hi...
my name is momofmnm and YES I am a disaholic...
oh it started out innocently enough, you know, family vacation for five, staying at a Moderate resort, with non park hoppers...it was all fun and games for awhile, then I just started feeling this urge to "login" all day...I hide it from my dh...I tell him I was "in the shower" or "using the toilet" or "reading" but I think he has some idea...but he HAS NO IDEA...
At first all I wanted was a "little" info...you know..the reading of the Resort thread..isn't that where we all start the addiction?? Then I moved on to more "Serious" sites like Tikimans, and then came the POLY addiction. What a tangled web we weave my friends.
You know you have a problem when you talk to your kids about "lala's strawberry pie recipe" or "horsegirl's job as a therapist" or "zzubs battle for his wallet."
Not to mention that PRIME TR readind time in the bathtub...toilet...or converting the TR's to tape to listen to in your car on the way to soccer practice...only to sit on the bench the entire time and read UOG again...for the 3rd time....this week.
Before long I was spending hours on end writing my OWN 20 pg TR...SICK I tell ya....sick. Then to have your chest named after fruits (melons) by total strangers that you LOVE AND MEAN IT...well...what can I say??? Hence the OTHER Dis name; Polymelonmom...then your husband starts calling you melons, and the only form of communication you have is PM...or sometimes EMAIL...if you have that little "ding" noise that tells you you have a new email...otherwise you miss it...cuz you are on the DIS...
When your kids have to PM you to remind you they need lunch money...I'd say your in over your head. wouldn't you???
TWO DIS NAMES!! HELP ME!!
Pretty soon the tag fairys become your dealers, the Disers are the enablers, and the Dis becomes the ultimate key to "knowledge of all things Dis..."
ahh what a feeling.
There' nothing like it.
If your like me, you dream of Mexico Margaritas from WS soooo much that you wake up with a hang over and go make your self some Mickey Waffles for breakfast and hop in the warm shower with year old shampoo in a tiny bottle with a pic of a mouse on it. Don't even get me stared on the year old lotion...that stuff is like "buttah"...
Pretty soon you start putting the kids to bed a 4:00 pm so that you can have time to chat with your Maelstrom friends who are on Eastern Standard Time. Sure you may here "but mom, we had cereal for dinner the last three nights!!" but you just have that DRIVE, that NEED...
Don't even get me started on work. You know you have problem when you are a teacher and your lessons revolve around teaching students how to make "ADR's" and it never hurts to have 20 callers calling for a CRT table at 5:00am right??
In geography we get out the Park maps and diagram paths and ETA's from one ride to the next...
AND YES...the DIS can be counted as "SOCIAL STUDIES" just so you know...much communication happens here and it is my duty to teach my students how to properly communicate with others in a social environment.
You also know you have a problem when you read more TR's than you do daily news papers...and watch the Disney Planning DVD more times than you have your wedding tape, birth tape of three children, and all birthdays COMBINED.
And when you download Disney music on your Ipod for workout inspiration?? Yeah...thats messed up folks.
I tell dh that Lou's POD CASTS are "talk radio" at its finest...he'd rather hear Paul Harvey but come on now people...
As you can clearly see, I am a 29 yr old DISNEYPOLYFIEDFREAK who is in serious need of some intervention...
maybe I should book a DL trip to get my mind off of WDW...
