Something About Nothing..........#11

[RAPstar]

So I've pretty much gotten to the apex of everything that can ever happen to me as I got to see Bernadette Peters in concert today. She came into the audience during her encore song, and sang into my face. We made eye contact. Nothing in life ever will be able to top the happiness I've felt today. Well unless some miracle happens and I actually get to perform on Broadway, but that's highly unlikely.

I'm kinda glad it's over too. They left too many story lines open and I hate Misty being killed off. I thought Delia being the next Supreme was too obvious and someone else should have been in that role. The show started off so strongly but really died down near the end.

Yes I was sorry Misty was killed too, her or Zoe would have been my choice for supreme.

I know it's early but any rumours of what the 4the series is about yet?

What can I say.......I'm impatient



Up early today..........taking DH out today........I'm not really a shopper.......but I feel like going on a buying spree since I've been at home for over a week........

DH is going to love that

Yeah, this last episode was all about Carl.. Who needs to hurry up and get over his teenage angst. You would think with it being the zombie apocalypse and all that he would get over himself... Then again, he is just a kid so maybe it is all just growing pains.
I was happy to see more on Michonne's back story. I like her. In the apocalypse I would stick to her and Darryl like glue!
What I'm curious to know is if Judith is really dead. I noticed that the cars eat was unbuckled which gives me hope that she was saved.

 

[macraven]

carl is an awful actor.
hopefully he will bite the dust but i doubt that will happen.

they finally went back to the graphic novel for last nights episode. (in parts)
i have read them and like how the story moves in them.

carole, i read somewhere the next theme of AHS takes place in the 50's.
this was way time back so it might not be valid at this point.


it's monday.
it's cold.
ugh.

 

[Kogo Shuko]

How does AHS work??

Is each season completely different??

Is each season completely different??

characters have different lead and minor roles.
different theme/story line each season.

 

[xApril]

to xApril, feel better soon.

i know, we like to tease Bluer and some others on how they are snow-free.

i check the temps in different locations in florida frequently.
i have a brother that is roaming the state trying to find the ideal place to call home.
looks like lots of orlando has has some crazy temperatures!
that is tough on the floridians especially since they are not used to those low dips in climate.
hang in there xApril.....spring will come soon for youse.

i heard about beetlejuice show changing sometime back.
have a friend that wanted to try out for it.

can you tells us about the new show?
different songs, characters, theme?
i'm

Thanks!

It's high energy now and they added Cleo and the Phantom to the cast, along with four background dancers. Phantom has a twist - it's a girl. Her name is Phantasia.

Beetlejuice feels like he is not in the show as much now. No crowd interaction before the show sadly.

New songs include Let's Go Crazy, Sweet Dreams are Made of These, Smooth Criminal, What I Like About You, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, Walk Like an Egyptian, etc.

Pretty much all of the numbers are mash-ups of songs, so it's interesting.

It's definitely different. I miss some aspects of the old show, but this one seems to be a hit with crowds. I used to see people leave during the old show and I didn't see anyone leave during this one.

 

[macraven]

thanks homie!

 

[schumigirl]

Looking forward to new Beetlejuice........thanks April

mac........I think I read that too, but like you I`m not sure when I read it, could have been before this last series was announced.




Didn't get a lot of shopping done today....best laid plans and all that! DH started feeling bit dizzy, so headed home after 20 minutes.

So I cleaned all the insides of my windows.........that is a sucky job, and now I have a sore shoulder........I tried doing the windows with the steamer I bought but I prefer the old fashioned way......no streaks

Lasagne, salad, coleslaw and garlic bread for dinner tonight

Blah, finally had enough second guessing myself and decided to just do universal and Disney. 4 days at each (but only 1 and a half park days at Disney as of now). That way I can still put my AP to use and try out the new hotel and get my Disney (food) fix. Going to Artist Point and Jiko for sure, not solid on what I'll do for Epcot or MK, or it's surrounding hotels. So, yay, I think.

Yay indeed

It's nice when plans start to come together

morning homies.

i need a new computer.
this one is not cooperating now.

i also need Bluer to help me with my stupid Ipad (which i hate) that i have so i can stay connected here.

You need to make another trip down here to see us and Mr bluer can help you.

Hubs' computer finally bit the dust as well. It lasted a long time though.. He finally got his school money so he is going to buy another one soon. I would looove to have an iPad! I mainly use my iPhone to get on here or fb. I have reading apps on here too, but I'd love to have a bigger screen. Do you not like yours? Is it a pain to use or something? I don't actually know anyone with one, I have only read the reviews online.. So, we are supposed to have a heat wave here this week.. It might even get close to 50 degrees!! Might have to break out the swimsuit and shorts!

let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. Yep, Thursday is going to have 8 to 12 inches of snow, then sleet, then freezing rain, with expected icing up to a quarter inch. Fun indeed. Since we've been below freezing all week, the snow and ice from last week has yet to disappear. It's been a white start to 2014.

And to tease summer some more, just saw an advertisement for RC Cruiseline. They are partnering with USO, to do a land and sea tour. Spend some nights at USO, RPR, then take week cruise on Freedom of the Seas out of Port C. Hmmmm, that may be a someday thing. I'll have to see what the rates are and compare.

Mac, I hope your computer woes are fixed. I hate my ipad too. DD wants the Air one, but I am not buying it. Our older one shows videos and works fine. I do hate typing on it though.

For those who are ready for the storm that's coming later this week, stay warm!

And Shumi, I'll be over for dinner any night you're offering! My tween and teen expect me to cook dinner every night. Yeah, well, quick meals are my mainstay. Pasta and Stirfry.

Wicked is terrific - anyone that likes the Wizard of Oz will enjoy it. It ties together a lot of the loose ends in the WOO - like, where did the Tin Man, Scarecrow, and Cowardly Lion originate? Why were there two evil witches and one good witch? Where did the ruby slippers come from and why were they important to the green witch? The staging is really impressive, some of the best I've ever seen (up there with Cats and Phantom of the Opera).

We stayed over (a date night, sort of) at the Doubletree downtown, walked down to the Benedum since it's only four blocks from the hotel but got lost trying to find Morton's steakhouse - did not know it is off the lobby of one of the office buildings down there. About froze to death before we found it.
.

what a nice get-away!

yay, but you've got two months to go I too have the: fine-tuning of trip syndrome/hotel is always greener on the other side of Disney world & understand completely.

trip planning should be an Olympic sport

did I miss projections of yet a another storm? have been layin low since weekend, typhoid GD struck again via another cold.

re RCCL/Universal, they offered something along that line a few years ago. Priced it out and found the components cheaper to book separately, especially if you qualify for special rate (military, sr, resident, etc.)

Speaking of changing vacation plans and cruising

DH received snail mail from CCL yesterday. Almost shredded it without reading...

he was awarded a free cruise!thought it might be a scam but called and it was legit.

If anybody here has ever sailed on CCL, check your loyalty account or past guest number and look under special offers. It's been reported many who haven't received a letter are finding the offer in the accounts on the CCL website.

Worth your time to take a peek if the dates work for anybody (up to end of June, have to book by end of March). All you pay is port charges for inside cabin. We were able to upgrade for $80 pp...savings of over $2,400. Can't say I've been a CCL cheerleader leader but will give them a .

 

[schumigirl]

I don't actually know anyone with one,

I`m the opposite of mac........I love my ipad........I constantly have to charge it as I`m always on it. DH says its almost part of me now......

And Shumi, I'll be over for dinner any night you're offering! My tween and teen expect me to cook dinner every night. Yeah, well, quick meals are my mainstay. Pasta and Stirfry.

LOL........I`ll set a place anytime Lynne for you

I suppose I`m fortunate I have all the time in the world to cook....no little kids or tweens to run after and I still call myself a SAHM....... I don`t tell everyone our son is 20 now

It was a quick dinner tonight........DS wasn't due in till 8pm so no meal to prepare for him, and I am watching the Michael Dunn trial in Florida on DH laptop (saving my ipad battery) so when they broke for a bit I flung some stuff in the wok and heaped it on our plates........veggies were kinda raw and chicken was overcooked.....oops! Not my usual effort I have to say.

It helps I love cooking too from scratch



We had some snow today well, when DS came in he said it was snowing at his university which is 20-30 mins drive away.........he had to de-ice his car when he came out.

And there`s me ready for spring!

..........wow that is amazing!!!! Well done mr Keisha

Not everyday you get that kind of letter

yep, we're thrilled

appears to be no rhyme or reason who is getting the offer based upon discussions on other boards.

their image is rather tarnished, letter referenced DH not sailing with them for some time. Thinking that they need to fill their ships and hope to make some revenue on booze/gambling as well as throw out that 'goodwill' in attempt to lure back past customers.

just hope u don't see me on the news waving a sheet at the news copter from my balcony
