do we need to all call you at various times on Saturday morning to make sure you are awake?
Lynsey -- can't imagine not having internet right now! That would be terrifying!
I'll mail you the copy of the reservations later today so if anyone else has a preference for time.
Everyone -- If you told me you are interested in a tasting but didn't decide on a time, will just list you as a possible participant.
Yup, that is me, your trusty alcohol coordinator. The sad thing is I am a bit out of practice so may embaress myself (by falling asleep after 2 drinks) if I am not careful!
Ok, so yesterday I finished Sabrina's and my Pirate costumes!
I also printed most of my magnets so just have to laminate them and put magnets on the back. Today want to finish FE gifts and do some last minute shopping so I can enjoy tomorrow a bit more.
I hope you all have a FABULOUS Saturday!!!!
Weren't there others leaving on Sat also? 
I was a toe head when I was a kid, and then it started turning darker in my early 20's. I still consider myself a blonde on my driver's license, even though all but the ends are really too dark to be called blonde anymore! 
Oh, and seeing the picture that Belinda posted reminds me to suggest having pregnancy photos taken when you're REALLY far along! I did with both of mine and think they're fantastic! I still can't believe I was THAT BIG with both boys! Yikes!! 
I end up getting up for an hour or so. This week will probably be worse.
I should have limited access but will be pretty busy and must go to town to get on unless I can pirate 
a signal from one of the neighbors up the hill again... We are pretty much out in the sticks. Just ask my kids, they are not too fond 
of the place, to say the least. My darling 
Amanda calls nearly every day on her way home from work though so she can pass anything along if need be. Will miss all the action but we'll all be together pretty soon... 
I think the photo is locked up in her old laptop that had a little accident and is waiting to be loaded on the new one. Maybe she can get it on before we all leave! 
I hope Sonya and Tony are having great fun... Can't wait to hear about their adventures and all the food they have had this time!
or shortly thereafter and will be at the 3:OO meet to hand out those glowing DIS arm bands! Our best to everyone, see you soon!
