Way Early I know but anyone going on Eastern May 1-8 2004?

Oh I forgot to ask this for all you ladies going what will you be wearing for formal night? I was wondering if it should be a cocktail length dress or full length? Have to decide what to pack, love to get dressed up but don't want to be the only one wearing a full length gown!

Thanks Brenda
 
Well you all know me..cant stay away from the boards even when feeling under the weather so I grabbed the laptop and the wireless card and voila here I am...aren't you so happy for modern technology?? ROFLMAO

Jason--no hurry on the update of the mini-meet..whenever is fine! I realize you DO have a life and all contrary to me who has NO life!:rolleyes: ROLFMAO at your pages/ages thing!

Tracey--Wow cool no boss today! Mine is at preschool right now!
:p Yeah it was so nice yesterday..shorts, t-shirts now it is back to long pants and long sleeve shirts. It stinks! Of course there is a joke about living in Utah because the LDS church has a General Conference twice a year held for 4 hours on Saturday and 4 hours on Sunday televised on local tv. EVERY year it seems on Conference weekend it gets crummy, rainy, cold and yucky! And of course it is THIS weekend so naturally it has to get crummy and cold. I guess it is to keep all the faithful mormons from doing anything but watching tv! *yep I grew up mormon still go occasionally but am branching out a little bit figuring the alcohol is like my liquid xanax.* Utah is the biggest user of prescription drugs in the country..go figure! I'm definitely the black sheep of the family..and my parents have NO idea! LOL Anyway back to the story.......I tivo that program on VH-1 religiously! I think it is hilarious to look at them now and eww some of them are N~A~S~T~Y!!!! Yeah we got a good laugh on the plane on the way home with everyone saying "hey weren't you the thong woman?" of course I wore it because there were a ton of little 18-19 year old girls with the perfect tiny perky bum's wearing them so I did it to show them what their a**'s would look like in 15 years and 3 kids! ROLFMAO...most of the people on the plane applauded me when they found out who I was. I even got drunk enough (go figure) to wear a sign saying something like " one day your cute little bums will look like THIS" ...with an arrow pointing downward! It was funny but I look back at it now and shake my head!

Brendy--You can use my kids anytime you get bored! Really! I know for me it would be a nice break since I"m home alone with them a lot. Ryan has travelled a lot in the past not so much now but I get burned out so anytime! LOL about hubby finding you in the kids area...you sound like my MIL! She'd kill herself for the kids..not me! I think the kids take after their dad! ROFLMAO! We both have great senses of humor so I don't know who they get it from! We are both goofy!

As for the dress thing..I have a black full length backless dress I plan to wear on Formal night if that helps! I also have just a black simple knee length blah dress for semi-formal! LOL

Well off to get something to eat and gag down some more tylenol and an extra squirt of zicam!

Heidi
 
OMG - Too funny Heidi!!!!!!! :rotfl: I don't think I could ever do that, so I definetly commend you for having the guts to do it!!!!! Well, it sounds like you had a really good attitude about it all, so thats good.. and you can look back and laugh about it now!!!

Brenda - I've got a long velvet dress (full length) with rhinestone "spaghetti" straps I'm wearing for formal and a brown/black spaghetti strap calf-length dress for semi.


Though for the life of me, I thought i had a tropical outfit to wear and after looking through my closet - I don't think i do!! Oh well, guess I gotta go shopping this weekend!!!! :moped:

back to "looking busy"......

:wave2:
 
Guys I got my docs today via Fed Ex!! Woo hoo!! Nothing can keep me from those Konk Coolers now!!pirate: (we need a drunk smilie, right Hydster??):crazy:
 

WTG Saturday on getting those docs...now let the rest of the group get theirs and then LET THE PARTY BEGIN! LOL

Yeah we do need a drunk staggering emoticon here! ROFLMAO

That's awesome that you got them! Now if I just could get my cold under control it would be awesome!

Heidi

aka the thong wearing lush!:teeth:
 
Congrats on the docs Saturday!

How about this for a drunken smiley...
corkysm34.gif
 
HAHA..that's hilarious! Now if we could just make it stagger around and puke THAT would be me! ROFLMAO
 
Heidi you are cracking me up - I did the topless thing in Acapulco thinking I would not know anyone and the nice couple who we talked to on the airplane all the way down showed up:o that was a lesson learned. One thing I learned while living in Provo, if you are LDS you either party or you don't, but if you do YOU DO. That's the nice thing about being Catholic - it's expected of you:D

Brenda - I called today and MS said not to expect them (doc's) until 2-3 weeks before our departure. I also have a full length dress for formal night.

Saturday97 - glad you got your doc's. Have you had the Konk Koolers before? Do you know how to make them? I have heard really good reviews for them. I think I read they have Midori in them, I'll pretty much drink anything with Midori in it:hyper:

I have an appt. with the accountant on Monday and I am way nervous. You guys make me jealous there is no way I could not have a cleaning person. They come every other Friday and the house is still discusting. I know it's my fault my two DD's are PIGGIES (I know you are reading this Linds) and don't want to help their poor momma. But it won't be long now and they will be gone and that will be bitter sweet.

Sounds like we have a great combination of personalities and I can't wait to share the DRINK OF THE DAY with you all.


:wave2:
Alice
 
Alice--

I couldn't agree more with your statement concerning our group of personalities!

We're going to be know onboard the Magic as those Crazy :crazy: May 1st Dis Board Cruisers!

Hmmm... That makes me wonder... Do you think there could be another "Dis Board" out there on the World Wide Web somewhere? Kinda like an alternate universe? Perhaps they plan meets and everything too! :eek:
 
Did anyone email your excursion choices? If you did have you hear anything yet?
 
Lisa--

I usually always opt for e-mail when reserving our excursions. DCL seems to be very efficient through this method.

I believe I e-mailed our excursion choices for the May 1st Cruise about two weeks ago, on a Sunday. DCL sent me a confirmation by e-mail on Tuesday and I just received a printed confirmation via regular mail late last week.

Have you decided on which excursions you'll be doing?
 
Bobbidiboo, there are definitely advantages to age. About Curves, I hope a month will help since I just started last week so I have a total of 8 days so far. I think I told someone else but I think you can print a trial coupon from their website http://www.curvesinternational.com . It's probably back a few pages but who wants to search. I'm paying on a direct debit cause I'm WAY lazy but you can cancel with a month's notice. It was about $75 to register and $30 a month plus taxes. I figure that's plenty reasonable.

We won't be the oldest on the cruise. I'm bringing my Mom and Aunt who are in their early 80s, but they won't be at the pool. I did get an "old lady" swimsuit on the advice of DD. (she'll pay for that remark) but I think my definition of "old lady" is a swimsuit that covers the subject adequately. We've all agreed not to gawk and just have fun. I'll join you at the pool with a big glass of iced tea with lemon and sugar since I never developed a taste for alcohol. And with us on the cruise, you guys don't even need a designated driver!

Heidi, hope the head gets better. I'm a big fan of Vicks Vaporub..much to the disgust of DH. But that's what made me feel better when I was little and my brain is programmed to feel better with Vicks on my nose when I have a cold.

Congrats to all you doc dancers. What fun to finally have part of the waiting over. Our clock is down to below 29 days to leaving time and I'm counting. Wish I could put a countdown clock on my desktop at work but not allowed.

I have NO idea what I'm wearing on formal night. If I can get in them, maybe some velvet pants and wrap. Otherwise just "Sunday clothes" although at our church now that's pretty casual so I'll change that to "Sunday go to meetin'" clothes and those of you from the South will understand. I've looked at semiformals but hate to spend the money for just two nights. I may check out the resale stores. There's another poster called CHEAPMOM. maybe I should steal her handle. I still have 3 weekends and some evenings to shop. (We're going to be in East Texas at our cabin doing absolutely nothing one weekend.)

I hit Academy Sports and Outdoors and must have found the $9.99 specials. I found a tropical long dress, a tropical shirt for DH and a cover up for me all for $9.99 each. That's my kind of sale. If I steal DD's lei, then I'm set for tropical night.

I thought I was set for packing and was planning to pack light for the cruise, then I remembered that we have 3 more days to plan for after the cruise since we're staying till the 11th to do the parks some...especially since we get in free with DD,

About all the kids. We may just have to treat ourselves like a "village" and everyone keep an eye out for them. Isn't that one of the great things about DCL...the sense of security?

Tomorrow's FRIDAY, YIPPEEEEEE.:wave: :wave:

Check you guys out later.
 
Good morning all--

Today Walt Disney Pictures releases Home on the Range! Yeee haw!

Ok, back to the "Disney Magic May 1st Cruise Daily Countdown Riddle":


gae114.jpg
 
OK everybody,how on earth do you manage tofill to more pages in such a short time.

Jason-I may sound stupid but what is "Home on the range" and the smilie is cool.Don´t worry,you are not the only one to pay taxes,i guess I worked to much last year and the reward is a big paycheck to the authoritys.But other than you,I will only have to file it till August,so-happy spending in WDW.

Ladies-this formal dress thing really worries me a little.I´m definitly not a gown or skirt person,but I got a nice pair of evening pants,a shirt that sparkles a little and a black Chassuble to go with it.I put on some weight over the last years due to medication and health reasons and I´m not comfortable with anything too body hugging.I´m not even sure I´ll make it to wear a bathing suit.Let´s wait and see.But usually drinks help(know what I mean?)

Still no docs for us,Im hoping for them at the beginning of next week.
The dentist was a real pain,over 90 minutes,but luckily the worst is over and I´ll be fit at cruise time.

Only 20 more days.

Good Morning to you all. I'm actually ready for work a few minutes early (very rare) so I have time to post a note.

Conny, glad you're going to be dentally fit for the cruise. I'd hate for you to have an impediment to eating all that food! Don't sweat the evening deal. I know I'm not going to be in "evening" wear unless something shows up REALLY cheap and even with Curves, I have too many of them to like form fitting myself. Actually, I have black jersey pants and I've been looking for a top "with a little bit of sparkle" myself so you won't be alone. We can't all dress like princesses.princess:

Everyone else, yea to the docs, hope the excursion paperwork comes in and only 28 DAYS left!!!!!!!!!

I think that calls for a bouncy bounce.
:jumping2: :jumping1: :jumping2:

Conny--

Home on the Range is Disney's new animated feature that will be released here in the U.S. today. Europe will probably begin to release the movie in a month or two.
 
I love the threecircles web site. I check it every day. Okay, I'm lying. I check it 10 times a day. Anyway,...... what is my most likely dining rotation if we (DH, myself, and DS-6) have late dining?? I want to use that cruise matrix that Jason designed.
I haven't received my DOCS yet. I booked through a TA and I call her so often she thinks I'm stalking her. And since I booked a GTY I don't know my cabin #.
Oh well,..gotta call Lisa, my travel agent.

Lisa I too was worried about the excursions but I finally received an email yesterday and they said that I would receive the confirmations in the mail soon, I had faxed in my choices at the 60 day mark Mar 2nd, but didn't hear anything until yesterday. They did tell me that I was booked for my choices as of Mar 2nd.(also I did email them last week to see if they had gotten my fax) maybe this little prod helped to get a reply?

Alice thanks for calling and checking about the docs I guess being a DVC member means we get them last:rolleyes: I guess I will bring my full length gown I wore on last cruise I always love to look at our formal pictures when back home!!

CM_Mom thanks for the site to get a coupon print out for Curves, I did it and I am going to go talk to them tomorrow I guess it's never too early to get started on getting physical::yes:: Lucky you , 3 more days of Disney after the cruise, do you get a good deal for a Resort too through your DD? Don't worry about the swimsuit I too have a one piece so called "old lady" suit, could never go two piece again!!!

Conny, I am taking my DGS to Home On The Range tomorrow we have been watching the previews for ever and can't wait to see it, About a group of cows who want to save the Farm, if you like Country Music they say lots of original songs by quite a few Country Music Stars!

How about you Jason going to go see it, it must be playing at Downtown Disney I just love that theater!!

Heidi this is for you<a href='http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008' target='_blank'><img src='http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/10/10_1_119.gif' border=0></a> gross I know but you asked for it!!! He had a few too many or maybe didn't take his seasickness pills LOL

Today my Daycare group are watching Brother Bear, bought Wed. we always have a movie day on Friday and of course it is always a Disney one::MickeyMo Has everyone seen yet already?

Speaking of movies, does anyone know what ones will be shown onboard ship?

Pretty soon Happy sailing!!!<a href='http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008' target='_blank'><img src='http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/7/7_2_117.gif' border=0></a>

Good FRIDAY morning to you all!!! I am actually feeling a little better today. It's amazing what a straight shot of whiskey can do to a cold!:p I think the whiskey and the zicam both are helping...darn yet another reason to drink.

Alice--ROFLMAO about going topless in Acapulco! Now see topless I could NEVER pull off because all the boob went to my BUTT! I am not endowed enough (hence the need for the miracle bra I chucked at Tom Jones's *unit*) LOL about the mormons and the catholics. I've always said how come wine was good enough for Jesus and not me?? ROFLMAO Oh well I'll keep up the tradition of being the mormon partier (had to edit that I think it said moron LOL) I think you are right about the personalities on here as well...and everyone on board is going to be SO jealous they aren't us!:smooth: I had a house cleaner for awhile but I just couldnt stand to be here and watch her clean so I stopped the service. I would like to start it back up again though because I am SO sick of cleaning! Sorry to hear your nervous about seeing the accountant! When we were in business for ourselved I HATED that damn accountant more than anyone in the world! He always screwed us out of money! Good LUCK!

Jason--LOL at the alternative board suggestion! I have wondered that as well. Maybe if we see a huge group we'll have to ask them that.;) Also we need to figure out how we are going to spot people because I see your pic on the website now but lord knows if I get a few shots down me I may not be the sharpest tack in the box!(no comments from anyone in the peanut gallery)

Lisa--We called our 1 and only excursion in and haven't received squat! OH well if we can't go we can't go..then I'll just have to find me a bar to drown my sorrow in. What did you decide to do as an excursion?

Reine--I use vicks vaporub as well and it gags my whole family. I am feeling much better today though! I sense the countdown calendar going down too but not nearly fast enough! I plan on buying my family some tropical wear while in port. I have a "tropical" type sundress things, Ryan has a TON of tropical shirts (he collects them on every vacation..some of them however have that vacation stupidity written all over them where it looked really good when we were on the vacation but we get home and go WHAT THE ? were we thinking?) My taste for alcohol is pretty weak as well. I like some wines and mostly gin with about 3 whole limes in it to counteract the alcohol taste! :teeth: Can't drink rum or tequila from doing slammers one night right after I turned legal (and married 3 days earlier so you get the point) but ewww now I can only stomach gin and a little vodka if there is no gin and then some wine!

Conny---we are wrtiting fools around here. Too much pent up excited energy for me so I focus it on here where people understand and "know" me! LOL Don't stress about the formal thing...your outfit will be just fine!! I have a pair of nice black pants and a sparkly jacket I may wear on the semi-formal night instead but I dont know yet..gotta get the help from Ryan on that. I understand about putting on some weight...I have decided that's why I've packed on a few pounds is after my hysterectomy (or that's my story and I'm sticking to it). And then you add in a little "liquid courage" and all is well with the world! Hope you get docs soon! Great job on getting the dentist done! I can't imagine keeping my mouth open for 90 min though unless they put me out!!!! 20 days for you which means 26 for me! YIPPEEE
:Pinkbounc

Allison--lol about checking the website..you need to come here more often and "party" with us on this board as well! Hi I'm Heidi and I'm the May 1 Dis Board addict! ROFLMAO Sorry to hear you haven't got your docs yet or a room number! I hope they come soon!!! I haven't got a clue as to what your dining rotation will be...nor mine but I dont care...I go to each restaurant basically the same amount of time so I guess what we get is what we get but then we are on early seating so I dont know if that makes a difference.

Brenda--THANK YOU SO MUCH for the puking green emoticon! That is exactly what I need!! LOL We bought Brudder Bear (as Tanner calls it) on Wednesday and I think the kids have worn it out. They were watching Cat in the Hat until I broke down and bought Brother Bear. As for the Home on the Range..I think we'll wait til we get on the ship as I'm sure they will be playing that one for awhile! I have been doing Yoga at home with Ryan at night and then doing Pilates, Total Gym and the treadmill alternating each day and doing yoga every night and while the scale says I still weigh the same I sure feel different! Maybe it's just wishful thinking but I think I may actually end up looking ok for this trip! I only wear a 2 piece because I still refuse to give up being young! I do have a few 1 pieces I wear in public here so that if I see someone I know they wont see me in a bikini! LOL Your daycare sounds so great! You are definitely very organized with the movie day and all! If I had to put my kids in Daycare I would want them with you that is for sure!!!

Well this is epic long (not a record for me yet...but I'm sure in time I will beat my own post length record) but I really need to go clean out my toaster oven since it stinks when it cooks toast like something is burning on the toaster part and need to actually get out of my workout clothes and into regular everyday mode!! I'm sure I'll be back on here today within a few hours since I'm the addict!

Heidi
 
Hydster,
I may not post often but I don't miss a thing. i never miss a day on the dis board. i feel like I know you all personally. I am looking forward to the Dis meet on the ship, just so there is a bar available.
'Not too worried about not receiving my docs yet. But I am sure the TA would like for me to quit calling her to see if I have a room assignment yet. And, as of noon today, I am still in GTY status. She should just be glad the weekend is here and she will have 2 days without hearing from me.
i know this month is going to fly by. Easter is next weekend and my DS, Noah will be turning 6 on the 17th. I am in school every Saturday studying to be a sommelier(wine steward). So YOU KNOW i will be doing the stem-to-stern wine tasting.
I also homeschool Noah and we will be celebrating his Kindergarten graduation on the ship.
I look forward to hearing from everyone. And I can't wait to wear my thong bikini to the Goofy pool. LOL noooo waaaay!! See you,...Allisonpirate: ::MickeyMo ::MinnieMo
