Finds at the local thrift stores, or sticky fingers? ;)

Mostly taking costumes home without the costuming CM taking the hanger(s) back. Universal on the other hand gave them to me. For some reason, they throw away hangers that have the paper coverings and some of the costuming people for HHN let me take a bunch.

And life's a little weird,
And when we find someone whose
Weirdness is compatible with ours,
We join up with them and fall in
Mutual weirdness and call it Love.”

Are they fancy in any way, or just plain old wire hangers?

Nothing special about them. Just regular wire hangers.

When you look at your Christmas tree and realize that the ornaments you bought at Disney World are outnumbering the ones from Hallmark. I like pointing to each one and thinking: I got this one on ___ trip when we stayed at ______.

Someone may have said this already...

But you know you are a WDW nut when...you are watching the Disney Parks Christmas Day Parade and you notice that they used footage of the Little Mermaid ride at DLR when talking about New Fantasyland in WDW. They showed the "Dole Whip" hair Ariel from the ride...which we all know did not make it in the Florida version. If you have the parade...go back and watch it and you'll see.

When you see them advertise for the parks in the parade and see California's Mad Tea Party in a WDW commercial.

When you walk through the mall and think the music sounds like what you hear when walking around World Showcase.

It's almost as bad as the original Monorail en Espanol t-shirt that had WDW on it...with Sleeping Beauty Castle in the background. :x
