Just caught up! I wasn't as behind as I thought. Love the morning at DHS (my fingers really wanted to type MGM). I totally LOL'ed at Andy playing with the teeny boppers' minds on TOT. Heehee! Very cool picture of Davy Jones' organ on the Backlot tour, too.

Audrey is adorable in all her swimming gear. I recently read an article about how women shouldn't wear bling-bling jewelry to the beach/pool (it was accompanied by a picture of Beyonce with 12 gold chains on with her suit), but I think Audrey can pull it off with her beads. Looking forward to the next update -- I am recalling some of my own drinking experiences that lead to head injuries and hoping that it's nothing serious!

Lovin' the time at the pool. Add the adult beverage and it is just perfect! Audrey is just too cute! Love all the pics! The next update is a little worrisome.

When at work, I do type in Word... I don't know why I don't type it in something at home...but I am from now on

Okay…here’s this update…take two…
So after we went back to our rooms from the pool we got ready for our adults night out at Raglan Road. The Kids Nite Out sitter wasn’t scheduled until 7:30 so at 7 Lori and I headed down to try and catch the boat to DTD and the boys were going to meet us there. They had decided that it would be easier for Kevin to leave Audrey if she was screaming and crying instead of Lori having to do it.

Right as we got to the boat dock the little old man CM roped it off and said we’d have to wait. Lori lit up a cigarette and the little old man CM told her she was too pretty a girl to be doing that. Her response to him was the same annoying one she gives anybody that harasses her for smoking “I have no desire to quit, I like it and I’ll keep doing it”. What a b**** I thought.

So we headed back up towards our building and saw Kevin and Andy coming down the stairs. The sitter had gotten there about 20 minutes early and they had already gone over everything with her. Kids Nite Out! And when they left Audrey was perfectly fine… no tears at all

We grabbed a cab just to get on to DTD…our ADR was for 8. We checked in at Raglan Road and requested a table close to the music. Within just a few minutes we were called and seated next to the dance/bar/table.

We ordered our drinks and since I had enjoyed a couple at the pool I wasn’t quite ready to down as many Harps as possible…so I took it slow with my drink.


Andy and I of course had to split the Dalkey Duos…and Kevin helped us of course
Andy took this weird picture…


We ordered our food….Andy and I split the fish and chips and Lori and Kevin each had a steak. The music started up at 9….


We tried to get Kevin to go up and make a request…

He finally did but the group didn’t know that particular Irish tune

After a little bit longer of the music Lori started complaining she had a migraine. She didn’t actually complain to us but that’s what Kevin used as the excuse for why they might be leaving early….
About 9:45 or so they decided they were going to go walk around DTD…. Ok….we had planned this as a nice fun adults night out at the Irish Pub with drinks and music and you’re going to leave? Whatever….. Andy said that he felt bad for Kevin b/c he was stuck between trying to make his wife happy and not make her look like a butt while trying to be with his friends and be happy with them…. So he has to go with her to look like he’s being a good husband…. We were like “whatever” and stayed on to enjoy more music.

At about 11 they showed back up…. Okay, you had a migraine but you’re okay enough to walk around DTD for over an hour, while eating a HUGE CHOCOLATE CARAMEL APPLE?? Gimme a break. We had really looked forward to this night and they just really put a damper on the fun…..

We had to leave when they got back….the sitter was only scheduled till midnight. Well, we could have stayed, but we were tired and ill about what happened so we decided to call it a night ourselves….

On the bus ride back we were telling old stories from our Kevin, Andy, and Melissa days….Andy was telling some story and ended up knocking his head against the pole on the bus Then he took this disturbing the whole bus with the flash picture

We had become those annoying loud people you encounter on late night busses….you know those people…when you’re dead dog tired, just want to get back to your room and rest…but those “look at me” loud people won’t shut up people… we were those people at that moment…. How embarrassing….

We were all curious to see how Audrey had done while we were gone. During dinner Kevin and Lori kept saying they’d be surprised if she was asleep…that the girl probably had to club her to get her to go to bed….
Well surprise surprise… they opened the door and there was Audrey, sound asleep since NINE O CLOCK! The sitter was sitting on the other bed watching TV. She said they had played a while in the room, then went down to the foodcourt to get something to drink and then played outside a while. Then they watched a DVD on Kevin’s portable DVD player and she fell asleep. Imagine that….someone that knows what they’re doing can get her to go to bed….just imagine that…..

Anyway…as you can tell this was the turning point of the trip in terms of my bitterness. You’ll see when the next update comes….

Oh, no . . . . This is gonna be bad . . . . I can just tell by your tone . . . . Don't leave us hanging too long. I am starting to get nervous for the August trip when there will be 7 of us travelling together. Luckily, I'm no nonsense and I'll tell someone - "Just go do what you want!!"

Sounds like a frustrating evening for you and Andy.
Kids always go to bed better for other people. Just ask Andrew.
