When are you Going? Post Your Dates and Find A Match!!! Things to do! Peeps to Meet!

[bpmorley]

People here on the DIS do have a tendency to get their panties in a wad over ridiculous things sometimes and go to extremes to prove their point.

I think that is partially true. I also think it's hard to tell "tone of voice" in text. Someone could be joking around but another can read a post and take it a completely different way.

Linda... maybe we could have adjoining rooms.. or next door to each others.... since I am driving.. I can drop you off or if you want to hang out with us so much the better!!! I love the lime green bldg facing the lagoon though.... YOu get to see fire works at the 3rd floor.. last year thats all I did... had my chair out... my ice spiked coffee and sat till the wee hours at nite... very calming....

We could do a Grand Gathering with Wic and her gang to timmy, what do you think???

 

[lustergirl]

Luster, I done plumb feel like a two timing woman in staying at POP instead of my second home, Sports. It just will be more convenient. I doubt I will get the same service that I get at Sports though since they all know me so well. I am also dreading that longer walk to the bus stops but all these folks will make it worthwhile. If it were possible for us to travel down together I would be glad of your company but maybe you will figure out a way to go in September any old way? If you could share a room with someone it is downright cheap. I figure it is going to cost me around $50 a day for the room and dining and I have AP's. It costs me more to stay home. Please do not tell my Sports friends that I have defected, this once??

aubriee, not only am I not afraid to eat alone I sometimes take myself to a movie, hold my own hand and even have to slap my own face when I get fresh. I will copy down your info (you are eating at some of my favorite places) and see what happens when it gets a bit closer as I am one to keep my promises and I try not to make ones I cannot keep. I would love to meet you (if I have not already )

clhcpaca, is there anyway you could find someone you know to share your room and make free dining FREE? Just wondering. You would want someone you really know though as you will be sharing a room key etc.

I wish I could ride along with Pooh as it would make the miles go so quickly. She is very entertaining and interesting.

Linda,

Good Morning! Darn disney and their free dining promo. I am looking at Aug 29- September 2. I told my younger son yesterday "Disney is offering their free dining once again for september." He then said "I miss disney and didn't go last year." So I guess that settles it. My husband is going to think I am crazy!! I will be staying at AS Sports preferred view- my favorite building is Surf's Up #1, but of course you already knew that. I work to go to disney now!! It's all good!

Mac, please forgive me but I really do have brain damage. I am anemic and that causes me to have too few red blood cells which carry oxygen throughout the body and by the time they get to my brain they are out of steam. I remember the LGM from Macraven cause it pops up on my screensaver from time to time and yes, I do have it. Also we were in building 7 in September about two doors down from the end toward the food court. I just looked it up. We were there twice last year and I get confused so very easily. This is a picture of our window at Xmas which is pretty much the same as I had in September except the dry erase board was on the door. Check out what else I found while searching for pictures. I had plumb forgot the surprise that Pooh did for me awhile back. Plumb tickled me to pieces too. She sure is special. SG/Linda

you won't believe this linda but 3 years ago i had the end room facing the football field in building 7.

that was a great place for me.



i remember the can of corn.......

This will be my first solo trip, I'm going to a pin trading event 9/4-9/8, and staying at ASMu. Just finished my solo reservations, I can't wait to be able to ride what *I* want to ride without worrying about where my daughter and husband might be off doing! I haven't traveled alone since probably 1999, so this should be interesting!

edited: I just found out Ants won't be able to join us for Le Cellier on 09/07/08 (shame on you Poohbear for having your bachelorette party on our Le Cellier night. Just kidding! You guys have a great time!). Anyway, it looks like there will be an empty seat at Le Cellier on 09/07/08 6:20pm. (maybe two seats- Klofan is your friend still going to be able to join you?)

Hey aubriee, yes, please keep that seat open. She said she is now 70/30 about going, so we'll see. Thanks.

 

[SlightlyGoofy]

Ants, bless your little pea picking heart. I truly appreciate your offer and know that you mean it but there is no way that I intend on bogging anyone down on this trip. I am middle aged (if you live in Russia where everyone seems to live past 100 or at least it feels like it). My definition is that I am too old to want to take care of anyone anymore, fulltime, as I have done all my life BUT too young to want anyone to take care of me. I might join you up there to see the fireworks one night though. I do drive to AK and MGM and am available to take a couple of folks in that direction on the days I plan to be there or to take folks to or from DTD or Boardwalk etc. I will even pick up and deliver water and such if anyone wants.

If I should feel a sudden urge to 'end it all' I will join you on the ToT but I would not hold my breath waiting for me. The hot seat at Millionaire and the ride through Atlanta is as much as my heart can stand.

Mac, I have a feeling that you must have special friends at Sports, as do I, as we both seem to get the very best rooms. Do you send them Christmas cards too?

Luster, how wonderful!!! Now you just lock that boy in the room like you did last time and you and I will get together for a visit sometime when we are both there. Heck, bring the kid with. I like kids, even older boy type ones.

bpmorley, my tone is usually 'tongue in cheek' but they do not have an icon for that.

aubriee, I do think I remember it being AK that the can of corn thing happened. Is it not odd what sticks in the mind and what does not?? Did you also notice the 'banned' lanyard?? I bought a dozen of them and only have a couple left as I gave most of them away. They are now collectors items. I like the idea of a can or corn reminding ourselves not to take ourselves too seriously or demanding that others be exactly like us. (how boring)

I am getting excited about the trip and even if something happens and I do not get to go it will be fun dreaming. Thanks for dreaming along with me you all!!

you told me you saved the orange mickey.

i'm touched.


middle age is today's 40......



yes, i do.

some of the cm at the check in have been there a long time now.

 

[bpmorley]

OK then. Is anyone going to be around 10/17-10/25???

 

[SlightlyGoofy]

I did not sleep one blessed wink last night and then, toward morning, when I thought I might get a couple of hours, the phone rang. It was a wrong number. It was my daughter. She had rung my house by mistake. I am touched to know that I am on her speed dial somewhere. Maybe she will call again sometime???

macraven, I am like Blanche Dubois. I depend on the kindness of strangers and am touched by the many small, and not so small, thoughtful things that people do for me. I do not take them for granted. Sept '07 a family was huddled outside our door as it poured rain and I opened our door and invited them in. The next day I found a beautifully colored picture with a thank you note. I do not get such from those I spent 3 days in labor with or 18 years of voluntary servitude. My husband and I both were very sick that trip and he spent 3 days in bed and I spent 2. I was so very sorry to have missed you. FYI and anyone else who is interested - you have to knock very loudly as I cannot hear polite knocks on the door.

OK then. Is anyone going to be around 10/17-10/25???

Bpmorley, I most sincerely hope that ALL of us are going to be around, somewhere, on those dates. Just probably not at DW since that is after Free Dining and we are a thrifty albeit frequent visitors to the Promised Land.

My wife and I are going to WDW 9/7 for 5 nights. We would love to hook up w/ some people while we're there, I love the rides and my doesn't. So if anyone wants to setup a meet send me a PM to exchange e-mails. WE are 29 no kids, and love Disney.

Thanks
Earl

 

[PennConn]

Rich,
Yes, you are eligible for free dining. It can be added to any pkg. If you have a Disney VISA you could call starting yesterday. If you don't have a Disney VISA, then it will be available for the general public starting this Thursday (April 10th).
The VISA code is CMK for the basic dining plan and CMP for the DxDDP. I don't know what the code will be for the general public. The basic plan is free, but you can upgrade to the DxDDP for $32.00/day/person.

Hi Aubriee

I just received an E-Mail from my Travel Agent confirming that Adrian and I are now set up for Free Dining. I think we ended up paying more for the room, so it wasn't totally free, but we did save $254 overall!

Send Aubriee a PM if you would like join us for some of our meals - She somehow ended up being in charge of the ADR's!

looking for someone to say hello or have coffee with.I am a senior with great love of disney.

Man, I think that old age is catching up with me. I have heard of folks throwing their backs out and always just figured they lifted the wrong way. Since I used to lift weights when I were a mere child I thought I was immune because I know how to lift. Working in the yard yesterday I simply leaned over to pick something up and got a sharp bite of reality. Ouch!!

Earl, I guarantee you and your wife will have a fabulous time with this interesting and entertaining bunch. Heck they are even nice to boot. I will look forward to meeting you both.

PennConn, congratulations on saving the cash! That is over 60 Mickey Bars that you can buy! Sure hope you have a long stay planned!

More yardwork to do today. Think I will use the hoe and just scrape stuff up to pick up some other day. When you cannot work hard you have to work smart.
