There are people on the net that
have nothing better to do with their time then be nasty to other
people online. They post rude comments, spend hours a day talking
about sites they hate so much, that they well, spend hours a day
talking about them. (lame) They mock the owners and posters for
their opinions and their right to free speech. They expect everyone
to fit into their narrow-minded little world view or else they throw
a temper tantrum.
To these people I say
grow up.
Here's a bit of info people...the
web is a HUGE place. If you don't like what I say here, or who I am,
or what I do, or talk about, or what I look like, or the color of my
hair, or whatever asinine thing you dwell on, go somewhere else.
It's really, really easy. Honest. You just click the little "x" in
the corner of your browser and *poof* the offending, big, mean and
nasty site has disappeared.
I pay for this site. It's mine.
That means I can use it for whatever the hell I want to. Don't like
it if I'm bitching about something in my life? Oh fucking well. Go
somewhere else. Think I'm stupid for expressing my thoughts? Too
fucking bad, don't read them. Somewhere along the line, someone
forgot this simple fact: Live and let live Don't like me,
cool, fine, whatever, I don't care. This journal is NOT for
you. It's for me. I'm not in it for popularity or fame or anything
stupid like that. I write it because I need to write and express
myself and get things out of my head sometimes. So read or don't, it
doesn't matter, but don't waste my time (or yours) bitching about
it.

A Word About Walt Disney World Not that I owe asshole, drive-by trolls anything, but I wanted to clear something up. When I go out to Disney, I'm not spending money. It's not like I'm dropping $70 a person each time I'm out there. Disney is expensive to go for one day, but it's not to go in multi-day or annual pass blocks.
Last May, my birthday present was a discounted, Florida-resident only ticket that gave us three days for the price of two. Over the next five weeks or so, I had earned money through surveys, commissions, and through jewelry sales and found myself with a little extra. We discussed it and decided to take advantage of the opportunity and upgrade the three-day tickets to another Florida-resident only type of ticket called a Seasonal Annual Pass. The money I spent on the three-day ticket was applied and for the price of basically three normal days, we now had almost a year of unlimited visits. So, for the cost of one more day's ticket, we now had annual passes.
Florida resident Seasonal Annual Passes give you unlimited visits for one year excluding certain, peak blackout periods. (A couple months in summer; two weeks at xmas/New Year's; and a couple weeks at Spring Break.) It basically gives you about nine months total access to any of the four parks. (Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Disney-MGM Studios, and Animal Kingdom) You can go to any park and hop from one park to another in the same day as many times as you want.
Love and I haven't been on a vacation in over seven years. We only go out for the day when we go to Disney because we can't afford to get a hotel room and stay over. It doesn't cost us any admission to go and the only thing we spend is for lunch and a couple sodas. It's a cheap day, despite sounding like a pricey expense. Being so close gives us a luxury that most people don't have and since it's the only type of "getaway" we can afford, we make use of it as much as possible.
Our passes will expire May 20th of this year. And odds are, there won't be anyway for us to renew them. (Even though you save like $40/person if you renew instead of buying a new pass.) The relatively minor investment last year (broken into two payments and one part being my birthday present) has more then paid for itself. You'd spend a lot more on a tradition vacation like a couple night's stay in a hotel or one plane ticket. Since we can't do either, this is the next best thing for us.
Anyway, that's all I'm going to say about that. Without my AP, I'd never get to go and it was a lucky set of circumstances that made it possible for us to get them this past year. (For the record, the last time we were able to get a Seasonal AP was in 2002-2003.) It's one of the few pleasures in life and I'm going to sorely miss it when it expires.
