Something About Nothing #3..........

[coastermom]

Dear Lady Mac,
Hope you are having a wonderfull time. We got a kegger going for this weekend here at the house. Maybe We can get Van Halen to play Call when you land, so we can start cleaning up. and homies, if you puke, YOU clean it.

PARTY !!!! YES I am always down for a good party with loud music .

OK FINALLY IT IS SPRING !!! But it feels like winter here in Staten Island . The wind is so bad it is blowing everything around .

I have to say it has been a little stressful here . DD chrissy who is going to be sweet 16 has gotten a gift from her "boy Friend" . they are dating a month now and he get her a little necklace with a small diamond heart on it. A little much for my taste but DH says that she can't give it back and the kid does work for his own money so what is a mom to do ?? I am getting nervous that it is too much too fast . They only get to see each other in school and well once a weekend either at ice skating or the mall or another group activity . I have to say his parents are divorced so he is only around once every other weekend . SO am I being too crazy over this or not ladies and gents.??

I am off to do a scrapbook page and then the other two will come home form school and then it is dinner and maybe I can get back on the computer . I have been looking to book two vacations one to SF in New England and one to Bush Gardens in VA. The hotels are so hard to figure out near SF in NE anyone know the area ? Be back later .

I am done trying to explain tht I did not post one sided.......but rather posted in defense of Uni being ripped to shreds so the OP won't WANT to try it......whatever. What I really want to say will get me a warning or banned. Staying inside the box now

Yeah I posted too but just be careful ya don't want that

not eddie, he'd be too busy draining the keg to play

Thanks to all the homies who posted!

see what u started

Quote of the day from the paper “Don’t you wish the beginning of Spring meant the end of Winter?” Flying out for Boston tomorrow (leaving later this afternoon to drive down to Milwaukee). Forecast for Milwaukee tomorrow unfortunately is 4-8 inches of snow. Um – it’s SPRING! We know – Penny told us so! Hope we still make it out on time. The hourly forecast is just snow showers until it’s supposed to start in earnest mid-morning. Our flight is at 7:30 so crossing my fingers we’ll get out ahead of it. Mac – aren’t you glad you’re missing this? Threw a small snow shovel in my car to dig the car out when we get back!

Everyone have a great Easter and spring break (if this applies to you!). As I said earlier, I’m not sure how much internet we’ll have anywhere. I’ll check in if/when I can!

!

have fun, make a snow man for me (make him hot!)

WOO HOO Glad I checked in - don't want to miss that.

you're alive! did you get snow this am, ours is now melted

off to read the other thread, it should be good

best buy seems to have misplaced DHs 50 inch tv; easy to understand since it's so frickin big!!!!!! supposed to call them back @ 5 to see

A) if the truck arrived (the one that was supposed to be there @ 11 am
B) if it's on the truck, of course they don't do mainfests or track by computer...they record it as they unload the truck (how low-tech is that?)
C) said truck will get unloaded "if the kids that are scheduled show up today"

So I call corporate & they tell me, yep-that's the way they roll . Best part, when i asked the agent to check & see if they still have them in stock, she checked & said "no...2 are in transit..." but, they have no way of knowing where they're going.

wonder how long of a lead time i've got to cancel the directv service call for tomorrow before i get a cancellation fee

Ya, cleaning up puke is so much fun! Cyberpuke is much more enjoyable though.

I have to say it has been a little stressful here .

That is a lot in such a short time of dating. Don't know what to tell you though. They are only together at school and it groups so if he wanted to spend the money then I guess it is okay.

And hey you guys – ALL 3 of my boys missed the bus this morning! No, it wasn’t because they weren’t up, but because they were just screwing around and weren’t paying attention. I had to drive them all – not the best morning for it since I had a zillion things to do and am working from 9:30 – 3 so we can leave. Wasted 20 minutes of my critical time.

Everyone have a great Easter and spring break (if this applies to you!). As I said earlier, I’m not sure how much internet we’ll have anywhere. I’ll check in if/when I can!

Boy - it took me a zillion times to post this. The site kept telling me I wasn't logged in. When I'd sign in, it would welcome me, then as soon as I hit reply, it would tell me to sign in again!

Have a terrific time!

Well I had a break from bball. Gotta run back to the field now.

Right...it's not worth getting in trouble over.

and posted and posted and posted

 

[RVGal]

I posted again. Couldn't let the "disappointed" guy seem like he had all the answers. Had to spin it back to the fact that he was giving his OPINION on his experience... and it was an opinion that I didn't share. I'm playing nice, so don't worry.

DH made a nice dinner for us....don't know what it's like to smell dinner cooking when ya walk in the front door (it was very nice!) Grabbing karate stuff now and checked in here and just HAD to check out the post everyone was talking about...and, well...ok. I posted. I didn't read past the 1st page, but I went straight to the source (my Bubba) Anyhow...by the time I can come back and read it all, it will be 'out of date'

Off to karate class....then home to workout...again...sigh.....

Have a nice evening all



if i get too much further behind, will have to steal one of Jodie's 'free pass' thingys

I think we should start answering all questions posted about universal with just a yes or a no since we always seem to get in trouble from someone.

 

[GemmaPixie]

GUYS!!!

HELLOOOOOO how is everyone!??! Missed me?? Just got home a few days ago and have had internet trouble recently.

Saw that the old thread got closed...why? Internet got caught out before I could read why. And since when are we on the 3rd one?? You guys are good yackers!!

Im home for easter now until the 1st April and then I start my new job in Liverpool on 7th April and working full time over summer (no holiday for me this year...boooo)

So....tell me the gossip!!

Sheesh. . no kidding. . .but I never would have learned anything if you guys would have done that when I started asking questions. 'Course I never would've gone over THERE to ask questions anyway. Had no intentions of every going over there, till you guys made me I usually don't post anything except around here because. . .here's my deep, dark secret now, and you guys can't hate me for it. . . I dislike Disney with a fairly good passion. After our last trip, I wanted to set traps for that little mouse! He lied to me. . .there was no magic. . . just big, long lines and bigger expenses. It wasn't just me. . . we had all 6 of our kids and half of them were not impressed either and wanted to go back to the hotel early afternoon each day. Not so at Universal or SeaWorld. They LOVED those places and what I posted over THERE on the current hot thread was true. . . my kids wanted nothing to do with any of the Disney parks this time around. DH wanted to go to MK, but when we looked at one day ticket prices, he was like forget it! So now you know my secret, which will get me lynched if anyone outside this thread finds out You guys all posted so eloquently. I was thinking it is too bad the OP didn't come here and post

Hey. . . you're back Everyone sure has missed you!

 

[GemmaPixie]

Thank you! I've been super busy in uni! Got so much coursework to do and exams...dreading them!! Is this friggin degree even worth it?? I wish someone would just give me £10 million and I would travel the world until I ran out...yeah...I like that plan!

 

[yankeepenny]

look who the cat dragged in! welcome back Gemma!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[bubba's mom]

GEMMA!!!!

I believe you were to be CHECKING IN with us

We moved cuz the DIS runs too slow with so many large threads...once we hit 250 pages, we gotta move

Good to see ya....and YES...the degree IS worth it Hang in there

I have a question!

can i pool hop at Uni if it gets hot at the parks while wearing a white tank and using healies and sipping out of my 1996 dis mug?

 

[GemmaPixie]

Sorry I haven't checked in...very sorry!! But when I've had internet (not that often) I've been freaking out doing coursework and no time to play.

Tell me the Universal gossip...I'm way out of the loop. Have they built a new ride? Park? Celebrated it's first birthday? It's been toooo long!!

One thing I don't understand about is post is he says the shows are outdated and there us nothing fresh, thus his complaint. Then later he goes on to say they should bring back Kong and did he mention BTTF too? Okay which is it? Do you want the old stuff or new stuff? Make up your mind already!

I really want to respond to that guy but I can get ugly quick. It is that motherly instinct to protect. That is why I hang here. I have had a couple of run ins on the DVC board. Fortunately the mods agreed with everything I said and just asked me to remove it and I didn't get any points. Now I just try to not respond to anyone that I know can set me off.

Hi Gemma! I am so glad to see you. I figured you would be home for the holiday and hoping you would stop in to see us.

They are now closing any threads that are 250 pages long. It was determined that the mega threads were causing the boards to run slow. Don't know what is causing it now that the big threads are closed. Anyway it took us a little over a month to close down our second home. Now we are on #3. Just think if you had been around we would have done it in less than a month.

I thought you were going to stop in at the library from time to time to let us know you were okay. You have been very bad.

Yes it is worth it. I wish I had tons of money to share with everyone so we could all just travel the country. Hang in there.

OH MY GOODNESS! GEMMA'S BACK!!!



Mac is in Hawaii and Gemma is home. Could we find a way to have everyone here AT THE SAME TIME? Hmmm? I'm just saying that would be nice for a change.

My house is reasonably clean and so am I. I am, however, freaky tired. Do I need to go check the other thread again or do you guys have it covered?

 

[GemmaPixie]

HAWAII!! Not fair!! I wanna go!! Always wanted to go to Hawaii! And Bahamas.
