One week From Today....

Post by Princess Susi » Thu Dec 13, 2007 9:33 am

One week from today we will be in Disneyland!!! YAY! I will be posting our schedule so we can try to meet up with some of the wonderful DL CM's. I will PM my cell# to you all too. So we have Polar, Mainstreeter, Purpura, Lady Ulrike, Pattimelt who else at DL do I need to put on my list to meet! If you work at DL, we want to see your smiling through gritted teeth face! Hey, it is Christmas, The Park will reach max occupancy and gates will close and Ssssss Geeeees will wail and worse and the Park will be so crowded that if you want to go anywhere you just have to be pulled along with the crowd...am I getting close to how it is at the holidays? It was like that last year for us. We love the Park at Christmas, even with the Ssssss Geeeees because it is so magical and shiny(!) and we get to see our CM friends that we know well at the DL Hotel, and we will get to meet more of you this trip! We will also be meeting Disneymom at the park, so maybe we can all share a big Christmas hug!
I cannot wait to meet you all and will post here our plans and resses and hope to hear where we might be able to find you all!!!!

On the other hand, yesterday I came down with a bug. I just had a mild cold 2 weeks ago. Now I have a bad sore throat and headache and achy bones and muscles, earaches, and a shnozz full of snot and my lungs are full of lung butter! Ewwwwwwwwwww!!!!! :barf: I am hoping to feel better by next Thursday. Viruses usually last only 7-10 days so I probably will feel better by then. I ALWAYS get sick in the Winter. I have my medical paper masks to wear in the airport and on the plane. Now, just to get the heck outa Dodge before they throw up the roadblocks! :bananana: :xwin: :snowman: :tree: :menorah: :elf: :sadtree:

MERRYCHRISTMAS!!!!!

I know something that will clear up that lung butter-- go out and get a box of Mucinex. I tried it on a whim when I was REALLY sick-- I figured ANYTHING was worth a shot--it is expensive, but it works like a charm!!!

In other news--I work from 930-6 next Thursday, but I'm off on Friday.. let me know where we're all gonna meet, cause I can't wait!!!!!

I wish I could be there, but Purpura's Main Gate pass is blacked out for the rest of the year after tomorrow, so I can't get in.

Enjoy Disneyland! Doesn't do us WDW CM's a lick of good. :p:

Okay, today my chest feels like Dumbo is sitting on it and it hurts to breathe...I am sending Ralph to the pharmacy for Mucinex. BTW, love their commercial too, that big glob of Mucus with the Tom Waits voice!
I am putting together a calendar of where everyone will be at what time on what day and we will find you! I am not sure we can get everyone together at one spot at one time. So far, no date has come with everyone off at the same time. Like I said I am keeping track all week as you give me your days off and I will see what is what by Tuesday or early Wednesday next week and if we can swing a time when there are a good number of all of you off then we can definitely make a meet! Otherwise I think we may have to come see each of you at your Laughing Place! ;) Which will work as well!

Looks like the 23rd will be the best for a day with the DisneyMom family!!!!!! YAY!!!!! We have the Tour in the afternoon at 4PM but nothing before that, except having fun at DL, so we can spend hours together. I promise not to be a screaming womenopausal maniac! :twisted: After all, I will be in my happy place!!!!!
CBeilby wrote:I wish I could be there, but Purpura's Main Gate pass is blacked out for the rest of the year after tomorrow, so I can't get in.
Well, as Purpura said we can try to get together outside of the Park. What would work? Lunch at DtD or coffee at the coffee shop down the street...We are open to all ideas. Maybe we can get Churchy to agree to come too!!!!! We can meet outside the Parks, and Churchy you would come too right??????

We have 8 days to meet everyone. We are there from 12/20-12/27 so we have time....Even if we do not get to meet you on the first weekend, we still have until the following Thursday morning. We fly out on Thursday 12/27 in the afternoon. We will not have a vehicle while there so anything we do we will need to stick within a half mile of the resort, walking distance for me right now. Ralph and I both have a cell phone, he leaves his on all the time and I use mine only when we are going in different directions. So I will PM our cell numbers to all of you and you can always call and let us know where you will be or when you will be at your attraction or Laughing Place! I am going to *rent* some time on a DL Hotel convention center computer and will check in with SGT as well. Ralphie just could not swing the lap top with all the expenses right now. We had to pay for this trip and have to put our deposit down for our April/May WDW trip on the 17th of Dec and we have a special donation to make ;) (I have to do that in Jan/Feb when the funds pile up again after this season's expenses! :eek: ) and all our bills :eek: :eek: :eek: (those deserve a triple eek!!!!!!!!), so no lap top for Susi yet. It is okay, I would rather come to DL and go to WDW in Spring and donate to a good cause ;)
So, I am putting together a calendar with all the CMs days when we can meet and IF we can swing a mini meet or a mega meet, I will apprise everyone of the situation, what day everyone has off together and if NOT then we will see you in DL at your post! That is all, for now troops! heeheehee
Merry Christmas all you Christians and Happy Chanukah, Kwahati (don't eat too much Gefilte Fish, icky-poo...)and Happy Winter season Holiday to all you pagans!
Susi and Ralphie
Oh you CAN call him Ralphie or Ralphie-Pooh when you meet him! No need to call him just Ralph, he IS Ralphie-Pooh, since he adores Winnie the Pooh! :pooh: hehehe And you can call me Princess Q (just kidding) since I AM a fan! :queen: :belle: :cindy: :ariel: :jasmine: :jessica: :snow: Okay, I know Jessica is not a Princess, but she has big Boobs so she is in!

Also Zazuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!! Oh Zazu! I could not find Aurora! :eek: She has a castle named after her at Walt's :walt: original Park!. We need Aurora or as she is known by her nickname, Sleeping Beauty! :D: Yes, indeed, we do!! ;)

Okay we will get together outside somewhere...We will have no vehicle so would DtD work? There is a coffee shop at the Anaheim Visitor's Center and motel near DL somewhere, where we met with my parents and sis and bro-in-law last trip. Maybe that coffeshop. Do you know of the one I speak? It has a motel across the parking lot and it says it is the Anaheim Visitor's Center? It is just a few blocks from DL. We walked back to DL from there. I am not sure what street that is on. Maybe we could get lunch there and CHURCHY, OH CHUUUUUURRRCHY!!!!!! you could meet us there too! Otherwise we could meet at the Lost Bar (hic) at the DL Hotel or at the Grand Californian in front of the big fireplace for cocoa and good banter :D: : we could get the coffee and cocoa at a place in DtD and go sit in front of the fireplace, OR we could meet outside the DL Hotel and we could take you up the *special* :rolleyes: concierge elevator up to the concierge lounge for some snacks and hot beverages! We know all the CMs up there and that would be fun. Have you been up there in that lounge? It is comfy up there. Not too fancy and frou-frou, just a nice comfortable place to rest your feet and get some goodies! They always have gingerbread men up there and other gooey sweets. I know you love G-Men, Purpura! They will let us bring guests! That would be cool!! Actually THAT would be a great place to go! Free food and beverages and a warm and cozy p[lace to chat!
Whatever works! We just can't get too far on feet with my back. We could get a cab if you know of a good place to meet.

I sowwy :( ...I wish all of the WDW CMs could come too. That would be fun! I hope someday that we can get a SGT meet together with all or most of us here coming to WDW at the same time. THAT would be fun. So the more of us who retire to Florida will make it easier. right? That is my greatest wish, that we could have an SGT meet at WDW That would be SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO... much fun! Can you imagine all of us taking over a Resort and the Parks and the mini golf courses and the buffets! :twisted: :eek: :D: A good time would be had by all, and I mean all...Everyone in the whole of WDW Resort would be highly amused at our group of folks... ;)

You were just there....so don't pout or Santa will bring you coal. ;) I would smuggle you in my suitcase,but my suitcase already weighs over 50 pounds every time we travel and Ralph always has to pay extra for heavy luggage! :eek:
I am not kidding. I pack everything AND the kitchen sink! Ralph has one little suitcase and I have my big giant Dumbo size suitcase and a carry on and sometimes another smaller suitcase, plus my big *purse???* which is really a satchel. When we went to WDW last time, I had 4 checked suitcases and a carry on AND my backpack which was my *purse*! :o: But we were in Florida for a month, we spent 3 weeks at WDW and a week at my Uncles up north in Inverness. I needed lots of clothes! And I could NOT make up my mind what I wanted to wear so I packed it all!!!! :hysteria:
Inverness!!! Now that is a nice area! Up near Crystal River, which is one of my favorite places on earth. This is all up in the northern part of the state, sorta near Ocala, which I love. The horse country up there is some of the finest in the U.S., it rivals Virginia and Kentucky for beautiful horse stables and meadows! The water in the river is so clear and you can Manatee watch there. I am hoping this next trip in Spring we can go up and see the manatees, if they have not already migrated out to warmer water. We swam with the Dolphins at Discovery Cove last trip. THAT was one of the most incredible experiences I have ever had. This next trip to WDW we will do the EPCOT Dolphins in Depth tour, where you get to basically get in the water with them and kiss there noses and pet them. I love bottlenosed dolphins. Such beautiful and sensitive creatures. As usual off topic again.........

This trip I am limiting myself to one big suitcase and a carry on and my *satchel*. Of course the suitcase will end up weighing more than 50 lbs, so maybe I should just take 2 smaller ones right? I need shorts, jeans, tee shirts, tank tops, tennies, sandals, a pair of nice shoes, under garments, one nice outfit for Christmas dinner at Steakhouse 55, a light jacket or sweater or should I just buy one there????? and all my toiletries, jewelry, magazines and a writing tablet and...and...and...

Oh I am so confused!!!!!!!!! :eek: I need help packing. Any of the women here have a good formula for packing for a week long trip? Men just don't pack the same way!!!! :eek:

Oh, and I want to try to smuggle my cat in this year too. ;) Actually they are all going to the Alameda East Pet Hotel, where they will have the best holiday they can without us. That place is nicer than some human hotels!!!! :eek:

I wish we could smuggle EVERYONE here in our luggage with us to DL for Christmas. That would be a fun time!
Okay, off to go through my closet to start collecting ALL the clothes and things I will *need*(?) for this trip...heeheehee. I am going to try to keep it simple this trip, since I always seem to buy more shirts and clothes while we are there. We do have some special personalized shirts we had made for the trip. :D: Gotta bring those, maybe even wear them on the plane into the DL Hotel for check-in! Gad, I'm excited! I want to go NOW!!!!!!!!!! :D:
