I never thought I had the obsessive compulsive planning disorder like Faireygod mother or pfishgirl, but JEEZ! This cruise planning is killing me. I can't think of anything else. I think I'm going crazy. I dream about "ressies" and "TTAPs" and "Golden Mickeys".
I haven't booked our return flight yet. Should we spend an extra day in Florida or come straight home? If we stay, where? DVC points or cash? If we come straight home should we book the earlier flight with a plane change in RDU or take the later, nonstop flight? DCL transfers or Happy Limo?
How are we going to get DS potty trained in time? Threats, bribes and beatings haven't worked! Is DD responsible enough for sign in / out privileges? Should we get her hair braided? How many braids???
All the wonderful tips on DIS are running together. What if I forget to pack duct tape, clothes pins, tin foil, gummy worms, kaleidoscope, etc, etc, etc???
Dramamine or Bonine?
Massage? Cabana or spa?
Excursions or free-wheelin'?
Banana boat or Parasailing?
Straw market or........no, never mind. I've READ about the straw market.
Can the Pinocchio's pizza be as good as Brothers in Cinnaminson?? Nah, not possible. Not even Disney could pull that off. But is it at least edible for a pizza snob like me?
What if some ******* on the upwind adjoining verandah smokes? That'd REALLY bother me.
When, oh WHEN will the tag fairy visit me???
Should I buy pirate costumes for the kids? Semi-formal wear for the adults?
Do I dare miss a meal in the dining room in favor of room service?
Am I going to have any money at all remaining at the end of this trip?
All rhetorical questions, to be sure. But I never had this much trouble planning the annual ski trip. I had considered rebooking while on board but now I realize it's too stressful!
By the way, a great big thank you to Corryn and Hygiene99. Thank you all for the pointers and thanks for letting me vent. I can see that I'm in need of some serious psychiatric help, but I'll wait until after April 7 to get it.
