TRIP REPORT TIIIIIIIIIIME. I’m talking about this trip! ‘K, so, before I start, I want to note that I will be glossing over the food experiences. Don’t worry – after the trip report is all done I’ll be doing a food post. Maybe a couple! This trip report starts with me waking up at 2AM, because I am completely...

In the immortal words of Marvin the Paranoid Android: Oh GOD I’m so depressed. In other words, I flew home from Walt Disney World on Sunday, and now I’m falling into the tired, inevitable old cliche: constantly thinking things like “Yesterday at this time, I was eating breakfast with Tigger.” “Yesterday at this time I was walking past Spaceship...
