when you wish upon a star...

things are crazy around here. it always gets a little hectic around the end of a contract; things like packing [i have to fit all of that in this bag??] and shipping bicycles home during the holiday mailing rush, etc. on top of that we've been gearing up [the crew strings up lights, and i make stew for 120 people] for the hallowed x-mas boat parade. can i get a "whoo hoo" [picture a little circular wave of the finger]. but what am i doing going on and on about blah blah blah holiday madness which nearly everyone has their fingers in. i promised news of the land o' disney! after twelve hours of wandering, sixteen rides, and three over priced meals, all i can say is- what's with the bad head wear?? something about that place compels otherwise well adjusted adult individuals to don stupid hats or headbands topped with the ears from one fictional animal or another. as a visual bonus, this time of year they are frequently accompanied by a santa hat. awwwwh. as you can tell i am overcome with emotions about my disney adventure, so i naturally did what any emotionally overcome person would do; i wrote poetry. here are five haikus to tell you of my journey through the wonderful world of disney.

it is disneyland
the "happiest place on earth"
chaos is not joy

a so-cal castle
movies and books come to life
to hug small children

mr. toads wild ride
i got to drive into hell
wonderland was rad

fat wheelchair ladies
a million kids got me sick
thank god it was free

splash mountain times two
indiana jones is hot
total mouse madness

*stay tuned for what i'm anticipating to be many more posts [and maybe even some pictures!] when i return to p-town in nine days. my parents have wireless, it's free and open all night. yee haw!
