Help me...I'm Disneyland OBSESSED!!!

[Porturican]

With my trip so close I can't focus at work...all I want to do is look up Disneyland tips, things to do etc... I keep trying to tell myself to FOCUS, FOCUS, FOCUS!!! but it's not working.

I can't help you... I feel the SAME WAY! We leave on the 13th. My two girls keep asking to watch Disneyland videos on You Tube. It's going to be a long 20 days! So excited!!

 

[heatherleigh]

I know I'll do the same thing. I'll probably start packing at the end of this summer! I remember my son watching YouTube clips of DL rides before our last trip. The only downside was that he stumbled upon a clip of the Jungle Cruise "behind the scenes". That was when he realized the animals were not real and the water wasn't natural.

I think everyone on here is a little Disney obsessed, there is nothing wrong with that, as long as it doesn't hinder your performance at work it's not a problem....I do the same thing even if we don't have a trip planned I am logging on here to read posts......That's the power of Disney and I love it!!!!!!YAY!!!!

HMMM...am planning 2 trips to DL, my solo trip in Oct, and a surprise trip to DL in Feb/11 for the kids. This all with a very bad back and have to lose 27lbs otherwise my back won't survive the flight over to DL (thank goodness for HOJO's hottub!!!) in Oct. I'm rabid to find out the details of the TOTP party and am constantly finding things to plan on both trips. I admit it...I'm a severe over planner, and addicted to DL and the DIS boards. Can't wait for the TOTP info comes out so that I can over plan that part of my solo trip. Have a great day!

I have been back from DL for a whopping 7 days...and I am doing the same thing. Does anybody know where I can find a chapter of Disneyholics Annonymous?

I'm right there with all of you. Our trip is July 20th and I can't focus on anything else. I have gone back to school so I'm not working right now so I pretty much spend all day on the Dis

You have just turned to fellow addicts asking for support. The problem is, we will just find a way to help add additional tours, ADRs, and days to your visit (while you pass the time waiting for your trip to arrive).

Welcome to the club! That was me today at work! And I still have over a month to go!

It doesn't matter where I travel I tend to obsess a bit with planning. Last summer I was going crazy looking up stuff about Yosemite, the 3 summers before that it Kauai all day everyday!
The good thing ( or the bad thing) is that there so much online Disney stuff. It's made the planning super fun but I'm getting carpel tunnel!

 

[ironlou]

Im the same way. We have 25 days until we leave and all I do is check various sites for up to date information. Particularly WoC

Ha ha ha ha you guys are cracking me up! Thats why I made my post because I knew that you guys could relate to me! Gotta love my fellow Disney-a-holics!

LOL you sound like me...besides my upcoming trip I am planning a trip in Oct for my son's 16th bday and then a trip with about 9 of us in early Dec for my 2.5 yr old nieces 1st visit! I was obssesing over hotels and rates but have now gotten that taken care of so I'm good there. But I wish they would post the Halloween time info too, I want to do that Haunts tour (or whatever its called) or the ToTP. I even said in the survey from their website that why does it take sooo long for Halloween time info/schedules to come out and WDW is already selling tickets.

How my solo trip came about, is I found some really cheap airfares from Westjet return, and sweet talked DH into me going on my solo trip this year instead of next. I have to lose 26 lbs because of my bad back, and expecting to have some form of surgery done on it within the next 2 to 3 years. With the weight loss, it might delay the inevitable for awhile, and make it easier on my back when flying in Oct. The trip in Feb/11 is a surprise trip for the kids, as DS7 is a worrier, and it's easier for him not to know about the pending trip. Won't tell the kids about the trip till we are on our way. Most of us on these boards are Disneyaholics, and are over planners by nature. Now if DL would start releasing details about the darn TOTP dates so that I can start to plan that part of my solo trip. Have a great day!

I've lost 45 pounds in the last Year and a half after joining the dis WISH board's challenges. The reason I lost the weight was my back. Nothing like that amount of pain to motivate. I'm at 130 now, and still can easily mess the back up but I've noticed my healing time is a lot faster. If I do my exercises regularly too that helps a lot. You should join us in the summer challenge :http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2466123

I'm really excited too-- nothing is phasing me....

 

[BELLEDOZER]

I've dropped 18 lbs over a 1 1/2 years, but need to get down to 140lbs, any lower than that and I look like a bone rack. Nothing like a deadline to get my butt off the couch and get serious about the weight loss. I've got a bike, and intend to do laps around the block once my back starts to feel a little better (blew it out on Saturday after doing 80 mins of standing preping dinner). I'll seriously consider joing the summer weightloss challenge. Have a great day!

Good job on the weight loss and getting healthy. I have lost 35 lb since Dec 2008 and have kept it off through my intake and yoga. I would love to join one of the WISH challenges but don't want to lose anymore weight- just keep exercising and eating right.

We just returned from DL last week & are already searching the net for cheapflights,accomodation to go back in 12mths time!! as were from Australia.

this was our first DL trip and we all just could not believe the atmosphere there, it truly is the happiest place on earth!!!

Your post cracked me up because I had just been thinking the exact same thing and then I read your post and it was like you were reading my mind!

Now that we have less than 3 weeks to go it is getting really bad: today I set my zucchini bread on a paper towel on my desk and when I moved it I swear I saw a "hidden Mickey" in the grease stain! I think that officially qualifies me as obsessed!

I can't post the picture, or else I'd share the magic
