Rob! Nice to have you here!

So, are you calling Barry short here or implying that he’s got too much “back”story?

Yes!

Quote:

That is a lot of work y’all did.
Impressive to say the least.

Thanks. We tried to get a few more people to hop on board but they refused.

Now look at 'em!

Quote:

And to listen to so many of the other fell’as…
Inspiring.

It ain’t inspiring me, mind you, but I’m still impressed by all the work.

Quote:

And that’s one of the reasons why.

It wasn't that bad but just when the running was easy and getting *GULP* fun, then I was sidelined for weeks at a time. The pain wasn't the crappy part, not being able to run was.

Quote:

Bless her.
Not an option I ever had.

Sorry to hear this Rob.

Quote:

Well… someone had to do it.
It just couldn’t go undone now could it?

That's what I thought. Although, other people in the airport were staring at me.

Quote:

Another of those parenting milestones.
Oh and congrats on the pending increase to the family.

Thank you!

Quote:

Hummmm…
We may have to call for a vote on that one.

All in favor....

Quote:

Nice…
You did make a point to steer clear of the section of the resort where part of the DDCC was generally creating havoc? Wouldn’t want to get caught up in any kind of dragnet ya’ know.

I haven't gotten that far yet but I will say I was close to the bachelor pad.

Quote:

That’s like being stuck in the standby line for TSM in late afternoon during Spring Break after all the FastPasses are gone and with an entire Brazilian tour group ahead of you!

Speaking of Brazilians, they were out in full force over the weekend.

Quote:

Did you at least get to shoot at something once you got to the front of the line?

Well, money shot out of my wallet.

Quote:

My name’s Obfuscate.
I’m glad to meet you there Mr. Blur.

Want me to blur a few more names for you? Then you can tell all your friends you were on that wall too!

Quote:

Sure do wish I could have been part of the whole convention, but I’ll have to settle for following a few good TRs.

Good TRs? From this group of misfits? I think you have your hopes set too high.

Quote:

Looking forward to tagging along if you’ll have me.

I already

D you... Will a

and a

do?

Randall! Actually, there will be penguins in the next update with a side of beatdown!

That is so cute that your little girl kicked you, she must be Team Barry...

NO!

Will you take a most definitely?

I'm in! So sweet that the baby kicked for the first time on the plane. I think its a sign she wants to go to WDW when she's born!

BTW, you know its just easier to DRIVE 13.1 miles, right?

Jill in CO

declansdad · 01-19-2013, 01:00 PM

I hope none of the penguins were harmed in the beatdown.

AJRitz · 01-19-2013, 07:44 PM

In!

Sounds like this baby is psychic. It told you that you were getting kicked before you even landed in Florida.

petals · 01-19-2013, 09:03 PM

You felt your daughter kick??? You found out what it is

Did you go to Disney without the little princess and prince

Jill! I am trying to talk Melody into using our APs one more time before they expire in Nov. Hopefully she gives in....

It is easier, but we are men. We are stubborn.

I can either confirm or deny injured penguins.

Yep. We left them home with our moms. It was weird being there without them.

reelmom · 01-20-2013, 12:13 PM

This is going to be great reading. Congratulations on having another Princess. Melody is beautiful as always.

beachta1 · 01-20-2013, 02:52 PM

Joining in on the TR! I'm hoping to run the full marathon next year so I'm interested in hearing about your half experience!

Poolrat · 01-21-2013, 09:03 PM

Limping on in.

Doing what I can to catch up.

Caught up. The airport is always empty when you DON'T have the kids.

Yes the expo was less crowded Thursday.... Walked right in and had some space to walk around too. Still did not see that wall... I guess others were looking for their name and I just walked on by....

I think I had the same CM at check in. Need to look on that camera for the picture.

I replied to Andy's TR before yours and didn't change the copy-paste header for the quotes. Or I'm an idiot. Or both.

jenseib · 01-22-2013, 08:22 AM

joining in. I will warn you, writing 2 is VERY hard. I need to get my Sept one done so I can concentrate on just one, but I just can't get the time to devote to it.

Well, I'm sure you'll be planning it that way a lot in the future. I know I would for free Dole Whips.

You read that for a little over an hour...

I've done that before myself. Usually I catch it as I post it and edit before it is too late. Or if I haven't caught it, I guess I at least haven't been called out for it.

The 1/2 was really a fun race. There are a few people here who ran the full... I'm sure they will tell you that the heat was no fun.

I know. It's like they know when you are bringing them.

Maybe I will have to shoot to be there on Thursday if there is a next time.

The wall was in the Josten's center once you walked down the left staircase.

What day did you arrive? Wed?

I wanted to get this TR done quickly. There isn't that much. There were only 4 days and I didn't take too many pictures. Melody always yells at me that we have 100 of the same picture.
