We are under a blizzard watch, anywhere from 8 to 18 inches of snow. 50mph winds, sustained. If I'm not on tomorrow, our power is out.

Even I have to admit it's a smidge early in November for that amount of accumulation. I hope the storm fizzles out a bit, so that you won't have so much to deal with so soon, let alone the 50 mph winds on top of it all.

You know what I find odd about @catmom46 's comment about the park being open only 20 minutes, and yet the standby was already at 75 minutes, was that this is a MONDAY. Now, I would assume that most people would be either working, or their kids would have school today, and it's not a holiday either, etc. So aside of the people like catmom46 (who took a day off from work), or retirees, or certain others, just who are these people who can go to Disneyland on a Monday??!!! (Obviously, I'm jealous . . . )

I have never done M:S Green.
Always Orange. But, then again, the first few times we rode it there wasn't a Green version to begin with.

I only do Green now. A few years ago, I was riding all the crazy rides multiple times like MS, Rock N Roller Coaster, T of T, etc. and I ended up with a case of vertigo. (I think what caused it was multiple rides on RnR Coaster, with the inversion loops--threw off the fluid balance in my ears--that's what the doctor surmised.) So to play it safe now, I still go on everything but only ride the more extreme rides once.

Just so you know, Green on MS isn't bad at all. I still think it's fun.

All I can say, I'm glad to have a new puzzle for hubby and I to start. If the lights go out....that's another story! We have to keep warm you know......I'm thinking Tequilla, and lime!

Don't forget that snuggling is also a nice way to keep warm, too!

 

[MinnieM123]

YEA! East and west coast today!

This really is a treat!! I only wish I was on here during the daytime, so that I could have kept up with @catmom46 's and @ajrwdwgirl 's posts.

Yes, I should have started last week and I'll have to work double time to get done on time. Ten varities each over the next five weeks. This holiday has snuck on us.

TEN varieties of delectible sweets???!!!!! I'm IN!!! (Oh, I forgot, I'm not exactly close by . . . )

Fast passes!

Oh wow!!!! You are so lucky!!! I miss Fast Passes, and forgot that Disneyland doesn't do the MM+ lunacy.

 

[MinnieM123]

Love single rider!!

Me too!!! I think that's how I pretty much avoid having anything to do with MM+ at WDW--I usually can go to the single rider lines on the blockbuster rides and I do just fine that way. Glad to hear that they have single riders at Disneyland, too!

AppleCare support on the phone is brilliant. Of course, I only have one other company to compare it too. Toshiba and they were horrible.

I reset my NVRAM and no more green spots whenever I play music or look at pictures. Of course I just fixed it so my happiness could change.

Haven't the slightest clue what any of that means, but I'm glad that you're happy, nonetheless!

How is everyone tonight? We had clam linguine and now are settling in to watch Hunting Hitler which I find amusing. Nice relaxing night...minus the Nazis.

I don't get it. What's funny about that show?

Here it was 70 degrees today...

Condolences . . .

Mostly grill in the summer and boil in the winter. My dh will grill or BBQ no matter the weather

In the winter I use my bbq fork and "campfire" cook my hot dogs over my stove's burner.

Condolences . . .

Why? It was glorious

Why? It was glorious

Seventy is glorious in the summer, not November!!

Ha! That's a good idea. I have an idea for dessert for you: "campfire" cook marshmallows the same way!

 

[MOXOMUMD]

That sounds delicious!! What kinds of things do you bake, @MOXOMUMD ?

Everything from cookies, brownies, cupcakes, fudge, truffles, muffins, rice krispie treats, gingerbread, donut pops, nobakes, meringues and everything in between. Plus super megabig batches of chex mix, puppy chow, glazed mixed nuts and rainbow popcorn. Also dozens and dozens of chocolate covered pretzel rods, candy canes, marshmallow skewers and cocoa spoons.

So... spirit week started today.

It's nice, I guess, since I'm a senior and we can pretty much boss everyone around this whole week.
I really wish I could talk about something that isn't school!

Like my love of Disney movies... oh wait, I've already done that plenty!
