Now here's the kicker, He tells me that the Activation Dept is closed! I need to call back tomorrow! After blowing an entire night, I gotta waste a morning with them as well! Thank God I have my Windows XP partition. That cuts it I'm officially going back to XP and only using Vista for...well...Geez, I don't know. I am pretty well convinced that it is good for nothing. (Maybe Crysis when it comes out for Christmas, but that's it) I may need to go to the Dark Side and get an Apple next time.

This was taken just a few years ago. My parents gave us a trip on the dolly steamboat at one of the lakes around here for our anniversary. I really like this picture of us.

That is a very good picture. You look like you were having a great time.

Your cake is very neat, but I can totally see why would would be upset! She totally took over! That's like my mom. She's threatening to take over the decorations for the reception and if she does I'm going to be upset!

I'm sorry it's taken me so long to respond, major DIS problems tonight!

Decorations don't even go there. We could have the place decorate for us for an additional cost. (yah right, we were paying for all of this ourselves) So we said no. But then they said we could decorate ourselves as long as all the decorations were taken down and cleaned up by 10:00 pm. Which was the time our reception was over. Well we had to be at the airport at 11:00 so we choose not to do decorations because we did not want the hassel of cleaning it all up. Boy were we surprised to walk into the reception to find it decorated also. You guessed it the mother in law did it again. She told me "plain is not good enough for my son" So she and the other part of his family started taking decorations down at 8:30. While the party was still going on.

Hello Steve

Sorry I was not reading back so I just saw that you have been posting. I am sorry to hear that you have been having computer issues. I have heard nothing good about Vista. I have a coworker that bought a system with it on it and he returned the whole thing after fighting it for a weekend.

 

[MinnMick01]

here we come

I wasn't going to get Vista for this new computer at first. But I kept getting questions from my co-workers about whether they should get it or have it installed on their new systems. I finally decided I should learn it first hand. I'm sorry now that I blew the money on it, I could have gotten a kick-a## soundcard for what I spent.

Here is one of my honey having breakfast one morning.

I took this one a the zoo before the summer got to hot.

 

[MinnMick01]

The dog is telling me it is way passed our bedtime. So I guess I will finish looking at pictures tomorrow. That will be my insentive to clean the house. Clean one room scan some pictures to post. I like that idea.

Good night everyone

I got another FO

Fun waterpark, have you been there before??? We have not been there this year since they added Poseidon's Rage. The coasters are fun, have a good time. We went to Noah's Ark about a month ago, that's always fun.

Do you get your tickets prior to coming up??

My brother has some $5 off coupons for us to use. Do you know of a cheaper option? I think the gate price is $34, so we're at $29.

Is it legal to make a U-Turn in a controlled intersection in AZ? It is not in Wisconsin but it's happens more and more lately. I notice that it is a regular occurence in Florida.

Wanna bet on that one?

Got pulled over in Brookfield by the mall about 3-4 years ago for doing it. It was on Bluemound.

Luckily the lady in front of me did one and I told the officer I couldn't turn left like I wanted to (I really was doing the U-turn though) because she cut me off. He said you are correct, so he let me off.

I brought up the fact that there was no sign at the intersection, he said that it is illegal in all of WI to do a U-turn at a light.

Never knew that.

My brother failed his test because he stopped in the median coming out of the testing center.

Not sure if it is any median or if it was because it was a narrow one.

Gotta love that, fail in less than a minute.

Carrie and Janice,

Have either of you started Jeff and Robin's new game yet? Are we all supposed to start tomorrow or can we start today?

Friday, Oct 19th...11:35 pm, I'll either be out on my verandah or holding Kristin's head while she's praying to the porcelin god. (Poor girl is very prone to sea sickness).

At 11:35 on Friday we won't even be on the boat yet. What is she motion sick from?

When I first started reading this, I thought maybe she'd be out partying in Cocoa Beach that night.

 

[JLDSMD]

BTW, 2:30 a.m. on Saturday, I'll probably be up checking the alarm clock to make sure I have them set.

That and calling Nancy room down at the Marriott.

Now that I think of it, I think I'm going to switch my room and tell no one about it. I can see her prank calling me in the middle of the night.

 

[JLDSMD]

Whoooops! Have another beer Nancy!!

Sorry, didn't read ahea enough.

I'm sure this won't be the last time.

Now if you said the 21st, then I'd just let you keep thinking that. We'll all be in KW when you're at port with no ship to get on.

Although the Wonder will be in.

Nancy will be tagging all these other people going to Nassau. She'll just think it's the "curse" and she got rerouted.

Have you tried the Miller Chill, Mark says it very good. If I drink beer, I'm a Miller Lite girl also.

I tried the Miller Chill. Now I'm not a beer drinker, so my opinion means nothing, but I couldn't tell the difference between that and regular Miller Lite. I could NOT taste the Lime or Salt.

Do have to say that Miller hit a home-run with that one. I don't think they knew it would be that big. I'll bet Bud has a similar product by next summer. If so, then you know this was huge.

Yup, QVC's "Today's Special Value" about a week or so ago. It's really bling...bling!! Kristin tried to take it from me already. I ordered the wrong size but I'll just wear it on a different finger for a better fit.

Hmmm....what finger will Nancy put the ring on?
