And yes, ilvdland and I forgot to ride Heimlich's!!! Egads! This horrible feeling happens every year. I just thought I'd let the new people know what the name of the awful feeling is that starts just around your shoulders and weighs down upon you. Thanks to everyone who traveled and/or took time off from work. Is it July 09 yet?

Originally Posted By davewasbaloo Hey Ursula, At least your memory is recent, I feel your pain. It has been nearly 5 months since the Baloo meet. Very painful. Reading all the recent posts is like ripping off a nearly healed scab. Anyone have a bandaid? Glad you guys all had a great time!
Originally Posted By SoThisIsLove Ursula, oh my gosh. The pain is real, and it's tangible. Right now my biggest pain is in not getting to know you and the others better in our brief encounters. I guess that's the comfort of the future. There's always that next big meet. July 09. We will definitely be there next time, for our very first big meet. davewasbaloo: thought of you and your family and knightnfrees and smedley and all of the rest of you that I have come to virtually love all of the time. Both times on Pirates, both times I got the front row and I thought: where's Dave? Where's Gary? I would like to do the boat trick and I would like to do it right now, please. xoxo (Ursula: you are such a goddess)

I have tons of housework to do and no ambition to do it. *sigh*
Originally Posted By JazzCat I too have PMDS (post meet depression syndrome [I was going to call it PMDD, but then the guys can't relate to that.

It's definitely affecting my day.

I had a blast at the meets but the best part is always just getting to spend time with some of the people I love most in the world. For me, it's more of a separation anxiety and wondering how long until I get to see everyone again.
Originally Posted By iamsally I have a long history of Post Disneyland Depression. And this trip is no different. In fact, it is worse, knowing that we are going to have a bit of a *dry* spell. It is also made worse by the fact that for many years it was just us in the Park. Now, we not only miss the Parks but all of the wonderful friends we have met these past three years. We are looking forward to the International Meet but 505 days seems like a lifetime away. Thanks Ursula for bringing this up so others with the syndrom can know they are not alone. My name is iamsally and I AM a Disneyland junkie.

We always go once a year to DL, and next year my cousin is getting married in Maui, cause we can't afford to take 2 trips, Im going to miss my yearly trip. I would rather go to DL, than Maui. I have been there when I was 15, and it was boring to me. Now you know how hooked I am!

Originally Posted By tinkerbell1962 Wow, I'm not alone. Our drive home was sad ... however we've already planned to return again and make it a longer "LP July 2009 Mommies-Only-No-Kiddies-Road-Trip-Meet." Too soon to make our Hojo's room reservations????
