It hasn't sunk in yet.

I keep seeing the comercials for WDW, you know the ones where the kids and the parents can't sleep cuz they're too excited. And I think, hey I'm going to be in their shoes soon. How soon you ask?

I fly on a red-eye Monday night and will be in Orlando on Tuesday. We'll pick up our tickets from TicketMania (didn't buy them in time to have them shipped) and head to the world. Which park is as yet to be determined since we'd originally planned on doing Kennedy Space Center that first day before realizing that there just wasn't the time to fully appreciate it so we added another day since it wasn't that much more to do.

I have so much to do before I leave. I live in Portland, my best friend (whom I'll be traveling with) lives in Seattle. We'll be flying out of Seattle so I'll be driving up there this weekend. I keep expecting it to sink in that in less than a week I'll in in the world for the very first time. But perhaps my preoccupation with things like trying to get over a cold before I fly and trying to get things set up to be fixed at the apt while I'm gone (our heater doesn't work anymore and the water heater is acting up) is a contributing factor.

So my countdown currently looks like this:
1 more day of work
2 days til I drive to Seattle
4 days til I fly to Orlando
5 days til I'm at the World!

Enjoy. I still can't quite believe that we're going either. It seems like only yesterday that my family was watching the WDW Christmas parade on TV shortly after getting back from Disneyland and everybody wanted to go to Disneyland again. The real shock came a couple of days later after I had gone back to work and my mom called me to inform me that they were tenatively looking at going to Disney World.
