Well, in three weeks we will (finally!) be coming down to Dl for a visit, and I would love to meet up with some Swanksters while we're there. We'll be there from June 19th thru the 24th, and aside a side trip to American Girl place on the 21st and dinner at Medieval times on the 20th we are pretty open. Tori's actual b-day is the 22nd, and we are planning on spending the day at the park. If anyone wants my cell number, feel free to pm me. It'd be really cool if we could arrange a Swanking during the time we're there, but I'll understand if it doesn't happen due to time and scheduling constraints.

I cannot wait- I am sooooooooooooooooo very ready for this! It'll be great to see you guys!

Yeah- when we booked the trip the ride was supposed to re-open on the Girl's b-day, then after we had already paid for it they rescheduled everything. No Fantasmic, or Pirates ride....(sob). Bastards.

Just wanted to bump this up and see if we have an idea when/what/where things might happen? Also, so remind myself that the next four days of hell I'm putting myself through at work will be worth it in two short weeks time.....

(I am booked out for four months solidly, so when I take time off I have to do double time before and after vacation to get everyone in).

I am very much looking forward to seeing everyone- have I mentioned that before?:D I'm also looking forward to a triple-shot South of the Border at UVA. Been a tough year.

Ugh, it would be tough, but if that's the only day .... i could potentially make it late in the evening.

We'll be there from June 19th thru the 24th, and aside a side trip to American Girl place on the 21st and dinner at Medieval times on the 20th we are pretty open.

I believe there will be other days in the Park. The 22nd is Tori's actual BD.

For you LA folks, hows abote a Grove meet on the 21st. Chris and I will both be there in the aftornoon and onward until we take the wenchy family back to Anaheim.

innerSpaceman
06-08-2006, 08:47 PM
Ok, I could likely do the Grove in the evening, after work.

Getting to Anaheim after work, however, is a pain.


Are there any weekend Wendydays at the Park? (not to be confused with blustery days of the Pooh variety.)

wendybeth
06-08-2006, 09:13 PM
Actually, we'll be in the Park three days, excepting dinner at MT on the 20th and the AG/Grove day on the 21st. So, the 22nd and 23rd will be all park days. I think. The 20th is a partial Park day. I think. Have I mentioned I need a vacation????

iSm, we fly out on Saturday.:( I had booked this whole thing around the Girl's b-day and the (old) re-opening of the POTC. Then the *^&#*'s went and switched days on us, long after we'd paid for the trip.... Anyway, excepting the MT dinner on the 20th and the AG/Grove day, we're at the Park.

Good try, KB. I'll trade you a few Zebra finches, okay?

Okay, bumping this up since Leo's done his drive by ;)

I won't be there, except by cell phone (if I can get my timing worked out) and want to vicariously enjoy the plans for the Wendybeth meet.

So, all of you Southerners.....do you have plans to have a weeknight meet at the park?

Are any of you Northerners going to meet us at The Grove on the 21st?

Inquiring minds want to know.

You know, I am just sure that the copyright grades are late because somebody did so off-the-charts great that the profs are running every possible test to see if that person did so in an entirely legal and un-penguinlike manner.....

(Does that suck-up get rid of the hex potential? I walk a very thin luck line....)

Prudence
06-16-2006, 10:50 AM
I swear there were no penguins involved! Although they say most grades should be posted by the end of the day. (Continues chewing on what's left of fingernails.)

wendybeth
06-16-2006, 09:15 PM
Yayy, DP! Okay, for the benefit of Dear Prudence, who is apparently scroll-back impaired (;)) here's the plans thus far:

Arrive in Anaheim around 8 pm on Monday. (It was supposed to be earlier, but they keep switching our Seattle connection). Then we check in at the BW PP Inn, where they'll be sure to put us in the crappiest room they have. (It's my hotel karma).

Tuesday, we may attempt to get to the Park early- we have an early entrance to Toontown that I think we can use that day. Then again, we will probably sleep in. We'll wind up at the Park eventually, but have to leave for Medieval Times at 4-ish. I plan on hitting the Park again when we get back, though.

Wednesday, it's the Grove and American Girl Place. NA gets to play Tour Guide- lucky girl!

Thursday and Friday are completely open, spend at the Park days, and Saturday we have to go home.:(

If any of those days are horrible, it's Prudence's fault.

Are you kidding?! I've been sitting on my ass all day. I don't have time to scroll back! Are you trying to invoke my hex powers?

You'd better have a good time and give a thorough report.

Oh, and have you been through Seatac (I'm assuming you're going through Seatac) since they remodeled that atrium area? If not, you should check it out. For pokey little Seatac it's pretty nice.

wendybeth
06-16-2006, 10:47 PM
I've been there before, and if memory serves (and it's hazy, as they were having a Corona and Cuervo special in the courtyard bar prior) it involved poultry pieces, ye olde bbq riblets, some funky soup served in a dish with a handle, the traditional corn-on-the-cob that was so beloved in times of olde, and bread, Medici style. (Garlic). I spent most of the time commenting on what fabulous hair our champion had, at least according to the tape we made of the event. Eric must have said 'wench' to our server at least twenty times more than was appropriate.

" We' won, of course. :D

Prudence

I almost mentioned the potatoes! I saw something on the food network or travel channel about MT and they were going on and on about the authentic food - including the foil-wrapped baked potatoes. Still, it sounds like silly fun.

Why don't we shoot for Thursday evening? We're going to be in the Park all day for the kid's actual b-day, and it's a weeknight so DP can be there. Friday works as well, so whatever the consensus works out to be works for us!

Okay- taking a break between running around like a maniacal idiot. It's almost weird to have had time off before going- I'm used to working late and then leaving early the next morning, and I've had the past two days off and won't leave Spokane until 2:00 pm. We should get to the hotel just in time to hear the fireworks.:)

Have we decided on anything, or is it just going to be a # exchange and meet up if/when we can? Either way works- just ask NA for my cell if you want to get ahold of me after I've left. I'll check back here before going....

Looking forward to seeing everyone- especially the KITTIES! at the Cone-Meinke rez. (Uhm, yeah- you and Chris too, Lisa....:rolleyes:;) ).

The Grove in Anaheim or LA?

Where we went yesterday? Farmers Market and The Grove in LA. The Grove in Anaheim is just a concert facility I believe.

We had a birthday party for Tori at American Girl Place. Chris was such a good sport. He event carried around he little red AG prize bag for the resst of the day. He also spend some cash buying a coffee spoon at Sur la Table, a cocktail shaker and tray at C&B and a keychain with AG bauble at AG. MBC, are you working covertly behind the scenes? :evil:


ISM came over around 5:30 and we had dinner at the Farmers Market. It was a lovely day, but exhausting - especially for WB and Co. who had spent the previous evening at Medieval Times.

Yes, the Grove in Anahiem is the concert hall that use to be Tinsel Town Dinner Theater (was a great time, BTW!). It can be a little confusing having The Grove in LA and then The Grove in Anahiem right next to Garden Grove, and now the Garden Walk next to Garden Grove as well! :confused:

The Garden Grove Walk of Anaheim anyone?? :evil:

So happy to have had a small part in the WB meet....my cell phone rings (while at dinner...more on that in a bit) and this person on the end says "It's Lisa". My sister in law is named Lisa, and she hates my guts, so I was trying to figure out why she was calling me from a noisy place - I thought she was drunk. Well, it turns out it was our own beloved NA (curse me giving her my cell number!), and I was happy to have had the chance to speak with WB (and NA as well, I suppose ;) ).

Anyway, dinner....I did excuse myself to answer my phone, as I figured it was my eldest daughter, who had her first solo babysitting experience of my two smaller ones tonight.

My business partner (who had the contacts and info on our current job....we have a fully distributed partnership at 50-50, but I do 85% of the work) and his wife took me and my wife out to a dinner to celebrate 10 years (as of June 6). He spared no expense....picked us up in a limo and took us to a 5 star resort called the Phoenician to dine at what is rated as one of the top three restaurants in Arizona called Mary Elaines. Quite generous, and I was really embarrassed. Once in a life time experience for me, certainly, and as I didn't see the bill, I saw the prices on the menu and wine list. :eek: I have never had such a culinary experience.

So, NA and WB - this is why I had to cut your call short. I needed to return to the table. I do thank you for thinking of me.

Congratulations Leo; you are now officially a phone whore.

Only in person can I immitate you trying to figure out how I was and then, suddenly, the light bulb flashed. Your "OHHHHHHH" was so classic.

Sorry to interrupt your dinner. We were going to call on Wednesday but we were too pooped ad it was late.

No problem on the interruption, NA. It isn't like I give you my schedule or anything (and I'm not about to start!). I just wanted to apologize.

So where are the WB meet photos?

You have no new mojo comments.

I'm back- the animals are all alive and well, the house is clean and the only semi-catastrophe that occured was when Tori's American Girl shampoo somehow managed to explode all over my clothes in my checked suitcase, drenching everything in coconut sudsiness. We had a blast, and I will post my pics and stuff first thing when I wake up from my post-vacation coma tomorrow (today).

Lisa and Chris- ty and you totally rock! Seriously, I am not unaware of the trouble you went through on our account and I am most appreciative. I especially appreciate the kitty fix mid-week; it really helped alleviate our feline withdrawels and I fell in love with all your wonderful kids. They were even sweeter than I could have imagined, even if Lyra did spend a lot of time in the kitchen wondering when the hell this latest batch of weirdos was going to leave.... As I type this I am being swarmed by our little furballs, and I already have cat fur in my eyelashes.:D

We have some really great pics from AG- Chris deserves a medal for being such a good sport, and Lisa is dangerous in any shop, even ones that cater to little tweeners.

Last night we closed the Park with iSm, Bartop and Zapppop- thanks for the great Space mountain trip, iSm!:snap: We had a long and horrid trip home, but we made it, and now I am going to crash. Thanks again to everyone!

Last Night we made good use of the American Girl keychain - best investment ever. Thanks Wendybeth & Tori - it was a blast having you down and can't wait to devise some other off-property activities for your next trip.

How is it that you have 233 total private messages? Isn't the limit 100?

Yet another liberal who thinks the rules don't apply to them.:p ;)

Lol- I really should have bought one of those keychains..... Did anyone decide the 100 lb and stupidest toy questions? I'll get busy on loading the pics here in a bit- still trying to wake up. The animals are all being total cuddlebugs right now- they'll get bored with us pretty soon, but for the moment it's purr and slobber city.

Scaeagles, we just didn't figure you needed a big PM capability.;):p

Oh, and I forgot to re-charge my phone so I was phoneless most of Thursday- I got a voicemail from Katiesue to try and meet up, but I wasn't able to listen to it until the next day. The whole day Thursday was kind of a mess- we didn't know about Grad Night and the Park closing at 9 until we heard the fireworks going off early. So we went to that horrible Captain Kidds, where Tori had a mouse-eared pancake and I had their version of the Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster. Lots of pissed off tourists in there that had no clue about the Grad night thing.

well that would certainly explain why i could not reach you:(

lots off pissed of Guests last night too. i was verbally assaulted several times and physically threatened once. somehow, while remaining firm with my instructions to the Guests, i was able to keep a smile and say thank you, have a nice day.

funny how the women swear worse than the men!:eek:

sorry i missed you wenchybreath, but, i know there will be a time to visit again soon. i am glad you had a wonderful vacation.

after all the work i have been doing and the gruelling schedule, i have been granted a paid 4 day weekend July 1-4!

i'll take it:snap:

I saw where you'd phoned, ML- one time I'd been in a ride area so I didn't have reception, and another was when the battery was dead. I'm sorry I missed you, but we're shooting for an October trip so I hope to meet up with you then! I knew you'd be terribly busy, so no worries- just sorry you had to contend with the angry mobs! The Premier hours were posted everywhere, so anyone who didn't know about that was probably clueless to begin with, but Grad nite was a surprise to a lot of people, not excluding the waitpersons at the Captain. They were totally unprepared for the rush, and when I told our server about the reason she smacked her forehead and said "That's right! I'd forotten all about that!" If I'd have known about Grad night ahead of time, I would have switched days for Medieval Times. Oh, well, live and learn.:rolleyes:
