I'm bored and I need a new journal. I stole this from Kataang15Love. Not sure where she stole it from.

1. Favorite Disney movie?
Aladdin.
Beauty and the Beast and Tangled are a close second and third.
Wall-E is my favorite if Pixar is included.

2. Favorite Disney song?
The Spectromagic theme.
From a Disney movie: The Bells of Notre Dame.
My favorite to sing out loud is He's a Tramp.

3. Have I been to the Disney parks before?
No, never.
Obvious I've been to WDW many times. I worked there for three years! I have not been to the other parks, though I really want to.

4. Favorite prince?
Ooh difficult one. Can I go with David/Charming from Once Upon a Time? For the cartoons I'd go with Philip.

5. Favorite park ride to be on after-dark?
Big Thunder. It is so awesome at night.

6. Mickey premium ice-cream bars or churros?
Chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich from Sleepy Hollow.

7. Favorite land in the parks?
Sunset Boulevard.

8. Favorite sidekick in a Disney film?
Maximus! God I love that horse.
Also Dug if Pixar is included. <da:thumb id="148741947"/>

9. If I could be in a live-action version of any Disney film, which one would it be and who would I play (regardless of things like appearance/singing ability)?
Maleficent.
I look just like Merryweather, though. It would be as if Merryweather had gone over to the dark side.

10. Favorite character to interact with in the parks?
I'm not really into character meet and greets, although if I find any character with no line I run up for some photos. I miss the Figment meet and greet.

11. Do I collect Disney pins?
I pick up the ones I really like. I've never traded, although I have some I'd be willing to trade if I found better ones!

12. What park ride do I have a love/hate relationship with?
I loathe the Tomorrowland Speedway. Colossal waste of space in my opinion. I can't believe they ripped up ToonTown and left that land hogging monstrosity. Ugh.

13. Favorite Disney love-song?
I know you, I danced with you once upon a dream. I know you, the gleam in your eye is so familiar a gleam. And I know it's true that visions are seldom what they seem...

14.Favorite non-animated Disney movie?
The Avengers was pretty freaking awesome. I've seen Who Framed Roger Rabbit about a zillion times.
Also the original TRON and PotC III.

15. Do I own any Mickey ears? If so, what kind?
I do. My friends bought me a classic Mickey ears with my name on the back when I left WDW and went back to grad school.

16. A park ride I've never been on?
I try to make a point of riding every single ride. Last trip due to technical difficulties we never got to ride Toy Story Mania, so I'll go with that.

17. Favorite Phil Collins Disney song? (Legitimate question!)
Strangers Like Me. Definitely.
Phil has better songs, though. There's a soft spot in my heart for Phil.

19. Favorite Disney renaissance movie?
Aladdin.

20. Favorite Disney/Pixar movie?
WALL-E, by far. I can watch it over and over and over. Brave also seriously rocked. Oh yeah.

21. Favorite in-park restaurant?
I used to love Restaurant Akershus but then they turned it into a Princess character meal and it costs a zillion bucks to eat there. So I'll go with Mama Melrose. Sunshine seasons has the best counter service.
Cape May is my favorite at WDW.

22. Have I ever stayed in a Disney hotel?
Yep. The Wilderness Lodge, All Star Music, Port Orleans Riverside and French Quarter, Pop Century.

23. Favorite in-park snack?
Chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich from Sleepy Hollow.
Deja vu!
Frozen Orange Bars at the AK.

24. Favorite Winnie the Pooh character?
Tigger!

25. Favorite classic character (Mickey, Donald, Goofy, etc.,)?
Goofy is my favorite from the Fab Five. I especially loved Goof Troop, seeing his relationship with Max. And Goofy's shorts are the best. That Goofy, he's a genius!


So that's all the questions. I want more questions. Got any Disney questions for me?

Also, does anyone play Tap Zoo or Pet Shop on their phone or tablet? I need some friends to unlock stuff.

Life has been hectic and I have not had much time to get pictures posted. However, I did have three weeks with no internet that allowed me tons of times to process photos, so now I have over 700 pictures waiting in my stash.  Since I have no idea when they will be loaded I will post the links here. You can use whatever you like. Some day they will end up in my gallery, I swear!

It just may be next year.

So here are the links:

Also, as an FYI, I am in the process of moving any picture with a character in it over to the equivalent photography galleries. You can still use any photo in my gallery but because I do not own the copyright to those characters, I shouldn't really have them offered as stock. They will be updated with a disclaimer that they are for reference or non-commercial work only.

I hope everyone is well. Here's to a busy and exciting autumn. I hope it cools down!

Happy New Year!

The neighborhood is echoing with fireworks and firecrackers.  And guns.  People get a bit looney on New Year's around here.

I usually don't do resolutions but I will admit I have a small goal of being more active and post more here!  I haven't posted anything since October. I'm a bad girl.   

Life has been the proverbial roller coaster for me these last few months.  Currently things are on the up so I hope they last through 2012. I hope everyone has a great year, too.

I do hope we can get down to WDW this year.  It's now been three years.  I still have tons of photos I can post, though.   People often think I must live in Florida but I'm actually up in Ohio.  Times have been rough but if I play my cards right this year I may be able to get back down.  Wish me luck!
