[QUOTE]Cara - What cruises have you been done?  Any favs?  DH and I have been talking about doing a cruise at some point since it would be so easy for us to leave out of Baltimore.  I just have no idea where I'd want to go for our first cruise.

I've done a few different carribean cruises.  Royal Carribean and Celebrity are the best cruise lines.  We're actually looking at one that includes Bermuda or possibly going up north to Canada for the one in August.  We'd also love to sail out of Baltimore or Bayonne (new jersey).  My parents are cruise-addicts and go twice a year.

[QUOTE]Jess - since you are a captive audience, you should also consider doing a Fish Extender gift exchange if you do a Disney Cruise.  You buy a little pocket organizer to hang off the fish next to your door (which Disney uses to send you notes/your room bill/reminders about dinner reservations and stuff), and then people do a gift exchange by sneaking things into the pockets.  Google "fish extender" on ebay or etsy and let the amaement begin. Sometimes people will give things realted to geography - we gave out tastykakes on our honeymoon, which was a HUGE hit - and other times people will just do things that are fun or useful for the cruise, like temporary tatoos for the pirate party, candy, emergency travel kits, magnets for your door, whatever.  The crazy folk will get crafty; we got little mini scrapbooks from someone, a CD of all the music they play on the ship...it's actually quite fun.

well that is amazing. Tastykakes are a great idea too
I'm telling my sister about this too- she's a huge disney freak also ;)

Must Speak Fluent Mandarin.


Dammit.

>>I confess I forgot to put on my e-ring/wedding ring set, and I feel naked without them!<<

I did this ONCE.  JEGs saw them by the kitchen sink and I still havent heard the end of it.

Amerbutt81

I confess Caribbean is one of those words I gave up on trying to spell.  That and 'definatley' and "jewlery".

I'm 30.  Can't teach this old dog new tricks.

Dear Daphne-

Please come home and stop worrying your momma.

Love,

To the Disney cruise/magnet gals... THOSE are amazing and I just forwarded them to my SIL who is a huge Disney fan... we are thinking about the disney cruise if we can put it in the budget... I have been on two cruises before and never heard about the magnets.. until we researched our honeymoon and a girl on there was going on the same NCL Hawaiian cruise and was talking about.... But hers were NO WHERE near as amazing as those disney ones... I would def be printing out the tigger stateroom, as he is my FAV!!!


I love this idea

Dear Brothers,

 Yes I know I'm always late to family gathers, but that's because I live 40 minutes away-- sometimes I hit traffic.   And if you mention one more time to me about moving back to Bucks, my retort will involve mentioning moving back in with my parents-- because that's what both of you did.  I, on the other hand, bought a house.  With my own money.  And with out Mommy and Daddy's help.

Suck it.

love,
  the youngest.

Vent-
I went to the dentist on monday to have a filling taken care of. The filling was in my front tooth. (Ugh.) So, not only did I have to deal with being shot up in the front of my mouth with novicane, which hurts like a sonofabish, then, apparently he didn't give me enough. Yep. Oh, and then, he puts some rubber thing around my teeth so he doesn't have to use suction at all, and I find out he's filling three cavities. Not one. Three. This rubber thing has to be held up between my teeth with dental rubber bands (like for spacing and braces) and dental floss, which they had to jam up in between my teeth, cutting my gums in the process.

The chick that came in later to do the actual fillings missed this part, and after screwing up all three fillings twice, she tells me in a snotty voice that once I can brush my teeth and floss properly, I can come back to have the fillings resurfaced, because my gums were bleeding too badly to continue working. Yep. I brush my teeth 2x a day, and floss after lunch and dinner. Suck it, lady.

Oh, yeah, she couldn't get the fillings the way she wanted them in the front teeth, so the dentist had to keep coming in and redrilling them out. After the second time, he finally told her to move and he'd do it himself, leaving her to do the resurfacing. My mouth is still sore, two days later. You'd best be believing I'm not going back until it's time for a cleaning in 4 months. Boo.

That sounds so awful, Pap  HUGS!

Vent: They guy next to me has a HORRIBLE cough. I just wiped my entire desk down with an alcohol wipe because he doesn't cover his mouth when he comes out of his office. GROSS. If I get sick before the wedding, someone is getting dropkicked.

FutureMrsTCT

Paps - Major HUGS! I hate the dentist....so not looking forward to my cleaning at the end of May....

LaRositaMonita

Dear Daphne, please come come.  Dear paps's teeth, please get better. 

Dear B2B's kiddo, you are adorable and I am honored to have eaten sushi with you, even if you refused to try the edamame by saying "Green? No thanks!"

Happywithhim - here is the subforum on the DISBoards were people go crazy designing things. 

http://www.disboards.com/forumdisplay.php?f=105

most of the graphic design folks will have links in their signatures to photobucket accounts that show off all their stuff.  For example, here's one I had someone make for our cruise - part of my Fish Extender gift will be this as a magnet for everyone in our group..hooray free stuff from Vistaprint.  She already had the design up and just personalized it with the dates. The other part of our gifts will be Tastykakes again

http://img130.imageshack.us/i/august712doubledipdream.jpg/

I also had people personalize some things to show we'll be traveling for our anniversary.  Rob The Friend For Whom I Am a Groomschick and his FI will also be traveling with us, so I made a bunch of ridiculous stuff to tell people they're celebrating their engagement that they have no idea I'm doing :P

FutureMrsTCT

LRM - you are too friggin adorable. I love all the Disney stuff!

And like RA - I now really want some Tastykakes

caraellen23

Amer- those are my bad words too, I can never spell them.  I also can't spell certificate.  As in gift certificate.  I just write "cert".  I also cannot SAY the word for the life of me.

LaRositaMonita

Dear poor spellers,

I hope this helps.

I confess I had no idea there was a new hyperbole post until this thread, so I stopped part way in to go read it. her.

Dear this week,
You need to be OVER. Now. Please?
Love,
The girl with the absolutely crazy week at work

Bride_to_be_2011

Dear LRM,

I am so happy that the kiddo decided to behave, I did not want to have to take her outside and have a talk with her.  Too bad we can't do that every Weds.

You guys are the best.

Dear QT's kitty-

Please come home. Your mommy loves you and misses you.
- yet another knottie.

Lemma- I would maybe put a can of lysol on his desk and see if he gets the point?

OMG it's not even those kinds of words... it's easier ones...! MIL has a wipe-off board on her fridge and I am constantly trying not to erase things and re-write them. It's bad.
