Okay, so I missed 2 days. One of those days nothing happened. No, really! I sat and watched Buffy allllllll day. Yesterday I booked a trip to Disney World.
No, you heard me correctly. I booked a trip to Disney World yesterday. Okay, okay. I didn't use my credit card. BUT I did do the actual booking. For December. Yes, this December. C'mon, what better way to celebrate the holidays than at the happiest place on earth!
Wheelchair is ordered, cat sitter confirmed, I called WDW today to iron out the details. Yes, I'm the person who accidentally sent in two reservations when I was playing around with the dates. I told her that yes, the one we started to pay for was the one we wanted to keep. I also requested a room close to the bus stop because of the wheelchair. Seriously, if I didn't use a wheelchair while there I would be beat after a day and a half. I was so tired the last time we went (and this is using a wheelchair), we came back to the room in the middle of the day to rest up before we went out again. I passed out in my underwear for an hour and a half. I'm the person who doesn't EVER nap. We're also going during the free dining promotion and during the 3rd least crowded week of the year. It will be nice to see the parks all dressed up for the holidays.
Also yesterday the Westboro Baptist Church (website: godhatesfags.com) had threatened to protest UML's production of the Laramie Project. Almost 100 students, faculty, staff, and friends showed up for a peaceful counter protest with witty and funny signs. People even stayed when it started to rain. I did not, I ran for cover for two reasons. 1) I refused to get sick from standing out in the pouring rain because 2) they never showed up. That's right - they. didn't. show. Apparently they've missed a lot of their protests lately and we weren't on the protest schedule on the offending website. It was great that they didn't show up but oddly disappointing as so many showed up in support.
The day we lost power I made out a check to one of my loan companies, sealed the envelope, and then lost it. The only good thing is I know it didn't leave the house because we didn't have any stamps. It's driving me nuts that it's gone. I even ended up rearranging the office looking for it. I made it look 100% better and we can actually get to the gym again. Because I'll be rocking a wheelchair for a week I need to get working on my arm and core muscles. Last time I did fine without them but I imagine it will be so much easier with them. Night, all! :)
