Trip Reports that get you in trouble

[Disney Deb]

I adore reading everyones trip reports. Many of you are marvelous writers. I must guiltily admit that the most "interesting" reports are those where "situations" with family members or friends have arisen during the course of your vacation....and written humorously from your point of view.

I have a few trips under my belt......and would like to contribute.

HOWEVER.........

People I travel with MAY find my report, and read my "take". And truthfully I could get in MAJOR TROUBLE.

Have any of you had to deal with travel companions who had a problem with what you wrote in a trip report? And what happened?

Thanks to the writers out there.

aww go ahead and let us see. I just love reading everyone's reports, it makes me feel like I'm actually there.

Just make up names for everyone & pray they never read this boared. I'd love to read your story!

Well my DH came on here and posted a rebuttle one time. He did get us lost, he did forget that the HM is not in the same place in the MK as in DL. He did over ride me, the one with months of DIS info in her head, and take us in the wrong direction. That was the one and only time I let him be the leader... OK off topic... but it is true!

Change the names to protect the guilty

Too funny! We are taking a trip with some members of DH's family in January and I have given them a lot of info on resources I use for Disney EXCEPT for disboards! I let my hair down on this board and post a lot, God only knows what I might have said.

I do the same thing! I never mention this site. It's my hiding place. I'm always afraid I'll complain about work or something & someone will recognize me! Or someone will find out what I bought for Christmas. You never know.

Deb,

Let us know what you decide to do!

That's one reason I'm having trouble with my trip report for May. My brothers and parents went with us, and I'm sure they will read it, and though I love them all, some of the insights I have into our family may not be so appreciated.

I have issues.

So what to do? Try to give it a funny twist? Not so sure, so for now I'm procrastinating.

Write it and EMAIL it to us this way you can tell us the truth LOL I've been waiting for your report your last one was so good.

Hey Deb,

Well darn! Half the reason your reports are so good is because you're so honest and don't really censor yourself. Maybe you can have an edited and non-edited version for the rest of us!

I picked on my DH relentlessly and he might be surprised to see what I wrote, but he's so easy-going I'd doubt he'd care. Not to mention that he does not enjoy trip-planning, trip-report reading, or hell reading in general...I think I'm pretty safe.

I have always wondered whether or not Delswife's SIL read her report.

I have always wondered whether or not Delswife's SIL read her report.

Nope.


I was told that I couldn't use thier pictures, so I had to take them down which was no problem and to further protect myself I changed thier names to Waldo, Scruffy, Pigtails and Brothers wife.

I wouldn't call her SIL if they gave me mickey bars to do it.

Brother read them and loved them, he means it.

I think that if you make fun of yourself as much as your family, it's okay. My family had a ball with what I wrote, especially when I admitted several times to wearing soggy man panties. (Fit pretty good, just a bit bunchy in the front)

I HOPE you decide to post your trip! All I have to read is the line 'who put this diaper on me' from your signature and I start laughing!

Create an alternate identity for posting those incrimnating trip reports.... and change the names for your own saftey.

Deb,

I will be writing my 1st trip report this week, and I thought the same thing. All in all, everyone in my family behaved, but there WERE a couple of Disney meltdowns by some (myself included). I've decided that if I can tell the truth about myself, then I can do the same for otheres. Besides, none of them are nearly the fanatic that I am and half the time when I showed them something they were without a clue as to what I was talking about.

Off to neverland - PLEASE post your report! You are the one who got me hooked on this site! I was skimming through and saw your post (I think it was episode 32 or something). I went back and read all 46(?) episodes and printed them for DH to read! He was in hysterics the whole time!

Delswife - I know what you mean about the man panties! I actually had to wear them this trip until I could get to the laundry facilities. They weren't bad at all, but it helped that I had loose shorts on that day and there was no Kali in sight, thank goodness. DS, 10, however, was APPALLED. When I suggested to him that I go commando instead I thought he was going to faint right then and there.

Anyway, please keep the reports coming!

Okay guys,

Well, I AM going to write that report, and am halfway through the first installment. Thanks for the encouragement.

The issues I had during our last trip revolved around the fact that we were travelling as a huge group.

Now, onto the more important subject which has been brought up here: women wearing men's underwear. It's time for me to come clean.

I've worn Dix's underwear more times than I can count.

It happened when I was working 40+ hours a week in a professional office, and would get behind in my laundry at home. The morning scramble would come around when I was running late and couldn't find clean underwear.

Dix has always had 3 times as many unders as me. It was easy to grab from his pile.

Delswife is right; They are bunchy in front. You really notice it when you have to shove all that extra "Up front" material into pantyhose and pour yourself into a tight pencil skirt. I quickly learned how to fold two nice little pleats into the front to use up some of the excess material..

The unders-sharing came to an end one night when I got home from work and Dix was feeling frisky. In the heat of the moment, I flung off my high heels.

Down slid the pantyhose!

ZIP!!! Off flew the pencil skirt!

And it all came to a screeching halt when Dix saw his oversized bunchy unders hanging off my hips with two neat little pleats folded in the front.

AFter that I bought two jumbo underwear bags at Costco and became much more diligent about keeping up with the laundry.

And I purposefully left Dix's unders out of the washer in the hopes that he would run out and perhaps have to resort to wearing mine. Revenge is my middle name.

It never happened. Dix just buys more underwear when he runs out.

To date, he has over 36 pairs.

OK, (wiping tears off eyes, assuring ds 17, and his gf I am NOT crazy "never mind")

wait a minute... 1.s glad someone else mentioned Delswife posts... lymi, thank you!!

2. You mean 1st people still wear PANTYHOSE...

and 3. People wear UNDIES with PANTHOSE???

and of course that begs #4. what does it make me.... that I 1. have more undies than dh, 2. I dont wear pantyhose (anymore) and 3. I didnt wear undies with the pantyhose (I bought pantyhose with liners!)

oh, and maybe I should say....

*Never Mind!!

 

[off to neverland]

Well, Eeyore, this was nearly 10 years ago. Hose were in. Or so I thought? Now I'm worried..... Maybe I was a geek and didn't know it! (Okay, okay, some of you will arguably point out that wearing my husband's underwear under pantyhose in itself labels me as a geek, but aside from that, I'm quite sure I was "cool!")

And as for the "underless" pantyhose, I never went for that because of how bad I was at laundry! That's what got me into that mess, remember? Washing hose is a heck of a lot harder than washing undergarments, and that would be WAAAYYYY too much to handle.

So Dix's unders under pantyhose was the solution.

I'm happy to say I'll never be wearing Dix's unders or pantyhose again! Life is good!

OfftoNeverland...I LOVE your reports...thanks for writing another one....if you chicken out and realize your content might offend...PM it to me and I'll post it under a "hidden" (meaning one my dh created but never has time to use) moniker...that way no one will know who it's from and it'll give me the impression that I actually made it to Disney (we've had to cancel 4 planned trips waiting for a house to sell!!! This September better be a GREEN light on Disney! SELL HOUSE SELL!!)

Can't wait to read it!!
