NYE Western Cruise 2008 - New Thread

[teacherbell]

I'm 41 years old and I think there may be something wrong with me.

I've been thinking there's a little something wrong with you for a few years honey.

Artie 41, "Please, please, can we go to Disney for Christmas!"
Owen 8, "Ok, Daddy. Stop begging."
Yeah, nothing wrong there?

 

[Aisling]

OMG it's Artman and Claudia!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[teacherbell]

Give me a D...give me and I....

I'm so ready for that outfit and a set of pompoms

Whoohooooo, I know what Santa's bringing Claudia this year.

 

[Aisling]

Whoohooooo, I know what Santa's bringing Claudia this year.

You mean you two don't have a "cheerleader outfit"? How long have you been married?

 

[artman]

Hey Aisling, did you sober up? Or did you go all day?

 

[teacherbell]

Ok, at this point I am censoring Artie and cutting off his computer privledges for the evening...

Plus, were off to look through our closet

 

[Aisling]

Hey Aisling, did you sober up? Or did you go all day?

No, not all day LOL! I kicked the girls out and took a nap. Then I cooked, shopped, picked up Jesse, fed my family, Jesse's doing HW, and now I'm going to the gym! (I missed my morning session, my bad!)

Does this look correct?
Ashore and Onboard times subject to change based on actual port arrival and departure times.
* $99 rates are available for third and fourth Guests traveling with two full fare Guests in the same stateroom. Rates valid for stateroom categories 4 through 12. Government taxes and fees, in addition to excursions, are not included. See Disney Cruise Line® Terms and Conditions for applicable details. Subject to availability. Rates in U.S. dollars.

$99 for 3rd and 4th guests? I'm playing with the idea of booking me and Jesse in an inside for the Eastbound Transatlantic for $1000 each, but if it's only $99 for Chad...hmmm

Happy Birthday to Mr. Tig!

I've got a Dummy Date booked (fool me once) and I'm thinking of moving it to TA Eastern too. Lots of my repo friends are chatting about it too. It would be so fun to get you all together with me in the middle

I can't take the kids out of school for it, too much school, well maybe Wilson could go???? He can miss school and not even notice it. Perhaps Paul would want to come over to Barcelona at the end of the TA. We love Barcelona

Were you only there Friday night? We should have made plans to meet up ...

Brenda, I need to do a better job of keeping up with this thread. I didn't realize you were at DL

I swear I've been scattered lately. In fact we almost missed the party... I was debating between two different nights when I bought the tickets and I could have sworn I decided on Oct. 30 (glad I didn't since that's senior night here and we wouldn't have been able to go anyway) Luckily I double checked the date on our tickets (late Thursday night) and we made it!

We did just go for the party though. Of course it helps that we're less than 30 minutes away... barring traffic craziness; it took us an hour to get to the parks on Friday.

So if anyone is hitting DL/DCA before the cruise, let me know. I'm always looking for an excuse to head up that way.


We can hook you up with cheer gear. The football players certainly looked stunning in last years' uniforms at the pep rally last week. How are your legs Artman?

 

[Aisling]

Long! I think he said he's 6'6"!


Nan, are we nutz?? Trying to find 2 nickles to rub together and still planning trips!
I'm trying to work the TA east cruise into a trip to see my brother and his family who'll be living in England by then. I just don't know. I even entertained the thought of going back to work to pay for all my expensive vacations, but it'll move us up back into a tax bracket that actually does more harm than good. Not worth it.

I'll definitely be going to England, though. I'm planning for next Christmas/New Years if I don't make it this summer. Of course I'm really planning to do both!

I have a dummy date booked and deposit allready paid for, so it really isn't money out of pocket. And PLEASE tell me that in 18 months things will be better. If not, then the cruise will be the least of my worries...

Long and hairy, best viewed in long pants. Anyway I find short skirts make me look hippy.

How about Johnny Depp get $61 million to do Pirates 4. I think the guy is fantastic and they simply can't make the film without him, but......

He will earn more for a few months work than all of us combined will earn in our lifetime (not scientifically calculated). All of this for acting like a drunk/somewhat gay pirate, seems wrong somehow.

I'm thinking of a better use of the money, perhaps Capt'n Jack's Savings and Loan.

Bring on the flames ladies, I can take it.

 

[artman]

Here's a question of the day. How would you spend $61000000 dollars.

I would take 25000 of my closest friends on a Disney Cruise.

Good question!

I would do that AND rent out Disney World for a Private party or two

and probably still have enough left to open my own Savings & Loan Co.

Wow that's a huge amount of money. I hope he donates a lot of it to charity, how can anyone ever use up that much money on top of what he already has?

I like the Disney Cruise idea.

I really am looking forward to the new movie, because Capt Jack is hot, in his own way.

Aisling, I can't believe you are home and not at ABC this morning...

Regis just said Gary Sinise is on with them today~

Wow, I had no idea, I never watch the show. Oh well, I guess it's back to driving around looking for him!

 

[Anjelica]

Interesting - my dad and stepmother actually met him last month. He came up to Walter Reed on Chas' ward and visited the soldiers. Chas actually didn't get to meet him as he was in surgery but both dad and stepmom were in his room - he came in and talked/took pictures.

He's got to meet some pretty interesting people. If any of you have ever watched Napoleon Dynamite (or the lesser known Employee of the month) I met "Pedro". I also meet Paulie from the Sopranos and yes folks - he has the white streaks in real life. Chas got to meet the President to and I was "this" close to meeting him but I got stuck on another floor when he came in.

So hubby is interested in the Med cruises - that was a surprise to me. I am interested in the 11 night one but those coincide with Sydney's school - however if we due the May 15th one she would only be out of school for the last few days (and many of those are either early dismissal or half days) AND she will be in 1st grade.

Pretty wet and rainy here today but supposed to be nice the rest of the week. We leave in a week to go visit Chas up there in good ole DC (btw I hate DC traffic). Just a quick update on Chas - he is going back into surgery today... His leg keeps draining (after his fall) and they want to take precautions to ensure it doesn't get infected. He would have been outpatient last week had he not fallen but at least they are being cautious.
