The Mominator Vs. The Kinder Gentler Me...Go Read the TR!!!

I have been sitting in front of my computer for hours catching up on your pre-trippie Lauralee. :surfweb:

As usual; well done. :thumbsup2 :thumbsup2

I decided I better stop lurking and post, so that I don't miss any more. :cool1:
 
Ok, so it’s been awhile since I’ve had an update. It’s been a crazy couple of weeks. We’ve had company for a bit – our best friend from NH came down and he and I have just been shopping our little brains out…My JC Penney credit card will never be the same! Hmmmm….come to think of it, neither will my Disney Visa! :lmao: BUT, on the upside, I finally found an outfit to wear for our big chick night out. As soon as I decide which one that is. I found a really cute summery dress – not quite a sundress, but I love it. But I doubt that I’ll wear it. Why I bought it, I’ll never know. Then I found a baby-doll type top that I fell even more in love with so I’m pretty sure this one will be the winner. I think I’ll wear that with either capris or Bermuda shorts.

BUT – I need new sandals to go with my new outfit, right? So that’s next on my list of things to do while passing the time away these next 5-ish weeks…

Anywhoooo….other than power shopping, we’ve been busy hitting the local beach and cruising around in the ‘Vette. It’s been a great summer so far! :woohoo:

We took Michael to see Transformers yesterday. Two words…LOVED IT! Great movie, I thought. And the special effects were awesome. I love big summer movies like these. Well, I guess the “summer” part is not necessary, but it sure does help! Next on our “must see” agenda is Ratatouille. I read some people’s comments that said they liked it better than Toy Story. I find it hard to believe, so I’ve got to go see it.

I’ve also been messing around with my ADR’s. Yep. Can you believe it? I may have posted some of this before, but this is almost final (and you'll see what I'm talking about with the “almost” part shortly)…

08/20 – Our flight lands in Orlando at 9:30am so I’m looking forward to getting off to an early start. We’ll either hit a water park or hang around the pool at SSR and then head to Epcot that night. Oops…I have no ADR for this night any more…must do something to rectify that. Perhaps I’ll book the Turf Club. OR…maybe Marrakesh…Biergarten? Hmmm…think, think, think…:scratchin

08/21 – MGM in the morning and then back to hotel for a dip and a nap for the little man. We’ve got a 5:45 ADR at Tony’s and then the Pirate & Princess Party!! pirate:

08/22 – We’re stalking Jo and Tracy at Epcot today! Or are we….:rolleyes1 We have an 8pm ADR for Boma, but I’ve been on the fence about canceling. I don’t think I will, but it’s eating at my brain. My original thought was to go early, hang around and check out the animals, but then I’ve heard all these crazy stories about the animals not being out due to construction and what not so I’m on the fence. I need my zebra domes. I want them.:yay: But do ya see what I mean about being "almost final"?

08/23 – Michael’s got his Pirate Cruise and Tony’s got his parasailing and then we’re heading to MGM. We’ve got a 4:40 ADR at H & V for the Fantasmic! Dinner package. I love Fantasmic and can’t wait to see it again.:thumbsup2

08/24 – This day is still kind of up in the air too. I have “AM – MK” typed into my handy-dandy Word calendar but “AK??” written next to it. Hmmm…what to do, who to stalk…I’m leaning towards both. Kind of wishy-washy. I could skip AK all together this trip and it won’t break my heart. :rolleyes: And we don’t have a lot of other time at the MK…just the night at the P&P Party. Wait girls, before you speak up, I’ll get to the 26th…in a bit. We have a 7pm ADR at Cape May Café. That much of my day is sure. The rest…well, I could be like S’late and get on the first bus that comes along…:rolleyes1

08/25 – No explanations needed for this day!! :drinking1 :drinking1

08/26 – We have an afternoon flight out, so provided the girls don’t leave me the world’s biggest pineapple hang-over, we’ll hit MK in the morning and hopefully get a chance to say goodbye to my new friends! Well, it won’t be goodbye…it’s just going to be Ta Ta For Now…this much I know!:grouphug:

As for my January trip, I’ve got just a couple more weeks before I can book ADR’s for that. I have, though, changed my hotel 3 times. It started out at SSR. Then I changed to Beach Club. Then I changed to Boardwalk…now I’m thinking of Wilderness Lodge. Geeze…what’s wrong with me? Why can’t I decide?:confused3

Ok gang…bonus question…ready?? “If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice”. Ok, name the band and the song…I'll wait...:rolleyes1

Until later, Mouseketeers….

Have a magical day!! :wizard: LY/MI!!!:grouphug:
 
:woohoo: Can't wait :goodvibes

Wow - talk about pressure...:scared:

Me too!!! popcorn::

I totally know this is gonna be good!! :hyper:

Great. Sure. Go ahead. Pile it on. Now I feel bad as I had to cut this installment down a bit...I'm at work...:surfweb:

Thanks Tasha! Good to "see" you again! And looking forward to seeing you in August!!

Hope I didn't disappoint you all TOO badly...

I think I’ll wear that with either capris or Bermuda shorts.
Shoot, I'm behind on this one, too. Are we strictly hanging at the Poly, or is there a chance we'll incur more walking, as in at the MK? That'll at least narrow down my footwear choices :rotfl:

BUT – I need new sandals to go with my new outfit, right?

::yes:: let me know how you do - I've had the worst time trying to find the perfect pair of sandla this cummer.:guilty:

Next on our “must see” agenda is Ratatouille. I read some people’s comments that said they liked it better than Toy Story.
SAY WAHT????!!!! :faint: Okay, I'll keep any other editorial comments to myself until you see it :rolleyes1

I’ve also been messing around with my ADR’s. Yep. Can you believe it?
You don't say... ;)

We have an 8pm ADR for Boma, but I’ve been on the fence about canceling. I don’t think I will, but it’s eating at my brain.

That's a tough one. Boma is so good, BUT it's not like you won't be back. Will Michael freak if he doesn't get to see the animals?

08/25 – No explanations needed for this day!! :drinking1 :drinking1
:rotfl2:

Well, it won’t be goodbye…it’s just going to be Ta Ta For Now…this much I know!:grouphug:
Absolutely! :grouphug:

Ok gang…bonus question…ready?? “If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice”. Ok, name the band and the song…I'll wait...:rolleyes1
OOO, OOO, OOOO, Mr. Kotter, I know, I know!
That would be RUSH singing "Freewill"!!
Now I have this intense desire to scribble the Rush logo on a notebook cover...

Hope I didn't disappoint you all TOO badly...
NEVER!! :hug:
 
Then I found a baby-doll type top that I fell even more in love with so I’m pretty sure this one will be the winner. I think I’ll wear that with either capris or Bermuda shorts.
Oh man! I fell sucker to all the new baby doll tops! They're just too cute! :thumbsup2:

Sounds like a great summer! :goodvibes

Just my 2 cents.... we loved it! Better than Toy Story, eh? I don't know about that, but certainly more my cup o tea than Cars. I think the story line was better, JMHO. ;)
08/23 – Michael’s got his Pirate Cruise and Tony’s got his parasailing and then we’re heading to MGM. We’ve got a 4:40 ADR at H & V for the Fantasmic! Dinner package. I love Fantasmic and can’t wait to see it again.:thumbsup2

I do hope you guys make it over to MK! :goodvibes
Absolutely no "good-byes"! :grouphug:

Short, but sweet, LL! :goodvibes

Shoot, I'm behind on this one, too. Are we strictly hanging at the Poly, or is there a chance we'll incur more walking, as in at the MK? That'll at least narrow down my footwear choices :rotfl:
Just in case, I'm packing my Athens in my bag! :rotfl2:

OOO, OOO, OOOO, Mr. Kotter, I know, I know!

Whew! I was totally clueless! :confused3

Sounds great :goodvibes

Not out here til 12th October :eek: :sad2:

I’ve also been messing around with my ADR’s. Yep. Can you believe it?
Errrr yep :rotfl2:

Pirate & Princess Party!! pirate:
So is Tony now going too????

08/22 – We’re stalking Jo and Tracy at Epcot today! Or are we….:rolleyes1
Hope to see you :)

The rest…well, I could be like S’late and get on the first bus that comes along…:rolleyes1
Great idea I can just see you doing that :rotfl2:

No explanations needed for this day!! :drinking1 :drinking1
Can't wait for that either, I know what I'm eating already :thumbsup2

Well, it won’t be goodbye…it’s just going to be Ta Ta For Now…this much I know!:grouphug:
Awwww LL that's so sweet I'd better start saving again then :rotfl:

Oh man! I fell sucker to all the new baby doll tops! They're just too cute! :thumbsup2:
Me in one of those tops and you'd be asking when I'm due :lmao:

Whew! I was totally clueless! :confused3
Me too but I think I'm at a disadvantage I've never heard of Rush :rotfl2:
 
Sounds like most of a plan! :lmao:

So, LL, I have to ask. I think Michael's a year older than my boys, but was Transformers too much? DH really wants to see it. We're just not sure that the boys are ready. They've seen all but one of the Star Wars movies... What's your take?

We've got Ratatouille on our "next" list as well!

Just my $.02, but we loved Marrakesh...:rolleyes1
 
That's it - I've been forced to throw some random music trivia back at ya till you come back LL...


At night, when all the world's asleep,
The questions run too deep
For such a simple man.


Name that artist and song! First correct answer receives a Lapu Lapu.

take a look at my girlfriend, she's the only one I got.
Not much of a girlfriend, never seem to get alot.


I wanna say Supertramp and I think it's on the Breakfast in America album, but the song titles got me.:confused3
ETA: DO you mean the original band or the remake?

Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
but please tell me who I am

Um...that would be The Logical Song by Supertramp!!!:cool1:

Just my $.02, but we loved Marrakesh...:rolleyes1

Michael loved transformers...wasn't really scary but full of action. There was only about a minute's worth of conversation between the boy and his parents that a certain word came up that we didn't like and were hoping Michael didn't pick up on and luckily he didn't...

Ummm...let's see if I can do this without getting sensored...there's a part of the movie where where the parents are asking the boy what he was doing alone in his room...the parents were like are you Master******...but that was it...and like I said, Michael didn't pick up on it.

It was a loud movie, full of action, but Michael LOVED, LOVED it! We did too...I'd go see it again...:thumbsup2

You could go on a date night with your DH and see it first and see if you think the boys are ready for it...I'm all about any excuse for a date night!:rolleyes1

Sounds great

We're really enjoying it...when we lived in NH, all we ever did was work on our house nights and weekends so this summer has been a well-deserved break for all of us!:thumbsup2

I still don't know if he's going...when I talk about it I still say that Michael and I are going, but I did buy an extra ticket just in case he changes his mind...who knows...

Okay, you got the band and you get extra points for the album, so one Lapu Lapu for you!

Ding, ding, ding! Technically, you were third, but you did get the song title, so a Lapu Lapu for you, too.

Clearly, I'll have to make this harder...

There is just NO stumping V, is there?:confused3
Ah, but remember? You had a bunch in a row I missed - I'm just making up for those now! ;)
 
I see it's time for another round of Name that Tune...

Artist and Song title, if you please:

All your life you've never seen a woman,
Taken by the wind.
Would you stay if she promised you heaven?
Will you ever win?

Ahhhh.... that would be Fleetwood Mac and the song would be Rhiannon. Loves me that Stevie, baby! ;)

Thanks for all the info! and yep, we try to do date nights whenever possible. :) DH actually really wants to see it with his brother, who's 8 years younger. DH dealt with DBIL's obsession as a child... ;)
