Canadian Buffoon's Disney With a Teen Vacation - 08/13 - The Wrap

[GoofyIsAsGoofyDoes]

You remembered that?!?!?!?

Like I said, it’s marked in my calendar.

Along with National Whack Scotty with a Pillow Day which was back on July 24th.
Now I forgot to remind Mark about that one this year so I’ll have to just trust that he remembered.

Ya know, I don't actually have a motto.
My company does.
It's "We're not happy until you're not happy".

Nice one, very corporate.
Our overlord’s motto seems to be:
“We care - not about you, but – we really care”

Nah. I don't ride a scooter... yet.

So far as we know…

AAAAIIIIIGGGHHHH!!!! OMG! OMG! OMG!
IT'S ON MY LEG!!!! GET IT OFF!!! OMG!....




nevermind. just a bit of seaweed.

Have seen that scene many times on the coast…
It’s the local equivalent of watching someone’s first taste of Beverly.

Crap. At work.
I'll get back to you...

Don’t go to too much trouble.
I’ve heard him do that routine with a bit better timing, but it always tends to tickle me.

Good idea.
Don't forget to wave as I go past
on the fake-o-rail.

I’d rather shake your hand and buy you a Dole Whip, but the schedule just ain’t workin'.

Just popping in to say hi before this TR is over. I survived two weeks of dog, house, cat sitting and then one night at my in-laws. The bed at my in-laws has to be 50 years old! Back to every day boring life.

I'm going to go out on a limb
and say the in-laws was the least fun...

and not just because of the old bed!

I had the exact same thought as Bill Murray! I always think "Hmm, wonder how fast someone who's not an Olympic athlete would go, for comparison." Great minds...

You guys should get together!

No... Wait...
I can see it now:

Carrie and Bill sit at a table, staring at each other
they're both frustrated.
They sit in silence.
Suddenly they both simultaneously blurt out,
"So this one time, at the beach!...."

"Crap." They both say... together.

Gymnastics is my favorite. I used to take classes at the local Y.

Oh? How far up in skill did you get?
I can't even do a summersault without getting dizzy.

I'm tired of swimming and Michael Phelps in particular.

At least that's over.
I've been really interested in the 100m and 200m.
I want to see if Usain Bolt will three-pete but
I'm hoping our guy (Andre De Grasse) can beat him, though.

I'm a little depressed right now because I'm not going to WDW next month like I was supposed to.

Awww...

I'm hoping next year. Might be at the All Stars but at least I'll be there!

Nothing wrong with the Values!
Besides, you know how you can tell the difference
between someone staying at a Deluxe vs a Value
when you're in the park?

You can't.

Of course before that I need to get in shape. A couple times I've had to use the electric cart at WalMart. My low back is bad as is my left food and shoulder. Also need a lot of work on my teeth. I hate getting old!

Your teeth, still?
I thought you had them done already!

And I hear you about getting old....
And yes... it sucks.

Next month is our 8th anniversary. November I'm going to my 25th high school reunion! What will I wear?!?! My dalek dress? Nah, I have to go shopping. And lose at least 10 pounds.

Good luck with the weight!
And have fun at the reunion!

You better do a TR for your trip! You're the best TR writter currently on the boards! And I need my Ponzi fix!

Thanks Carrie!

Along with National Whack Scotty with a Pillow Day which was back on July 24th.

Ah yes. We celebrate that one up here.

Now I forgot to remind Mark about that one this year so I’ll have to just trust that he remembered.

I'm sure he did.
The fireworks would've tipped him off.

Nice one, very corporate.
Our overlord’s motto seems to be:
“We care - not about you, but – we really care”

Very... caring.

So far as we know…

True. It's one of the mysteries of life.

Have seen that scene many times on the coast…
It’s the local equivalent of watching someone’s first taste of Beverly.

Yes!

Don’t go to too much trouble.
I’ve heard him do that routine with a bit better timing, but it always tends to tickle me.

Still haven't had a chance.
And might be a while.
Left work last night and raced (literally) home
on the Harley trying to beat a thunderstorm.
(Did, too. Barely.)
Got home, did a couple of things,
hit the sack for five hours and now
back at work for the next 16 hours.
Then home for another five hours or so
of sleep then back at work.
Hopefully only for eight hours.

I’d rather shake your hand and buy you a Dole Whip, but the schedule just ain’t workin'.

Yeah, that would've been nice.
Ah, well...

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Well... yes. It's so weird though.
They all seem to be around 24 hours long.

Po
Odd.

Funny how that happens. Just coming up ror air after traveling and trying to catch up at work. Had a great time in Oregon, mostly at the coast. I will try to get back to finish my TR and post some pics. Had a nice lunch with Liesa too!

Good!

Gooder!

Had a nice lunch with Liesa too!

Saw the pic!

She said all you guys did was talk about me.
This is only just and natural.

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Good!



Gooder!

Of course, what else would we talk about?

 

[pkondz]

Of course, what else would we talk about?

Nothing of importance.

 

[Steppesister]

Are we going to string this out to 200 pages? We could, ya know.

 

[franandaj]

I finally got my eggs Benedict yesterday morning for breakfast. Ever since you posted that picture of your breakfast in Montreal I had been craving them! Tried a new local restaurant and I think it's a winner!

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Are we going to string this out to 200 pages? We could, ya know.

I think a 200 page celebration is in order.... we are so close.

 

[pkondz]

Well.... sure... you could.... but why would you want to?
Aren't you tired of me yet?
There is only so much pkondz one can take!

 

[pkondz]

I finally got my eggs Benedict yesterday morning for breakfast. Ever since you posted that picture of your breakfast in Montreal I had been craving them!

I'm craving them again too!
I was at the deli, getting some ham for Monte Christos when....
"Uh... do you have any back bacon?"
(That's Canadian bacon to you yanks)
"No, sorry."


Dang.

Tried a new local restaurant and I think it's a winner!

Good! I have one that's not bad.
But still looking for that perfect one.

Well, that one's at home,
but I wanna be served, dangit!

I think a 200 page celebration is in order.... we are so close.

oh, you!

 

[MarieLightning]

It's time to end this bloated,
overly long trip report!

So you can better start on the next one

Speaking of anything else,
anyone following the Olympics?

Nope. I was at Disney (I mean, we did see about half an hour of it when we were sitting at a lounge, waiting for dinner)

Year one:
You wake in each other’s arms.

Pfffft yeah okay. Not in my bed. I need stretching space.

I spotted a restaurant called
Eggspectation.

Aahh, breakfast restaurant egg puns. Those are the best.

I'm going to say the flight was uneventful.
Pretty sure we didn't crash.

Pretty sure.

Plot twist. This TR has been written by a ghost. There's internet in the afterlife.

As for September....
I think I'll do a TR.

Of course you'll do a TR. And we'll be here to read it

 

[pkondz]

So you can better start on the next one

And... welcome back! How was the trip?

Nope. I was at Disney (I mean, we did see about half an hour of it when we were sitting at a lounge, waiting for dinner)

Your excuse is about as good a one as I can think of.

Pfffft yeah okay. Not in my bed. I need stretching space.

You're like a cat!

Aahh, breakfast restaurant egg puns. Those are the best.

Eggsactly.
Eggspecially when they take a while to get
and aren't over easy.
Unless the letters are scrambled,
then that just brings me to a hard boil.

Plot twist. This TR has been written by a ghost. There's internet in the afterlife.

Let's just say....
there isn't room for one more.

Of course you'll do a TR. And we'll be here to read it

Aww, thanks.
I'm pretty sure I will.
But I am not making any promises
until I get back.
If you see a link or a bat signal
(as per @Steppesister 's request,
so blame her)
that says "Guess what happened!!!"


Then yes... there will be a TR.

But I definitely won't write one
if all I have to say is
"I went. I went on rides. I came home."

Hey! There you go! There's your TR!
Happy?

 

[Steppesister]

Thank you for indulging me. Theoretically.

 

[orangecats2]

Just doing my part here to try and stretch this to 200 pages.

 

[MAGICFOR2]

I'm pretty sure my day would bore you, so I won't another no call no show starting yestrday, so I have 4 interviews set up for tomorrow. This one lasted about 45 dsys. This is technically her third offense, although the 2nd time her mom called because she was in jail for driving without a lucense. Turns out she was being a DD so I didn't punish her that time. SE La Vie

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Oh, look I bored you with my day. It was the one Jim and I referred to as Booty Call after her first offense, BTW.

 

[MAGICFOR2]

I have done my part

 

[ougrad86]

I will help push to 200 pages! I have still been reading along, just lurking. But loving your various reports and hearing about your new puppy . And now you said one for your September trip, I will be following along! What with Rob in college and me still not working (though to be honest, I'm not trying as hard as I was), WDW is probably on a back burner for awhile unless they come up with some anazing discount. Amusing myself with a complimentary day trip to Hershey instead , which is not Disney, but will do! So I will be following along, even if you don't hear from me much!
