500 Followers! YAHOO! (Not a plug for Yahoo site, but rather a exclamation of excitement.)

Hello all,

Well, 500 followers could not have come at a worse time.  I am currently on my way to the Happiest Place On Earth with the fam (I know you're jealous Tammy) and so the Blog O' Cheese will be on hiatus for the next week or so.

If we are both lucky, I will be able to do a post or two while standing in line for that dreaded tea cup ride.  If you are even more lucky, I will post a picture of my vomit after the ride for you.

It is only fitting that my 500th follower is my best friend, Steve.  It's about time he jump aboard the Cheese train.

I promise, upon my return, sometime shortly after January 24, I will be ordering the Chinese and picking it up in my Barney costume.

That is, as long as my followership does not drop below 500.


Bless you all for your continued readershipdom.

    Hooray, hooray! Congratulations!

    I'm glad 500 people decided to "follow the yellow cheese road" to Oz! Let's all sing, "People all over the world, join hands; join the cheese train, cheese train"!

    I don't know if I'm the Tammy you meant, or if you meant your SIL, but this Tammy is jealous!! In fact, I was just making reservations for our trip there this year. And I only have 9 months to talk Luvpilot into it. (He vowed to never go there again after our last trip).

    Very nice!

    If only you had room in the luggage for that Barney suit. How awesome would the footage be if you were standing in line at Disneyland in a Barney suit...

    This is just effing awesome. Congrats to you.

    Have fun on the vacation.

    It is ironic that you hit 500 today and I broke the 100 barrier.

    I am both jealous and glad I am not you all rolled into one. Jealous of the trip to Disney World because both the hubby and I never went as kids, once we got out of college we went and continued to go every year and then as we added kids the trips have been few and far between. Glad I am not you in a Barney costume ording an egg roll! Have fun!!

    Have fun! No one better drop out or I'm going to have to start a Facebook page "Barney and Chinese or ...okay, I'm not that quick on something catchy, but I'll think of something.

    Second thought, no one stop following, because by the time I come up with something catchy, we may all have great, great, great-grandchildren experiencing February 22, 2222. In which case my days of thinking of something catchy would be long over.

    Let's just go back to HAVE FUN!

    You went to Disney and didn't invite your loyal followers along? Revolt!
    well, while you are gone we have to gather together to see if we can find a way to make Barney get a Chinese food bath or something?? enjoy your family fun time! Then it is time to gather up your favorite purple PJs ( I know that is where the Barney suit is really coming from, already had it didn't you?)and get ready to share the crunchy noodles!
