Hey where is everyone, still getting over the holidays ? Come back we miss you all !!!

And for someone on the wrong track he is still overall kind (at least relative to his new friend set) Here you can take a 5th year in normal HS to upgrade marks (informally called Victory Lap), so all his good friends have graduated and went on to College. I'll stop harping soon, I swear. It's just hard to get out of my system. In regards to cooking, Electric for whatever reason is more common than gas here. So mine might not taste as good as the mac you know. Oh and if I heat it on the plane, I guess those warmers are electric too huh? I dunno why I like the older Disney Live Action stuff more, there seems to be a charm about them. Now the new stuff is much better technically, but I feel the marketing ooze through the newer stuff. Also as an LPer with almost a decade under my belt here, most of the old timers here know I'm great for run on sentences and "flow of thought, random tangent" posting. I don't edit my posts just type and type and type

But I think tears of respect can be forgiven in this case.

It's another happy day. He should be starting college but he's not. That said he's accomplished more then his birth parents so far. That's not saying much. Does anyone remember the great Snuggie debate from a couple of years ago?

Haven't had a problem for over 3 years, ever since I moved up here. It's probably going to be another quiet weekend so will just grab my Snuggie, a good book, and hop to the back of the plane. Oh, and a Cinnamon Tea Latte sounds divine.

Originally Posted By disneylandfan8 Not yet, mm. It doesn't happen in a day. Was busy spraying, vacuuming, giving Bella baths, etc. It's better tho. I'm really missing all my dear LP friends. I need to DL trip sooooo much. Guess I'll just have to go for the virtual kind for the time being.
Originally Posted By TXDISNEYNERD Morning y'all. I'm back from my loooong nap at the back of the plane. I even slept thru those slot machines. I knew I was feeling better once I started to put quarters in them.
Originally Posted By TXDISNEYNERD I hope you have gotten rid of your fleas DLF8. Thankfully, we haven't had that problem with our dogs since they are wussy inside dogs.

I have heard that only those smoke bombs where you have to leave for a day or two really work. That would be such a pain.

Originally Posted By amazedncal2 Hmmm, slot machines? Sounds good to me. I never win but I'm "game" for spending some mindless time at them A cran and soda is my usual drink. dlfan8, fleas? ugh! hope tomorrow is a perfectly flea day!

Originally Posted By avimagine Sure, who won the Ashes cup btw? Funnys good, I've been overall happy for a couple of days. So I think i'm on the mends. My problem isn't losing someone in the same way with finality. But it's still "losing" someone. Just it has a small ray of hope that that person may be "found again". It was hard when my 1 grandma and 2 grandparents died. Then last year one of my favorite uncles died with a tumor the size of a grapefruit. Death sucks. That's why I choose to beleive in an afterlife heh. Weak eh? We need an A380 for that conga line! You know what's funny? Something with Leslie Neilson
