You know you're close when...

[Ducky4Disney]

... you start checking the weather in Orlando! So far it's 50/50, a little sun, high temps, and some scattered T'storms. You know, the usual.

...... when you have so many times, places, facts, figures, dancing in you head you don't know if you coming or going, I'm going.

..... you already start applying suntan lotion.

..... when you take out the bathroom scale to weigh your suitcases.

When you stop buying groceries in lieu of your Disney Fund growing....

You have now read, reread, and reread again the unofficial guide to disney, you have checked out every book from the local library, you record any tv program that may even mention florida, you've decided you aren't having another gram of fat until you touchdown in sunny fl, you decide you aren't spending another penny until you touch down in sunny fl, you check disneyworld.com twice a day to see if the park hours or closed rides have changed, you check disboards every 20 minutes all day long...thats when you know its getting close.

That's exactly what I was going to say! I just came from checking the WDW weather-I was so excited that it's finally got a weather report for our first day. Yes, that indeed is when it's getting close!

. . . you have more clothes in your luggage than in your closet.
. . . you have 407-WDW-DINE on your cell phone speed dial.
. . . you lie awake wondering if you move your reservations from GF to CSR maybe you should change your PS at LTT from 5:30 to 5:45.
. . . you know what GF, CSR, PS, and LTT mean.
. . . you start nervously eyeing your 13 year old when thinking about the newly installed metal detectors. You think the dentist will take their braces off for a week?
. . . you don't know if you should take an umbrella to work, but you know next week's average temperature and rainfall for a city 1,500 miles from your home.
. . . you use a stopwatch to secretly time each of your kids to determine which is the best candidate to send ahead to ToT FastPass.
. . . you have memorized your visa, master charge, diner's club, AAA membership numbers from giving them out so much
. . . you buy high heel shoes for your 6 year old so that they can pass the height restriction on Space Mountain. Your six year old is a boy.
. . . you rename your cats, Mickey, Minnie, and "Turnstile #18 - all the way to the left".
. . . you create a scale layout of the World Showcase on your kitchen floor in duct tape so you can walk off (and practice) the quickest route from the International Gateway to Test Track.
You start planning next year's vacation.

You get in the car and announce:
"Por favor mantenganse alajedo de las puertas."

You have a spiel you give as you drive to the store.

[Blueberry]

You wash underwear and socks each evening as every other pair is packed....

You stop buying perishable items like milk.....

You haven't spent a dime in a over a week, except for trip items to take along with you...

The answer to every question of where something is located..is, it is in the suitcase already...

 

[Sarahsmom85]

....you tell your dog she's going to overnight camp.
....you keep checking to make sure no one is getting sick.

 

[tinkerbell81284]

.... you start checking DIS every 5 mins to see who has replied to what post.
.... you go on disneyworld.com to check the My Vacation, My Favorites, etc.
.... check AllEarsNet.com to see what, where, how, etc. you are going to eat, shop, ride, etc.
.... you've calculated your budget down to the penny press machines!!!
.... you have every WDW phone number memorized along with each keypad question (press 1 for..).
.... you have posted so many times about your vacation countdown that EVERYONE knows!
.... you act like you are studing for your exams when actually you are highlighting each restaurant, ride, shop information that you could possibly found out how many steps it takes to get from World of Disney to the Earl of Sandwich.
.... you start using the Disney Trivia game as flash cards.
.... you look at your Disney pictures and scrapbooks so many times you feel like you're already there.
.... you start making these types of posts! HEHE!

You are at work and suddenly blurt out " Guess where I will be next week at this time?"
The people you work with wish you would leave now 'cause they don't wanna hear any more stories about how great the trip is going to be.
When there is no one else at home , you tell the cat all about your trip.

 

[tinkerb]

the weather? i don't care!!! i am just so happy that I am gonna be there

 

[Lori-n-NY]

Oh my god you guys are funny.

I had a lady today ask me where she could get a DOLE WHIP...
I told her in Fantasyland in the Magic Kingdom. She was not impressed with my answer. Maybe it is becasue they are in Adventureland not Fantasyland. I think she meant where in the mall could she find one. Of course all my anwsers are Disney like cuz I leave in 2 days.

I haven't checked this thread until now - this is too funny! I thought I was the only one who did all this stuff!

I haven't started packing yet, I work better under pressure. But I have done a lot of the other things, I don't know when I went grocery shopping last!

When I blurt out "Guess where I'll be in two days?" or "Two more days until Disney" - why does everyone look at me funny? Nobody gets excited about it except for me.

What's this about weighing your suitcases? Why?

By the way - good advice, roll up an empty duffel bag and pack it in your suitcase, it may save you!
