I have a question for you guys. I was speaking with a co-worker yesterday and they said they went to Kidani in June and when they checked in they asked for a room upgrade to one with a view and they were given one at no additional charge! I am ready to raise Fed's BS flag on this.

They showed me some pics but they were all close up so I can't tell where they were taken from. Have any of you ever received such an upgrade? :confused3

I wouldn't bank on it, but I definitely believe it.

You can request anything you want. Doesn't mean they will grant that request, but they will definitely note it on your reservation. If there is availability, and the request is reasonable, they just may drop you a bit of pixie dust. pixiedust: :wizard: pixiedust:

We still need some Dis Dad Nurses to help fill out the team. May have to recruit some from the Mom's side if we can't find any.


I'm in!

sign me up for the DisDad Emergency Medical team! As long as you have a fluoroscope for me to use we are in business!
 
Just had an Oh Crap ! Moment....I make a habit each night before bed of putting morning meds in a glass to easily and quickly grab. Well today I thought I had taken them all and then decided I needed a Diet Dew on crushed ice...well when I got to the bottom of the glass I turned it up and started chewing what I thought was ice.....ummm no....it was a Lovaza capsule!! Does anyone know how badly fish oil tastes mixed with Diet Mountain Dew??:crazy2:

Oh well off to work and another weekend of call.....found out yesterday that not only on top of our own call and covering the guy's who got fired a few weeks ago..another co worker is going to be off with a back injury for a while on workers comp and we will be covering her call as well!!! I hope that i survive all this!!!:eek:

Yikes! Any chance for part-time fill in help? Convince the higher ups that you need fill-ins. We've had success with the Weatherby locum tenens company. They will bring in credentialled physicians in a variety of specialties from around the country. And even if you don't get someone lined up for this stretch, having your hospital establish a relationship with one of these groups will help in the future. Lots of individuals work for these companies part time as ways to make extra money, too. Haven't done it myself, but I know that when the kids are in college, I'll have to! :scared1:
 
I think it's time for an afternoon snack.



Anyone want a Cheetos?

As I sit here wanting to eat some Cheetos, I am reminded that two weeks from today we start our Buffalo to Disney drive!!!
 
Pics or it didn't happen :lmao:

Yeah about that, I am kind of a Technological Troglodyte, when it comes to posting pics... will try after I get back... unitil then take it on good faith

Also Peanut Butter I has a shot of Beverly, yep it is just as bad as I remember. then took 5 min out of our plan to watch kids trick their parents into trying it.
 
I started browsing (OK, maybe 'trolling' is a better word) the HalosHeaven.com blog dedicated to the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim for some light-hearted ribbing of my team's divisional rival. I have been on and off on that blog for the last year. I normally would not be one to ask people to visit my rival's blog, but a recent post really touched my heart. One of the fans there posted an article about his wife getting diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's disease (ALS). I was really moved and had to make a donation to his fund raising for finding a cure.

If any of you are interested in the article, it is here. I am not trying to garner donations, but I think the story is at least worth a read. :confused3

I put in a good word for the DIS Dads club over there and told them I would pass the word on to y'all about the article.
 
Hilarious! :lmao::rotfl2::rotfl:

Hey, did you guys see that the Simply Segway "Tour" (which is really just an indoor class) has been closed? They are still offering the Around the World Tour, which takes you outside and around Epcot (and is awesome if you haven't done it!)

I plan to do that tour one day. It looks fun. I heard they stopped the Savanna tours at AKL. Any truth to that?

I've heard of people getting upgrades at different resorts, but I have never had one. I have asked for a different room location at DVC resorts and they honored my request, but not an upgrade.

I guess we could speed things up...

HA HA HA HA.
 
Just wondering:confused3 If you are a DVC member or have a AP, can you buy a meal plan or is it out of pocket, how does this work:confused3

DVC members can buy the dining plan. AP holders can buy the dining plan if they're staying at a Disney resort, but they usually get better value out of buying a Tables in Wonderland card and using that.

I couldn't find this info on-line anywhere. I'll let you know in a little less than 6 months!

Morning, Dave!

Good luck to Mrs. Know-it-all this am on her first 5K!

Sure is quiet here lately...back to school activities keeping us all busy, I guess!
 
Morning all!

Big day with my DD today. Giving her a day to herself since most of the past month has been about her new little brother. Highlight will probably be lunch at the Rainforest Cafe. Should be fun!


Hope everyone has a great day! :thumbsup2
 
Morning Gents....NCIS marathon on USA all day today! For those breaks between football games and the all in all Saturday go go that we all do.

FYI Season 9 of NCIS begins this upcoming Tuesday.:thumbsup2
