The day after...

We came. We saw. We kicked Mickey's ass!

[livejournal.com profile] samkicksass and I have decided that we really need to do a Disneyland meet-up with anyone that wants to go. Maybe some weekend later this spring (after Spring Break)? This fall?

Had a blast! Got hit on by a couple of guys on the monorail. That was *before* we started with the inside jokes and laughing hysterically. Something about "reuse, recycle, ...something" and "tuck and roll!" They left at Downtown Disney. :D Then there was the political debate that Anna got into with a drunk guy while standing in line for the Haunted Mansion. Ah...good times!

SO much fun even if there were a few big rides down and despite Toontown freaking Anna out. And Small World. I *made* her go on that. Let's just say there was mad running towards the train station afterwards to get away from the song.

Throughout the day, we kept overhearing things that cracked us up and decided to make a list.
  • "Well, Stargate is *near* Earth..."
    Announced by a Disney cast member over a microphone as she was giving an internet demonstration, Anna and I having hijacked one of the machines to try and check LJ. Damn. We didn't even see her sneak up behind us.

  • "SHIT!!"
    Anna upon discovering that we were walking down the middle of a parade route. Thought those spotlights looked bright.

  • "Just because your brother did it doesn't mean it's right."
    Random mother trying to logic with her 4-year-old.

  • "Okay, that's freaking me out."
    "I was just about to say that."
    Me and Anna watching the singing flowers in the Tiki Room.

  • "Yeah, that's nice. Just leave."
    Hilarious Jungle Cruise guide at the end when everyone on the boat clapped for him.

  • "That swan's butt exploded!"
    Me. Well, it was a *very* deformed topiary.

  • "May the force be with you."
    "Because I won't."
    Disney cast member and some random kid behind us on the Star Tours ride.

  • "We're observing the giant wet ball."
    Random person announcing this to others in her party. This was our running joke throughout the day, for we are both 13.
I am pretty tired right now. Got in around 1:30 and am going out in a bit. But it was *so* worth any tiredness! So start thinking about meeting us at Disneyland sometime this year!

So jealous!

Sounds like you had a very good time! I am now officially very jealous of you :)

Hey hey hey, I'll be in LA

[personal profile] professor_mirror 2004-02-16 05:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm going to be in LA for Wizard World LA, a big comics convention March 19-21. Plus I'm staying two extra days because I'm on Spring Break.

Oooo! We weren't thinking of doing it that soon, but if enough people wanted to, I'd be game! Of course, for both Anna and myself we'd have to go on either a Saturday or a Sunday since we both work during the week.

Do it! Do it! Come on! I'd buy your Disneyland ticket!

[identity profile] jemster.livejournal.com 2004-02-16 08:28 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm *so* there! My Spring Break isn't until March 15-19, but I could probably get a couple vacation days if enough people wanted to go around that time (I work weekends).

Probably sometime in the late spring or fall would work for me better.

[identity profile] nhawk.livejournal.com 2004-02-16 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Glad you had a great *cough*crazy*cough* time! I'm thinking of selling my soul to come out there and go to Disneyland with you guys. :)

Okay, so um... that's the one in Anaheim, right? Hey, I'm still a foreigner *g*

Make it a weekend and I might be able to manage that. Spring is hectic though... bike races, concerts, trips away for just the two of us... but fall looks empty so far.

[identity profile] mrv3000.livejournal.com 2004-02-17 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
Oh cool!!

You know, the more I think about it, the more I'm realizing that it *shouldn't* be during Spring Break. Yes, it's open longer hours, but the park is just packed.

Re:

[identity profile] mrv3000.livejournal.com 2004-02-17 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
It is Anaheim! And it would have to be a weekend.

Still trying to get a feel if spring or fall would be better. I'm now thinking more towards fall just because of the whole Spring Break thing... Hmm.

[identity profile] jemster.livejournal.com 2004-02-17 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
That's probably for the best. When's the off-season for DisneyLand anyway?

Re:

[identity profile] mrv3000.livejournal.com 2004-02-17 03:04 am (UTC)(link)
Off-season is now through Spring Break. Then after school starts in the fall through Thanksgiving. Then the first two weeks in December. Actually, I think the most fun time to go is during those first weeks in December. The park is all decorated for Christmas. But December is a hectic month for most everyone. :-\

[identity profile] jemster.livejournal.com 2004-02-17 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
The first week in December sounds good, but so does November. *sigh*

Re:

[identity profile] mrv3000.livejournal.com 2004-02-17 05:11 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm. I'm not sure how it'd be best to figure out a date. I think the more people who could come the better! Of course, even if it was just Anna and me, we'd still have fun. :D

Do it!!! :)

[identity profile] poohmusings.livejournal.com 2004-02-17 06:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Oooh! OOOH! I wanna go! I wanna see Mickey and Pooh and Eeyore and the Haunted House and the Indiana Jones ride and ...

Oh, seeing you and Anna would be cool too. ;)

Sometime in the fall? How about the fall?

Re:

[identity profile] matt1969.livejournal.com 2004-02-22 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Spring Break? Oh gawd, if it's bad here in Havasu I can only imagine what Disney might be like *g*

Yeah, fall definitely sounds better!

Ooo! That'd be a kick to meet up with a bunch of LJ peeps at Disneyland this fall!
