Long Overdue Disney Update
Well, it took me a while to get around to it, but the Disney trip was smashing enough to warrant its very own update all to itself. hooray for it.
Seriously though, i didn't think i would have anywhere near as much fun as i did. it was awesome. everything about it was completely perfect, except for the parts that weren't, and they don't even matter cause they've all been forgotten by now anyway. as a brief summary for those who weren't in attendance, and a fond recollection for those who were; some highlights:
~tv's on the back of every seat on the plane for hardcore music trivia contests (of which my homeboy joe dominated, and i came close to dominating)
~World's Hottest boys lacrosse team staying in our hotel(girlish squeal of delight!)
~five girls sharing a room with only two hairdryers.
~finding out that erica and i don't hate each other as much as we both thought, in fact we came to realize we don't hate each other much at all.
~chilling with homeboy joe and watching tourists spend way too much money on overpriced crap at downtown disney.
~entertaining thoughts of spending $85 on a mickey waffle iron, then deciding against it.
~waking up to 85 degree weather safe in the knowledge that everyone in jersey was under six inches of snow.
~braiding flowers into lindsay's hair and turning her into a truu-hugging hippy child.
~goofy smacking me in the face at breakfast.
~doubling over with laughter as erica got chased by a rogue spray-bottle weilding country bear, and then had to fend him off when he proceeded to grab her and demand the return of said spray-bottle.
~making fun of jen for actually wanting to accompany mr. martian on his tour of the hall of presidents.
~splash mountain.
~being forced agianst my will to sit through "it's a small world", and then having it sung back to me for the next three hours by erica, jen, and sam.
~playing random-person tag with a bunch of slightly scummy boys, and then proceeding to make out with one of them on pirates of the carribbean, and run away when they all went to the bathroom together.
~making fun of erica for starting every other sentence with "blah blah blah, rape."
~making fun of homeboy joe's back hair, but only because i'm jealous of his sexiness.
~laying sam a lot.
~amelia being the room nazi and waking everyone up an hour before we needed to be ready because she wanted someone to go to breakfast with.
~pineapple flavored ice cream served in pineapple juice.
~galavanting wildly about the swiss family tree house, and playing with the turnstile thingy.
~getting pictures with marvin, our hilariously funny tour guide on the river jungle boat thing.
~interpretive dance. 'nuff said.
~trying on way too many ridiculous hats.
~using a whole roll of film on the safari at animal kingdom.
~scaring mark by being "overly frendly"
~tigers cuddling! so freaking adorable.
~free pins from the guy at the komodo dragon pen.
~having the shit scared out of me twice by the dinosaur ride, and then chipping in to buy the picture.
~more ridiculous hats.
~epcot, and portuguese maps, british street theatre, deadly telephone booths, hot norwegian boy, yummy italian chocolate, bongos, fireworks, and the like.
~sitting next to andrew navarro thinking he was tyler savage and carrying on a conversation before i realized i was talking to the wrong person.
~mgm, tower of terror, even more ridiculous hats, yummy pretzels, and probably way more stuff that i can't remember at the moment and will have to be reminded of in a comment.
~epcot again, with more street theatre, The Hibachi Incident, helping monte escape assault by lauren henfy, canadians, shrimp chips! fireworks again, et cetera.
this will have to be continued tomorrow morning, cause i'm falling asleep at the keys. until then, you'll all have to wait with bated breath, as i'm sure you will.
*******continuation of yesterday's ramblings*******
so, where was i? oh yeah, recap of events. ok, so, to proceed where i left off:
~Dance party! although when i made an appearance, it had morphed somewhat into a giant-card-game party, but that doesn't matter, the intent still remained.
~free rainbow tattoo in the box of 95 cent japanese candy.
~avoiding every water slide at blizzard beach in order to take full advantage of the last day of nice weather we would be exposed to.
~trying without success to convince sam that she needed to lend me $8 to buy grapefruit, cause that's what people do in florida and it would be a travesty to return home without a citric fruit of some kind.
~finding a buzz lightyear voice changer in the airport, and proceeding to annoy the hell out of everyone at the terminal with it.
~offering rob a dollar to have sex with me, and then being told that he would have to check how his stocks were doing and get back to me, which i think is rob-speak for no.
~being dubbed "snugglehelmet" by sam.
~cuddling with mark because it made him uncomfortable.
~ryan's big, manly mickey tattoo.
~the pink flower in my hair that couldn't make it as far as newark, much to my chagrin.
~discovering that shrimp chips live up to my every expectation and are, in fact, disgusting.
~my word salad that made sam piss herself with laughter on the bus on the way home.
ok, there's lots more that i'm forgetting and will be reminded of in snarky comments later, but whatever, that's all i have for now. ahh, florida...life was good then. how i wish i could return to bask in your sunshine-drenched wonderfulness. alas, i am stuck in jersey with its rain and its cold weather and overall misery. woe is me. *sigh*
