Did you see where Legoland is having a water park day for dogs and their owners? I think it's some sort of Halloween thing as costumes are encouraged.

Oh how fun. I'd do that if I lived there. Walt would love it.

Sorry but those are not Zeppole's. Cause when I think of Zeppole's, I think of this

Not in my world. Ewe.

One of my favorite all-time TV shows! It was fairly cutting-edge for its time. She was really on her own, versus the earlier show of Marlo Thomas (That Girl) when Marlo had her boyfriend and father in the background more often. Both shows were fun, though!

I am a big fan of both That Girl and The D ick Van D yke show. Entertaining good fun.

Oy what a day.

He learned to barely walk the day before our trip. I dropped him off at my Moms that evening so I could pack and he spent the night. She was having such a kick out him walking that she let him walk around her driveway. He fell and clunked his forehead and as most infants had a big knot on his forehead. She drove the three of us the next morning to airport. He on a pretty steep path in a little shaded area that afternoon at Down Town Disney (that I can still picture in my head that doesn't exist anymore near the Empress Lilly). Of course he fell and hit the same lump. I wasn't overly concerned but asked a kiosk vendor for some ice. Sad no, not allowed but pointed me to first aid where they would have ice packs. We went in and they were so nice and said just a minute....it was many minutes and I was kinda surprised. Then we saw an ambulance pull up (yes we were naive young parents at Disney) and thought oh that is why there is an emergency. The paramedics came through the door and asked about the injured guest and they pointed to my son. Dumbfounded. They looked him over real well and were so nice to him and us. After we signed no transport to hospital papers we got a freak'n ice pack. He was fine. : /

We had two other such incidents both with my DD. One when a mini arcade merrygoround slit her stomach and another at the old discovery island (the original near MK) again where she slit her skin on a sharp rock. She is also the one where she completely choked on Pixie Stick Dust in our hotel room and I had to perform the heimlich on my own (didn't call 911 CAUSE I knew what would happen.) Yep have had some interesting visits to Disney in their early childhood years. Thankfully as they grew it ended.

When my brother was little, he would get seizures as the result of a fever. One time, my dad and I were on Test Track and came out to a bunch of first aid workers and a stretcher. He had a seizure in front of Test Track. Freaked out a bunch of guests. Since my mom knew what it was, she knew how to handle it. I think she took my brother to urgent care after that and left me and my dad in the park. But first aid was ready to call 911. Which is what my mom did the first time he had a seizure, but after that, we would usually just wait it out and get him checked out later. He hasn't had another seizure since about age 5.

 

[Gabe1]

Oh, you HAVE to take pictures of that!!!

Will do. Maybe my DD can upload them since my upgraded iPhone to 9 doesn't upload photos here anymore.

 

[Gabe1]

If nothing else, this trip will boost your confidence even more, in many ways. You'll feel great while you're over there, and you'll feel great when you return. Sounds like a win-win to me!!

I wholeheartedly agree. Sometime like what @Goofyernmost is experiencing is more the unknown than age. He'll have a blast and be so happy that he had a great new experience.

Yep, they really do cover their Tushies.

Not so happy Tuesday Y'all.(back to work after a week off).Only 9 days until National Cat Day.

@Gabe1 , how's you DD enjoying her new place? She's been there for a number of weeks now, so I was just checking up on her! How you doing with her away?

Her place has pulled together nicely and it is an amazing first place, very classy. I thank God everyday for my friend that let me know she was going to have a vacancy. She loves it. Who would not. When I can upload pictures again I will share. I've contacted @wdwmagic and he is trying to help with whatever has suddenly gone awry. It is a sweet separation, she is less than a mile, she is here everyday and I'm there almost daily. We are still both tied at the hip. I love this new wonderful adult friendship we have over just Mom/Daughter, she is a lovely young lady that is enjoying her new independence.

If only food could be sent via the internet!!

Dont we all wished that happened?

so much food to try, but sometimes you cant try because its too far away.

@MOXOMUMD and @StarWarsGirl95 , have you both seen the thread in New and Rumors? It's called:
Disney's Hollywood Studios to host an opening night event to celebrate the Force Awakens

I thought of the both of you!

I bet its going to be hella expensive upcharge ticket lol

Hubby just purchased tickets for us to the opening night of Star Wars at a local theater. He is as giddy as a school boy! Now he is anxiously awaiting the preview of Star Wars during Monday night football. I think he will probably make me watch at least 3 times.

the new trailer was just uploaded on youtube.

Airplane! is probably the only comedy movie I truly love. It's just so brilliantly funny, much unlike "comedy" movies of today that try way too hard to be funny and end up failing to do so.

There are other good movies too.

Men IN Thighs for example..

Naked Gun too.

Another coffee-spitting moment, sans coffee!

I've read that cinnamon mixed with honey is a fantastic antibiotic if you are sick.

When I was growing up it was honey, garlic and lemon if you had a cold now that I think about it, it makes sense. They all have healing properties

The migraine is gone. Nothing a day in the ER and a couple of intravenous drugs couldn't fix. Feeling a little loopy now but no pain.

That's wonderful news.

 

[Figgy1]

Feeling fine, thank you for asking! No, I don't suffer from frostbite of the brain, but admittedly, my brain is a malfunctioning unit on all other levels.

So, yes, call a psychiatrist, but before you do that, there's plenty of other crazies on here that might also benefit from a group session. For example, maybe @MR FERRET and I could go for a two for one price deal consultation with the psychiatrist. (Note: I said one consultation, because after the two of us, I think we'd get kicked out as incorrigible!) (P.S.: I'd also pass along the word to the psychiatrist that there's plenty more where we came from, too!)

I think after one session with all of us he or she would turn in their license and check themselves in for a long heavily medicated rest

I'm not sure if I like the idea of ordering tickets as it's hard to plan this far in advance. At least it is for us because of the boys' activities. I'll also miss being on line with the fans in costume trying to figure out when they'll actually get in to see the movie.

So... has anybody here seen the movie Cats Don't Dance. No? Didn't think so, it's extremely obscure. For those who don't know, it's an animated movie about a cat who goes to Hollywood in its golden age to be a big movie star. It has a superb soundtrack and choreography by Gene Kelly. Unfortunately when it was first released in 1997, Warner Bros. did not advertise it at all and the movie ended up having an original theater run that was two weeks long.

I remember that one and I never understood why it didn't do much better at the box office. Now I know and it is rather sad.
