I'm around. I'm still trying to catch up. I haven't forgotten about yours either. I haven't had a chance to totally annihilate yours, err umm, I mean politely comment on the wonderful trip you had. I'm still trying to catch up on yours to. You're a lot further ahead then the BROTHERS Grim.
ooohh!!! l LIKE it! I LOVE it! they are a lot alike, they look alike.. they are both German....hhhmmm. (glad I'm not a blutbad)
Hi Nebo and Smidgy,
Guess what got me back to the DIS???
My back went out.
We do everything we can not to hurt our backs and it is the little things. I was helping my dh put our room air conditioner in our Bedroom. I opened the window and like you, I woke up that nite and couldn't get out of bed. Thank goodness for stashed Vikes.
Get that next post up, or as many as you can and give me more to read.
Fifty bonus points to Smidgy for "Blutbad"
I'll throw a bone to the non-German crowd, it means bloodbath
i guess you could guess that, huh? (how is that for unelegant wording followed by more unelegant wording?)
can you beleive I came home from work last night about 12:45 and didn't know nebo started a TR??
I felt like such a good little disser, posted on ponzi's report. laura's (at least I meant to), even MrsKsomeday!!
and all the while my own hubby had a TR going.. oops! so here I am honey!!! ready to rebut.. tell everyone what REALLY happened!
I am sooo looking forward to your butt... er your but... I mean your rebutt... Hmm still not quite right. Oh well. Hey Smidgy and Nebo, don't forget that Winkers (my better than me half)has started her tr in England, Paris, and DLP! (sorry, just had to hi-jack your tr) I'm done. Last time for a hi-jack. Enjoying everything and everyone so far!
oh no!!! and naturally, it wasn't lifting the heavy air conditioner that put your back out,... it was opening the window!!!
one time Nebo was going to pu tpeat moss in trenches for our new hedges. he was afraid of putting his back out if he hefted the huge bags. so.. he "carefully" tested lifting just the end of one bag.... oops! that did it!!!!
mari! hope you feel better soon, but in the meantime, hopeNebo gives you some laughs!!
I must confess.. I didn't learn thatword from my 2 years of German lessons. I learned that from Monroe (tape it every friday night.. Grimm!) I didn't know that meant bloodbath.. gee, monroe is so sweet! (nasty alter ego, though)
Oh Nebo . I was worried when I read you were going to try to make it with only 4 doses and NOW you've thrown your back out! YIKES!! Smidgy, hope you doubled up on the alcohol to help YOU through the trip!!
(Sorry if this posted twice. Thought I hit submit, but I don't see it, so I'm retyping.)
Yay! You started!
Aluminum tube of death, cutting back on the vikes, and you threw your back out? This should make for one great read. Though I'm sorry that it happened to you.
I hope that you had plenty of little bottles...
Pouring a glass of Sunny D.....first update and you are already low on vikes and hurt....this is going to be an epic trip!
Jill in CO
Here we goooooo I might have a little trouble keeping up with all these fantastic writers I'm subscribed to, but I'll try!
Slipped in under the radar!
I'm here though!!!
Gee, a Nebo AND a Ponzi trip report... my reading list is complete now!
I hate that about your back, I sure hope it wasn't too bad during your trip... guess I'll have to keep reading to find out.
Dawn
So, of course all my shows are off until the fall... I just finished all the seasons of Downton Abbey- my NEW FAVORITE SHOW- so I'm ready for that to start up again in like November... and just finished my latest book.
I keep thinking... what the heck am I going to do all summer... THANK YOU NEBO FOR GIVING ME MY ANSWER!
I GET TO READ A NEW NEBO & SMIDGY TR! I have a feeling it's gonna be a good summer... until I get the newest installment in August!
I was expecting not to read any Nebs & Smidgy adventures until August, so I'm pleasantly surprised!
Thank you so much!
So glad I'm along for the ride.
Much like the car ride down there, being squished into the backseat with so many avid readers-- this time we'll all probably be in an overhead bin. I can barely fit a gym bag up there... I hope we all fit!
Never thought about the glowing teeth effect, have to try it out on my grandson.
Yeah Nebo, welcome to my world, getting schooled by a four year old. I know you have already experienced it with your boys, and now the fun continues with your grandchildren. The glowing teeth and eyeballs are actually funny and kinda neat and they change the whole perspective of the ride. DD is really creative. She thought it was such fun and of course, we had to give big reactions.
The really funny part was that on the last Winnie the Pooh ride of the trip, we had a couple right behind us in the honey pot and they realized what DD was doing. They cracked up and were helping get a reaction out of her! It was a cool/funny Disney moment!
Thanks for that Double D, I really look forward to being with kids again.
Oh boy!!! A Nebo and smidgy trip report that I am coming in at the beginning . I usually start on page 593 and have to try and catch up, then by the time I have caught up it is all over .
Going to be a fun summer with Laura and ponzi's reports to keep up with.
Can't wait to read about your adventures with TSA and on the AToD!!!!
Ah yes, Laura and Ponzi and Nebo,,,, the three stooges. Can I be Curly?
I'm in.
In what? welcome back.
Hi! I'm joining the party!
Hey new person, nice to have you.
Man, skipped over again in call outs! I swear I am the red headed step child on the DIS.
Have you tried muscle relaxers for your back? I like them and can get a really low dose - 5mg.
There there little O Kitty,,I'm a bit whelmed right now, nothing personal. And yes, tried muscle relaxers,,,, all they did was make me tired.
and all the while my own hubby had a TR going.. oops! so here I am honey!!! ready to rebut.. tell everyone what REALLY happened!
Oh well, it was nice while it lasted.
sorry about the back. glad to see a trippie in progress. Hopefully I canstay somewhat current. School year ends on Friday so I will have more time to try to keep up with you and ponzi. Even taking the laptop with me to the house of mouse next week and if lance dosen't end up at urgent care like last time might be able to only be a little bit behind. Glad you guys are back. Will we be having cookies on this trip? Ponzi has cookies...Just saying
Sorry Betsey, no cookies this trip, although I did toss mine once.
Thank heavens! I have been in withdrawal (albeit not as bad as the Neeb-Man) for a Nebo ans Smidgy trip report. Let the games begin!
WOw, been a Disser for almost 3 years and you still don't have 10 posts? I'm flattered.
I'm here...Heard there was a new TR from you...had toright over...OK Fine...I...OK ok...I walked...But I walked fast! I at least made it between the intro and the first chapter.
I'm around. I'm still trying to catch up. I haven't forgotten about yours either. I haven't had a chance to totally annihilate yours, err umm, I mean politely comment on the wonderful trip you had. I'm still trying to catch up on yours to. You're a lot further ahead then the BROTHERS Grim.
Yay I've read your other adventures looking forward to a new one. I hope you made it through security OK....TSA is generally clueless about pharmaceuticals in my experience -Amanda

2 days and 4 pages already! Nice! Exciting to have dueling tr's between you and Ponzi. My family will really think I've lost it with all the LOLing!
I have to admit that I was a little concerned about you not taking too many Vikes down to the World. If you are in pain how can you enjoy it! Kind of the way I felt about an epidural during delivery.
Hope this injury magically heals on the plane ride down and you are pain free and smidgy is grump free for the trip.
Irene
Yep, it was just from opening the window. I reread my post and realized the pain meds were posting and I never finished my sentence.
You and Steve are such a delight to read on the boards. I can't believe you flew down, half of your adventures stem from your road trips, but it sounds like the flight is going to be an adventure too. Looking forward to the next posting.
Yes, Coronado Springs Eternal;
with apologies to Alexander Pope.
Most of you know Smidgy and myself by now,
so I'm going to limit the intro part to just what you may or may not,
need to know.
It boils down to this:
I'm the good guy, she's the bad guy.
Now, if you keep that in mind throughout this report, it will be that much easier to understand.
No more Smidgy and the Grump, Nebonator or Nebo from the Black lagoon.
No matter what, I am going to go with the flow, roll with the punches or turn the other cheek. No matter what ails me, I will grin and bare it.
We are solo again this trip, this is a kind of "fill-in" untill we go in Auggie with son, his wife and our grandson, what's his name.
Oh yeah, Jackson.
I think she kinda likes me.
A bit.
I got hurt right before the trip.
I like to beat the Christmas rush.
There's also something to be said about being in volved in a terrorist plot and turning into random molecules in a fiery explosion in the aluminum tube of death!
so I thought the QS was a better choice.
Nebo was wrong,,,, Disney kicked our asps on the dining plan, wow, just when I think I've really got it and know all Disney,,,,,they beat me back down to size.
We also have a six in the morning flight from O-hare to Orlando,,,,yes, that is not a typo, that was the best rate I could find,,, this means that the taxi has to be at our door by 3: 30 in the morning, becauset this is the time Smidgy says he should be there.
She is not only, "She Who must not be Disturbed", but, "She, Who Must Not Be Argued With!"
I thought 4 would work just as well, but if there should be a meteor strike on the highway on the way to the airport and caused us to miss our flight,,,,you know where the fingers would be pointing.
Ok, now with that out of the way,,, I really mean this will be just a highlight trip report, mostly about her and I, park, pool, ride observations when needed
but I'm not going into detail on Winnie the pooh's ride, and If I say, "Come bounce with me" then just beat me.
One more part of my character needs fllushing out, though.
I did,,,,, not,,,,, save ,,,, them ,,,,, for the trip!
I'm going down for a ten night stay with a total of 4 doses of Vicodin!
Ok, that's ok, really, it'll be great,
Then I threw my back out packing.
It was late Friday night, I had been slowly, kinda packing all day and when I went to bed, I forgot the suitcase was still sitting on the bed, and without thinking I just kind of grabbed it and flung it to the floor.
Suitcase had a bottle of whiskey, bottle of vodka, Sunny D's,, it was much heavier on the inside than it looked on the outside.
Got that little "twinge" way down by the belt, didn't think too much about it,,,,
until I got up to go take a leak 3 hours later!
I can't believe it! So many times when I try to do the right thing, it blows up in my face.
But now I'm scared to death to go through security.
So, Saturday night I'm lying there with an Ice pack, picturing prison life and wondering if they'll find me attractive and just a couple of months ago I just had my prostate checked for the first time in my life and I didn't care for that in the slightest
I'm also trying to figure out how to take off my socks without screaming, I don't want Smidgy to see how bad it really is.
coming up,,
my own personal TERROR with the TSA.
nebo said:I'm also trying to figure out how to take off my socks without screaming, I don't want Smidgy to see how bad it really is.
Because she won't notice when you tell her to carry the bags out to the cab.
I must confess.. I didn't learn thatword from my 2 years of German lessons. I learned that from Monroe (tape it every friday night.. Grimm!) I didn't know that meant bloodbath.. gee, monroe is so sweet! (nasty alter ego, though)
