The ABC's of Trip Reporting- PLEASE JOIN US ON THE NEW THREAD!

[that's nice]

WHAT THE HE**?? I open my thread and see that it has gone AMUCK!!!! AMUCK I tell you! I see a fat dude sticking his hairy gut into some poor lady's face- I think I just threw up a little coffee in my mouth!! Probably because I'm laughing so hard.

Yes... all he** has broken loose over here!

Yeah, I saw how much you all missed me- throwing up nekkid men pictures!! Well, there's only so much money to do that. I'd rather spend my money on a trip without him, so I don't have to listen to the whining the whole time.

I didn't post any naked men... it was ROSIE!

Just to let you know... there are pics floating around of some weird guy whipping himself over on Kathy's PTR.

Mike was offered a job last night in Vista, California. He has an interview up here in Oregon, but an hour and a half from Salem (one way!), too. soooooooooooooo, this whole move we're doing now, is certainly tenuous! If you hear I have been checked into the nuthouse, you'll know why.

WOW... good for him! I hope everything works out.

Mr. Quotations.......Mr. Quotations.......Mr. Quotations.....QUOTE!
Hey, I never saw anyone recording that!!! (oops.........)
Nah, he was just giving the male version of the Liesa greeting!!!
Hopefully you weren't thinking that you checking into a nuthouse would be a newsflash to any of us!!!
Regardless of where it leads you, having choices is never a bad thing! I know you will find the perfect fit!
A man without a shirt???
Hey, if we can survive all of your "feet" pictures......

Marv.... along with Rosie, you are on a roll tonight too!

 

[Poolrat]

We should start a support group, for spouses of Disney haters.

I think in one way or another... this is it.

Resistance is futile!
(Where's Mr Quotations or whatever his unofficial title is?)

I can do TV. Star Trek: Next Generation.

And I have a confession to make as well. I'm not a huge cheesecake fan at all. One piece about every 6 months is enough.

As for cheese cake ... my wedding cake was a cheese cake. The Poconos had a great Cheesecake factory, not THE cheesecake factory but a little shop called the cheesecake factory and awesome cheesecake. One of the easier wedding decisions I made.

That shrimp looks amazing. I know what I'm eating the next time I stay at POP. YUM!!!!!!!

I love your new pen.

What - no toothbrush picture?

Love the CM pic. Hey - it might have been a business call - you never know!

 

[All7OfUs]

Just wanted to let you all know I'm alive- barely. I think I had a mini-aneurism when my internet stick went a'missing temporarily in the move today. My clothes can stay in boxes for the rest of the month as far as I'm concerned, but that usb thingy almost caused major problems in my well-being. Hyperbolically speaking.

If I had a working camera I'd give you a mini-photo tour of my new digs. I'll have to ask my FIL if I can borrow his- may as well, all our Christmas pix are on there as well. Anyway, close your eyes, and listen....

Hear the sound of rain on our brick patio? How about the frogs croaking down by the river? We have several very large oaks that the wind is rustling through, and the dogs that poop on our lawn daily are barking. And here's a sound I'll have to get used to: kids' footsteps pounding from the upstairs. Odd! I've never lived in a 2 story house before. Now how's this? If you listen hard enough, you might hear the hum of the jacuzzi right outside my bedroom door. The thermostat is not working, so it doesn't get above 95, so that will have to be taken in this week, but you know what sound I love the most?? The quiet of the country. This place is quite rural- much more so than I've ever lived. And I guess one sound that goes with rural is the bleat of a goat the crowing of a rooster- I'll let you know when we get those. Could be sooner than you think.

Sounds nice... For me the sound of rural living is a train. We live at the end of the street and have some pasture/wooded area just past us. Somewhere past that are some train tracks - the way the sounds echo around in the little hills and valleys, and off the trees sometimes it sounds like it's coming through the side of the house, and other times it sounds miles and miles away I told you I have never lived more than 12 miles from where I started,....well, the town I live in now is population about 300, the one I grew up in was 500. So you living in the 'Stans, or those DISers who live in the cities - both are pretty foreign concepts for me.

That sounds truly lovely. I'm sick of city life!

Forgot your toothbrush?! Bummer. I not only remembered my toothbrush, but I packed an extra one. It was by accident though, I had bought a travel toothbrush set, with floss, mini toothpaste, mouthwash and brush the whole nine yards, I had bought it months before my trip and packed it...months before my trip, then the day of my departure I completely forgot about my nifty new toothbrush set and packed my everyday toothbrush. But no worries, my forgetfulness came in handy as Lo had forgotten her toothbrush and I saved her fifty some odd dollars by giving her my old one....Just kidding!!! LOL! I gave her the new one.

I love my kooky pens, my Mom bought me, Mickey, Donald and Goofy, I use them at work and color coordinate them with my outfit.

I have learned from you to carry my journal with me in the parks and write when needed. I usually just journal at the end of the night but I know great stuff gets left out, even now I look back at my TR and realize I have left out important stuff from day 1. So on my next trip the journal becomes part of me.

And last but not least, I am going to try the Shrimp Lo mein. It looks tasty.

 

[englishrose47]

Well I see everyone enjoyed my naked Bus Man !!!Tomorrow I meet up with Jen, Bubba and Yuki!!!I have my outfit all picked out !!Hopefully by Monday pix will be up!!!!

 

[jenb1023]

How's this for a Horrific Disney Bus ride

That is funny and scary at the same time!

I thought she was talking about Mark.... but that title can fit for you too Glen since you did win the contest and all!!

I was talking about Glen - see this is why I have to read all the banter on the links so I know what is going on!

With as much as you've already had, maybe it won't even be gone!!! How do you get rid of 2 feet of snow in a week? or even a month for that matter!? I know you're going to have such a fantastic time!! You've waited a long time for this trip!

But my ultimate heart's desire is to take my kids again. That's why I want to work this year some. To earn enough to get my kids there again.

Actually, we've only gotten a few inches here in Central PA. CT and MA have gotten hammered. But they are calling for snow on the 22nd!

You are kidding! He actually suggested it!? WOW!! And then had to "talk you into it"?? I'd fall over and probably break my neck if mine ever did that!! Here I am trying to train for a half (or part of one) just to have an excuse to go back!

I mentioned the free dining deal but said we should probably not spend the money because there is work we want to do to the house and he said just book it! I almost fainted!

Mike was offered a job last night in Vista, California. He has an interview up here in Oregon, but an hour and a half from Salem (one way!), too. soooooooooooooo, this whole move we're doing now, is certainly tenuous! If you hear I have been checked into the nuthouse, you'll know why.

Yeah, but I really , really don't want to move to California- although the opportunity of getting an AP for DLR sounds mighty nice!

So glad Mike has a job offer but CA -yikes! I keep hoping/praying life will settle down for you guys. Though you are right about the DLR AP!

Just wanted to let you all know I'm alive- barely. I think I had a mini-aneurism when my internet stick went a'missing temporarily in the move today.

If I had a working camera I'd give you a mini-photo tour of my new digs.

Glad you are alive and that you found the internet stick! I would love to see pics of your new digs! Sounds peaceful and relaxing - just what you guys need!

Well I see everyone enjoyed my naked Bus Man !!!Tomorrow I meet up with Jen, Bubba and Yuki!!!I have my outfit all picked out !!Hopefully by Monday pix will be up!!!!

Have a great time Rosie! Any pole dancing planned?

 

[jenb1023]

No one has posted since I did at 9:00am this morning!

Did I just kill the thread that will never end and never die?

 

[All7OfUs]

I am here- but only sort of. Sunday is usually my day off of hte computer, and I have approximately 3 zillion boxes still to unpack. All while listening to the kids bicker about how their room/s are going to be set up. I hope I can have at least a little time to write my next update though!!

 

[MaryAz]

New place sounds really nice!!

 

[eandesmom]

Well, instead of bare skin contaminating you, it's a thick cloud of BO. Other than that pretty much the same gross-factor.

Now here's something interesting!!!!! NEWSFLASH!!

The major downfall of two stories. That and the sound of plumbing...

Ugh! I hope you can steal away for some quiet time.

 

[maroo]

Do you guys all hate me?!?!?!


I am sooooooo sorry I have been MIA from this here TR!



I have had a small crisis in the TR department...which will be the subject of my C post...which will be up tomorrow rain or shine! No matter what! I am trying to include a couple of pictures...and such...and tomorrow will be my first night off in a week.

And unfortunately you may have to wait a little longer for Mary's post...

There has been tragedy and drama in her world- nothing life or death related, but definitely has EVERYTHING to do with this TR!!! I'll let her explain!

yeah...well...

I can say that I am now typing on a new computer...and leave it at that for now.

To a place where friends are waiting to give you warm hug on a hot day

They are always ready with a sexy, alluring smile.

This is the place where you are invited to become part of the story; where stars are born and made!!!!
And that dame ain’t the only one who was born for fame; for today:

Can you guess who that was??

Let me show you that a little closer… in case you missed that I was even assigned a personal film crew for my day as a budding star:

My Hollywoodland was established in 1928 (the same year my colleague, Mickey Mouse, made his debut in Steamboat Willie), and when I entered, I was immediately transported to a bygone era of glitz and glam. Surely today, was MY day to be the shining star my alter-ego has always wished to be.

Every star needs a sleek and expensive set of wheels, and I quickly chose this one to show off my nice hot pink Crocs before finding the most exclusive place to stay at for a short time.

But first, there was work to do! My first Starring Role was contracted here, and was actually not in the film industry, but rather the more lucrative radio business with this outfit:

Of course before I stayed at the most swanky place in town, I had to get outfitted in duds only radio and movie stars could be seen in- This place oughtta do it:

Isn’t the façade of my personal couture pretty?? In fact, everything on Sunset Blvd. was beautiful, in an Art Deco sort of way, during my tenure as a Star. They told me to come back later in the week to pick up my new wardrobe, so I kept on. Nearing my destination, I found a few chic places to nosh with my fellow stars. Unfortunately, my schedule was packed and I just couldn’t fit any of them into my busy day:

Hurrying onward, I made my way over to where my accommodations were waiting; reservations at this place aren’t easy to get! In ALL of Hollywoodland, and in fact in ALL of my good friend and fellow Star, Mickey Mouse’s, Kingdom he calls Walt Disney World, this is my favorite place to visit- it’s simply “A Scream!”

 

[glennbo123]

What a starlet you are. But what paparazzo took all of those pictures of you? Random park guests?

 

[All7OfUs]

What a starlet you are. But what paparazzo took all of those pictures of you? Random park guests?

So, you don't believe me that I had my own photography crew to capture my most starring moments???

 

[that's nice]

Do you guys all hate me?!?!?!


I am sooooooo sorry I have been MIA from this here TR!

I can say that I am now typing on a new computer...and leave it at that for now.

NO Maroo... we don't hate you!!!

How R U liking that new computer of yours?




Liesa... beautiful pictures from the Studios! I like the guy down on one knee taking your picture!

Did you even ride on ride or was being a Diva too much fun?

 

[Sleepingbooty]

Going back to read "D", but first

Would anybody like a peanut?

I do so very love that movie!

In my top ten of all time. Maybe top five.

I'm so glad you used the word "rendezvous".

Could have been worse. She could have used tete-a-tete

Or as apparently it's also known as...

The Ditch.

Which seems pretty self explanatory to me!

the Ditch was one of the best moments of my trip too!

Ah, so that's the "ditch" you have been referring to on your PTR

How's this for a Horrific Disney Bus ride

That is too awesome for words.

Mike was offered a job last night in Vista, California. He has an interview up here in Oregon, but an hour and a half from Salem (one way!), too. soooooooooooooo, this whole move we're doing now, is certainly tenuous! If you hear I have been checked into the nuthouse, you'll know why.

Oh wow. Well, just remember He has a plan! So stressfull, I know.

Now how's this? If you listen hard enough, you might hear the hum of the jacuzzi right outside my bedroom door.

Wait, wait, I think I hear it! Ah, yes. VERY relaxing.

 

[Sleepingbooty]

Love that you can see "your photographer" in the window - he's really getting into it too - getting down low to frame the shot just right!
