So maybe I'll get to see the Osborne lights this year.

Jealous! My sister is a CM at Hollywood Studios and she said they're starting to put them up. I love the Osborne Lights.

I'm super tired right now but I just want to say I visited a friend in Houston last year and the Galleria is one of my most favourite malls I ever walked around. It was only a 10 minute walk from my friend's place and my credit card got hit hard. I love the Cheesecake Factory and Ralph Lauren, among many stores.

I normally don't want to bring up my personal life, but I managed to land a very good job last week. I lost my job back in July, so I was out of work for three months. It was a rough time, but I managed to make the most of it, including a miracle trip to DL. When they offered the job to me, I asked them if I could take a few days off in January so I could run the WDW marathon. My new boss didn't care and encouraged it. Now I get to plan my next trip!

Cheesecake Factory...yummy...

And congrats on the job!

Thanks guys! I'll share that tomorrow. We'll be doing it here in Tucson but we'll probably be doing WDW for our honeymoon. We'll see what money says though.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Well, Brandon and I went to Food and Wine yesterday and had an absolutely fabulous time. We can recommend the lamb chop in Australia, but not the potato salad they serve with it, The lettuce wrap in South Korea, The Goulash soup in Germany was to die for, the cheese fondue at the cheese booth was just okay, at Hops and Barley we had the lobster roll, that was yum. . .the last food of the day was the Belgian waffle, that was killer. Overall a good day. We were too full to continue on to Ireland for the lava cake and Fishermans pie. . . we did have them the last trip. Will start there next time. We had a blast. Went on Mission-Space orange team before hitting up the food booths and did not put our heads against the headrest as recommended, just for fun.

Love the lobster roll. Had it both days I was there.

Big news from my corner of the world--my mother is moving to Kissimmee. She closes on her condo at the end of Oct, and I'm flying down over Thanksgiving to help her settle in.

So maybe I'll get to see the Osborne lights this year.

Had a dinner function last night; ended up helping cook all afternoon for 120 people and then helped out serving, and then helped clean up. And I had paid for a ticket, lol. I did get to eat, too, at least Today we are doing a family thing with "extended family" (ie, people I'm not actually related to, but love like family): fishing and a bonfire. Should be a blast. I'm thinking I may win the prize for smallest fish, given my luck on the last fishing trip

Yay! Congrats! I think we may have as many non-singles as singles on the SSC Very happy for you (and everyone else that has found someone special to spend time with)

New clothes rock! Especially off the bargain rack I have 2 weddings to go to next weekend and I stopped at the mall Friday to find something to wear; found on okay shirt but headed over to the clearance racks and found 3 shirts I loved for only a buck more than the okay shirt would have been. So I had something new to wear last night *and* something new for each wedding next week

Being unemployed sucks, congrats on finding a new job!

Super jealous! But, sounds like a great time Wonderful that you are getting these great times with your son before he has to head out for boot camp.

Awesome! (And, another person to add to my jealously list, lol)

Hey! I really like your new pic!

Don't know if this is the are to post. But thought why not. Any Jacksonville or even Orlando/Kissimee DISers here? I would love to have a park buddy when I go on random weekend trips!

Not me, but there are some who post here...

I see quite a few central-florida DISer's on lately. I'm sure someone will chime in.

Tough loss for the Jag's today. Was really hoping they'd knock off the Steelers (Browns fan here)! Oh well. Tough night for the Brownies too! Ugh.

I am having a ball with him. It has been great.

Personally, I think the mall that I've been too that has been the most drool inducing has got to be the King of Prussia mall. When I win the lotto, I expect a large portion of my winnings to end up being spent there.

definitely jealous.

And i have this funny feeling you are going to end up having it again when you come down in 4 weeks.


It's kind of ironic that my first time experiencing F&W, I'm practically opening and closing the event.

We actually have quite a few Central Florida peeps in this group. I'm sure you could find yourself someone to hang out with.

Yay for a new ticker!

Speaking of tickers, only 11 days left until my trip. Also found out my personal day was approved today.

 

[evildiva]

Been seeing posts for this on the singles thread, figured I'd stop by to say hi. I'll be in the World in 5 days! Anyone in the Baltimore/D.C. area?

Awesome news! I booked my flight today for my Dec trip, price was right plus I had some travel vouchers so I feel like I got a great deal, more $$$ for Disney!

to the group! Pull up a stool and pour yourself a drink. Our resident bartender is a little busy at the moment and we haven't yet filled the back-up bartender position.

I think in this thread we have a couple people from the Northern VA area. There are also several of us from the Central PA region just to the north of Baltimore.... plus a several more up in the NJ, NYC, and CT areas.

AWESOME!


Ya know... With such a great deal, you may even find another trip in November almost doable. now if only you knew how to get a cheap place to stay.....

Don't forget all us rockin' chicks in TX! November is my birthday month, tempting as I do have one last travel voucher, but I am low on vacation days this year after all my crazy adventures...

How could i possibly forget all the rockin chicks in TX?! especcially with the rockin'est one of all being down there?!




Hmmm... well even if you don't make the entire week, why not come down for a weekend? (and maybe a couple more days depending on how many vacation days you have left)

you have a choice... Join me on the 5th, 6th, and whatever you can manage over the week....

OR....

I'm picking up my on the evening of the 10th from MCO....

 

[jagfanjosh3252]

Taramoz...You are beautiful

 

[DIS_MERI]

Hey! I really like your new pic!

Thanks! I wish I could have cut it sooner (instead of enduring long hair for Disney in June), but it was nice to be able to give an 11" ponytail to a child with hairloss

Popping in to say hi, I made a new ticker and wanna see it!

Jealous! (kind of a theme here with me, lately, lol)

I know DisneyDaveCT is in that area, and as DC mentioned there are several in the NJ/NY/PA area as well And, again, jealous that you will be in WDW in 5 days!

DC, I see you are priming yourself for your new career as a used car salesman

Well... I did work in Customer Service/Tech support at one time, and often those jobs "required" attempting to upsell something to a customer. I became quite skilled at giving good phone.


BTW... Gotta agree with the . Great new profile pic.
