Its been a year since I uttered those words. Right here on the DISboards. In my very first TR.
And yet, here I am, about to start in on yet another TR. In September.
WHAT was I thinking?????
Well, theres a story there. (Isnt there always?) And it begins waaaay back last December. As some of you know, thats when I made plans to meet an awesome DISer named Lauralee and the rest, as they say, (ever wonder who they are??), is history. We got along fabulously and only half-jokingly talked about a girls-only weekend in The World someday.
Around the same time period, wed both gotten to know Disneyland_Mama, better known as Tracy, here on the boards and agreed it would be awfully fun to meet up with her, too.
And theres the rub.
Tracys plans called for a family trip to WDW. Once in 2007. Commencing in August.
Okay, August is not, technically, September. But I live less than two hours from The Mouse and Id be hard-pressed to tell you whats different about the two months down here. I can sum it up in a couple words:
HOT.
HUMID.
Repeat those about 1,000 times and youve got a pretty good handle on my life four months of every year.
What Im getting at is this:
Its all Tracys fault.
Actually, Jos, too. Thats DisneyJo. As we started seriously entertaining the idea of Lauralee and I popping over for a girls weekend and meet with Tracy, we got to know Jo and discovered shed be at WDW with her family at the same time. Well, I really wanted to meet her, too, so she can take some of the blame as well.
Oh, and lets not leave slate out of this little blame game. Ive been enjoying sorul82?s TRs and general funniness almost as long as Ive been on the DIS and could not pass up an opportunity to meet up with her. And guess what? She had plans to be at WDW in late August, too.
So, there you have it. My words from last year were rendered meaningless. Not only did my friends and family not keep me from doing anything so foolish as visiting WDW in summer again, four of them actually ENCOURAGED me to return. At this fright-inducing time of year. LY/MI guys!
And do I regret it?
Not a single, cotton-pickin bit! The fun I had this summer was worth every drop of sweat and sunscreen involved. And, believe it or not, theres LOADS more craziness and excitement than the DIS meet to report, though it certainly takes the cake or pineapple, as the case may be. Heh, heh.
So, hang on tight and come with me as I re-live
Vs Summer Vacation(s)!!!
