[Lady Lallie]

Yep...I found it. Hulu Rocks!

I found this on the trip reports board and have read the whole thing and your last trip report.
So i thought i would say hi!!

Hi, I'm glad you are here!

you wish!

Luckily we didn't have a .....ok, this is pathetic.I can't think of the name of the device that "records"........anyhoo, we didn't have one yet.

I guess my parents thought why bother..my hair was so huge not all of me would fit in the frame.

So could you just post a picture of yourself from that era? I'd love to see some big hair!

Well, the 'head nut' has also been out scaring folks on other people's TR's, too.
He made Page 11 a scary place to visit.
I told him I was telling you.
He called me a tattle tale.

I think it was 'tatle tale' actually.

I'll have to speak to him....
Well, you know, it will do no good, no good at all.

I LOVE Debbie Downer! Did you ever see the skit with her, Lindsey Lohan, Jimmy Fallon and Amy Poelher, when they are at a character meal in Disney?! It was HILARIOUS! They were also all cracking up breaking character but let me tell you...FUNNY!

I have seen that skit. I love it when they get tickled during a performance.

Well yesterday was quiz day!! The one thing that I do miss about being a high school teacher is all the really fun things you can do because we are on such a tight schedule with their FCAT...I would love to do elves of course I'm not sure how my "teenagers" would react to that LOL!!!!

However I have some fun things planned for next Friday if I don't take off so I'm looking forward to that!! Keep sharing about your classroom though, my inner elementary teacher can live vicarously through you!!!

I actually have a couple of 2nd graders that are nay sayers. I called them out in the hall and told them to knock it off!

How exciting! Can't wait to see how the points end up being used. Are you calling today?

I did call today!

Wow! This thread is like a horse race in and of itself -- four pages in less than 24 hours.

What did Member Services say, Wigd, when you called?

I called today during my plan time. My team mates didn't understand what a critical conversation it was. So they made noise while I was trying to concentrate! I messaged Shocker and had him call.

Camcorder, maybe.....

I'll bet that was it!

Anita - can't wait to hear what you find out about the points today!!

I'll spill the beans in just a minute!

Ooooooo!!! Did ya get 'em? Did ya get 'em?

We do own more points, so we got them.....

If you do get to stay, will it be through January 1? You could join the NYE DIS meet!

I would be soooo tickled to be at the NYE DIS meet, but we can't stay that long even if it works out that we can use the points.

Oh goodness, that sounds awesome!!! I tried to find it on YouTube, but no luck!

It is so darn funny!

I found it!!

It's excellent!!


Debbie Downer in Disney.

You Rock Leslie!

Yay, LL! My DH and I just watched it -- we couldn't decide what was funnier, the gag or the fact that they couldn't keep character!!! Thanks for sharing!!

I love that skit!

I think both aspects are pretty darn funny. I was re-watching the clip and Marc came over to watch it with me again. The other one I love is Anne Hathaway playing Mary Poppins. I might have to see if I can find

that one too.....

Sorry Wigd, I'm highjacking your thread.

Highjack away, I love it!

Yep...I found it. Hulu Rocks!

Anne Hathaway as Mary Poppins on SNL.

Woo Hoo HULU!

 

[wigdoutdismom]

OK, so here's the deal.
I called today....
They don't have our new points in the system.
I didn't think they would, but I wanted to see if there was any studio rooms available.

At this point they are really full.
OKW and SSR has a studio available for the 25th/27th. That would have us flying home on the 28th.

We can't book anything though until the points are in the system.
By that time there might not be anything available....

It's going to cost us a couple hundred dollars each to change the flights.

Believe it or not, Baylor wants to come home with his sisters on the 25th....

So if anyone stays it will be Marc and I.

I have no problem with that.....

So still no final word!?

Did they say how long it would take the points to be in the system?

 

[winkers]

Ask, and ye shall recieve.....

I don't have one that early, but here I am at 13. My oldest sister's wedding

At 14

This next one is my graduation picture. I should send it in to ellen for her worst paid for photos...anyway at the time my sister was in beauty school and needed a victim...I mean "client".

So with all the intellegence of a gnat, between her and my mom, I ended up in the chair THE DAY BEFORE pictures. Well, I went from past my shoulders curly light auburn to this.......

When I saw these I about died but my mom made me send them out because they were paid for. I think all that shine on my face could have blinded someone. One of my uncles even called when he got the picture in the mail to make fun of me.



this is a few months later after the red fro was tamed a little. It would have been nice if the person taking the picture waited untill I was done talking.

 

[wigdoutdismom]

I actually think the points will be usable before we leave. Now it's just will there be a room available and a flight home available....
IF we use the points, it looks like we will only be able to get something for 3 nights.
That will leave some points, maybe enough for a couple of nights.

Marc and I using the points is still very iffy, very very iffy....

 

[jordanyosh]

I will refrain from making comments about your pix winkers...I could write a book. We don't have a scanner or else I'd give you a run for your money.

If I were you, I'd be dying of anticipation. Oy!

It would be really nice for you and Marc to have a few nights to yourself though!

And rounding the first turn we have LL/Jen ahead by a length.........

Cherie, you look like Molly Ringwold in those pictures, remember Sixteen Candles?

 

[wigdoutdismom]

I vote we chip in and buy Jordan a scanner....

It would be nice to have some time alone after the drama, but either way, I'm OK with it.
I will say though, I'm not one for a split stay, so much time taken to pack up.
BUT in order to spend more time in Disney I am willing to make the sacrifice!

And rounding the first turn we have LL/Jen ahead by a length.........

Yes it appears that they are in the lead!

 

[shannn]

I agree that Cherie looked like Molly Ringwald. I would have been soooo jealous of you in the 80s~ we all wanted that asymmetrical hair!

Anita, did you ever decide what you're going to do about the blankets for the cruise? Are you going to try and bring some? Or just hope they have some aboard the boat? This whole thing is getting more and more real now....

 

[winkers]

yeah...I seem to remember seeing a pic of you rockin' some sally Jessy glasses.

I vote we chip in and buy Jordan a scanner....

my scanner wasn't working when I uploaded those. I just took pictures of the pictures....hey, I rednecked my own pictures!

I'm not sure how the last one got in there...I must have been click happy?

 

[winkers]

Cherie, you look like Molly Ringwold in those pictures, remember Sixteen Candles?

loved that movie....I still think of John Cryer as ducky....I get a little confused watching him on 2 and half men.

...

While all my friends were getting perms I was wishing mine was straight. I was the only one in my family with red and curly hair, so I always stuck out like a sore thumb.

Do you remember "mall bangs"?

Anita, did you ever decide what you're going to do about the blankets for the cruise? Are you going to try and bring some? Or just hope they have some aboard the boat? This whole thing is getting more and more real now....

I'm planning to pack a fleece blanket that I'm leaving in the new purple locker. What do you think about bringing blankets? I guess we could call and ask if they will have any on the party barge...

yeah...I seem to remember seeing a pic of you rockin' some sally Jessy glasses.

That I need to see!

Loved them all!

Long Duc Dong.... remember him?
I love 2 and a half men.....

Man man man man manly men....woo hoo hoooo hoo hoo hoo

While all my friends were getting perms I was wishing mine was straight. I was the only one in my family with red and curly hair, so I always stuck out like a sore thumb.

I had a few perms, my hair just took right to them, it took forever to get relaxed....

 

[stitchaholic]

[Charleston Princess]

Anita, ugghhh about having to wait! Is it killing you? I would be a wreck!

LL, thanks for the clips -- I am still wiping the tears from my eyes -- I can't believe how much Anne Hathaway sounds like Julie Andrews.

Cherie, you do look like Molly Ringwald!!!

You work fast! I have some transparencies laying on the coffee table, I still need to iron them on....
Plus have to pick out some more DISigns for Harper and the big girls....
With a basketball tourney this weekend and next Saturday, I have no clue when I'm going to get it all done.

Anita, ugghhh about having to wait! Is it killing you? I would be a wreck!

It would be nice to know. We would need to make arrangements for the dogs to stay on longer at the kennel.
So when I allow myself to think about it.....
Well yes, it's driving me a little crazy!
This week has been busy at school, the kids are so excited this time of year so not much time for thinking while at work.
Well except I do think about my teaching!
Tomorrow is our Nutcracker field trip....

So from Friday on, I'll be trip obsessing.

A friend from Marc's school and my previous school is needing to find a home for her Goldendoodle.
It's adorable....
I said yes.
So as soon as we get home, he will be joining the family!

LL, thanks for the clips -- I am still wiping the tears from my eyes -- I can't believe how much Anne Hathaway sounds like Julie Andrews.

Weren't they great? I remember seeing the Anne Hathaway skit when it was on live. So darn funny!

Cherie, you do look like Molly Ringwald!!!

She sure does!

 

[Charleston Princess]

Awww, it's your turn to get a new dog for Christmas this year.

Have fun at the Nutcracker today!
