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

Who?! MOI?!

 

[LindaBabe]

I have read all the posts for today. Are you all NUTS?!!

Who US? I resemble that remark! No. Not Nuts. Actually, we're just ordinary people with ordinary lives , too much dreary routine and too little laughter - who have decided to cut loose. So order up a tiara, duckie, and join the fun!

Kathy, Actually there ARE several other bears - one hand made and larger than me that I won at a women's outdoors weekend; one Steiff, from when we lived in Germany; one I built for Bruce that started this whole building thing & who wears ski gear all year round; one, our granddaughter gave him for Christmas; and OC, who looks like Tinkabelle only he's a boy, because Bruce built him for his birthday this year. BUT they don't all get dressed up. Well, OC wears boy clothes - he got a wet suit for this cruise. And Dimples. . . who has enough clothes to outfit ALL the rest and your 28 as well, even AFTER downsizing her closet!

I've always wanted to visit New Orleans - ever since I read Saratoga Trunk in junior high. It seemed to be the epitome of grace and romance. And with all that good food and jazz, what's not to like? (Diva, I'm sure when PuppyMommy has a chance to think about it, she'll realize she meant SHE didn't like living there . . . )

Woo and Bill? Made any great cakes lately?

Just got off the phone with my Mom and my grandmother was taken to the hosptial today and is in intensive care. Well I will talk to you tomorrow. Good Night .
My Vote for DWTS is Joey is going tonight !!

 

[disneediva]

Linda, I will bring Tinkabelle's costume and she would love a group photo with Dimples and OC

Lynn, I tend to think Joey is going tonight too, but I would prefer that Mario go..hope your Grandma gets better

Off to watch DWTS

I've been trying to keep up with your posts, but you people really are a little nutty. Seriously.

Someone refresh my memory for the gift exchange thing. I can't find the day/time. I want to make sure I'm ok to get there before I buy something.

You know your ready for your Disney vacation when.......
Your entire family crowds around the table gasping at the hidden mickey in the spilled steak sauce.

Hi Nana Heads!!!

An Official Welcome to Lisa and Greg. Can't wait to meet both of you. Now, neither of you will see me in a tiara as the one I want is so big and heavy, it's not going to fit in my suitcase. So, you'll see a tiaraless female DISer at the Promenade Lounge. I couldn't talk DH Dave and friend Bob into wearing one either.

Lorna: Did you get your gifts at Bronners yesterday? I ordered my gifts online from Bronners several weeks ago.

Bob: Love the quotes.

Grills at Cocoa Beach: Great food and location. We were there last September before a DCL cruise. Show your out of state driver's license and you get a discount on your meal. Hope everyone is feeling better. No sickies on our cruise, although I'll make an exception for some of us!!!

Christmas: Gifts are bought and wrapped. My awful (Dave's description) wall tree is decorated and hung on the wall. I've made reservations at a hotel on the east side of Detoit that has an indoor waterpark for our Christmas gathering with our Michigan kids/grandkids. We're celebrating 12/23-12/24. Can't wait to have fun in the water with my little angels.

This weekend: Heading to Cleveland tomorrow with DD, and 2 grandkids. My DD and her 2.5 year old son will see the Wiggles tomorrow night. On Friday, we head to Morgantown, WV to see my 2 grandkids, DS and DDIL. Back home on Sunday.

Jeff: Are you ignoring me????!!!! I assume our bet is still on for WVU/Pitt.

Shell: You've been having nightmares about us and DCL!!! I did that last year. Had dreams for about 2 weeks before the cruise. The common theme was not being able to find my birth certificate.

Have a great weekend everyone. Talk to you on Monday.

Jan

Oh my Gosh....you guys are getting really crazy I am really starting to get scared about meeting all of you.....ok not all just a couple who shall go nameless .....

Anyway, I dont do bears...however, I have cement geese...you know about 10-15years ago they were very popular...you buy them clothes and dress them....I have Henrietta and Gracie....Gracie is the baby... I havent changed their outfits for about 5 years now.....I got boared. They just sit there at look at me every night in their same outfits.... poor geeseys.....

Kathy: I really tried very hard to get on this morning at work, but the boss did not have a meeting....so alas I was unable to sneak on since I sit right outside her office.

Be back later gators.....

Denise

 

[dkmjgal]

Man is this cruise going to be a blast!!! If our personalities are anything like our posts...we may get blacklisted from Disney Cruises

WELL...I DID IT....I bought some Christmas presents today I may even wrap them tomorrow

Gotta go watch the end of DWTS...I really want Joey to stick around but I don't think he will.

Have a great night!

Kelly

NOT JOEY!!

 

[PuppyMommy]

Good thing I don't get offended easily, .... I was born and raised in New Orleans and wouldn't want to or can't imagine living anywhere else

Sorry Wendy, one of my bosses is from NO and I tease her as well. Bob is trying to bring me up to speed on how to communicate on the thread without offending.
My boss grew up near the Baptist Seminary (that's where I lived) and it broke my heart to hear her talk about what it looks like now. I still have very dear friends there who feel the same as you; Wouldn't live anywhere else. Hope you can forgive me.

 

[PuppyMommy]

As soon as the tux arrives, Shelle, you will be the third to know.

Love the bears, I would dress up the cats and dogs (furry children) if DH would let me get away with it.

Yeah, this cruise is going to be a real hoot! Can't wait to meet you all so we can laugh together in person.

 

[JanDave]

Anyone attached to a Pal Mickey? When we were on a DCL cruise in 2004, a couple brought their Pal Mickey to dinner each night, with a different outfit on that the wife made for Mickey. Pal Mickey was the best dressed pirate!

[LindaBabe]

I wonder if gators eat bananas. . . that might be one way to get rid of them!

 

[pgfour]

Good evening everyone! Some gator food for you, Linda!!!

Another busy day here in the Prairie State. At least the temps were in the mid-60's!

Well I got one thing checked off my long list for the cruise -- finally made my hair appointment! I was actually having nightmares that my stylist (beautician?? what do you call them?) wasn't available so I had to go somewhere else and she just hacked away at my hair so it was totally uneven and choppy. And I think my hair turned orange, too!

Welcome back Lisa! Good to hear from you!

Not much else going on here. DH may get me a "new" laptop to replace the other one, but we'll see what happens!

Off to soak in the hot tub!

Cheri

P.S. Did any of you space "nuts" see Mercury pass in front of the sun today? I didn't, but it sounded rather cool! Night Night!

 

[Dixielady908]

night everyone......talk with ya all tomorrow


Denise

 

[BelievesinFairies]

Thanks for reminding me!! I have to make my hair appt for next week. I will be working the 5 days before Thanksgiving...so I really need to do that!!

Oh...and I hear ya about the laptop. He is always looking to upgrade. I am attempting to forbid my dh from bringing his on the cruise. I'll let you know how that goes....

 

[disneediva]

Lisa, not a problem, no forgiveness needed..I am just a die hard cajun girl, ask Bob about the dead crawfish, and after Katrina I am slightly protective of my hometown..I actually went to high school right down the street from the baptist seminary

Shell, Joey's gone who will we root for I'm thinking Emmitt

Linda, I loved the photo, your kids are adorable, that Dimples is quite stylish

Umm Mutt where are ya handsome, its been awhile since you've tormented us, I mean posted

Wendy

 

[disneediva]

Wait wait
Lisa did you say Bob was teaching you how not to offend on these boards :rotfl

Shell you let that comment pass, GF you are slipping...You too Cheri I was waiting for a zinger

 

[YippySkippy]

WOW! I'm trying to "catch up" with you all on your posts so that we will "know each other". Hooo wheee!! Y'all are some postin' fools!!

I'm currently in Anaheim right now, speaking at a convention. Do I have time to go to Disneyland? Um, no, and I'm feeling an odd pull to the Mouse. I cannot WAIT to go on the cruise, I even made my poor audience listen to my cruise plans.

Quick question...anyone with kids from ages 6 - 10? I have an almost 8 year old and he would love to get to know your kids.

Hope I'm not too late to get to know you all before our trip.

Looking forward to meeting y'all,

Lauri
