Originally Posted By VacationWarrior Hey there Lisa and Litter, I have big problems. I'm what they call a vacation warrior. I'm driving my husband nuts with all my planning and online research. My kids find reasons to not eat dinner with us anymore because they know I'm going to talk incessantly about Walt's vision, ridemax, disney dining vs. eating off property, should we do magic mornings, should we get AP online or buy a parker hopper than upgrade to an AP on the second day so we get the PAP discounts or wait till the 4th day so we can apply the $25 dollars from the hopper to the PAP, do we want to make priority seating for all three meals each day, just one meal a day, is the Blue Bayou work it at the higher price, is the monte cristo better at Cafe Orleans?, if we arrive at 9:30 vs. 9:00am do we have a better change of getting Space Mountain FP's or should we run to all the off network FP rides first. Can you see where I'm going here, I've got problems. Did I tell you about my trip to Europe? I'm still researching whether to rent a car or take the train through France. I've heard in Italy they just do not stop, the rubberneck you to death, I wonder if I'll need extra insurance if I rent a car? Did you know that they only post a street sign between cities, not all along the road way as you are going, there's no 25 miles more to Rome, nope you just go and go and go hoping you are headed in the right direction. Oh and they have turnabouts like Boston does, I'm so scared to drive in one of those. They said just have the passenger roll down the window and scream STOP to all the other cars. Wow, is that crazy or what. Can you help me?

Even though in the 80's and 90's I married some real dorks, I'm still pining for Davey Jones. Do you think if I write him he'll remember he from my prom way back in the 70's. I still find him so groovy. It's really starting to interfere with marriage #3. My husband Harry resents my Davey posters in our bedroom and that I still keep a diary with a heart and Davey's name next to it. He's most upset over the fact that I still wear knee high socks and plaid mini-skirts. Men! ManicMarcia

They wanna throw him off the roof to see if he can fly so they can all go to Disneyland. Lou's telling them to hold off until we can figure this thing out. What do you think we should do?

I'm sure my dear readers will understand and be patient. Hang on, dears. . .
Originally Posted By Pixie Glitter Dear At her wits end, You must get the children and the little pig down off the roof immediately, dear. (Especially the pig. Miss Litter is inordinately fond of pigs). Perhaps you could lure them down with some of your famous homemade preserves? If all else fails, you might tell Lou that they're all up there on the barn roof trying to contact aliens. I'll bet he'd figure out a way to get them down in a hurry. Good luck, dear!
Originally Posted By Pixie Glitter Dear SweetGirl, First of all, dear, is this the same boyfriend who wanted you to spice up your. . .er. . .romantic life by dressing up like Mickey and Minnie Mouse? If so, Miss Litter would strongly advise you not to go to Disneyland with the young gentleman. Really, dear, that would just be begging for disaster. Think about it. Good luck, dear!

TravelWarrior - Girlfriend you need to stay out of Vacation Planning for awhile, things are moving at a fever's pitch over there. Breathe just breathe. How many times have you been to DL? Sooner or later, you need to give up RideMax, give up the binder and go free style. Try it, it's life changing! Marcia, Marcia, Marcia! Have you seen Davey Jones lately? Girlie, he's like a 5' 2" 80 lb wrinkled prune. I know that's a step up from the hubhby #1 and #2 that I seen in the Brady's Thanksgiving and Happy Holidays with the Brady's but get a grip, I mean c'mon get a reality show and score a male model, I mean your bro Peter did it.

Originally Posted By Pixie Glitter Dear Sleepless in Denver, Oh, how wonderful! Miss Litter is so excited for you, dear! And I completely understand your pre-trip insomnia. (Of course, Miss Litter's own pre-trip excitement is sadly tainted by fear, as Lisann seems to show up everywhere she does, no matter how carefully Miss Litter guards her travel information, but I digress. . . ) I have found that the best way to make the time pass quickly is to occupy myself doing nice things for others. For example, you might compose a lengthy and detailed list of potential souvenirs you might buy for. . .oh, I don't know, let's just use your favorite advice columnist, for example. Then you could further categorize your list by her (or his, of course) favorite Disney characters (Tinker Bell, Ariel, and Belle), favorite colors (pink, green, and blue), and favorite types of gifts to receive (expensive yet tasteful and preferably glittery). This will not only pass the time before your trip quickly, but it will allow maximum shopping efficiency while you're actually in the parks. Which frees up extra time for you, dear! No need to thank me; I live to serve. Good luck, dear!

I think my friend was chastised however I am not sure because of all the snorting I heard coming from her corner. I gently pointed out that snorting was rude and people might wonder if drugs were involved. Was that rude of me?? Perhaps I should have merely offered a tissue and decongestive??
