Am I crazy??

[dizneekrazee]

We are going to DL in October, I have nothing else to plan at this point as everything is planned, or is too early to make PS.

So I booked another trip for late May . I must be nuts, right??

You're not just crazy, you're dizneekrazee!!!

You will get a lot of support here in our local Dis looney bin.

If you run out of things to plan, you could help me come up with a list of reasons to give to dh as to why we need to go again in 2009.

... even though we live like 6-7 hrs away from DLR.

This was us last year, we got our AP's in July of 07 and made the drive at least once a month from Oct 07-July 08. We made a total of 14 trips, most of them just Friday night-Sunday afternoon but we loved it. And we are 6 hrs away. We wanted so bad to renew but we decided against it, we have some debt to get rid of so this is amazing incentive for us. After we get it paid we will reward ourselves with a trip, after it's gone we will reward ourselves with new AP's! LOL It's all planned out......

OP, I hope you get AP's too!! 2 trips in one year deserve an OP. One year meaning 12 calender months. LOL

Aww too bad you guys can't get APs this year. No worries though, DLR will always be there

That's our thought, and really, it does help us pay our bills better and faster. Since I won't be buying pins that money towards bills, since I won't be paying for gas, hotels, food....you see where I'm going. LOL

ABSOLUTELY. I know what you mean. I'm lucky enough to still live with parents while I'm a full time student (the fact that I'm an only child doesn't hurt either ) and they have no problem supporting me. This leaves me with more play money from my job than anything. I completely understand though because my parents have been in a situation where they had to skip on DL for a year because of bills. Its especially hard right now with gas prices and everything going up.

You are correct, and I'm really lucky because my girls understand why we are taking a break too.

You bet I get to go there!! I assume you are referring to Company D, we go each time we can, and dow will be going each trip. (We used to only get access a few months out of the year). We are also going to try to hit up Mickeys of Glendale this trip, another CM store that sells stuff.

Sooooooo.......... How did you book your May trip? I'm Jonesing to put my April 2009 trip to bed and all I've been able to do thus far is get airline tickets! LOL I want to stay at HoJo's but I'm waiting to see on the entertainment rates and the DL tickets aren't available for next year yet.

I'm so excited I can't stand it.

All I did was book my hotel stay. I did it online directly through the hotels website. As you can see in my siggy, we will be staying at Desert Inn and Suites. I may change to early June, but the rates arent up yet. If I can get a better rate then, I will change, otherwise late May it is!!

Crazy like a fox!! I when I read your post, because I did the exact same thing, only in reverse order. We have a 2 1/2 week WDW/DCL trip planned for 11/09 and I had kind of petered out on the planning that I can do for it right now. So when the PIN # mailer showed up 2 weeks ago, I jumped on it and booked a stay at DLR for this October. Plus, I talked my best friend and her family into joining us. She is a former DLR CM from 20 years ago (she did the silhouettes), so she definitely was an easy sell!
