Something I forgot about the trip. Friday at Magic Kingdom on Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin, I broke out my awesome laser tag skills, got what had to be the highest score ever and busted a cap in Taylor’s eye all at the same time. Just thought that was notable.

If this is where rock music is headed, I’m buyin. It’s better than 85% of the stuff out there now.

Right now it feels like I never left but when I got home yesterday it felt like I had been gone forever. I guess all of my PTO has been used to go back to Philadelphia so I’d leave home to go home. However this time I actually went away which was nice. The trip was great. We got there Saturday night and got the trip started on a great note; using our dining plan. This thing turned out to be the most incredible thing ever. Apparently it only cost us $60 a couple for the entire trip however our first meal came to $100. This seemed to be the pattern. We must have had at least 6 meals that came to almost $100 a couple and had to spend well over $700 on food just from the $60 meal plan. We gotta add up all the receipts to see how great it was, but it was great. After dinner we played some mini golf. It was the first time I had done that in years. Taylor won, beating up Kristin along the way, but we both beat Chris who was on his home turf and should be ashamed of himself.

The next day we hit up the Magic Kingdom and ate a Winnie the Pooh buffet breakfast. But man was it was a scorcher out there. It was pretty hard to take. I mean the temperature really escalated quickly. It got out of hand. Don’t go on Stitch’s Great Escape. It’s nasty. To beat the heat, we headed back to the resort pool, then went to Epcot and the San Angel Inn for dinner followed by the Illuminations fireworks and laser show.

Monday was Steph’s birthday. We went to Blizzard Beach. It was better than I remembered and there were some pretty good slides there. After the park we went back to the hotel, took a nap, then headed to MGM for some rides and dinner at the always fun Prime Time Cafe where our waiter made everyone feel good about their lives with his wonderfully down take on his.

Tuesday was a crazy food day. We started the day with the ‘Ohana’s Best Friends Breakfast with Lilo & Stitch. Awesome. Then we went to Epcot, killed that guy in like 10 hours, during which we ate lunch at the Coral Reef. That night we were tired so we chilled at the hotel.

Wednesday was…. boy this is hard to remember. I think it was a trip to Typhoon Lagoon. Don’t go there if you have to choose between it and Blizzard Beach. I went to Typhoon Lagoon when I was 9 and remembered it being awesome and went to Blizzard Beach when I was 14 and remembered Typhoon Lagoon being awesomer, however I was wrong. Unless you want to spend all day in the wave pool with kids flying at you from every direction, I would hit up Blizzard Beach twice. After being disappointed by that place and quickly running out of things to do, Kristin and I hit up the Animal Kingdom for a short while and then met Steph and Taylor for dinner at the Disney’s Spirit of Aloha Show which is an outdoor luau all you can eat… and drink!… feast. Unfortunately it was all you can drink Bud, but it was all still good. Ribs. Mmmmmmm. After dinner we headed over to Downtown Disney to spend a lot of money on souvenirs and to not drink because I was lucky to not be passing out from exhaustion.

Thursday… this isn’t getting any easier. Oh yes, Thursday we ran to the Animal Kingdom as quick as we could to knock out the important stuff. For me that meant nothing because I apparently have female reproductive organs. After that we went back to Downtown Disney to try and ride the speed boats. Chris was going to hook us up because that’s where he works but it was too damned hot to go out on the lake so we had lunch at Earl of Sandwich which I would recommend to anyone because it was cheap and really good, and then for the first time, got caught in the rain. It was pouring. But we got stuck in the best Disney store in town, World Of Disney so it gave us a chance to spend more money. Finally the rain stopped and we made it back to the hotel. I napped for like 2 hours because I was hurting, then Kristin and I ran to MGM to catch Fantasmic! which was probably the best show I saw down there.

Friday was our last day. So upsetting. We spent the whole day at the Magic Kingdom because that’s how it should be done. We had an early impromptu lunch at Tony’s Town Square. $100 lunches are great. This wasn’t the first of the week. We spent a little more time there before getting caught in the rain a 2nd time. This time though it was actually a pain. I can’t complain though, only getting screwed by the rain 1 time in Disney in August is impressive. We made it back, napped a little, then headed back to the MK for what is apparently the hardest reservation to make in Disney, Cinderella’s Royal Table for dinner. I had the Lamb. It was good. We justly finished the night with the Haunted Mansion, then watched the SpectroMagic show which I would probably skip in the future and then finally the biggest fireworks spectacular of them all, Wishes Nighttime Spectacular. After that, it was time to go to sleep for the last time in Disney.

Saturday was a depressing day. So we decided not to make it that way. We ate doughnuts for breakfast and went to MGM to use up our 7th Magic Our Way day. And ate a lot of junk food. For free. Ice cream cookie sandwiches and milk shakes. After that we went home. It stunk. The end.

And yes, the trip was as exhausting as this post was. I hope I covered everything; I’m sure it didn’t. But I do hope what I wrote is accurate. And I hope you didn’t read the whole thing. It was for me. I probably should have told you that in the beginning. I hope there aren’t a lot of typos in this. It’s too long and I don’t feel like checking it all that much. Don’t mind me, this post took like an hour over two days to write.

I can practically count the days til the draft and football season start on my hands. I can hardly contain myself. Every day is longer and every thought is turning to football. That means SportsTalk should be back in hardcore action. It also means it’s time for the NFL 2006 Expert Picks. You all got a week. 7 days. Figure em out and post them in this comment box. Next Monday I’m puttin it together. BREAK!

A week without work and fantasy baseball was even more relaxing than I could have ever imagined. I feel like a new person. More to come.

What I’m listening to: Silence

So I’m leaving in less than 24 hours so I started getting ready. What did I do first? Make sure my pitchers are ok for the next 9 days of course. What else would anyone do? Wait, let me rephrase that. I did my best to set my pitchers for the next 9 days. I won’t have any Internet access while I’m away. It’s probably a good thing though because I could definitely use a break from Fantasy Baseball. However, that means no new Terententen for 10 days for you guys. I hope you all make it. You can all talk amongst yourselves I guess. Hopefully this isn’t my last post before I go, but I wanted to give a heads up. I’ll be back Saturday the 26th. Don’t rush my good time folks. It’ll make me angry and I’ll have to punch you in the ovaries. Right in the babymaker.

Ok, there’s nothing wrong when someone chooses not to have sex. If they wanna wait, that’s fine by me; more power to you. However it IS sad that you’d have to ‘#5. Make a scrapbook.’ to force yourself from having sex. Or ‘#7. Have a potluck dinner. Assign a food category to each of your friends and set a date.’ Or how about if you just plain need to go to this website to abstain from having sex because just about every one of the things on the list is completely retarded. If you need a website to tell you to ‘#55. Take a nap.’ instead of having sex, you should probably just decide to have sex whenever you can because if you don’t, you might never EVER have sex. But if you do end up making the decision to hold off, you may as well go pick yourself up this l33t printable Pledge Card so you can throw it in your wallet and remind everyone you’re a retard every time you buy something. Sorry right wingers. Your kids are going to have sex. Don’t make them losers growing up so they end up shooting up a mall full of people because they got made fun of in school AND didn’t get laid on top of it.
