My motha actually said, “Wow!” 
She actually loved Spectro.
And my motha is never impressed by anything.
Great movie? How was it Ma? “Ehhhhh.”
Good food? How was it Ma? “Ehhhhh.”
Birth of your children? How was it Ma? “Ehhhhh.”
Watching your first grandchild (Jon) be born? How was it Ma? “Ehhhhh.”
SpectroMagic? How was it ma? “Wowwwww!”
This woman has her priorities right!
After Spectro, I grabbed hands with Jon and we formed a chain of human beings so we could head over to our Wishes spot.
Ya’ll who are TGM fans…ya’ll know which spot I speak of.
The best spot in the whole woild to watch you some fireworks.
And lemme tell you…were it not for the human chain…I would have no family to speak of.
Most of the throngs of people seemed to be leaving?
WHAT?
Leaving?
Why?
What are THEY thinking?
It’s Wishes people. The most inspirational, beautiful thing in all of WDW. Now…get the heck back here…grab hands with your loved ones…and be inspired…dang punks. This is meaningful stuff. People really tick me off. Heh heh.
So, we get to our TGM spot…and there are a few people there already.
Yea…ummm…move for my viewing pleasure please. JK people. I would never push people outta the way…like SOME people did.
We really did end up with a fantastic view of the castle! There was a little bit of a light pole in my view…but not bad! I had again…for the 2nd year in a row…scored some primo viewage! Score for me and the ultimate tour guide that I am.
Last year…we stood directly behind the Castle Suite winners. But, this year…I couldn’t find them. I knew I’d be tipped off that they were there by their private guide (which sounds like something altogether inappropriate…but it’s not…heh heh). But, no guide…no castle suite winners were in sight. Hmmmm…where could they be?
And that’s when I saw them.
There is a grassy knoll (not to be confused with any OTHER grassy knolls) next to the TGM spot…for you unknowing schmucks…it’s near the rose garden pathway...and all of a sudden…I look and there they are! The castle winners and their guide! They have now bumped them from standing (GASP!) to sitting in their own primo viewing spot during Wishes.
I took a picture of them…from behind. Heh heh. On the DL…that’s down-lo for you unknowing uncool peeps. My 12 year old taught me that. However, he still insists that I not use such words. But, he “explains” them to me so that I will be enlightened as to the latest and most awesomely cool teenage-ish non-English speech. Whatev.
Alas…I have no idea where that picture of those lucky-duck suite winners is…maybe it was lost in the Shamu shebacle. But, that’s a story for another day.
All of a sudden, the lights click off…and the music swells…
AND THEN…
Star light, star bright,
First star I see tonight.
I wish I may, I wish I might,
Have the wish, I wish tonight.
Eeeesh…chill bumps. There are only a few things in this world that can bring me chill bumps…
1. High fever. Not so gud.
2. Watching my son do something fantastic. Very very gud.
3. Brad Pitt, Ben Affleck, Jon Cusack, etc. Gud.
4. Getting caught with my hand in the cookie jar. Not so gud.
5. Wishes. Very gud.
And the show began…
Lemme set the mood for you. I’ll include some descriptive noises…
Boom.
Boom.
Bam.
Crash.
Boom.
Boom.
Bang.
Swish.
Sprinkle.
Wow.
Boom.
Squeak. Just wanna see if you’re still paying attention!
Ohhhhhh…ahhhhhhh!
That night, I held onto Jon for dear life during Wishes. Not because I was skeered. Not because he was skeered. But, because he let me…hold him. And we all know…that as they grow older…those moments come fewer and farther between.
I love Wishes. I love the message during the show.
I’ve wished for many things during my life. Some I’ve gotten…some I haven’t. Some I needed to ask for…some I definitely shouldn’t have…
But, what I really wished for on this night…was that I could have many many more moments like this again. Here…with my family…that I love (even my motha)…full of love and happiness and contentment. Here…with my son…who is BEYOND the most amazing kid. Here…where we can forget IT all…and just be. Just be happy. And enjoy each other.
Have fun people. Life’s too short not to enjoy your children.
And then it was done. We left the park…got right onto a bus and back to SSR by about 11:00. We all showered and hit the sack. Even me. Even through all of the snoring. SCORE one for the Gipper.
Up Next: Me and Phillameana M. Snipey!

Hey Janet, go look above, you weren't first
ok, this post is NOT going to show up in the right spot, most likely, so no one will probably read it. Janet WAS first. For some reason her post posted in the right spot, AFTER the update, but mine and yours posted above the update!
I'm telling you, it's totally creeping me out!
and then...I was PMing Jen back and forth and I tried to reply again and got this message:
This forum requires that you wait 15 seconds between sending private messages. Please try again in 2051 seconds.
If I have to wait 15 seconds, I *think* 15 is LESS than 2051 seconds :confused2: ok, this post is NOT going to show up in the right spot, most likely, so no one will probably read it.

Okay, that post went further toward the bottom but still above Janet. But we're making progress!
I just wanted to say that I tried sending the PM again and it finally let me. Even though it was telling me to wait 30 minutes before.

Only, that's NOT the spot I got from TGM!
Sometimes I leave before Wishes. Leo gets MEAN when he's tired. 
But wait - was there a Magic Bullet? Or even a Magic Loogey?!
There's a message?! You can tell how closely I pay attention.
Beautiful Jen.

I forgot to come back and post this earlier but I'm back now.
*BEEEEEEEEP* *BEEEP* *BEEP*BEEP*BEEP* this is a test of the emergency DIS posting system. This is only a test. In the event of a real emergency the airbags would deploy, oxygen masks would drop from the ceiling, and the smilies would all erupt into

Love it all! Love your descriptions...and humor...and relationship with your son...
Things have been kinda rough for me. Find myself receding from people-NOT like me. Facing some new medical problems-one being highly probable hydrocephalus. Need me a dose of Disney!
Thanks for the taste.
