September 17, 2006 - 11 Night Southern Caribbean Part 2

[captaincrash]

Captaincrash sign up my hubby, as long as it's not on the 18th (too much going on that day).

I asked DH if he would join in. He said no. I told him he doesn't have to win. He said yes.

You DID tell him we'd be selling photos from his participatiion of this foolhardy non-sense on Ebay ... didn't you? Win or LOSE we plan on exploiting this to the fullest! Well... maybe NOT. One has to have marketable images in oreder to really exploit this.

LOL!

OK... Now we have at least 3 lined up for the deal. No kids yet? I guess we can run the kids with "on the spot" nonsense. The last time we ran this we had a few signed up in advance - and the rest sort of jumped in on the spot! And that worked just fine. Of course, we still have 50+ days til sailing - so we have plenty of time left to drum up some committments!

Thanks for tossing your hat into the fray - and risking your husbands' eternal reputation here on the DIS.

PS - for a modest fee we can doctor every photo we take of him with an ice cream bar being wolfed and otherwise inhaled! All fees payable in mickey ice cream bar sticks. So - this may or may NOT play into your hands.

And what am I doing up at this hour? Why... I'm eBaying from my hotel?!!??! And why arn't YOU sweeping the eBay listings now? Whats - a - matter wuth ya? ANybody whos ANY-BODY is shopping eBay at 3AM? Ok.... I fell asleep early and sort of and came back to take a quick browse. I even found something to bid on that I've been looking for for some time!

Anyone recognize this?......

Yeah... this is whats' come of me after helping ta manage our 2 your daughters over nite with the "all hours" bottle feedings - and sleep management issues over nite and so on. It's that zombie twilight look SOME newish parents get after a couple years of this! In truth - I have my 5 YO sleeping over one arm with one of her hands on my shoulder right now... and i'm gonna go turn in.... try to put her back to sleep now.... again.

OK... TTFN ...

Got a good nights sleep and I'm at the hospital ready to go....

I almost feel like on of those race pit crew memebers in Crash's photos.

Of course I did

What he doesn't know won't hurt him Heck, he didn't know he had to wear his grass skirt TWICE until he read the last newsletter Better to keep him in the dark about some of these things.

I'm sure you'll get more kids and adults participating after the newsletter comes out because I KNOW that EVERYONE reads every word in the newsletter each month (inside joke for those who have recently asked me for info that was in last month's newsletter)

Thank you, Thank you! I just called and changed our rotation to what will work best for us.

 

[webray]

oh sure...why not...get the non drinker totally intoxicated!!!!!!

Sounds like a plan to me..lol!

 

[webray]

The Gaylord Opryland hotel and resort starting putting the christmas lights on the trees yesterday. It takes them 3 months to put them all on the trees and building as there are 2,000,000 lights to put in place. Mike

I tell you what..if that place is anything like the one in Orlando and Grapevine (TX), it is fantastic. When I head to Nashville to visit my sister we are going to stay there for sure, now just have to figure out how to squeeze in a visit to Nashville, lol.

Celeste, I think you would best fit into the category of wenchy pirate.

Linda, has Lynn signed up for Scrap booking yet? I am on the road all week and I would guess she will be there for the meet and grab bag exchange. Hey Lynn you are on your on to confirm this, hope ya slept well.

Ahh, yes.... The REAL cruise director!

Tony, so true but she is a great one for sure.

Long nights and days only 4 more to go, I think, not sure what day it is, and then I get to go home. Oh well the 14 hour days will have lots of OT attached. Good for the cruise budget. Almost used to the night shift thingie. Still not sleeping much, shoot I shoulda brought my elestra….I think that is the stuff the doc gave me.

I gotta get to Walmart today and try to find some jimmies for us.

I wonder if the Wonder crew is ready for us. I do think the Magic Crew enjoyed us on the PC cruise, I think.

Any body going to be in Dallas Aug 20-24???

 

[captaincrash]

Of course I did

WELL now.....

Maybe you should tell him that ..."this cruise goes SO FAAARRRRR South that he'll have to wear his Grass Skirt EVERYDAY! ".... So, Just Don't Pack him any pants or shorts! Bring 2 or 3 grass skirts and one of those Polynesian head pieces (refer to photo) and he'll be all set ... right? Until he hits the firts port when he'll buy some real pants and shorts! .... or if we're real unlucky ... then the ship will have pants and shorts that fit him on a mark down sale! And if not ... then do you suppose he'd resort to knockin' on cabin doors to "borrow" a pair to get himself decent til the next port rolls around???

SO ... maybe you can also pack him some of those cool grass leg and arm things too as shown in this picture.

Ya kno... I shudder to consider what my spouse might NOT be tellin' me... now that you got me thinkin' about this from your POV.

 

[Q's My Princess]

Celeste...here are a couple of pirates/wenches from our last cruise!!

 

[captaincrash]

Oh yeah...

if the guys are dressing in grass skirts then it does follow that we'll have grass skirts and head gear for the ladies too... eh?

​

 

[seaulater]

Ordered the Cruise shirts today and in the process got a new discount code:
POLANDTHICK Good for $5 off a $20 order. Good until August 2

Might be of use for any newbies out there.

Thanks........from an oldie and a procrastinator!

Well.........considering you signed up your wife last time without her permission, you better be careful!!!!

Actually, she already let me know months ago she would be attending. However, I figure with moving and all she hasn't been able to spend alot of time scrapbooking these last couple months!

Can't wait for the cruise.

Help! Someone translate. First Disney cruise, not a clue what this means. Am I a TAP, an APT...? What do I want to be?

Is there a store near Port Canaveral where we can stock up on supplies (alcoholic and otherwise)?

Capt Crash, that grass skirt guy is completely hot. Any chance he'll be cruising with us?

DId I miss something? (yeah ... so what else is new?)... Are we having a grab bag exchange too? What do we have to do to particiapte?

Is it thematic? Is there a suggested dollar value range? Or is it a "white elephant" thing?

 

[icunurse_celeste]

So Celeste, when are we getting together this summer? How about September 17?

It's a date. Sorry I have been so busy! I would like to come up your way in the fall- post cruise. We'll see how that works out.


How is everyone getting their dining schedule already? Is it online or do you have to call?

If you dont get it, try to change when you are onboard.. Concierge Level, folks can Select Rotations !



Hey T, do I have this Right ? Anyone ?

 

[Scott H]

Linda, I just saw the PM Lynn sent and your response, funny but we seem to communicate here at times due to work.

CaptainCrash, the grab bag thingie is for the scrap booking folks.

Gotta go in early so no Walmart for me today.
