That is why NICE girls like me don't drink-- we're too focused on being bright and chipper, always a smile on our face. [Flashback to Barbie in Toy Story 2] Besides Tink doesn't want to upset me, do you Tink? After all, she and I will be in Disneyland....TOGETHER! The Happiest Place on Earth! The World Where Dreams Come True....

Even cheap beer when necessary. Fine...you win. First off, the fact that you DON"T drink explains soooooooo much about you, and secondly, that Barbie from Toy Story????? I wanted to bash her little plastic face in!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't forget to pack your meds. And try not to embarras tink in DL. What time are you leaving tomorrow? Not that I want to say goodbye or anything. I just want to know what time I can get on line and talk smack about you.

But, for the next 30 minutes I am going to just have my I really don't give a flying fig attitude. And, if I were a drinking gal, I'd say pass the shooters because I'm gonna tie on a big one --- but, since I'm not, my husband better be bringing me home an Extra Large Slurpee tonight.

Originally Posted By MOLLYSMOM I leave here at 4:30, and I won't be back until 7:30 tomorrow. I will now be worried about you until then. Not to be a smart a$$, but 4:00 in the afternoon is a very bad time for you to have a crisis.
Originally Posted By mickeynewe Hey sorry Mollysmom! Don't worry, I will be fine, and like I said, I only allow myself a short time to "dwell". You can email me if you want and I will fill you in on the details. Don't feel like going in to it on the boards. My email is in my profile. Again, don't worry -- hey, tomorrow I will be in Disneyland right?! Thanks for love, hugs, and pixie dust! Right back at you girlie!

I wanted to say that we have cont. to discuss airfare periodically throughout this thread. As a matter of fact we discussed it this afternoon. I, also wanted to say that I wish we could share clothes b/c MollysMom could ship her already packed suitcase out to Hojos for me to wear everything in it, if I hadn't grown to a size 8.
Originally Posted By MOLLYSMOM tink...does your request for my suitcase mean that you haven't finished packing yet? Please give mickeynewe extra hugs for me when you hook up with her. Squeeze her 'til she says "ouch." mickeynewe...you on the boards today, or have you already left? I am VERY, VERY excited for you today, and I hope that all is well with you. You don't need to go into details with me...not today, anyway, for today is a very awesome day, and we don't need to go into unhappy things, and make you sad. I will miss you two terribly while you are gone, but I know you will have the bestest time. Happy birthday to your DH, mickeynewe. Do me a favor and have a Churro and a Dole Whip for me. I expect to hear all about your two trips when you get back. Fly safe, drive safe, don't forget your sunscreen, and put on clean underwear every morning. xxoxoxoxoxxoxoxoxoxoxoxxoxo
Originally Posted By mickeynewe LOL, you know just how to make me chuckle! Thanks Mollysmom -- and a ton of hugs back to you too! Tink and I talked things out last night -- that was good. I'm a little more optimistic too because I got a reassuring email from my doc to give me another boost of positiveness. So all is good and I have decided not to worry and to deal with things when I get back. It will all wait and there is no reason why we can't go and share this special family time together, we need it! This morning my mom picked me up at the crack of dawn (okay 7:00 isn't exactly dawn, but close enough for her because she had to drive in to town to get me) and she took me to go get a new 'do for the trip. So my hair is all cut and fresh -- something its needed drastically -- and I'm gonna get started putting together the rest of my stuff and cleaning the house. Okay, speaking of the house --- am I the only freak that can't stand coming home to a messy house? I have to have it in sparkling clean shape before I leave. My husband always teases me and wants to know why I leave it so clean for the burglars?? Well, my dear friend, have an awesome week without us --- don't miss us too much! Save up all the wit of yours so I can have a good dose of it when I get back! I shall look forward to it! Oh, and one last thing --- do I have to put on clean underwear EVERY day? ugh *wink*
Originally Posted By MOLLYSMOM Cool...I am so very glad that tink was there for ya last night. And, you are right...deal with it when you get back. Try and forget about it for the next few days. I know that's easier said than done, but I'll bet once you get to the park, all will seem so much better. 7:00 is not the crack of dawn, no matter where you are. Crazy Californians. I, too, am getting my hair cut today. I actually got it cut about 6 weeks ago, and I am in desperate need of a trim. I used to have long hair, but had been wanting to cut it short for ages. I finally bit the bullet, and asked to have it cut like Lisa Rinna's hair. I love it so much, and I wish I had done it long ago. However, my bangs are so long that I can't see squat. I was hoping to hold off until next week, but no way. Once DH started barking at me, I knew I was getting a bit "doggy", and so off I go today to get trimmed. I don't clean my house spotless before I go. Mainly because my housesitter is the 21 year old son of DH's best friend. He won't notice if my house is spotless when he gets there, and, well, there will be a 21 year old male at my house for a week, so what's the point. Yes...clean drawers every day. Good Lord, get your mother on line here...we need to talk. What if you have some accident while you are away. Say you crash on Autopia, or fall out of the Jungle Cruise boat and have to be rushed to the hospital...with dirty drawers!!! Do you want to embarrass your mother like that? Again, have the best trip ever....you will be missed bunches.

I can't pack them yet, b/c I still have to wear them for the next few days! (and the new pair I bought, I never found! lol Can I get any goofier?) The thrift shop is having a half price sale tomorrow and I am hoping some lady with nice capri pants just grew from an 8 to a 10 and donated all of her capris in mint condition. My Mom always gets there before I do and is going to scope out any capris and hold on to them for when I show up! lol (I'm telling you, the people that go to the thrift shops will run you right down to get something before you do. I blame it on Ebay!) Is this the weekend with the jello shot party?
Originally Posted By MOLLYSMOM tink...you're makin' me crazy here!!! Nothing like waiting until the last minute. I KNOW you still have the weekend, but wouldn't you rather relax and enjoy??? I, too, love checking out the thrift stores...many treasures to be had. Hopefully, your mom will find some capris for you. Yup...this is the big weekend. I have the shooters in the back of my Explorer in the ice chest here at work, my boss just left for the day to go get ready for the party, it's 95 degrees outside, and I am presently unsupervised. This is a lethal combination to be sure.

Originally Posted By kari12177 Whenever I find a pair of capris or pants I love, I now, always buy two pairs.
Originally Posted By Tinkerbell819 I found 3 pair of capris on Sat. and they are washed, dried, "arned" and ready to go! lol (I found a bunch of other pair that I had already packed and didn't realize I bought a pair exactly the same as one I already had. So, I used your idea Kari, without even knowing it!) How was the party, mollysmom? I hope you aren't feeling any pain today! We went to pick up our 1 day rental car this am for our ride to the airport tomorrow. The girl at the counter asked me for my itinerary. I didn't have anything with me, other than the Thrifty paperwork, so she said I couldn't rent a full size car without my itinerary. ????? Who knew???? I asked if I could get a mid size instead and she said "How about a van?" I didn't know if my coupon would cover a van, but she said it was fine b/c I didn't know about the full size rule or whatever. So, rather than stuff a midsize with all of my bags, I agreed to the van. We sign all of the paperwork and are heading to the # spot they gave us for our van and my DH said "I hope it's not a gold one" (We have a gold Town & Country mini van.) Well, guess what was sitting in our spot? You guessed it, a gold Town & Country, an exact replica of our car. So, we are now afraid we are going to return the wrong car in the wee hours of the am! lol

The party was great fun. Three days of 95 degrees, a keg of beer, and 500 jello shooters. Yup, it doesn't get much better than that. I have a sunburn, and I got stung 5 times by hornets (I'm allergic), but I have lived to tell the tale, so life is good. I'm REALLY jealous of your Town & Country rental van....I'm stuck with this crappy Ford Mustang. You are SOOOOO cool.
