Oh trust me, my A/C is cranked in the summer. I also have an artillery unit in my bedroom for those extra hot days. It is a women's age thing and not wanting to inflict it on the kid. Walt on the other hand lays atop the A/C registers.

artillery? do tell!

Because I thought you called me princess so I was trying to be clever.

So..the day of the MK 24-hour party in May is also the day I check-out of my hotel and leave WDW...

Although I don't have the details of the 24-hr. party, my guess is that it would be crazy mobbed with people. I actually think you're probably better off missing it.

When its 1215 AM and the Pup decides chewing a rawhide on your kneecap is a brilliant early morning activity.

Walt!

I hear ya. My head hit the pillow last night and I was out...had been up 40+ hours (again) without sleep. Once I get past that 20 hour mark the torture ends and all that is left is painful.

How can you get in your beauty sleep, if you stay up for 40 hours?!

How can you get in your beauty sleep, if you stay up for 40 hours?!

And WHY are you up for 40 hours? AGAIN?

Donuts....mmmmm....I hear they are good for you. I love cider ones rolled in cinnamon sugar. And because they are made of cider they are good for you.

The best part is that the cider makes it a fruit. Any Doctor will tell you that more is better when it comes to fruit.

but.. but.. the 1% probability of autism! /sarcasm

The proper wording would be: But... the 1% imagined risk of autism!

Hmpf. Do daffodils not *work* in Florida?

I'll miss them.

Let me explain something here. When I lived up north many charities sold Daffodils to raise money, Why? Because they were scarce as an honest politician. Here in NC, which is really the northern end of the south, we use literal fields of them for beauty accents at interstate entrances and exits. I'm not kidding... large expanses of Daffodils a two entrances and two exits of each interchange. So you need not worry... Daffodils await you.

I don't know what this means. Taste the paper?

The British a lot of times say that when Americans use paper tea bags, they can taste the paper.

At least, that's what I've heard.

 

[StarWarsGirl]

Torta as in "cake" its only in spain as far I know.
Cake is "PASTEL" in Mexico.

I use an accent from Spain, so that would explain why my mind goes to cake for "torta"

Well you are just full of chipper news for me this morning!

My cider donuts are a fruit on the food pyramid and Daffodils will welcome me to the South someday.

And Strawberries have returned.

Life is good!

And if I move to Florida I can see Gators on the Golf Course.

What a waste of a good Pizza.

Stop throwing pizzas.

No thank you on the snow. We've had it since Thanksgiving. I'm ready for it to go the h-e-double hockey stick away!

What is this "snow" thing so many of you mention???????

 

[TomP]

My goodness, I hope you feel much better soon. Unfortunately, some people are just more susceptible to nose and throat conditions. I wish you didn't have to go through this again.

On the flip side of that, I'll bet the doctors love it when you show up; you're job security for those guys! (Just kidding . . . )

Well, it's now Thursday, I hope @StarWarsGirl95 is feeling better.

You don't have to go to a golf course to see gators. This is a funny one, the pic has been around for a week or so and each time it gets reported, the gator get bigger. Started out at 5-6 feet, now up to 12 feet.

 

[TomP]

Yeah, this story is as well circulated as the one that purports that $100 bills smell like maple syrup.
So far, I've never had any melt, but by golly, you get a fistful of hundreds and they smell EXACTLY like McDonald's hotcakes and syrup.

I wonder if that means McD's hotcakes/syrup are made of polymer?
ETA: looks like @Cesar R M beat me to it.

 

[TomP]

or he got snowdumped? D:

no snow @ 82*

 

[StarWarsGirl]

Well, it's now Thursday, I hope @StarWarsGirl95 is feeling better.

Better than I felt Tuesday, but still worn out and not sleeping through the night. I skipped my morning classes; I'll go to my Spanish class at 3:30 since I can't miss that one again.

 

[TomP]

Is the greater Orlando area still a depressed market?

I'm no real estate expert. In my observations, large metro areas are doing pretty good, but prices are holding at post bubble levels (the lowest value) or rising very slowly; there are just SO many properties for sale that have been sitting for so long. I think it will be a while before demand overtakes supply. Orlando may be doing a little better because of popularity of location. And I just read the other day that Tampa Bay is picking up. Other parts of the state that are more suburban or rural are having a slower growth or are still stagnant. Just my opinion.

 

[TomP]

How'd ya' know...?!?!?!

If it quacks like a duck..........
