Okay...I've called the Late Night DISers, now I'm calling the SINGLE DISers!

[CoasterAddict]

Hmm, hadn't heard about diet pop and the munchies. I do avoid it, 'cause it gives me headaches. Artificial sweetener and me--not a good combination.

Hey, guys, I'm free on Saturday, too...of course, I'm not free for the time it would take me to get there from MA, but with this cold wave going on, booooy is it tempting!

 

[house_of_princesses]

booooy is it tempting!

Woo Hoo, you're not kidding!!! I actually looked into airfare! If it were around $100 I would have joined you this weekend. I may have even taken the dd's.....I dunno, maybe.

I'm a social butterfly by nature, and this being cooped up business (I'm not really that cooped up, but it feels like it) is driving me closer and closer to the airport.

I put a fare finder alert on with two different online companies. If it gets low enough, we're outta here!


Legs, I hope you find a peaceful resolution to your questions. Focus on how much you're in demand!! That's great!

 

[BarryHom]

No fair? Doh! I can't videotape everyone puking on the Scrambler!

Fairs can be expensive, but where else can you eat Chop on a Stick? Besides, I can add to my roller coaster count at the fair.

But it seems like I've been voted out.

 

[tmq2766]

AWWWWWWW I want to come toooooooo.... Ok enough whining.
Lets do another meet and greet in December..... I will be there Dec. 3rd.

 

[floridaminnie]

Barry, you can video tape us puking on something at WDW instead. Don't know what though! The Merry Go Round makes my stomach weak, so if you tie me on who know!

TMQ, we can do another meet in Dec.!

My "date" is suppose to call me tonight. Will have to see. He orginally wanted Brianna to go with us to a "kid" friendly place. I nixed that in the butt. First off I would like to out like an "adult", second I haven't even met him yet, so she's not going to meet him and third, this way I can't hide behind my daughter. I seem to do that and decided I should stop. (One of my NY resolutions) So we shall see if he calls tonight.

Something interesting happened to my yesterday. I was carded while buying Lotto tickets. I can understand for alchohol, but I'm way past that age. I think I embaressed the girl, b/c she read my b-year wrong and I corrected her. I think that was a compliment for her asking. I still get yelled at work once in awhile for being out of class without a pass!

 

[floridaminnie]

He called me! I have a "real" date for tomorrow night. He was impressed that I already knew what I was going to wear. Well, I had all week to think about it! Will have to see how it goes!

 

[BarryHom]

Well, I don't know about dating for me now with school and work. That is, unless I PM Gina... I can buy Evercrack and go online too.

As for my classes, like PW, I'm taking Economics. The class was freezing! It was like 20 below or something in the room. I was also considering getting a MBA. If I go straight through, I will graduate in about 3 years. I'm not sure if I want to spend that much more time in school, but it will pay off in the end. I'm going to see what the job market is like in a year or so. Then I can become...the CEO of Cedar Point!

Sounds great, Barry! Speaking of Economics, today my professor gave us the great news that we will NOT have class on Tuesday due to the holiday on Monday. LOLOLOL! He likes all his classes to be taught the same thing at the same time and have the same number of classes each week or it throws him off. Since his Monday classes are off that day, we're off on Tuesday to keep it all in synch for him. LOL!

I wonder....why doesn't Sprite have caffeine?? For that matter, why do they not make caffeinated ginger ale, or those fruit sodas like grape or orange?? Just something to ponder at 11:51 on a Wed. night

I know that one! The clear sodas do not have caffeine!

How exciting!!!!!! I love going out on dates. Have fun and let us know how it goes.

 

[Pin Wizard]

I'm planning on moving to Virginia! Yesterday I e-mailed a realtor in my development who has handled many sales in this neighborhood. He must know what he's doing! LOL! He e-mailed me back and wants to come see my home. I asked him for suggestions on sprucing up the place. I haven't e-mailed him back yet because I'm behind on house cleaning! Ugh! Have to hurry up and do it! Okay...who will help me?? It will give you the perfect excuse to stop at Disney somewhere along the way. I'm in South FL!

I think the question might have been better worded, why don't they put caffeine in the clear drinks. They certainly could. I don't know if it's still available, but for a while you could be caffeinated *water.* Said to be popular among stock brokers who are only allowed to have water "on the floor."

FM-I'm impressed that he asked you what you were planning to wear.

 

[Disney845]

YEA!!!!!!!! Oh Suzanne, I am very happy for you. Hope that he is a "gentleman" and the evening goes wonderfully for you!!

I have a DATE tomorrow night myself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My friend is having this "game" party and "work guy" and I are going!!!

This makes DATE (not non-date!! ) # 4 if we count lunch and going out in the evening on NYE to be separate entities. If not this is solid # 3!!! Can you tell I am excited??

 

[DocRafiki]

Hey guys -- just checking in. I've been reading it all but can't concentrate long enough to respond. Went to the Dr tonight and am on Darvocet for abdominal pain. Thought for sure I'd be in the hospital tonight getting gall stones out or something, but nope. It's just starting to work. Whee. I already had high blood pressure from the pain (that's new to me; I'm usually low), and now the CB is making me mad. So, I'm going to stop reading, take a good shower, and go catch some drug-induced zzzzz's.

Too bad I can't take this stuff while I'm at work. Y'all have a good night!

Wow Doc, I really hope that you are feeling better soon!!

 

[house_of_princesses]

Suzanne, Have a wonderful time tomorrow night!! I'm impressed, having your outfit picked our already! As Disney says, I, too, hope he is a gentleman and he leaves you smiling!!

PW, I don't know what to say! What does darling heart throb say?! What does ds say!! If I were within striking distance, I'd truly be happy to help you spruce up, pack, even move. Do you think this will happen before school lets out? WOW! Major life change, happenin' here on the DIS! I hope it all goes smoothly for you, PW.

Barry, are you taking any other classes, or just Econ?

 

[house_of_princesses]

Doc, Did they determine what the pain was from? Hope you're feeling right as rain, real soon. That darvoset knocks me out cold! Hope you get the rest you need.

Btw, what exactly does 'right as rain' mean, anyway? I for one don't think there's much right about rain, except for it's obvious purpose...spoiling a beautiful summer outing.

Consider the phrase “right as rain”. Someone might say, “I felt like the sun was going to come out, and I was right as rain.” Aside from the mixed metaphor, why “right as rain”? What does correctness have to do with rain? Nowadays in the English language “right as rain” is a kind of opaque cliché. Perhaps its basic meaning can be expressed as “straight as rain”, or “straight as rain falls”, aside from effects winds may have. Years ago, people used to call straight lines in English “right lines”, derived no doubt from the Latin linea recta, the term once in common use. The words “right” and “recta” appear to have come from an Indo-European root which means “to move in a straight line.” The metaphor plays on a resonance between geometric straightness and correctness of judgment. The basis for this metaphor appears to have been propagated by way of Indo-European languages for thousands of years. It seems to work by virtue of some underlying, hidden process that takes place when we acquire an Indo-European language.
