Singles Social Club: It's 5 o'clock somewhere!

My DH (geek in the 10th degree) posted this for me....if you click on the Pic, you get it even larger!

This was from one of the early Dismeets where we ran EMH together one night!

We had spent MANY hours on the Thread and in a Chat room together before this....

WOW...although I wasn't able to join that trip I do remember chatting with many of those people and the many enjoyable nights spent in the original chatroom. Thanks for sharing the trip down memory lane.

I should have known the pyrate would have a good solution.

The way you guys keep talking about the old chatroom and the original thread, I have his mental image of you all typing away at your apple IIe's.

But I know this was just a couple years ago.

Darcy already gave you a bit of an idea where the place is... but while it's technically "off-site" and not on Disney Property, if you've ever seen the old overhead picture with the Disney property outlined, It's located in a little landlocked section of property which you can only access thru Disney. (Disney on 3 sides, I-4 on the other). It's pretty much next to the Pop Century.

And if you know your Disney roads and Landmarks, It's Either Straight at the light off Backstage Lane (The "DTD/MGM/anything Disney" exit from EPCOT) at Buena Vista parkway... Or if you were coming from DTD, It's a left at the light with the Big Red Van/Goofy DVC sign.

And as for cheaper... I'm pretty sure if we get a few of us sharing the costs, It wouldn't be too expensive to get a room there..... and as a bonus... You could save your DVC points for another trip!

Incestuous to date a CM? NEVER!! Besides the fact that several people in this thread have expressed a desire to be a CM at some future date..... How could it truly be incestuous?

Admit it... You might consider dating them JUST for their employee discounts! (And the accent on some of the World Showcase employees probably wouldn't hurt )

Ok, thanks for the info... I will look at the resort and letchya know whats up... I was kinda looking forward to staying at Boardwalk... but dag, to save some DVC points... thats a good look.

Ok, well let's say this about the CM thing... IF someone from this board that is interested in me - a 38 year old, relatively intelligent, minimally ghetto Black woman AND becomes a CM (particularly with ANY type of accent) ... we can discuss.

There is a huge thread on the resort over in the Orlando Area Hotels and Attractions forum that has pictures of the resort and a lot of other info.

2. Where did I leave that pulled pork?

3. Maybe I'll compromise and bring part of it. Do you prefer the bottom or the top? ...

Ooooh...major out-of-context snicker.

I have been away too long! Cannot keep up, but I am about to board a plane to exciting Oklahoma City!!!

Ok... good morning! I have a little vent for today and maybe someone here can give me some insight, tell me Im wrong or crazy or what... anyway, was on the phone with a girl friend of mine last night. We have known each other for about 6 years. She is one of those type of people that you need to (as my Mama says) "love from across the street." She is a genuine person and many times wears her heart on her sleeve but she is 8 years younger than I, and her priorities are MUCH different from mine. She likes confrontation, to be in the middle of everyone's business and in general, one of those people I can only take in doses.

Anyhoo, last night she is telling me about this free retreat she wants me to go on with her. Now this is not a holistic retreat, or yoga retreat, or muffin top revolution retreat, so it was not something I was interested in. So I said to her, you know thats your thing. Have fun but Im not going to that. So SHE then says "You are soooo anti-social. Lets just call a spade a spade." I responded that I am NOT anti-social. I am selectively social. I work a rediculous amount of hours and raising a 5-year old alone. Im 38 years old and I don't have time for nonsense. I spend my time with those I want to and will enjoy my free time with and honestly, I don't spend a lot of time in clubs, or huge events because its not my thing. I don't understand why people make the assumption that someone is anti-social just because they don't HAVE to be at every party, every event, every dramatic episode??? This is not Real Housewives... I have too many other things I'd rather do and think about.

I don't know you that well yet, but your are not anti social!!! She just has different priorities, don't dwell on it!!

Just because something falls outside of your social circle, doesn't mean that you are anti-social.

Thank you! I forgot to add that I only have met 2 or 3 (if Graeme counts) people from this thread so I know mostly no one would know one way or another if I was, but I still value your opinions.

 

[MICKEY88]

ummm nope, I'd be more than happy to keep her warm..

Sorry. I had to edit your post to reply on my phone.
Anyway, here's my 2 cents.
I'm sorry she was giving you a hard time. You should enjoy the fact that you're mature enough not to bow under pressure if you really just aren't into something. You know what you enjoy and are willing to follow your own road in living your life to the fullest.
This is a good thing.
(Do I sound like a fortune cookie?)

 

[CoasterAddict]

Ah, what a considerate guy.

 

[TexasDisneyBelle]

Thank you for offering. Especially since you were the one who came up with the hat only suggestion.

Ok, first of all... I feel super special that you went through all of that to reply. Thanks much and it DID sound like a fortune cookie but I love fortune cookie quotes... did you ever used to add "in bed" at the end when you were in high school?? LOL. We did that all the time.

When I did that with your statement, I just busted out laughing.

"in bed" and "While naked" are the two different versions of the fortune cookie trick I've heard.

I could never decide which one to do, so now I just do them both to make sure all the bases are covered.





And as to the whole Mickey88/Louisa packing suggestion conversation.... I'm gonna stick with my position.
