A girl ought to Celebrate what passes by-New PTR link up 7/16/10

Warning-this segment stinks, and I have no photos.
I switched to the TTC for the Epcot monorail. I got out, and headed to the Wonders of Life pavillion-I mean the Festival Center. They had a bunch of Wine and Beer. They had sold out of the Messenger bags. I headed dejectedly to the Interventions to get a Kim Possible phone. I got the Norway adventures. It was a lot of fun. I was hungry, so I grabbed a quick snack at the bakery. I headed over to Le Cellier. I was looking forward to it very much-the vegetarian entrée was gnocchi, which I love. I was seated fairly quickly, and I ordered my meal. I had a waitress and a trainee, both of whom were excellent. I ordered my gnocchi.
I stated eating my gnocchi, it was mushy and meh. I told my waitress, and she got me another great pasta dish. Then OMG! My tummy hurt something fierce. I apologized, got my Moose to go, and went back to POFQ and rested
I was glad that, as Scarlett said, tomorrow was another day.
(Issue was found out at home to be something other than I thought it was, and after a gazillion doctors checking me, it got fixed!)

I awoke the next day feeling much better, and ready to rock. However, my illness did a number on my brain-so don’t expect the Hedy who can interpret someone else’s TR notes. And my memory card was full. I headed off to Epcot. I entered, and went on Test Track. I went over to Interventions (always and forever), and did the Great Piggy Bank Adventure. I tried to video it, but 50% is me going “Um, it’s hard to do this alone. OMG it’s a personal finance analogy LOLZ!” I am therefore sparing you the torture. I got a Fastpass for a Kimmunicator. I stopped in Mousegears, looking for the Jack’s head ornament I’d seen earlier. I also needed to exchange my ticket holder (In August-I had picked up this guy at the WoD http://www.laughingplacestore.com/Product-6858.asp. This is AWESOME. It stays on, you can clip your phone (great for live Tweeting!), and water to your lanyard). However, my water bottle holder had popped off. Exchanging it was a piece of cake, but there was no Jack ornament. I had a tofu and noodle bowl in Sunshine Seasons, which was very good.
I got my Kimmunicator, and my mission was in Mexico. (Insert tired announcement about me living in Oaxaca in college and seeing alebrijes on the side of the road). While my mission was cool, one part wasn’t working, which stunk. I then headed into the Cava, where I had some Mezcal.
I continued walking around the World Showcase. I headed over to Canada, and hit a few Food and Wine stands. Ice wine tastes a lot like mead. I met with Marie and Aurora, Marie was behaving very cat-like. I then took the bus soon.

This is how close my room was to POR.
I stopped briefly at POFQ to change my memory card, and hopped on the boat. I really liked seeing the Treehouses looking lively. I got out, and headed over to characters in flight. It was down. I then headed over to Planet Hollywood. Now, I was minorly concerned about my stop here, as my usual pasta pomodoro had been not so great at the NYC pne in September (this was the first time I remember having a bad meal in 11+ years of Planet Hollywood fan girldom). I was seated easily, and ordered. This pasta pomodoro was fine. I used my coupon easily, and headed to the gift shop. I got my free gift (a keychain), and bought a shirt. I fully plan on using this NBC set piece as my ace in the hole to get my family to Planet Hollywood when we go together.in 2011.

I then headed over to the WoD. Owing to the 10% discount, this is usualy where I do the bulk of my souviner shopping. I picked up some car accessories, and some other stuff. I was looking for a zip-up hoodie, as my Tink one I got in 06 was looking a little beat. I didn’t see any, but I did see a nightgown I liked (and got). I went over to Goofy’s Candy Co, where I was heartbroken to learn the amount of toppings for free had been reduced, but I got my massive Oreo cooking anyway. I then poked around the discount store and didn’t see anything. I popped into Tren-D. There was a cute Mickey cardicoat, but it was itchy. They also had a cute sort of sweatshirt/jacket thing. I tried on the Xl, and surmised that I needed a 2x. I asked at the register, they gave me the item number and told me to check at the WoD. While there, I saw a cute Mickey seatbelt makeup bag-as I’d smashed my eyrow power, the Ziploc I keep my mineral makeup in was out of commission. It was $68, so I passed. I headed over to WoD, there was one that might be at CSR or Beach Club. I mentally added popping by the Beach Club the next morning to my plan. I hung around W0D, then took the boat home. I decided I would go to DHS the next morning.

Hope this was nothing too serious, but good to hear it's been fixed. I'm also glad you bounced back quickly and were ready to go the next day.

This is how close my room was to POR.

WOW - that is really really close.

The next day was supposed to be AK, but as I’d been there earlier in the week, I opted to go to DHS. I got up early, headed onto the bus, was there at Rope Drop, and went to TSM. From there, I stopped by to meet Lightning and Mater.

I noticed the lights, which at first seemed out of place, until I figured out that people were coming for Christmas the next week.

I wandered into the shops of DHS-I got a Mickey/Minnie Victorian ornament for myself (I have the matching music box). I also picked up two star ornaments, which I gave to Mordie and Ferdie as host gifts on Thanksgiving. I then went over to the big DHS gift shop-I’d wanted to check out the Mickey journey pendant, but I decided I wasn’t that into it. I did get a hoodie, though. I wanted to head to DTD, so I decided to play bus roulette. A bus to SSR pulled up, which seemed logical, as you can walk to DTD from there…..right?

OMG! I forgot to mention this: So Sharpay had opted not to audition for the AI when she was there in August. I thought you had to stay all day. So, after finding out you did not have to be there all day, I read over the list of songs. I'm a theatre junkie, I know lots of songs. Suddenly the best I could do was eh... I finally, I decided on my old voice lesson song.
I went into a room with a woman with a Macbook. I started to sing, and thought I was going to keel over dead of fright. Seriously. I didn't get it, as my voice was too chorus-y (which I knew). I liked auditioning, though.

Hey all,
I've decided to give up this trip report. I was kind of a mess, and I don't remember much. I would like to thank the DIS for giving me something to do during some rough times in the past 18 months. I credit the P/TR folks with helping me get my "me" back, and as such I want to only prduce fully awesome TR's.
However, I will be starting a niversal PTR, which I will link to here and in my siggy. Also, a Podcast 2.0 PTR will also be starting. soon.
