And Everything Comes Together.

Seems like everything is starting to work out in my favor, generally.  The first podcast has been recorded, of course, we have tickets on the way for Walt Disney World (8 Day Parkhoppers, bitchesssss!) and our Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party tickets.  All we have left to do now is get our dining plan.  We decided that this year, the DDP is probably gonna be best for us.  There's a lot of places we wanna check out, and the DDP is the most economical way to do it--this year, especially since we're moving to Sarasooootaaaaa!  :)

I've got Dethklok/Lamb of God tickets for my birtday, too, so I'm hoping everything works out for Randy Blythe.  I'm a little irritated at what's happening over in Prague with him right now--it's a total shakedown.

Back to Disney, I'm finally on twitter, so make sure you follow me @ThatDisneyBitch for a good time.  I'll be updating the blog later with all of our current dining reservations.  We have one left to make, and I haven't decided what I'm gonna do yet.

Didney Worl Trip News and Podcast News

I guess I'll start with the podcasting bit.  We finally recorded, so Samantha's supposed to be editing that shit up over the weekend, and hopefully it'll go live on Monday.  It'll be a pretty boring start I think, kind of an 'intro to us,' but we both thought it was something kind of important to do.

Anyway, everything for my trip is bought and paid for except my dining plan.  I got into it with Chris Wakefield about whether or not the dining plan is 'worth it,' and I know Leonard Kinsey has advised against it in his book The Dark Side of Disney, but honestly, I love food.  I'm going to Disney, eating at the fancy ass restaurants, and using all my snack credits at the food and wine festival.


I've pretty much decided that this year, the DDP is the best option for us, so we're gonna go with it.

Had to make some changes...

You'll all forgive me.  I'm taking an alias, removing my pictures, etc.  I want everything to be washed clean, as I'm getting ready to MOVE to Florida, and I wanna make sure that everything is kosher between the real me and the parks.  I haven't breathed a negative word about any of the parks (except Animal Kingdom, it still sucks) but I do say some bad words, and I don't want that tied to the real me.  Also, I don't want to endanger my job.

Breaks my heart to have to remove a lot of those pictures though, especially the one of me and Tron.  I mean Bruce Boxleitner.  Actually, haha, I meant Tron.  =p

More info to come!

WDW Lost Girls Podcast (Coming Soon!) and the Disney Parks app for iPhone

So for those of you following along, you'll likely know that a friend and I have been working on setting up a podcast.  Obviously, this podcast is going to be Disney flavored and very much intended for adults only.  Rated 'M' for 'Mature,' folks, and we mean it.

We start recording soon, and already have a few guests lined up, so stay tuned!  In the meantime, make sure you check out her blog (linked above) because she tends to be less emotional and far more informative than my crazy ass.

In other news, I've broken down.  I got an iPhone, after years of swearing I never would.  Why?  It was free.  My stepdad was helping me set up my own plan and bought the phone for me.  I can't really complain about that.  I'll always be a google-Droid fan in spirit, so maybe in two years when I get my upgrade.  My number has not changed, though, so if you've got it, shoot me a text!

I think, aside from Siri, my favorite feature might be the Disney Parks app.  I've been dying to try this thing out for ages, and it's pretty cool even outside the parks.  It shows me the hours of operation for all of the parks in WDW and DLR, and even tells me what parade and showtimes are.  In the parks, it's supposed to give me total ride wait time and Fastpass information, so I'll be able to review that in more detail here in a couple months.

Finally, It looks like I may be in Colorado for another month, watching the wildfires rage on.  My mother is paying me for helping out around here, so I don't mind doing it too much (though I'm reaching an incredible level of exhaustion--I may just have to take a week-long coma when I get home) but it'll give me some time to make sure the podcast is ready to roll with Kristi, and maybe even make a few more appearances like....

WDW DIS-Cussion!

I made an appearance on their most recent show, so check me out!  I'd like to thank Ryan, Brandon and Chris so much for the opportunity.


I appeared alongside Derek Burgan, so make sure you listen to all the plugs and check us out.  The topic of discussion was what to do in WDW after the sun goes down, but we derailed quite a few times into other topics of discussion, including whether or not WDW bus drivers should ever be believed.  Very hilarious.

Till next time--which should be soon!

"World War D"

The Disney Turf War is back, and with a vengeance.

I've been without internet for a few days now.  As most people I've ever come in contact with know, I've been with my family and we've been in the process of a rather large move.  Unfortunately for me, this meant zero internet (minus my crappy phone).

In my absence, it appears that my facebook friends have come in contact with one another, and they fucking hate each other.  Or maybe it's not hate so much as taking words said the wrong way, and unleashing a shit storm over DISNEY PARKS.  It makes me wonder if these people have any idea what they sound like to outsiders.  The worst part is that they expect me to get involved.  Everyone wants me to rush to their defense, which is blowing my mind because I am no one's attack dog, no one's personal army.

Meanwhile, I have other people alongside me scratching their heads and wondering what the hell is going on and why this is even happening.  Well fuck you guys, you're all gonna catch it here when I'm on the WDW Kingdomcast.


Speaking of Podcasts, the WDW Lost Girls Podcast is coming soon!  Make sure you check out the sister blog, No Dancing on the Monorail.   Kristi and I will be your permanent hosts, and we look forward to hearing your feedback!

Just Met Cindy Morgan and Bruce Boxleitner

And I'm one happy Disney Bitch.


(EDIT: Picture has been baleeted for privacy purposes.  I hated having to do this, but with the upcoming Podcast and my group of friends and everything, I don't want to flub anything up with Disney.)

Bruce is my guy.  Always was, always will be!  He's such a sweetie too, dealt with my stuttering and fumbling over my hands...I'm a little embarrassed of myself but I think I did rather well.  I didn't burst into tears of joy and completely mortify myself.

Cindy Morgan is an absolute BABE, too.  She's gorgeous, funny, kind, smart...Yori is by FAR my favorite Disney Princess.  ;)  I can't believe how wonderful she is, and I can't wait to read her book!  May even get to do an interview with her for this blog!

The image Aimee drew was beautiful--Cindy and Bruce loved their copies.  I'll get a scanned image of the signed picture for this blog soon.

Also just found out Michael Bay's 'Ninja Turtles' has been canned.

TODAY IS A GOOD DAY FOR (WO)MANKIND.

EDIT: Patrick the Bartender here at Embassy Suites is back for the Manager's Reception.  Drinking his custom drink, and it's fabulous.  TODAY IS A GOOD DAY.

Walt Disney on What's My Line

I don't have a whole lot to say today as nothing has really happened.  I do, however, want to keep the blog going strong, so here's a cute little video of Grampa Walt on a gameshow!  Whee!
