Well the good news is that I have a new job at which gives me double the vacation I'm getting now, and I can take it anytime, which means possibly more cruises, the possible bad news is that they may not let me take vacation in 4 months when my cruise is booked! I'm hoping they will but being the new kid on the block and not sure how soon ...

Had to open the eyes, and guess what? yup, it's still snowing! Guess I'll just stay on the ship, have another drink before dinner, have one with dinner and have a couple after dinner while in the casino.

Karen you have the most fun a MonkeyHead could possibly have! (which I know you will) I so envy you and will defintly be thinking of you on the cruise. Thank you for the drink, warm weathter and tropical breezes! I have my eyes closed and this is all I can see now, I see NO SNOW!    Just hope the boss doesn't walk in, I may ...

Ok, it's snowing here and I just can't handle it yet, so, please mix me a slushy drink and let's sail someplace warm with tropical breezes, warm water and lots and lots of sun! I want to feel the warmth of the sun on my little face. Could someone please bring me some chocolate covered strawberries please. I would also like ...

Right Tom, so would you all hurry up and go so I can go next! LOL. I still think a lot of the fun is the planning and the anticipation. Tom you aren't going again until the Dream cruise?

Ok I know I'm ready to go now, I have purchased the plane tickets to Fort Lauderdale!! I am so excited and still have 156 days to go. It's going to be a very long and cold winter. Everyone around here thinks I'm nuts for getting so excited about something so far off but I know all of you understand why I'm so excited, they just ...

Chassie, can you take pictures of Linda dancing on the lido deck tables? She could become the next poster child for cruising and the fun that can be had by all!

I got a ship on a stick by being a "constestant" on Jepordy. Talk about making a fool out of myself! I put my name in a fish bowl and my name got drawn so when I got up on stage, I knew nothing and I mean nothing. My ship on a stick was a consulation prize and is now a prized possession of mine and would never part with it, and I to ...

I always bring a small (approx 2" x 2") battery operated alarm clock. It takes up no space but allows us to know what the time is when we get up or getting ready for dinner or if we need to be up early in the morning for an excursion.

Sounds like you hand an awesome cruise! I can't wait for the chocolate melting cake, it has to be the best cake ever. I hope when I set sail we are taken over by the Black Pearl and Captain Jack Sparrow is in charge! I guess I'll have to just surrender, and do what he says. LOL Again welcome back Pam!
