2 more wake-ups!

almost everyday this last week, my dad has texted me the amount of days we have until our big fam-damily vacation to disneyland! and now we--us in idaho--only have 2 more wake-ups until we leave, and poor nana and papa have to wait until thursday!

and i know for a fact that nana and papa are more excited than we are! they keep telling me that they are too excited to sleep... just like the kids (and parents) in the commercial! i have had to tell them that they need to rest up and be ready for keeping up with the boys... but i can see the kid return to my daddy's face as he says, "but i'm too excited!!" none of us are going to be able to keep up with these guys, because they GO until they STOP (wow, i sound as profound as yogi berra!), and i have a feeling this trip isn't going to be as relaxing as my trip to D.C. last year when i went senza familia; but, its going to be infinitely more fun!

and as time gets nearer, i start to get a little giddy myself! it's consuming my thoughts; for example, i should be taking a quiz over chapters 1-4 in introduction to modern information retrieval by chowdhury... and here i sit thinking if they have good chowder somewhere in anaheim. hmmm... have i mentioned how much i'm loathing grad school?

so if you have any good tips for the park, send them my way. it's been awhile since i've been there. actually, i was last there when i was 16... go ahead, do the math : ) so it's going to be a new experience for all of us... oh, now i won't be able to sleep either... i'm too excited!
