[Jeepers Lady]

I've been hearing about this thread for weeks -- finally have a chance to post -- Steve has me out looking for dark red lipstick for my "look" -- have to uphold my end of the woman with perfect nails, smoking a cigar, ......... with dark red lipstick ------ Yes everyone -- fireplug is a hoot to live with - and to keep up with --- see you all really soon
Jeepers Lady -- Coleen -- aka fireplug's dw

 

[justmestace]

Welcome Coleen!! Nice to finally meet you! I've been telling my DH all about this too, he's thinks I'm crazy. I decided to finally start using his name, since he has begun to refer to himself as "DH" lately. His name is Jay. Besides Megan the bride-to-be, who is 21, we have a daughter Jordan, 13, and a son Jared, 10.
Off to drag out all the snorkel gear and make sure that it's "ship-shape"!
See you all soon!!

Stacey

 

[fire4506]

Ok Stacey is the snorkle for you to use in the hot tubs or are they for the kids to use?

And Coleen don't give away all of our secrets that Steve and I have been working on

 

[justmestace]

I don't know about anybody else, but my snorkel mask is for the pool. You guys do your girl-watching from a lounge chair, I prefer to be less conspicuous, and do my peeking underwater! And I have prescription lenses in my mask so that I don't miss anything!
SECRETS?? What are you two up to?

 

[fireplug]

Us ?

Up to something?

Perish the thought we are paragons of virtue and have nothing planned

Steve

 

[justmestace]

Me again! Sorry, this has nothing to do with our cruise, but I had to share.
Sitting at dinner tonight, and daughter Jordan, who, last year in the 6th grade had to take a 3-day extensive sex-ed class, says to me..."Mom, can I take precaution lessons?". Well, Jay and I just looked at each other, and I know we were both thinking about last years' classes....and I didn't know what to say. I guess we both must have really looked funny, because then she said "You know, Mom, DRUMS!" I thought we were going to die laughing. Wait till you meet her, she truly is a blonde. (No offense) I told her to go look up the word "percussion" in the dictionary.
'Night all!

Drumline is always the cool ones in band

Steve

 

[newbycruiser]

you guys are all sick, you probably have no life, and are lurking on the boards just to shock us sweet, unsuspecting cruisers!!!

I played drums in the band...that's where all the cool guys hung out...

 

[justmestace]

Oh, man, we've corrupted another one! Might as well just hop on the "band"wagon, Gail!

Look at those timers!!

As I was doing laundry yesterday, I kept thinking "I'd better set this aside, I want to wear it on the cruise"...then I thought "You idiot! You have 3 weeks to go. You know you'll do laundry again before then!". When I talked to my mom today, she said she'd been doing the same thing!

Going to the Diamondbacks game tonight. At least it will keep me from "practice packing".....or finding another floor to paint!

Oh, and Gail, the colors on the OPI website are WAY off. It does show my Las Vegas Strip Poker as mauve. It's not. It's a really pale blush. I see they now have polishes for dogs. Somebody better tell my Molly to RUN!

EIGHTEEN DAYS!!!!!!!

 

[#1Mouse]

Fireplug - you are baaaaad! I was reading another thread (about the cruise after ours) and I noticed you replied to them about the shrimp and creme brulee!!!! Too Funny. We must have the cruise with all the talkers - they have 4 pages and out of that is a bunch of "bumps" to keep the thread on the 1st page.

Ahhhh! Band - When I was in school I played the flute in band, Oh...........and one time at band camp........... (Ok this will only be funny to those who have seen the American Pie movie).

Sorry guys I'm not sure what color of nail polish I will be wearing. I have one more nail appointment before we leave. I probably will just wear the same color I have been wearing all summer - it's a dark hot pink. I can't change colors now, my nail lady won't know what to think!!!!!!! I usually pick on color and wear it all summer and then change when winter comes - I hate making decisions!

Oh Stacey out of the mouth of babes!! When my 19 YO DD was 4, her and daddy went out for the day for lunch and a movie, when they came home, she came running in telling me "Daddy took me to see The Lady is a Tramp"!

Coleen - Welcome Aboard!!! Does Steve really make you wear red lipstick while you smoke your cigar??

Hey Steve and Dale, my DH (oh, his name is John) sent me a picture of some tee shirts he thought would look really nice on all the ladies. If you're interested I will PM them to you -- definately can't post them here! If anyone else wants to see them let me know!!!!

Gail

 

[fire4506]

Gail, yes I would like to see the shirts that your hubby thinks that you ladies need to wear. Tell John thanks for the attire homework.

 

[CapnHook]

Well... It hs finally come to my attention that I need to become involved with this discussion board. I'd like to introduce myself. My name is John and I'm the worser half of #1Mouse.

I have been kept up to date (vaguely) through the laughter-ridden incantations from my beautiful bride. However, I feel that I may get more out of this first hand.

Gentlemen, please don't ask about the nail polish color. All I know is every other Saturday she comes running in the house waving her hands screaming "don't touch me... my nails may still be wet!" We're still working on getting Gail used to cigar smoke. She looks great in my robe and slippers... oh, sorry... "smoking jacket".

It sounds like we're all gonna have a great time on this cruise. Gail is a huge fan of Capn Morgan & Coke. Has anyone heard of Strip Phase-10? Steve and Dale, I have a little something comming your way. If there's anything of great importance I missed, by all means bring it up again!

John

 

[scrappy910]

Gee John, the picture of the tee shirt that you are forwarding to Steve and Dale doesn't sound anything like the one you were describing to me the other day. Did I misunderstand your description of Mickey???? Keep in mind the majority of the ladies in our crusingang are not in the category to be wearing hoochee mama items. (Okay, maybe Laura and Rose could)

See you in a couple of weeks.

Carol

PS Do we need to be synchronizing our nail polish color???

 

[justmestace]

Nail Polish Color:
How about lime green, to match our Mickeys? Only kidding, really!

If the t-shirt picture was taken at Disneyland Paris, then I believe that I have seen it. Mickey's big brown eyes are staring out at you? We had a great debate here as to whether or not the whole shirt was printed. I thought not. That shirt would look more like Goofy's ears on me, I'm afraid.

Hi John, and welcome!! Are you ready for this crazy group?

D-Backs lost, but we had great seats, dugout level (field), as close as you can get. But still, as I sat with my feet on the rail, I told Jay "Just think, in 18 days I'll be sitting on my verandah with my feet up" Not on the rail, of course...legs are too short for that! I swear, I can't go one night without dreaming about this cruise!

17, 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10.........WOW!

 

[huckster]

is this a family cruise??
and do i need nails??

 

[#1Mouse]

Must be the same picture you saw Stacey! So it was taken at Disneyland Paris - that makes sense, of course my first thought was Mardi Gras!!!! Definately Goofy ears!!!!!

huckster of course this is a family cruise

Ok, want to start the bets going now - do you think some cruiser will show up on Castaway Cay wearing a Thong?????

 

[fireplug]

do you think some cruiser will show up on Castaway Cay wearing a Thong?????

It will definetly not be me. BUT ( )there is always hope that some babe will wear one on the ADULT beach. Dale and I will be there with binoculars and cameras JUST in case

Welcome CapnHook, nice to hear from some other men going. Do tell though, what is this Strip Phase-10 Drink? Game? Drinking Game? Sending you a PM with an email address for the T-shirt pic.

Well I will check in later .

Steve

Yikes!!

My guess is that there will be at least one!!

I'm with Steve on this one. You won't find me in a thong! I do believe that for the sake of the cruisers and all of mankind in general the guys and I should scour the adult beach looking for anyone in thong attire. I'll have the digital camera and the binoculars to properly document the "excursion". That way we'll be able to share our findings with anyone not willing to accept such a grueling task. It's kinda like Corcodile Hunter - it's not a job for everyone, but someone's got to do it! (Steve, there is also the unfortunate chance that our findings won't end up with a "hot babe"). I'm sure there are friends and co-workers who would be interested in the documentation from our findings.

I think all the ladies should coordinate there nail polish AND lipstick. That way we'll all be able to recognize eachother from a distance (this does not apply to our fellow male counterparts). It's a guy thing! Besides, with our keen sense of direction, ability to follow directions, high-power sense of smell, and hunting skills, we'll be able to find our friends without fail. It comes from generations of being great hunters dating back to the caveman (I know, I saw it on cable!)

For those who don't know, Phase-10 is a card game. You play with special cards rather than standard playing cards (like UNO has special cards). For the really cruious type... Directions for Phase 10. Strip Phase-10 would then be the natural extension like strip poker is to regular poker. It was just a suggestion for those cruisers who don't play poker (Carol, Gail, Linda, Laura, Rose, etc.) However, the cruise might be a great place to learn how to play poker! Steve, you made a great suggestion. If we change it to "Drink Phase-10" then we could play right on deck 9 or 10 without offending too many other cruisers!

huckster- this is gonna be a Great family cruise!

justmestace - It is not whether you win or loose, it's that you went to the game. How cool that you sat so close! We'll find you an extra chair so you can still "kick your feet up and relax"

Don't worry Carol, I've got a special shirt planned for you!

Ok... back to work.

John

I am sooo relieved that we have with us a group of strong and fearless men, willing to take on such a daunting task as to protect the world from the evil Thong, and document it for future research. Such a contribution to society is sure to earn each one of you a Nobel prize. I am certain that my strong and fearless Jay would be MORE than happy to dedicate some of his time on such a worthy cause. Normally, he would never EVER look at another woman, but since this is purely scientific, I think he could FORCE himself!

Definitely glow-in-the-dark lipstick!
For some reason, I was justing thinking about that, the lipstick, the cigars, and suddenly I had a picture of Bill Clinton flash before me.

Guess I'll force myself to go to work, before I get in REAL trouble!
