Singles Social Club: It's Always 5 o'clock here!

We are back on tires! Ugh...I go away for a few days and the darn tires are still the topic of conversation.

Ok, what would you like to talk about..

as DC said..Heels..???

 

[ahoff]

Car stuff is fine. Maybe we can talk about engines. I plan to take the engine out of my summer car and change a few things, bigger pistons and cylinders and a different cam.......

 

[ahoff]

Augie, next time you are in town we have to meet up for more than a passing "hello" as you leave the park. It seems like we always plan and the plans get sidelined. Anyway, hope all is well. . .restarting the couch to 5k cause I missed a week. . .(too many call shifts). Hoping to do a 5k during the marathon weekend. There are two open at the moment. Here's hoping they do not close before I decide to go for it. . .

Happy Halloween.

Yes, maybe a good place to meet would be Tune In!

Good luck with the CT5K!

Heh.... That reminds me... What do you guys think of these? i look this picture during the Boo To You Parade after the Diva started drooling...

I'm kind of curious to see what my car can do. I'm actually looking forward to a road trip to Disney (and other stops) next summer. It'd give me an opportunity to open it up a bit more than I can really do around here.

Good luck with the CT5K!

I've found that's the safest. She knows the way.... and the bartenders there will treat you right once they realize you know Darcy.

Hello all, I am chilling with a beer, a little tired after a late but fun Halloween last night. Hope you are all well, anything new?

Not much here.

I won a passholder contest at Universal so me "and a guest" could go to the Harry Potter Cast Q&A on Sunday 11/13 at Universal. Don't know if we are going to go or not. Depends on if the wants to or not.

Um.... I also decided today I'm going to spend a couple days while in Florida over at Kennedy. I booked a KSC: Up Close tour today which includes a guided tour of the inside of the VAB. That would be very cool since it's the first time it's been open to the public since 1978 (first time in my lifetime). I'm also debating doing the Cape Canaveral Then and Now tour. Since I'm looking to be down there most of the week by myself, Kennedy would be something different, and I haven't been in probably over 15yrs.

Cool about winning! You are leaving soon for your trip, right? I wish I was, work had gotten so busy it's been overwhelming. I need a break!

KSC is awesome, I've been there several times, we actually bought annual passes a few years ago, not sure what private tour we did.. but it was amazing, we actually stood on the launch pad where Apollo 1 burned.. very strange feeling..

Congrats on winning the contest! Would definitely take them off your hands if your lady didn't want to go.

Nice! Definitely take a ton of pictures! I'll definitely keep that in mind for when I head that direction in the next 2 years. I haven't done KSC since October 1996.

That looks like a neat tour! I'll have to look into that one too.

Congrats!! That is so cool. I hope you guys get to go.

Finally back after some 65 hours without power. Our clubhouse has a generator, so that's where the neighbors congregated making each other waffles, coffee and meals since Sunday morning. Nice to have the WIFI back, too.

hey there, other than tired, how are you ?

I bought a black Christmas tree tonight, so I guess that is new..LOL

BTW it is 3 day now

It is a wonderful feeling isn't it. I was without power for 6 days when Irene hit. I was one of the lucky one in CT with this storm. There are still 600,000 people without power and heat. There have been deaths related to CO poisoning and fires.


I have a question for the ladies??? I need to buy 2 dresses, the first is for a fancy 10 course dinner, and the second is for NYE. Where should I look for dresses? Also, has anyone had any luck ordering online. I have seen some really hot dresses online, but I am so afraid to order since I want to be able to try them on since I want it to fit perfectly. I figured since over the past several days we have had lots of tire and car talk we could talk dresses. So ladies, and gentleman if you have any ideas, please feel free to share .

I need to get ready for work...And since no one has said it I will....Happy Hump Day!!!!

For really fancy stuff--Lord & Taylor or Nordstrom. And it's not something I'd buy online unless it was from a label I knew fit me well!

Ill usually order from anywhere online that has free returns (like Nordstrom) that way you can try on a few things & return whatever doesn't work for you.

I wanna see the black tree!!!! Sounds cool.

 

[Mitzicat]

You may also want to try David's Bridal - if you have one near you or any local bridal store. Sometimes they will have last year's styles reduced for quick sale.

Nordstrom and Lord and Taylor are really good. If you catch a good sale at L&T you can get several dresses for the price of one! I think for a cruise I was able to buy 4 dresses for $120.00. I was so happy.

That looks like a neat tour! I'll have to look into that one too.

Heh... in order to use the prize, I need to present my AP and the winner's email. Not really something I can give away.

And the tours sounded interesting, and weren't very expensive. I figure why not check them out, after all, I'm solo, and since I tend to be the type who will check out everything when it's something cool that i'm interested in (SPACE! AWESOME!!), I don't need to worry about missing stuff or boring someone else while I look around.

I always seem to enjoy my time at IOA. It's a fun park.

Um...... I'd say if you do order online, make sure they have a good return policy in case it doesn't fit. Depending upon the dress style, I'm guessing if it doesn't QUITE fit, it might be something you could consider getting adjusted slightly.

NYE you still have plenty of time.... but what about the other fancy dinner? obviously some options may take more time then others...
