Wow, LizzY you must be the kid who does her homework the second she walks in the door from school!! That was great, I gotta tell ya, you are probably the most articulate 14 year old I have ever heard...more, more, more!!!

Thank you for the compliment, but what is this homework you speak of? the instant I get home I curl up with a book (or 2or3) or go online to read the boards. Homework? Weho needs home work?

click, click, clicking around and I clicked on "rate this thread"...Well, of course, I clicked on EXCELLENT and voted...now where do I find the results? :confused3
I don't know! I rated it a long time ago (and it won't let me rate it again, lol), but I, too, would like to see the rating.
 
Okay...so I was quite content to simply lurk...to laugh (at the foolishness of others' DHs) and cry (over the loss of LGMHPC life) in the privacy of my own home. And then, my friends, it turned ugly. It started with my first innocent trip to HD to swipe a few LGMHPC. Feeling victorious, I came back to catch up on the thread (since you people post like crazy!) only to be dismayed when I read that the correct swiping procedure was to swipe ALL of them! Determined, I dropped off DS3 with Nana and :tiptoe: to the other HD in town only to discover there were NONE!! :sad: (Which made me wonder...who are the other DISers in Huntsville, Alabama?!!)
I stewed about that for a few days, alternating reading all 200+ pages of this thread while packing for a trip to see GiGi (DS's Great-Grandmother). Then, I had an :idea:! There is a HD not far from GiGi's house...surely at some point I could go on a covert mission to run an errand, thereby disguising my real intent: to swipe some LGMHPC!
The morning arrived, and it seemed that good Karma was on my side: GiGi needed some ingredients for dinner and, while I was out, could I run by Michael's and pick out a frame for a picture? But, of course, GiGi!!
I practiced my :tiptoe: at the grocery store, then headed to Michael's for the frames. That, my friends, was when I knew that I was destined for swipe success that day. Everywhere I turned in Michael's: Lime Green!!! They had LG visors (though decidedly not as chic as Cynderella's!!), LG foamie coin purses (the perfect size for storing LGMHPC IMO), LG ribbon (for making a cute bow to attach to our stroller...some even had limes on it, LOL!), and, the piece de resistance: LG DUCT TAPE!!!

Emboldened by my Michael's success, I confidently (but :tiptoe: ) into HD to the paint section to the LGMHPC and TOOK THEM ALL!!! That's right! I didn't leave even one! :snooty: I am proud to say I swiped 31 LGMHPC. I realize that is not the record, but I did the best I could short of rifling through the cabinet underneath. (Which is my next step on the 12-step LGMHPC Program.)

Little could I know, however, that there was even more Limedon waiting for me....when I returned to GiGi's house, I was flipping through an LL Bean catalog, and found an entire line of luggage items in Tarragon(which looks suspiciously like LG). Simply go to llbean and search Luggage and Travel for Tarragon. They have a Touring Bag (both Regular and Large), Passport Organizer, GateCheck ID Organizer and Ticket Organizer!!! WOO HOO!!!

So...I practically flew home today, speed-read 20 pages (did I mention you guys are chatty??? There's no telling how many more pages y'all added just in the time it took to write this!!), then sat down to tell my tale.

My entire family thinks I'm nuts, but that's okay...I know that means, with your kind permission, that I'll fit in quite nicely here! :goodvibes

Happy swiping, everyone!!

:welcome: Kimber. That's the name of one of my best friends, and she's a true Disney fan, too. Great tip on Michael's. I'm dreaming of what I could do with LG duct tape. The possibilities are endless!
 

Welcome, welcome Kimber!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And may I say WOW that's quite and introduction!!! You've done you job - and done it well, I must say - So, once again welcome to the Tom Foolery! :dance3:

If ever a lurker should come out of hiding, it is you, macrosswife!
:welcome:
Lime green duct tape!! :love:

You know, the luggage we bought a few months ago is red, and that suits my DH and DS, but it also came in LG and I did fight valiantly for that noble color. Lost the battle, of course, but ought to have received a medal for bravery!

Now, no more lurking

You have clearly passed the initiation with flying colors!

And here is what the fashionable young DISer will be wearing at WDW this year...

KIF_0380.jpg


OK, so the T-shirt is a little LARGE..This way we get a few year's wear out of it..(he says it looks like a dress)...Hope I can shrink it a little before we leave, or a major growth spurt takes place....

The shoes are mine.. :teeth: His are actually yellow, like Mickey feet!


And might I had what a "bright" young man he seems to be! ;) :love: the outfit, he's got great style. :artist: I buy my kid's clothes big too, but with the girls I can just tie it up in a knot.

Funny you should ask! The Friday before I left, I went to see our investigators to get some of the lime green dye. They had 2 kinds liquid, and powder. The liquid I was not sure about traveling around with in my luggage, so I chose the powder. They told me it will really make the water noticeable. Well anyway, I packed everything (I thought) the night before so I would be ready to go the next day. When we got to WL I found they have the "spring" in the lobby that feeds the pool. I thought this would be just perfect, so I went back to my room to get a packet of the powder only to find in my rush to pack I forgot the dye! :guilty: This was not really a bad thing though, because I was told that one packet of the powder would keep the pool green for quite a while. What I would really like to do is just have a small stream of green going into the pool just so you could see it going in, but it being diluted after it hit the pool (I do want to complete my stay there). It's going to take a little practice to get the right portion of powder to do that but I have a whole year to practice so...............

Oh, I can see the headlines now. "In other news there has been an act of terrorism against Disney. A woman and her family have been picked up. After seizing her computer the FBI found a whole ring of these Lime green worshippers......" :confused3

HI!!!! Just got caught up on everything I missed while at the motherland. Un like Lizzy, I can't take the cliff notes version. I must read all. But now that I'm caught up I have to go to a meeting for work. Hopefully it will end early and I can post later.!!!


:wave2: pd112 :welcome: back!

I *think* sewer is male, but I have no solid evidence of that, so... :lmao:
 
I'm really enjoying the Disney show on the TRavel channel!! Catch a repeat if you havent seen it! :thumbsup2

BUT, makes me want to go NOW!!!!
 
Thanks for all the welcome back messages! 72 days til next trip :cool1: , which at least made leaving bearable.

I have litigation papers to get out this week and two swimmeets for DD (10) so won't have time for TR until at least Sunday. I promise not to read Lizzy's tho. Not everyone is lucky enough to have her life of leisure :lmao: :happytv: :lmao:

I think the 4000th poster should get a personally visit from ANC96 who will give the poster all the LGMHPCs she's been swipin from all around the country. Imagine pretending to be at the Motherland!!! :sad2: :sad2: We're so on to her!
 
4000!!!

Since I usually give out the prizes, I think for being the 4000th post, I will treat myself to a visit to WDW in two weeks! :goodvibes:
