I’m going to Disneyworld!
Yep, the Mister and I are departing this world for the magical land of politcally incorrect rides, cotton-candy princesses and anthropomorphic animals. I mean, really, what better way is there to inaugurate the year of 3’s than spending it in an orgy of rollercoaster-riding, Mickey-stalking-sighting, and general juvenalia?
All of the pieces just fit into place: Mr. X had two free roundtrip tickets on Southwest thanks to all of his travel for work so we are flying for all of $10 (damn you, security fee!). He also has a free car rental weekend, so free car for two days! And, can I tell you what a deal we got on the hotel? It pays to have your birthday land in the off-off season at the Most Magical Place on Earth. It was as if Mickey was saying, “I dare you not to do this!”
I could not say no to the mouse. I could not say no to my overwhelming glee at the idea of Mr. X and I frolicking through Epcot. And, hell, it’s my birthday. I can do whatever I want.
So, as you read this, I am either on the plane already or we have landed in Orlando and are making a beeline for “It’s a Small World”. Either way, we have big plans and typing on a computer for four days is not one of them! Au revoir !
ps: No need to thank me for putting that damn ear bug “When you wish upon a star” in your head. Your look of agony is thanks enough.

Happy Birthday and I hope your trip is fantastic!!!!
I’m so jealous. I’ve been hinting I want to go to Orlando for a while. Maybe I just need to get proactive and do some research as to how we can do it on the (mostly) cheap!
Hope you have/had a fantastic time at the parks and in the hotel room. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge…
happy birthday, mrs. x! enjoy the mouse!
we are disneyworld addicts in this house (we even have a timeshare through disney). The reason I love it there is basic, it’s a place to be a kid and shut out the real world.
Have a magical time. lol.
Oh, how fun! Good for you guys – hope it’s a blast!
While I’d love to hear how the trip is going (I love Disney!), I hope you don’t read this until you return home after having a wonderful time!!!
bon voyage mrs. x!!!!!
i think that disney is the best place to distract yourself from all things IF!
Happy Birthday Mrs.X ! hope you have a great one
Happy Birthday!!! I hope you guys have a great time. I’m jealous of your “practically free” vacation!!
I only wish it was “When You Wish Upon a Star”… somehow “It’s a Small World” has now lodged itself into my brain… eeek! Thanks, Mrs. X! ; ) lol Happy, happy birthday — I hope you have a fabulous time!!
Oh wow, have fun!
Have a great time! Don’t forget, you can get a free park ticket on your birthday, too.
A very happy birthday & many returns of the day to you! And I hope you get a big pair of Minnie Mouse ears with your name on the back!
Well, as a fellow Jan 30, 76 infertile (really, how cool is THAT?) I hope you are having (had if you’re already home) time in Disney.
Happy birthday, Mrs X! Have a wonderful trip!
I agree with Loribeth…It’s a Small World is far worse than When You Wish Upon a Star (probably because I know all the words to It’s a Small World). But thanks for both.
Hope you’re having a Hot Dog day (yep, I’ve been watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse!).
Have fun!
I hope you have the most incredible birthday of all time!!!!! Despite that pesky mouse!
