Something About Nothing.........#7

[RVGal]

It can't be as bad as when I had to take DS to see Inspector Gadget or George of the Jungle (although Brendan Fraiser in a loin cloth wasn't bad to look at).

Did I mention he already has the soundtrack? It's not the best of both worlds, trust me. Still I think Inspector Gadget is worse...George of the Jungle sounds bearable. Brendan Frasier was yummy...

George of the Jungle is one of those movies that I will gladly watch with the boys. Brendan Frasier ripped and mostly naked? Oh, yeah. We can watch that one. Over and over and over...

Afternoon everyone ...

I took a poll once among my friends when we were all in our mid 30s. Everyone I knew either skipped their Prom, or went and hated it. I decided that the whole concept of Prom is wasted on the teens, so I threw a grown up Prom. We rented a ballroom at a hotel, where we all got a room for the night. No awkward questions about who your date was going to be. No worrying about spiking the punch, as we had a cash bar. I had a DJ playing a good mix of (mostly 80s) dance music. I even hired a photographer to take pictures as the couples arrived, and had decorations I ordered from Stumps (one of the biggest Prom decor suppliers anywhere). We had a BLAST. Once I split up the cost, it was only about $30 per person. I've already got requests to do it again. I'm telling you, being able to dress up, dance, drink, stumble to the elevator and crash in your own room... without worrying about all the teen crap... Priceless.

Now that's an absolutely brilliant idea!!!! ... I usually end up being the designated driver when hubby and I go out anywhere, so when we went to the convention in Indy at the end of March, it was nice to have a few drinks knowing I only had to stumble to the elevator and go up a few floors to get to our room!!

Back from FL and not happy about it!

Only 2 months until the big day!

Not happy about being back from Florida or not happy about the big day???

bonny- it was between a mazda, near-mint monte carlo & charger. Mazda just too small after being used to a big 8 cyl engine, reminded me of riding a motorcycle...all those safety curtains still seen so small. My common sense made a rare appearance & i called insurance agent asking what the rate increase would be for each, and then again when near 16 y.o. DS gets his license...the gales of laughter when i mentioned a charger were disturbingno better for the challenger or mazda, settled upon the avenger...as sporty as we can muster with a jr driver im afraid

Everyone say a little prayer for me -- I'm taking ds to see the Hannah Montana movie today. I'm afraid, I'm very afraid...

... maybe it'll be better if you wear 3D glasses??? ... and don't forget the popcorn!!!

So...your son has a Hoover Hickey?

I try not too but it gets a little agravating when the receptionist keeps reminding me that I am way too young to have all them pulled but the way I see it is no more pain and no more worrying if one breaks and I swallow it

My mom was in her early 40's when she decided to do the same thing.

It truly was funny watching her relearn to talk--especially the S's.

"Sally Sat by the Seashore Selling Sweet Sh**" is what she ended up repeating all day.

Yupp Hoover Hickey--2 great minds think alike--that's what I told him it looked like.

Me and DD went to Hannah Montana on opening day with all of the little girls going wild--I think she was the oldest "girl" there. I actually teared up during the movie--it was sad. We both loved when her love interest took off his shirt--best part of the movie. Very nice for a teenager.

[donaldduck352]

Good morning all..Time for me to go to work..
Have a great day!!!

 

[keishashadow]

morning has broken...

i didn't do it

long week already, freakish spring weather...rainbows last night, snowflurries this am & supposed to have our 1st 80 degree day on Saturday

 

[marciemi]

Yeah, we're in the same cyclical weather pattern. 74 Saturday, yesterday and Mon highs in the 30's with steady rain and snow, supposed to be 81 on Friday and back in the 40's and rain for Sunday!

I'm the only one at work not off for the rest of the week . On the bad side, this means I have to work a full day every day insteat of my part time. On the good side, I still don't have any more work to do (other than phone calls), so I hope to get a new Disney countdown calendar done, catch up on emails, and do some trip planning!

Oh, and for those of you that this means anything to, Matt got his newest ACT scores back and got a composite of 35!!!

Got 36 Math, 36 Science, 35 English!!! (up from a 27 on his first attempt), and 33 Reading. So he's done! Not quite sure how he pulled the English out, but he's certainly not taking it again! Now to start focusing on the other parts of getting into an academy - more physical training, practicing interviews, essays. Oh, and he has AP exams coming up too, so that should keep him busy!

 

[Darcy03231]

Good morning everyone! 4 days and counting - we'll be checking into the HRH on Sunday I just checked and its looks like it will be sunny and warm all next week. I can't wait! I'm sick of the weather in NE. It just seems like its going to warm up and then we're back in the 40's again.

Now I just have to do laundry, get everyone packed, get the last minute stuff, and try to fit in buying 2 prom gowns before we leave. We're going to go out tonight and see what's out there. Wish me luck!

Good morning homies
