Thanks Glo! I've been back for a day or so but it seems like all of the small things I've been procrastinating are now urgent and I haven't been around.

Re: Life can be lonely when you're single
I will try to post some on FB later :) We didn't go crazy with the camera, in fact most of our photos are of him or me, rarely together! We had an amazing time. It was especially special because FH has always disliked Disney. Until this past Spring, he has never gone on rides and he got dragged up until when he was 15 and he'd sit on the bench and complain. All of a sudden he LOVES Disney. Probably because he was able to see things through my eyes and he's like 'I can't wait to go back! This is the best vacation of my entire life! I had so much fun! We HAVE to take our kids here!' lol he's like a little kiddo so it was really nice for him to finally see why I loved working for them.
The trip was wonderful and we were treated really, really well. We got quite a bit of VIP treatment, which I expected even though it's unnecessary just because Disney cast members are like a gang in that they take care of their own. If I say we waited on one line for 30 minutes over 4 days it isn't exaggerating. We really didn't wait at all for anything and we got special seating pretty much everywhere. It seemed I couldn't go ten feet without running into someone that I knew. I was bad and I even took FH backstage a few times.
I think the coolest thing for me was that we were able to get photos after fireworks with just us in front of the castle before they dropped the ropes and let everyone else through so that was kinda cool. That & the Build-a-Bear I made on my bday, I LOVE build a bear but we have too many 'friends' at our house already! I dressed him as Peter Pan lol
Fh's favorite thing was eating with the characters. LOL he asked me on Sunday night if I wanted to go to any of the 5 stars or anything for my birthday and I said no but there's this breakfast where I really love the eggs benedict. I guess I FAILED to mention that it was a character breakfast and he didn't know anything like that existed. I jsut don't think in terms of fuzzies walking around as being a big deal. I knew the character manager who happened to be there and he made sure that they all came over and some messed with us but he sat down to eat and Rafiki pushed him out of the way and stole his plate. Then Koda from Brother Bear stole our ketchup bottle and he thought I planned it. He was like 'there are people starving in NY and we're having breakfast with chip & dale.' he thought it was ridiculous but he loved it so much that I took him to Goofy's kitchen where we danced with the characters when they called all the kids up & he says character dining was his favorite thing!
Sorry for the lengthy response but I know your history with Disney and that you'd appreciate all the craziness since you became a Disney Parks fanatic later in life also!
