Wild Turkeys and Dancing Banana Heads Cruise 11/25/06

[cruisemutt]

Uh....Kathy....Pat? I'm actually I'm amazed that I'm up this early....if its a beautiful sunrise or if the view of our arrival at St. Thomas is really stunning or if there are a bunch of naked mermaids swimming along side the ship at dawns break....DONT GET ME UP!!!! 4:00am???? 5:00am???? ick.

Kathy...you'll be right next to Bob....get HIM up....I hear he loves early rising!!! I think he takes two creams with his coffee....(c'mon buddy,...take one for the team)

Have a great day everyone...I'm heading downstairs for more coffeeeeeeeeeee......

Good Morning Everyone-

Just doing my part to get to 4000!

Umm...4:30-5:00...no thanks. I'm still getting used to getting up at 6:30 with my DD. But I will be all set for St. Thomas day, right?

I hope everyone has a great day! I'm off to enjoy a bike ride while the weather is still favorable here in the Northeast.

Actually, my alarm is set for 6:00 a.m., but normally the dogs are waking us up at 5:30 for their potty break. They need to adjust to daylight savings time!

Now, on the cruise, I will be up early. At least one morning, I will be up prior to sunrise to take pictures. I will also be up VERY late one night to get pictures of the ship while no one is up and around!

And Mutt, I don't drink coffee. Actually, as of about Sept. last year, I am caffeine free! I have caffeine occaisionally, but I don't have that addiction anymore (hated those headaches when I couldn't find a Diet Coke!). Got sick last year and could drink anything but water for nearly a week. Never noticed the caffeine withdrawals because I was feeling so bad, but I committed to not get hooked again!

Have a great day everyone!

Good mornin' everyone!!

You east coast early risers must feel like it's almost afternoon already!
I'm up by 6:30 (DH sometimes up sooner so he can play Strat-o-Matic baseball or basketball before going to work!!) to get DD off to kindergarten.

It's nice to get up early on the cruise and walk around while most are still sleeping.

Another cool thing I did on our last cruise was go for a run on the Promenade as we were heading into Nassau. You get the view and the sea breeze and you almost forget you're exercising!

So far another cloudy day on tap. It's supposed to start clearing up and warming up as we head into the weekend. I sure hope so!

Wendy -- have you ever watched that Reality TV channel? Talk about getting your fix. They have marathons of various shows (I think it's an off-shoot of Fox, so it doesn't have ALL the shows.) so you can catch up in one day!

So I guess I'll have to watch Dancing with the Stars to see who gets kicked off tonight! Ugh!

Well, off to work. Have a splendid day!

Cheri

By the way, Mutt, did we convince you to go to the Def Leppard concert??!! Pour some sugar on me. . .

 

[pgfour]

Hey! I just noticed I'm a Mouseketeer I earned my ears!

Add another post to the total as well!!!

Cheri (Boy, am I easily amused!)

Well in our house we get up between 5 and 6 -- or at least my wife does. I loll around until the kids jump in bed with me and then I get to watch an episode of Sponge Bob or Little Einsteins (depending on which kid it is). That is unless it's days when the little one decides a 2:30 a.m. wake up call is in order. Thankfully that doesn't happen often, but when it does.... it becomes a multiple starbucks day.

On the August cruise, I didn't do the early morning visits to the top deck as I had hoped - because I wasn't feeling well hte first couple of days and then I just got lazy. This trip, I'm bound and determined to do better.

I'm off to Toronto for a client meeting later today and tomorrow. I'll check in later from the great white north. Hope it's not snowing!

Good Morning All:

I to, like Tiggerking, hope to get up early on the ship. Maybe I will walk a couple laps to wake up. Hunter and I were up early the first morning. It was beautiful, but windy. I have some great shots of the sun rise. I hope everyone has a productive day and a safe day.

wendy

 

[cruisemutt]

10 it is, Wendy....you and that southern charm thing....
DW mayyyyy have something to say about that.

Ok, gang,....in the news! I took in a stray...she was huddled up on the side of our house, her cord was all tangled up in wires and debris. She was cold and hungry and scared as hell. Now she's in our florida room curled up on on of the chairs with a belly full of kibble and some fresh water. I still have to call the humane society and the police to see if anyone reported her but....who knows? Woo and I may be parents again...(everyone keep the fingers crossed---she really seems like a sweetie). I NEVER should have adopted the name mutt....I'm such a sap for this stuff---I DONT EVEN LIKE DOGS! grrrrr.....(no comments Wendy...I'm still that mean ol guy from ohio, lest we forget)

Ok....time to go do something productive....
heres a pic of her.....

That puppy has one of the most precious faces I have ever seen! How could anyone let something like that slip away. But, for the sake of you two, maybe she won't get claimed.

But Mutt, if she gets claimed, you are hereby required to get your DW a new puppy. There is NO WAY she is going to be able to go puppyless if the owners of this little beauty shows up!

Good morning, Banana Heads

So I'm driving into work today ... a day like no other ... when my cell phone rings and DH informs me that I may be a mother. I'm still a little in shock ... still being very cautious (don't wanna fall in love quite yet) ... but who knows? She is a cutie! (PS: we always have that crazy hand of fate with us. When we were taking Sammy in to be put down last year, the last song we heard on the radio was Ozzy's "See you on the other side". Today, the first song heard when Bill turned it on for our visitor was " ... she's so easy to love ...")

For you Reality-addicts, last night I placed my very first vote ever for a reality show ... I voted for Dilana on Rock Star. She is amazing! I had to record Dancing so haven't seen Springer and the rest yet ... and tonight is Rock Star finals so it may have to wait another day till I get caught up with the rest of you!

 

[DutchsMommy]

woo - a girl after my own heart - I am addicted to Rockstar for sure!!! I like Delana but have to side with Lukas (being canadian and all!). I'll be recording tonights episode!!!!!

Thoughts are with Steve, Ester and Laura - hope all is well.


I'm off to Toronto for a client meeting later today and tomorrow. I'll check in later from the great white north. Hope it's not snowing! No - we don't get snow for at least another week or so - my igloo needs a new roof Actually - pack your umbrella 'cause it's supposed to rain today and tomorrow - and a light jacket, it has been quite cool the past few days. Where abouts are you meeting?? Downtown? I'm up in North TO this week. The project I was leading got cancelled due to budget constraints so I am in the process of looking for a new job (just within the company - no biggie). But.....this was a little out of the blue so I am not exactly ready - spend all day yeaterday fixing up my resume etc. What a pain!

Hope all is well with everyone - will check back later and hopefully post a bit more!

 

[favoriteslave]

Woo & Mutt, she is a cutie pie. Maybe she was drawn to your house because she knew you were good people.

So if you are to keep her, what would you name her?

 

[dkmjgal]

DutchsMommy and Shell - I knew I liked you grils! We are total Rockstar fans in this house. Wasn't the finale great? I thought they all did really well. It will be very interesting to see the outcome tonight. I have liked Dilana all along (although she did frighten me a little in the beginning ) but Toby has really won me over these past few weeks too...nothing like that Aussie accent, hu?

Mutt and Shell - want an adorable puppy. Keep us posted on your adventures.

See you later-
Kelly

Was just joking about the snow. I hear that kind of stuff all the time from my west coast client. It's a bit nippy here today, so you never know! Yep I'll be downtown. Sorry to hear about the job situation - that IS a pain so I wish you the best in finding the right fit - even if it is within the same company, it's still change.

 

[disneediva]

the times a ticking away,Kathy it looks you, Bob and I will be te welcoming party at the port.

[jd99]

Just to get everyone in the mood. Us at Castaway Cay in August. Looks good on a rainy gloomy day here in Pittsburgh....

 

[cruisemutt]

Jeff and Mina....nice looking family ya got there!!!

Ok, everyone....I jumped the gun. I called the police and the humane society and someone filed a report. Dog and owner are reunited and happy together once again. Awww.....phoooey.

I guess that means Guido is king of the castle again and we'll wait for our op to get the golden we wanted. Still ashame though.... Honey(that's her name)seemed to be a really nice pooch.
