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

[DCTooTall]

Good Morning all,

New to this section of the boards here since I am new to being single. Wife is walking out after 12 years of marriage (20 years together) after an affair on her part. Still very hard to deal with since she is still living in my house for another month. Biggest concern in my life is my DD (5) and the affect my ex's decision will have on her. Will be taking a daddy/daughter suprise trip at the end of June before custody arrangement begins. Hopefully this will be a good time for her and give me a chance to bond with her.

Finding the 'single life' very lonely after 20 years of being together but learning to adjust and find my way. Decided I need to put myself out there and with my love of Disney what better place. This is all new to me and I am looking forward to developing a new group of friends.

Well... to the group.... But sorry it's under such circumstances.


We can be a pretty friendly group here, so feel free to just join in, have fun, and let our randomness, humor, and complete craziness entertain you!

Question: What Disney movie(s) have you never seen that seems strange that you haven't? I had received that advertisement in the mail where you can order Disney movies and realized how many I never actually saw but feel ashamed, in a way, that I hadn't.

Bambi
Fox and the Hound
Song of the South (I had to actually look up the name since I had no clue what "Splash Mountain" was based on. I thought it was the song, Zip a dee do dah -which I knew)

Am I the only one?

Sad to say, but I haven't seen one of these movies.
But I do remember the family gathering around the TV on Sunday evenings to watch The Wonderful World of Disney. Such great memories.

Not to make things worse, but here is a complete list of Disney movies.
Go thru and see how many you have not seen or even heard of.

You can even cut the list down to just animated movies.

Wow, things are worse. That is a long list of movies, and I have seen way below 50% of them. Then there are those that I have seen many times. When the kids were growing up, many several times a day. Funny to note, I am a big VW fan, owning many and have three right now, but have only seen one Herbie movie. And there will be a National Treasure 3?

Hello, thsi looks like a fun group, don't mind if I join ya! I am *almost* divorced, husband decided a 22 year old was more his speed (literally) and left DD7 and I about 3 months ago. I am going a little disney crazy, I now have a suprise trip planned in July! (in addition to cruise and trip in Oct)!

 

[bluedevilinaz]

Well it looks like I'm letting my Disneyland AP run out. I won't be back at the parks until later this year so I don't see any point in renewing it until then that way I'm not wasting 6 months of the AP just to say I have one. haha

 

[ahoff]

I was thinking the same thing, my AP is over in August, but don't think I will be back until October. As much as I would love to go down, airfare plus a room is not worth the $50 I will save on renewal. Plus I have too much going on during the summer. Are you still going to NY inJuly?

That was my thinking too. The $50 savings doesn't offset the gas and hotel costs for me to go. I sure am. I'll be there late afternoon July 29th through late afternoon August 1st.

I can't believe its Monday already....Welcome to the new folks. Couldn't check all day I had a trainee with me!

LOL...dag, thanks Tek. I realize now how bad things really are. And I really thought I was something with all the movies I did see...

Hey there... wow, Im sorry to read this, but so glad to have you here!! You sure we weren't married to the same guy? Sounds like a familiar story... anyway, I think Disney is the absolute best therapy... and the Singles Social club is 2nd best.

 

[LaLalovesWDW]

Where's our resident Pirate at??

Im being forced to watch Dora the Explorer on Nick Jr and its a pirates episode... which Piggy the Pirate and their adventures... funny, that I thought of him.

 

[DIS_MERI]

And there will be a National Treasure 3?

Although that list says it comes out sooner, IMDB has it slated for 2014. Still, it'll be interesting to see what they come up with as a premise for this one....

I'm so sorry to hear this. I was in a very similiar situation. Know that you are not alone. Although I'm new to this thread too, I think this is a great place to be.

Even the smallest step is a step in the right direction of healing. A big dose of Disney will certainly help, too!

Welcome to the boards- there's some nice folks here to get to know!

It's been a long boring night here. Beyond that, i'm trying to get an issue with my start date at work straightened out. They have me as starting in 5/2009, when I actually started in 9/2007. somehow things got screwy in the system and I need to get it straightened out so I get my extra week of vacation next year.

Sorry I wasn't around to entertain you, but a girl's got to sleep sometime.
I'm sure you'll get the job thing straightened out. Just remember the end result is getting another week of vacation! And what will you do with that???

Good morning! I'm doing great. I in-process for my job today, am throwing my buddy a bachelor party tonight(it's just the 2 of us so it'll be low key), and then I start work tomorrow morning/afternoon(hoping for the afternoon lol). I say get the donut! You only live once right?! haha. Have a great day everyone! I won't be back on here until sometime tomorrow.

Good luck today! And I did have that donut. So yummy!

It is mostly sunny, but very chilly here (it was 45 degrees when I woke up, brrr), I imagine its a bit warmer there

As for the donut, I have to wear a swimsuit in public next month, so no donuts for me for a while....but you can have one for me

I have to wear a bathing suit right now! It's summer down here with pools open and swimming lessons going on. I'm taking DS to a mommy and me class twice a week.

Interesting link. Even limiting the list to animated movies, there were quite a few movies I hadn't seen. Song of the South, Lilo and Stitch, anything with Tinkerbell (except Peter Pan).
