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

[TexasDisneyBelle]

Hi everyone! I'm Ellen! I'm not necessarily new to DisBoards, but I recently lost my Disney counter-part/ travel buddy/ Disney endurer. My mom passed away on February 20th, 2011. Disney World is something we shared together. Some of the fondest memories of her include Disney World.
Anyway, I now have had my world upside down inside out and every other which way. But the only part of my world to remain the same *or, ever changing* is Disney World, I just have no one to share my love for or excitement with.

So I hope to find a few friends on here to get excited with all of the news and changes at Disney World. I hope I eventually find someone to share trips with, but that is wishful thinking
I hope you all welcome me with open arms

WELCOME!!! We are fun, especially if you don't mind a certain amount of snarkiness. (sorry DC )

I'm sorry about your mom. At least you have some great memories.

I hate iron infusions, but necessary for me to stay awake for more than a couple hours at a time.

Good morning all... what's on the singles social club calendar today?? ... for me its

In other news, this lady who tried to get off jury duty by saying that the three people that annoyed her the most was "hispanics, african-americans, and jews", was sentenced to Jury Duty for LIFE by the Judge. I thought that was hilarious and taught me a lesson or two about the next time I want to plan my excuse. I tried to get off jury duty one time and not only did they put me on it anyway, I was the foreperson. Worse two weeks of my life.

My curiosity made me click on the link as I am a sucker for weird and crazy news stories. As for this particular person... the three people that annoy ME the most? Racists, hypocrites, and stupid people. Needless to say, I say she got what she deserved. My late mother had to serve on jury duty back in the early 2000's. She and my dad were away on a trip in Florida then and my sister and I watched the mail while they were gone. Didn't open a thing. By the time they came back, she was already cursing me for not getting to that jury duty notice as her time to reply had expired and she had no choice but to serve. Never spoke to me with a cheery tone during those two weeks.

Hey, Ellen. Name's David. I can truly relate as to what you've been through as I lost my own mother back in 2008. Worst summer of my life. The surviving members of my family wanted to find a way to make our summer better for all of us (as I'm sure my mom would've wanted us to do) next year, so we all agreed a trip to the World was essential. I was smitten hard with it and wanted to go back so bad that I did just that last year for my first solo trip. Loved both experiences as it really made me more of a social person than it did back at home. I'm strongly considering my next trip will be in May of next year, so if you're planning on a trip sometime then, I hope to run into there as well.

BTW, :welcome" to the club. And don't mind the bartender/owner. He's a cool guy, but I hear his harem drives him nuts.

"A great group"!! Sweet! We have the fresh meat successfully conned into thinking we are a great group, and not just a gathering of crazy people!

DUDE!!! Don't give away the secret to this thread's success!

So, Morse Code is dead, and we're too tired to type. Thus, we've resorted to smilies. Betcha we'll be talking in 1337 speak next. :3

Well that cuts me out of the conversation... Who's going to teach me this 1337 language?

Ok seriously.... did I miss the memo?

I was gonna do a big 1337 speak response to this.... but honestly.... I'm too lazy. lol

There are several different versions and levels of doing it... but the most basic is you simply replace letters with numbers as they fit.

example.... 1337 is actually "leet"

After that... you can start adding other symbols and characters to replace your letters, such as "@" for an "A"

Oorrr, you could cheat and use this translator I found.

you know we wouldn't pick on you if we didn't like you....

 

[ctnurse]

Thank you! I'm really excited. What kind of nurse are you?

I do home health and LOVE it!

Yeah. I tried. A lot of overnight shipping is crazy expensive. I would be better off going to a store and buying a really expensive suitcase (what I hoped to avoid!). I have Amazon Prime, but unless it is sold directly from Amazon, you can't use the free 2 day shipping/ $4 overnight shipping. Lame

I just spoke to my dad though, and he said he has a suitcase I can borrow. So, if I don't find one, I have a backup I can use.. thank goodness.

I'm so excited for my trip!

yup... Definately cheating...


To be honest though.... If you know the basics, it works great since they always tell you you should include numbers and sometimes special characters in your passwords. So instead of using a plain text password, throw in some 1337 and instantly your password goes from weak to strong.

Example:

password == p@55w0rd

you know we wouldn't pick on you if we didn't like you....

Hmmmmm..... Guess that's one way to look at it.


and at least you aren't pointing at me while laughing at me.

who says were weren't!

c'mon you didn't have that girl in school that tease you because she liked you....

 

[bluedevilinaz]

That is awesome. Also, apply for a transporter position at the local hospitals. They have trouble keeping people in those positions. Pay might be slightly better than housekeeping. . .Spring Valley Hospital was where I worked. . .I have inside connections there. . .lol

I'll check that out. Thanks for the tip on that.

You're coming to NYC??! sweet! you need to let me know, it's just a train ride in for me.
Oh and btw my sorority sisters and I are headed to Vegas the first weekend in August so I may have to hunt you down!

As for the speech, you know you can do it, I'm sure you have some great story that is funny and will make everyone cry. some of the best toasts are the ones that come straight from the heart and aren't rehearsed. Good luck sweetie!

Yup! I'm gonna be there the weekend of July 30th for the Blue Man Group fan meet(I'm a bigger Blue Man fan than I am Disney actually, not by much though, haha) I'll let you know the exact dates once I get my plane ticket.

Awesome! I'm always down to hang out with college chicks on the strip!

I've got a few good ideas for it. haha. Thanks

Good Luck with the job! And have fun in NY, I love the city. Going in on Friday to see an art show. Lot's of good places here, I recomend Rattle and Hum on 35th St, great beer selection (60+ on tap) and fairly close to Penn.

Thanks! I'm sure I will. It'll be my first time so I hope I can take in everything in the 4-5 days I'll be there. Nice. Cool I'll keep that in mind for the rest of the group since I only drink hard liquor. We'll mainly be in SOHO though around the Astor Place Theater.

Gee, and I thought my password technique was unique. Ah, well, what can you do?

Of course we would never do that. No one's designed a smiley for that yet. J/K

school... not really....


actually... between being the geeky nerd and homeschooling... didn't get much of that. most of the time I was either the guy who the girls enjoyed playing with my hair (my hair used to be long), or they enjoyed drawing all over me in marker.

I used to live in NYC. I miss it! SoHo is cool. If you guys happen to find yourselves on the Upper West Side.. and you like cookies, there is a bakery there called Levain that has hands down the BEST cookies I have ever encountered in my entire existence. They are amazing.

You were homeschooled? I was homeschooled for a while during high school.
