I mean its not like you've had a hard time planning your trip or anything. I'm sure EVERYONE would re-arrange their schedules so you could meet up with Tink and me.

    Don't you think so Tink?

    BTW --- BUY YOUR TICKETS TINK! Geez Louise --- you got carte blanche permission. And I think Molly's idea was great too, new clothes! You'll be stylin' down Main Street. I can see those Disney crocs now!

Well, you guessed it, by the time I went back to buy them, they were gone and I had to spend an extra 10 bucks! (What a dope!) I haven't even looked today b/c I am so afraid they have gone on sale 1/2 price! I couldn't get us seats together on the flight I was trying to book, so I called the airline and this really nice girl got us seats together! (It's not that often you get good customer service these days! Continental is the airline.) I explained to her that one of my sons is 6'5" and has Tourette's Syndrome, so he twitches a lot. B/c of his size he constantly bumps the seat in front of him. I told her one of us has to sit in front of him, b/c if we don't, he always gets behind a cranky person! lol Maybe she thought she'd get me those seats so no fights break out!
    You won't believe what time this flight leaves. 5:30 in the morning. Yuck! When I meet Mickeynewe I will have bags under my eyes! I still have to order my DL tix today and we are trying to figure out how to buy these XGames tix. I might call Hojos to see if I can get them mailed there, since I am running out of time. (The DL tix get FEDEXED so I'm okay there.)
    I couldn't get on LP last night to tell you the news. It must have been on overload for DL's bday!

    I work about 5 miles away from Disneyland and can tell you its been cooler in the mornings so by the time the clouds burn off the weather is really nice and not TOO hot but nice and warm. It should be perfect for you! Have fun!

    Who gives a rip what you paid? In the scheme of all that is holy in life you are going to Disneyland, how great is that?

    Glad we finally got this settled. Now go get your packing done, you have frittered away enough time already.
