I need something to pass the next 38 days :confused3
 
Mostly I play with my Fastpass and dining reservations.

I woke up at 5 a.m. in May and checked for 177 days and couldn't get a Be Our Guest dinner reservation for Friday, then one opened up this morning. Crazy.
 
:rotfl:

I know what you mean, waiting is the hardest part. We aren't leaving until end of January and already have our resort booked, tickets bought, flights booked (did that just this morning), ADRs booked with the exception of a couple tweaks, hopefully. Now I am waiting for my FP+ date to arrive so I can do those as well. I am hoping that since I work in retail and since Thanksgiving is so close and Christmas is right around the corner, the time will fly by fast...at least I am hoping that will be the case :goodvibes. Have a wonderful time, according to your signature, it looks as if you will :banana:.

Congrats on the BOG, it's the only thing I'd like to get

Time flies when your're busy ;)
We'll do our best to enjoy it :)

I can't even discuss with the kids as it's a surprise and DW just tells me to do what I think is best, she's excited to go but wants to be there not talk about it :rotfl2:
 

It is so hard to wait! I am also a tinkerer and continue to play with FP's and ADR.
 
Watch the dis unplugged podcast every week and get excited!
Gosh, if I was any more excited I'd burst :lmao:

Tinker, tinker and more tinkering. That's what I tend to do.

Hmm, afraid to tinker too much. Heard all the stories of glitches in MDX and I work in Web software so I can imagine even worse things.

Sometimes glitches can work.in your favor! I was on the DIS one morning earlier in Sept or Oct, and I read there was a glitch allowing multiple tier one fp+ in MDE. Because of it we were able to book both soarin and TT and RNRC and TSMM.

As the day happened, we ended up not using soarin or TT..DH changed up the schedule a bit to get ready for the 1/2 marathon (rode during the wine and dine finish line party instead, before the rain closed TT), but we used both TSMM and RNRC the next day without a problem!

Wait until you see how it feels when you are home from your trip! :rotfl: I don't know what to do with myself!

Ahh, don't worry I'll make a special point to think of you as I drink a nice cold beer on Christmas Day in WDW :cool1::cool1::cool1:

Lol, yes! I'm on magical express right now and I'm already missing the parks and want to go back!
 
I'm gonna go against the grain and say to try not to think about it. Occupy yourself with something non-Disney/Universal, because if you keep thinking about it, the time will move so SLOOOOWWW! It sounds like you have everything covered (except BOG, but keep trying!).

Binge watch a TV series, read some books, clean the house...anything to keep your mind off it...then you will turn around and be on your way. Enjoy your trip!
 
Have 31 days till we check in to the Grand. Time is flying by but I am massively busy. So my advice....get busy.
 
Well I've found one thing to do. Creating disney ring tones for my iPhone :)
