The Two Really Old(ish) Happyhaunts Go South. Alone... But With ECVs!

[ohboyx3]

Enjoying your report... and I can relate. Just lost my Dad last year to Parkinson's Lewy Body dementia. Terrible disease. I'm sorry you are having to go through it.

Hey! Few replies!

ZZUB!!:

Maybe the jokes do write themselves. Cause I still feel like crap. But... there's health on the horizon. I can feel it. Gettin' better!!!!

Guess how much kleenex I used this week?

Enough to fill your Cadillac Escalade. Right to the brim.

Which I did.

My advise: Take a match to it. Not worth cleaning. And... your residual fart gas in the upholstery will make for a super duper coolasp explosion. Just do it somewhere safe. Like... in your garage. OK?

Thank you for your reply. And... I'm glad *so* glad you enjoyed my trippie. I could tell!!!!! I think. And... you're welcome!!!



I think.


Sneezie!!! Came back again!!!

YaY!!! Thanks, bud!!!

And...

ohboyx3: Thanks!!! And I appreciate your words. Thanks you!


Just a lil preview of the new trippie.


There's lotsa donkey teeth and not *my* butt but lotsa Mellyman's. Plus treats!!!


Cheers, Mel.

Mel!!!

You finished!

Many Congrats!!

The Bat signal sent me over here. Sorry I was out enjoying our November summer last week and didn't get here to read.
Not really.
I was stuck at work. Listening to everyone saying how nice it was out...

Loved the description of MS. I do not ride Gary. Nope. Never. Nada. I'm a chicken. NOMartyMcFly. Remind me to tell you about the time I dropped NOTofT. Whimp Mcwhimpsky!

So love that you are The Commander in chief. Or PM.

I busted my spleen over the "NOMKferrypeep".

What is with the small font. Must be a foreign thang.

You did get the Turkey Leg T-shirts for the kids!!!

I hope your got your watch too!!!

Thanks for the laughs!
Love your TR and that you finished!

Looking forward to your next.

And those pictures....inquiring minds want to know. Heh-heh.

 

[1000thhappyhaunt]

YAK!!!

Thanks for reading and all your Canukian support here!! Glad u enjoyed. idk whether or not I got my watch. Time will tell.

Hoping tho!!!!


The only pic I can explain yet is the "eye". It's cause I was fresh outta the shower and drinking the most wonderful champagne in the world on the balcony at SSR. Dripping wet and in a towel. And... I figured I couldn't take a pic of me all wet in a towel and messed up with no makeup, drinking. Champagne.

NOferryboatsfullofpeopleIwavedtolikethattho.

So... just the glass. and my eye. OLO.

Cheers, Mel.

edit: Yak...go to bed now like me. fellow non-sleeping Canukian.

I know I was a little late to the party, but now it's like I'm sooooo late to the party it done ended. Empty room, red solo cups with remnants of cheap wine strewn on the floor, half-eaten Dole Whip Floats....wait,what? No such thing as a half-eaten Dole Whip Float.

Sigh...I hadn't planned on disappearing for so long. It's been a rough month. First, in the same week, BOTH of my laptops gave out. ..DED.
Strike that. ..just dead.

Then, my grandma's health took a sudden and bad turn, which in turn made my health take a bad turn. I stress, I get sick-that's how I roll.

Bought a new laptop and owned it less than 24 hours when Windows malfunctioned or some such bullcarp. It came back seemingly fixed, but just a few short days later the hard drive was damaged.
Lesson: Don't let a cat lie on the keyboard. Not even a tiny, 4 pound cat. Because, apparently, the hard drive lies right underneath the keyboard. People these days are all "We want light weight laptops!" And your hard drive is all "Fine! Just make that plastic cheap and lightweight and crush me!".
So now I have to reply on my phone...ugh!

Worst ever- my grandma passed away. We selfishly want our loved ones to be here with us, but my grandma had 96 years on this earth - a long, lovely and full life. I truly believe she was ready to go. She was the last one of her siblings, her friends, and many many family members. It brings me great comfort in knowing she's with my grandpa and my mom. I know there is an amazing reunion and celebration taking place in Heaven! That makes me smile.

No way am I going to be able to comment on the gazillion posts I missed, but some things need to be addressed:

Ahem....

Mel - Thank you for the invite to the Mausoleum. I think I could be happy there. Cuz the vibe...that I'm picking up. ..it's a Sting-free Zone. (NOevilbees)

You. Me. Long lost seesters, methinks. Coming to Canada (that could be a craptastic Eddie Murphy sequel):
TOTALLY.
DOABLE!
Because:

D) I've always wanted to visit Canada!

78) oh,wait. ...I've been there

Room222) but, never further north than Toronto

Car 54) The exit to the Ambassador Bridge is 45 minutes away from me. AND
.it sneaks up on you. Despite the huge signs that proclaim EXIT ONLY TO AMBASSADOR BRIDGE. WHAT DO YOU WANT WITH WINDSOR, ANYWAY? THE CASINO? LOSER! JUST THROW YOUR MONEY IN THE GARBAGE!
I know sooo many peeps who have accidentally taken that exit and are subsequently berated by the Canadian Border Patrol Nazis for being such stoooopid Americans.

I digress.

What I'm saying is: let's make this happen.

Now, let's talk about your purported claim that I somehow broke into your brain and extracted words to form my posts.
BALDERDASH!
POPPYCOCK!

OK...Funnel cakes, BAYBEEE! Intentional. For you. An homage, if you will.
The rest, all me.
To quote the brilliant lyricist, Morrissey:
If you must write prose and poems
The words you use should be your own
Don't plaigairse or take "on loan"
For there's always someone, somewhere
With a big nose, who knows
And trips you up and laughs when you fall
-Cemetry Gates

You...me. Similar writing style.
So, I am flattered that you draw that comparison because you are ze best!

AND! Thanks for stating that you would read my unwritten trip report. I really have considered doing such.
My sis and I have discussed writing a dual trippie from both of our perspectives.
Might be pointless. ..and a boring read.
We our twins separated by 18 months and have pretty much the same perspective.
Would probably read along these lines:

Me: Chapter one, Day one at Disney

Sister: What she said.

Sister: Chapter two, Day Two

Me: I concur. That's how it all went down.

Etc.

Dang, it's 1 am! I had other things, many things, that I wanted to address!

I am so happy/excited/thrilled that you'll have another trip report coming down the pike! Woot!

GottaGetToDisney!


Ahhh. Well.

What to say here?

There's thanks for coming along on this trip. And also thanks for your amusing posts which are really like something Me(l) would post. And glad you aren't so scared by us that you'd even come visit LOL! Also... u should consider writing a trippie. It's kinda fun. And I'm certain that u and ur sister would have different things to report. Ultimately.

So think on it. Unless you're so Borg u think as one. All the time. But... who does that????

NO ONE!!!


Oh... nevermind...maybe...just maybe...just Me(l) and ZZUB!!!

For example: Today...

1. Worrying about thickening back hair. Braid? Bun? Weave? Bedazzle? Or go conservative?
b. Will the next Star Wars movie be long enough to enjoy two full large popcorns a slushy and also nachos et cheese???
6. Daniel Craig is so hot. *guilty* overeating ensues.
1/2. Cake in the fridge.
8. Crap. No. It's gone. 8 it.
10. Sneezie.
11. What's going on with U of Miss?
12. Haven't had a cheesesteak in forever.
3. Or a whole tub of Cool Whip.
IV. Really should floss more.


All that stupidity aside...


I wanna say this: I'm am so sorry for the loss of your Grandmother. But... you said it! What a run she had! 96 years of a good life. Not too shabby. And really something to be celebrated. Truly.

I feel each day now that my mother is ending her run, too. And she's getting ready and getting to some sort of peace about it. And. Sadly... no one else is. No one else is ready for that. So... I hear you. And feel you.


My sympathies and hugs.


Cheers, Mel.

Hope you're feeling better from the plague! We all had it in my house, and that's what we called it too. Very much looking forward to your next trippie.

So sorry to hear about the General. Wishing her, and all of you, peace. And sending hugs.

Well carp. I randomly decided to find my way back to the boards and randomly stumble across a HappyFlippinHaunt TR which is FINISHED (Cheers, Mel, I'm not sure I ever finished one.). Carpity carp carp carp.
I couldn't 'member my password. Then I couldn't 'member which e-mail was associated with my screenname. Then when I finally got all that squared away I was distracted by the need for an avatar. And that my ex was still part of my signature. I divorced him from that and FINALLY made my way here. To the end. Ish. Because I'm only halfway through reading.
Anywho. It's good to "see" you again. Great trip. Sorry 'bout the panic attack. Been there, done that. Got a prescription.

 

[1000thhappyhaunt]

tonga and Tinkerbellarella!!

Come join the new trippie.


Thanks for posting and this one is done now.


Started the new one.


Cheers, Mel.

I'm a year ish late, but I found you!!

I'm a little bit OVER Disney. We spent 2 weeks in May/June as a graduation trip and it was too hot, too crowded and too everything...

But I recently ran into a friend that mentioned the DIS Boards and I came to see if I could rekindle my Disney Magic with a trip report (or 7). So glad I found you, but it's kind of hard to get any work done when I cannot stop reading. And laughing. It's Thursday and my work is looking a bit Wednesday ish. And I just laugh cried AGAIN about the snake avoidance tactic at the waterpark by climbing on the sunburned man's head.

AND I've had to look up many things - but I still don't know who Ryan and Ashley are. (NORyanAndAshley)

Keep on keeping on and I'll keep pretending to work...
