Life Lessons from Disney

* Sometimes karma kicks you in the butt.
For example, I wouldn't recommend proclaiming to the world that you despise any bed smaller than a king. Because you just might go away with your husband one weekend, and walk into your hotel room, and see this:





* Sometimes in life, it's acceptable to lie.
For example, if your super friendly server who seems to have really taken a liking to you and your husband asks "Is today your anniversary?" I would recommend to just lie and say "Why, yes! Yes, it is! How did you know?"

Because she just might come back to your table with this:







* Sometimes I like to make rides more fun for other people.

For example, we boarded the Splash Mountain ride. McDaddy and I were in the front row. The rest of our boat was filled with Disney fanatics that I had been quietly observing while we were all in line. And when I saw them putting on their ponchos before we boarded the boat, I knew what must be done:



I was all: "This ride doesn't have any big drops, does it? Why are you guys wearing ponchos?" ...you know, just to mess with them.


And they are all: "Hee hee!! Have you never been on this ride before?"


And I'm all "No! I'm scared!"


Which made them positively giddy with excitement.
Because there is nothing a Disney fanatic loves more than being a know-it-all about the ride.

And then afterwards, they are all "Did you like it? Did ya? Were you scared with the big drop? You didn't know that was even coming, did you? HA!! I knew it was coming and I was watching your face and you looked SO FREAKED OUT!!! ha ha ha ha!!"


And while I'm all "You guys didn't tell me about that drop! You totally got me!" and I'm watching the smug expression on their faces.....inside I'm giddy with excitement because one Disney fanatic just trumped another Disney fanatic. I guess that makes me a Disney superfanatic. Or superfreak. Whatever.



* The Lightening shirt......we have a winner! I am sending this shirt onto POW participant #77....CaraDee's Boring Adventures!!





*Sometimes when you hold a t-shirt up in front of you and you are wearing shorts, it looks like you aren't wearing anything at all.
Which is just provocative and wrong to do in front of Cinderella's castle. But oddly enough, your husband doesn't tell you it looks provocative and wrong.
He just snaps the pic and is all "Ok, done. Can we go to Space Mountain now?"
And you are clueless to the provocative and wrongness of it all.....until you get home and download your pics.
