Will TarzansKat meet Captain Jack? ~A Pirate's Life for 3 Pre-Trippie~ We're back!

[TarzansKat]

Yeay, I am the Indy fan!

And we love you for it.

I gingerbread! I even burn gingerbread scented candles at Christmas.

BORG!

Osbourne Lights are at MGM every night -- they are way cool!

Awesome, thanks for the heads up. I'd love to see them.

I thought of you today, TK. I just found out that the King Tut exhibit is coming to Atlanta in November!

DUDE! Where's my car? No, jk. DUDE! KING TUT!!!! Now, I need to go to Atlanta. Dagnabbit!

Remember in Tomb of the Golden Bird when Carter finds the tomb and Emerson can barely contain himself! I love Egyptian stuff almost as much as I love Disney and Indiana Jones!

It's funny you should mention that because I was just re-reading it. I love, love, love the one before it too, is it the Serpent on the Crown? I cried at the end during the first time I read it, and then my heart just swelled over Daoud. Don't you love Daoud?

Okay...what are you guys talking about? Book series?? Do tell!!

 

[TarzansKat]

You lucky, lucky woman!!!

I am sure you will get used to the idea of not bringing DS. It is always hard leaving a child for the first time!

I am sending you tons of Pixie dust.

Thanks for the dust, I'll need it!!!

I am curious to hear what you think of all the Christmas goings on!

There will be a trip report, scout's honor.

Yes, come to Atlanta and walk like an Egyptian with me to the King Tut exhibit. Dates: November 15 through May 22!

Yes, Serpent in the Crown is the one before (that's the one I have signed by Elizabeth Peters) . I am such a fan that I got more and more excited the closer it got in the series to 1922 when Carter discovered Tut's tomb. Here's one of those quirky connections I am always making: the poem that Emerson recites at the very end is about King Arthur.

Daoud and so many others! They are like family to me (only in a fictional sense).

I can't remember: have you read any of her other stuff? She has a new Vicky Bliss coming out in August -- hurray! Also, she writes under the pen name Barbara Michaels -- those are kind of spooky, supernatural stuff and also very good.

Me too -- it's my favorite series of all-time -- I own all of them -- most in hardcover. They start out in the 1880s and the last one was set in 1922. I think there are 18 in all.

They won't disappoint!

I'm seriously going to have to figure out a way to get down there. I wanted to go when it was in Philly with my sister...ahem...but that never panned out. Thought it would be a fun weekender for us. Ah well.

Yes, Serpent in the Crown is the one before (that's the one I have signed by Elizabeth Peters)

Wow, signed by her. I think I would go very teenage giggly schoolgirl if I got to meet her. These books have meant so much to me.

You know I never realized that, I'll have to pay closer attention when I reread it.

Daoud and so many others! They are like family to me (only in a fictional sense).

Yes, I feel like I know them.

I can't remember: have you read any of her other stuff? She has a new Vicky Bliss coming out in August -- hurray! Also, she writes under the pen name Barbara Michaels -- those are kind of spooky, supernatural stuff and also very good.

I have read a couple, but none of them really peaked my fancy. Perhaps you could recommend a really good one to sway me over?

I was on amazon.com the other day, and I belive there's another coming out this year. If I'm lucky, it'll be right before my vacation. Beach reading anyone?

I think it's very important to have a goal in mind. And although I am uber-psyched about my new countdown ticker, it's time to bring the focus back around.

Back to my favorite pirate.

Recently, a thread began and launched a little obsession. I check it daily. I look to see if I can find "my Jack Sparrow." And then, I finally did. You know. The one. Besides DH.

So beggin' apologies from the original poster, and if they'd like me to remove it I will, but I pirated this photo right onto my own happy little computer and it's now my wallpaper. So I can stare at it every day. For three months, 2 weeks, and 6 days.

Ahhhh.....

Need I say more?

What is the thread exactly, just pictures of all the WDW Jack Sparrows?

Oh yes, inquiring minds want to know!!!

 

[TarzansKat]

Wait a tick....

I'll go find it....

But I recommend covering your keyboards as excessive drooling may be possible with the viewing of this thread.

Show us your Jack Sparrow...

They need a drool smilie, that is the only way to properly convey my feelings after reading that thread.

What a lovely way to spend my evening. Don't tell Chuck.....

Shhh....what the menfolk don't know won't hurt them....

DBF was looking over my shoulder today. And he saw the words "food porn" and spent the afternoon trying to write a rather interesting story involving vegtables....


All my response was: "MEN!!"

Oh, good lord.

That is too funny. I actually told DH about food porn, so he was in the know. I wonder what he would have thought otherwise?

Gives a whole new meaning to this guy...

Trust me it took him a while to stop and we looked at some resturant reviews with pictures.

All work and no play makes DBF a dull boy. But work a whole weekend and DBF can be a little punchy... in the funny way....
