Something About Nothing.......#4

[Metro West]

Where did you live in VA? We lived in Richmond & I hated every 2nd of it. No offense to anyone who has or does live there.

I used to live in Charlottesville...for 37 years before moving here in 2004. I can't believe I waited so long.

BTW...I never liked Richmond either.

I guess I'll turn in too...have a good night everyone!

Goodnight Todd! You guys are making me yawn. Looks like I'll be going to sleep soon myself.

It can't be any worse than the Barney and Bob the Builder that I had to sit through!
Enjoy it while you can, my baby is turning 18 this weekend.....an d it's the first time I have not made him a birthday cake, his girlfriend wanted to make him one....

Spongebob is much better than Barney & Bob the Builder.

I think I'd have to tell that she gets her turn at baking his cake, after they get married. Tell her you'll talk to her about it again in 5 or 6 yrs.

tammy - we'll be splitting our time beween WDW & U from 10/18 to 10/23; then off on the Wonder for 3 nights

hate to tell you, BWV & BCV have been booked rather solidly (an isolated day or 2 here & there-nothing consecutive) from the day i started calling 7 months prior (i've got a waitlist thread going on the DVC misc. board for Oct). I just got the dates we needed @ AKV April 1st & know that WLV was booked also.

unless you actually rent a ressie (which members aren't supposed to post on rental board more than 60 days prior) or are willing to try & get OKW or SSR; I'd be more comfortable booking a standard room.

We too have enjoyed the DP got to experience it back in 2/05 when they 1st rolled it out-great value! Not too sure about it in it's present form though . Haven't decided if we'll pick it up in October since we'll be spending @ least 2 days @ U. Hoping they revamp it again to include the tip & give choice of appetizer OR dessert.

We've never bothered with the DDE since we liked the DP so well, may rethink that option when time to buy new tix/APs next year.

I was afraid we wouldn't be able to get BCV or BWV. Bummer! Oh well, I guess it's now option 1 or 3. Option 1 is looking better all the time.

Will you be at AKV your entire land stay? Do you have WDW tickets at all? I'm thinking we could really enjoy some F&W time. If not, we'll figure something out that works for both our families & Tricia's (& Sharon & Mac, if they're able to meet us). I really need to stop making plans to meet up w/ all my homies & get our trip booked.

We've used the DDE before, but never the DDP. I really don't know which would save us money. I figure we'll have to pay for appys & tip anyway. With DDE, we could get a discount on the appys though. The DDP looks like a great deal for some of the places we're considering, but not so much for others. Decisions, decisions.

i'll be at the motherland oct 2 and leave on the 9th for the darkside.

kewl to meet up!

You'll be there, before us. We'll just have to plan a day to drive over & meet you.

I used to live in Charlottesville...for 37 years before moving here in 2004. I can't believe I waited so long. BTW, we're almost the same age.

BTW...I never liked Richmond either.

Charlottesville is much better than Richmond. Although, I agree, I'd rather be here.

You're just rubbing it in their faces that you have the best trip planned. Bad boy!

hardly. i'll be lucky if i can afford my dinner at tschoup chop!!


ok, about to watch Sweeney Todd. If my room is in shambles later you'll know that, IMO, Tim Burton made a royal mess of my fav musical. If mac doesn't lock up, I'll do it before I retire, since I only ever sleep like 4-6 hours anymore.

 

[tarheelmjfan]

Well peeps, Tricia & Todd have convinced me it's bed time. No Barb, I'm not going to bed with either of them. I'll be going to bed with my hubby, like a good girl should. Goodnight all!

Awesome day today.

 

[Cdn Friends of Pooh]

A good day here and congrats on 10,000 Todd

... and here I was proud I had almost 2,000

evening all! busy day at work today (only one there from 1pm til close at 5). back home after wally-world and blockblister (finally gonna make myself watch Sweeney Todd so I can lose respect for Tim Burton ruining my favorite musical).

... I love Johnny Depp, but I'm scared to watch Sweeney Todd

What thread? I must have missed something. Sorry, if they're giving you a hard time Rob. Stay here! We won't let anyone pick on ya.

not me personally. here's the link: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1789120

i don't think he's a meanie. that, sadly, is just the state of the youth nowadays. i assume he's a youth by the statement, for all I know he could 46! heck, even gay ppl ive interacted with have said it. i say interacted cause I only have like 2 real friends that i talk to, both gay, both have never said it. it doesn't bother me that much, but I appreciate you and todd standing up for those on here that would be bothered by it.

... sadly there are a lot of people out there who judge others because they are different for whatever reason. I think you are right when you said it's the state of things nowadays. IMHO, we've been socialized to judge others since we were children (the kids we wouldn't play with during recess because of the way they dressed or because one of our friends didn't like them) and unfortunately stereotypes govern perception and behavior toward the person ... I'll get off my soapbox now

We arrive on the 7th and fly home on the 20th ...

put duct tape over that light and it won't bother you. that's what i do with my seat belt sign for the passenger.
i put my purse there and that sucker is so heavy the "fasten your seat belt" light comes on.

list your dates sharon.
i would feel awful if one of the homies was in orlando and i missed them while i was there.

Yes, let us know your dates please

Guess we can see who gets there first! Think I've been around a whole lot longer than you though. Didn't start socializing until this thread!

Tricia - when the kids get a little older, you'll LIKE that the Lego's have more steps. Longer to occupy the kids and they disappear for more time! Yeah, I remember building a few K'Nex's in my time, but at some point it switched to if there weren't about a zillion steps then it wasn't worth the cash!

For all the folks talking about VA, we lived in Virginia Beach (less than a mile from the beach) back in '86. Yeah, I'd take that again! We also hated Richmond, but the beach is nice. It's kind of cool in the winter when everything shuts down. A lot of the hotels are still open and we'd just go stay at them for variety for like $29 a night. Ah, the good old days!

Stephen and I did well garage saling today! We found a great church rummage sale - which usually have basically total junk. The stuff that you'd throw out rather than price at a garage sale. But we were in a nice area and there was a lot of nice stuff. All at 25 cents a piece! Got some nice Christopher Banks, Croft & Barrow, Pendleton, etc. sweaters for a quarter each. I bought a ton of sweaters and shirts for me and a bit for the kids. We were there a good hour, I had four paper grocery bags full of clothes along with a box and our total was $10. Some nice golf shirts for the guys as well. Can't beat 25 cents!

Next we went out to Olive Garden and used up a gift card we'd gotten for Christmas. Went to home depot to appropriate some Mickey Heads to make a countdown calendar for my friend who's going in July. A productive day overall!

Smooth & easy drive to work. Got to VIP a group of 5 when an 80 min wait was posted. Had many guests wish the next TM at my attraction "Happy Birthday." It wasn't anyone's b-day, but they had fun with it. Got the frames for my pics and printed them out. They look awesome.
