I think Belle spends more time on my bed than I do and somehow, that just doesn't seem at all fair.

How a cat thinks. If there's a soft surface to lay on I own it. I may at times let my human borrow it.

I'm kinda the same, but with Toy Story, Inside out and The Good dinosaur. I only digest them only once.
Now, there are movies that I cant just stop watching. like Rattatouie and WallE.

We own all of them except The Good Dinosaur. I didn't like that one.

It got worse.. there was a 38C alert 2 days ago, with thermal feeling of 62C
My cousin says they all got A/Cs cranked up. And the heat is just starting...

That may and I did say may be just a wee bit warm for me.

And a couple of slightly strange things today

Looks like someone didn't look for train signs.

And seriously who needs that much luggage?

That much luggage is what I needed to get home last trip In all fairness I did get a bit of Christmas shopping done

Ha! Sometimes hubs and I call Disney Springs Disney's 5th gate, it seems like it is a theme park for food now

Food theme park --

Oh Dear!

Yes, I found the "park" reference quite amusing as well. But, now I'm thinking--(for newbies)--just exactly how is Disney marketing Disney Springs? If you've never been to WDW, would it appear to be another one of the parks at WDW? Just a random thought here--I wonder if she's not only one who misinterpreted the marketing campaign. (Then, too, some people don't pay attention to details, and might just quickly glance at the ad.)

I have a question. Did the movie do justice to the book Hidden Figures? THNX

I've had the same Iron for around 30 years. In fairness it doesn't get out much.

Yet, many of those old irons were practically indestructible. My grandmother had one of those big, heavy, metal irons and I can assure you that she used her a lot. It was the only iron she had--never replaced it and I haven't a clue just how old it really was--but I'd guess at least 20 years or more.

Often, appliances that were just basic (without the extra bells and whistles), and built of strong, metal parts, would outlast their newer model counterparts. Reminds me a little of some of those very old Singer sewing machines--with proper oiling, etc., they'd last a few generations!

Didn't read the book. I was thinking of buying the DVD next weekend (the DVD is out this Tuesday at Target, at least).

 

[MySmallWorldof4]

That, or Imagineer CMs is what I've always heard. Either way, always very fun...!
I've posted before about all the HMs I found in our local Disney Store that none of the CMs even knew about until I became a CM there, and I hipped them to them...!!!

We have no Disney Store near us. When we were in a more populated area and not near a dead mall, we would go into Disney Store to get our Disney fix.

Never saw it in the theaters. I think that is the only Disney made for theater movie we didn't see in the theater. Dh and I don't care for dinosaurs. We did buy it when it came out though. I still haven't watched it and the kids just watched it once. I think that is the only DVD they have only watched once.

Sympathy like.
We used to have 3 here in Austin. We have just the one now in our local mall 5 mins. down the road, that I was a CM at for over 4 years, when I was laid off during the last economic downturn. Fortunately, we can still get our Disney fix.

I didn't read the book but the film was fantastic.

Well if there was a retail store I would work at if necessary it would be Disney Store. I always loved getting greeted by the CM's. It always brought a smile to my face. I remember when they actually sold cells and would just stare and hope to be able to afford them one day.

I hope there are no more economic downturns for you. Just keep hoping for those people to go into your firms doors and asking for those $10 mil plans.
