Under the Sea


"Under the sea, under the sea..."

 

Yes, as I get towards the end of the challenge, I am having a hard time coming up with topics. Some letters are just so difficult. I guess I could write about unicorns but that wouldn't give me the opportunity to tell you about my Disney addiction.

I may have mentioned it before, but I really love Disney, Thankfully, I'm not alone in my obsession; my husband, kids, sister, in-laws, etc. all share in this crazy fixation.

We eagerly wait for the next animated movie to come out, YouTube the soundtrack as soon as we get home, and memorize every song and trailer before the DVD is released.

We are the people who order the vacation planning video every year and start the countdown to the next vacation two days after we leave the parks. And most of us agree that if we ever win the lottery, our first purchase will be a massive Disney trip for our entire family (it would take a pretty big jackpot to pay for it, believe me we’ve got the figures down). If this isn’t bad enough for you, just wait; it gets worse.

We speak in movie quotes and burst out into song at the strangest moments. Like today, while riding home from a ball game we all started talking about how hungry we were. This leads to everyone listing what little they’ve eaten today. I said I had a sandwich for lunch, which prompted my oldest daughter to start singing a song from the movie “Frozen.” Instead of rolling my eyes at the goofy kid, I start singing with her and we’re soon joined by the others.

And this is totally normal behavior for us….

Be afraid, be very afraid…
