~ The Man Report ~ ~ Spilt Whiskey & Secret Carb Feast ~


Other than the two party nights LtP & I enjoyed, our evenings are all basically the same.

We were back in the room every evening no later than 7:30 pm. MB decided a few months back that he’s afraid of the dark so we respect that and make every attempt to get him back to our room before he turned into a werewolf.

Our dinners each night were scheduled around 5 pm. In the past, our dinners were always around 7 or 8 pm so this was a major change for us in our WDW experience.

This simple little schedule change turned out great. We were still on Daylight Savings Time so the sun didn’t set until around 8 pm or later and the Disney experience for MB was a lot more enjoyable. :hug:

Our children go to bed at 8 pm sharp every night of their lives. They don’t even really fight us about bed. We kept the exact same schedule for vacation. By the time we got home from dinner every night, the kids would watch a little Stacy on TV, get a bath, then hit the sack.

So what did LtP & I do every night after the kids went to bed? Good question!

Think hot, nasty lovin’ and you’d be close! :banana:

J/K :sad2:

Typically, LtP would be running around the little apartment filling water bottles, doing laundry, folding clothes, packing the backpack, giving baths, and keeping the place semi-clean.

Me? I sat my duff in the same exact spot of the loveseat each and every night, fired up the laptop, and DIS’d.

We brought movies and seasons 8, 9 & 10 of Friends so we had plenty to watch. Mostly I just listened to it in as I surfed these boards looking for opportunities to make funny comments.

Oh, and I also imbibed on a little wine or Crown each night as I relaxed. I gotta be me…

LtP and I love to snack so each night we’d have a little something-something to curb our “crunch” cravings. We’d gobble up some ZERO carb Pork Rinds and squirt some squeeze cheese on it. Another good low carb snack is to take pepperonis and microwave them until they were cooked and crunch then put squeeze cheese on those also. In extreme periods when we have nothing crunchy because we’ve eaten it all, we’ll just go straight to the squeeze cheese and squirt it in our mouths.

Of course, after our first full day in the parks, we were in no mood to end it by going to sleep. It was time for a little late night, in room, partying. :banana:

The first thing I did after filling my whiskey glass full of Crown Royal was accidentally knock it and spill it all over LtP and the couch. I received a good tongue lashing over that because I was using the arm of the couch to set it on instead of the table. Ooops! :rolleyes1

After LtP cleaned up the mess, we sat back, sipped our drinks and reflected on an awesome day. :cloud9:

She started to yawn… one after the other… and I knew her time was limited.

I was totally bummed. I didn’t want to stay up and party alone. That’s no fun. I wanted her companionship and also a target for my comedic jarbs. Since she went to bed, I had to Ninja-spam the DIS. What else was going to do? :confused3

After a couple hours of spamming and watching Friends, season 8, I had another hunger. I needed something… something with… CARBS!!!

Everyone was asleep… who would know? Who would ever find out?

It’s vacation. Aren’t I allowed a teensy weensy little carb-laced snack?

A couple more pulls of whiskey and I convinced myself that YES, I did deserve a little snacky-poo. ::yes::

I bolted up off my “spot” on the loveseat to raid the kitchen. The day before we had LOADED up on food and snacks, mostly for the children. It was time to get my grubby mitts on this mother load of carb pornage. :pirate:

Now, keep in mind that I haven’t had so much as a single potato chip since the 4th of July. No spaghetti… No potatoes… not a single slice of bread or roll… No candy or chocolate… No sugar at all… Not even a piece of gum or a breath mint!

We’re talking 93 days people! I am now JONESIN’ for something that ain’t made of meat, cheese or fried pork skin. After 255 servings of alcohol that day, I needed something crunchy to absorb the poison.

Once I’ve convinced myself it’s “ok” to do something, I throw caution to the wind and dive in headfirst.

The next 40 minutes was a blur of potato chips, cheese nips, Oreos, M&M’s and anything else I could find in the cupboards. I didn’t even take a snack back to my loveseat, but just ate right there in the kitchen, standing up, hunched over the sink. Fist fulls of snacks, half of which made it to my mouth while the other slopped down my shirt and onto the kitchen floor.

Crunching, moaning, snorting and slurping were the noises one would have encountered had they been within hearing distance.

By the time I’d finished, I was drunk from food. My brain swirled, stomach gurgled, and bowels clenched. Walking barefoot through the kitchen I smashed the food that had fallen from my nervous and shaking hands.

My sweaty feet collected much of the crumbled carb carnage, which was then drug into the living room with me where I relaxed, watched one more episode of friends, and downed the remainder of my delicious Canadian whiskey.

Three hours later I woke to the Menu Screen of Friends, lying on the loveseat, freezing and shaking as if poisoned from my 40 minutes of debauchery.

Staggering to the bedroom, it felt as if I was walking on glass as all the snacks stuck to my feet dug in with their sharp carb corners and edges. I had to hold on to the wall, lift each foot and wipe the jagged carb remnants from each foot onto the carpet.

My final thoughts as I slipped quietly into bed were of the state of the living room and kitchen area I had left in my wake. I should really go out and quickly tidy up but my will power is waning as the cloud of sleep slowing begins shutting down my system.

I’ll get up early and spot clean before LtP is even out of bed. The perfect plan… ::yes::

GREAT BEGINNING! The titles are still maintaining their regular grippingness....kind of like carbs....hmmm....

Our children go to bed at 8 pm sharp every night of their lives. They don’t even really fight us about bed. We kept the exact same schedule for vacation. By the time we got home from dinner every night, the kids would watch a little Stacy on TV, get a bath, then hit the sack.

My kids go to bed at 8 too, but with a HUGE fight, EVERY NIGHT. We still wonder when they'll get the hint that whining doesn't help?? Good for you getting to have some "together time"

Yep. This sounds about right, though my DH will check his video game boards. Yes, seriously.

Dude, I laughed so hard when I read this, DH came in and asked what I was laughing at. I ended up reading it out loud to him. Right now, he's sitting on his computer reading this whole TR and snickering.

Love the spot. did you leave a permanent dent by the time you left?? My DD does the same thing with her stuffed animals. I actually came in the other day to one of her baby dolls hanging by its NECK from a shoelace she had tied to a doorknob....nice to know I'm raising a sociopath.

I hope you gave Stitch and friends stiff drinks to help recover their dignities afterwards...

Great report!! Much fun!! Want more!! Yay!!

My blood sugar went up about 40 points just reading about your binge...Can't wait to find out how hung over you felt in the morning.... :sad2:

Well, Linnie stood me up on our Fingerlakes Wine tasting Jaunt, so now I am sitting and not-so-patiently waiting on a new installment.

Me? What'd I do? Did I miss something? I don't think I got on the boards yesterday-I made a HUGE dinner! :yay: We had a 21 pound turkey for 4 of us!! :banana: Plus a whole other mess of crap that I made. Leftovers galore!

And yesterday, I made 2 quilts for LA's bed. She's got bunk beds and twin sized comforters don't fit well-they're too long so I made 2 for her beds and finished them yesterday. I really need to take a quilting class. Maybe after the first of the year. It stretched my brain a littlre more than I like.

I was exhausted by the time bed time rolled around. Once again, I left Buzz in a heap on the couch, staring blankly at the screen, occasionally lifting his whiskey glass to his thirsty lips. Did he even notice I went to bed? Probably. I wasn't there to refill his glass. He makes this grunting noise at me when he needs more "juice" and if I roll my eyes or ignore him, then he reminds me of how much money he gives me for mad money when he gets his bonus. Kind of guilts me into it. I guess I do have a price. :sad2:

Linnie go to page 114 post# 1706, that should help you catch up on this subject a little.
 
H,

Eating standing up.:thumbsup2

Snack foods = inner tube around stomach.

I had a hankering for a Snickers last night. I looked at the Nutritional Guide...280 calories.:scared1: :scared1: I still bought it, but it's just sitting on the kitchen counter...calling my name.
 
Our children go to bed at 8 pm sharp every night of their lives. They don’t even really fight us about bed.

What's your secret? A little crown royal in their drink with dinner??

So basically like being at homw whilst on vacation huh :sad2:

OMG :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:
 
:lmao: Your scene in the kitchen reminds me of a dog getting excited over a really tasty bag of garbage and the disaster scene it leaves behind. I'm sure Linnie was impressed when she woke up. :rolleyes:
 
Our children go to bed at 8 pm sharp every night of their lives. They don’t even really fight us about bed. We kept the exact same schedule for vacation.
Our kids go up to bed around 7 pm with showers, etc. But I let them stay up until 10 pm. It used to be 9 pm but they all woke up at the unGodly hour of 6 am. So, that had to stop, especially because I am the one that get woken up! So 10 pm it is. They have to stay in bed though calmly watching movies and the TV gets set to automatically turn off at 10 pm-ish. Works for us! But it is still all about routine. If we go up later, they are off the wall. And that happens on Rob's watch.

But, I'm surprised you keep this routine on vacation. We totally never did this. We ran them kids ragged, sometimes.


So what did LtP & I do every night after the kids went to bed? Good question!

Think hot, nasty lovin’ and you’d be close! :banana:

J/K :sad2:
This one totally cracked me up! Even if this were true, do we really need to know?? BTW, Rob gave me a hickey last night! I was ready to smack him! :lmao:

She started to yawn… one after the other… and I knew her time was limited.
Sounds like me most nights.

My final thoughts as I slipped quietly into bed were of the state of the living room and kitchen area I had left in my wake. I should really go out and quickly tidy up but my will power is waning as the cloud of sleep slowing begins shutting down my system.

I’ll get up early and spot clean before LtP is even out of bed. The perfect plan… ::yes::
Now I really can't wait for the next update. Especially Linnie's version ....

Okay, my head is still wierded out. I was ready to tell you that I saw Muhammad Ali at O'hare once. And what does this have to do with OJ? Nuttin. I totally got my brain waves mixed. I blame it on the kids.

Is that a soda I see????????


And yesterday, I made 2 quilts for LA's bed. She's got bunk beds and twin sized comforters don't fit well-they're too long so I made 2 for her beds and finished them yesterday. I really need to take a quilting class. Maybe after the first of the year. It stretched my brain a littlre more than I like.
Do you make the beds? The boys have bunks and we never make the beds because of the comforters. Too hard anyway!

He makes this grunting noise at me when he needs more "juice" and if I roll my eyes or ignore him, then he reminds me of how much money he gives me for mad money when he gets his bonus. Kind of guilts me into it. I guess I do have a price. :sad2:
He gives you money? HE GIVES YOU MONEY???? Oh, you need to throw in the pregnancy and labor thing. Then remind him how much it costs for child care and maids these days ...
