You know you're a WDW not when....
you're thinking about how to spend a holiday - any holiday - and the first thought that pops in your head is to spend that holiday at a WDW theme-park.
And if you have actually spent a holiday at WDW theme-park, then you can't deny you're a WDW nut.

I have arrived at Disney for July 4th and it was a blast. This past time we got there the day before and were able to catch some of the specials the day before and the day of. It is truly one of the most amazing and memorable experiences.

I've been there for Christmas, Mother's Day, Memorial Day, Labor Day, and on Birthdays (mine and my families). Not yet on July 4th (is the week after close enough?) and not on Halloween. At least it gives me goals.

EPCOT brings out the Armageddon barge, when it fire off it's fireworks it goes down 3 feet into the water. The 4 of July and New Years eve are the only days Disney brings it out.

You know you're a WDW not when....
...you decorate your house for Halloween or Christmas, and somehow, whether its big or small, it involves Disney...
...and if you intentionally plant "hidden mickeys" amongst the decorations, then you can't deny you're a WDW nut!!

Ah yes, a good portion of our Christmas tree ormaments are the Mouse and we have other decoratons as well. An awesome door wreath, door mat and my beloved door knob hang, it's a Mickey Mouse snowman!!!!

If you're going to decorate for the holidays, why not involve the Mouse?!

When your sitting at your computer desk in the living room and you can count well over 150 Disney related items without leaving your chair.

You know you're a Disney nut when friends and family ask you to plan their Disney trips for them.
It's bittersweet for me. I love planning Disney trips for my friends and family...but it's sad knowing I won't be going with them.

Ditto on that. But it's always fun when they get back all excited and say, "wow, we couldn't have done it without you! We had so much fun thanks to all your planning and inside tips." That makes it worthwhile for us.
Oh, and Jacca: I can't top that either.... from my living room chair. Now if I go upstairs, on the other hand.....

...somewhere in your car you keep a Disney theme-park momento.
And if its visible for everyone to see, then you're a die-hard WDW nut.

When every Halloween costume has some sort of Disney theme to it....
When you carve Disney characters into pumpkins every year...

When it's not enough for you to see and call out Hidden Mickey's everywhere you go in your day-to-day life, but now you feel compelled to go around CREATING them (yes, I've sunk to that level.... *sob, sniffle*).
Rest assured, though, that I don't do vandalism. Only fun, non-damaging Mickeys...

I painted my girlfriend's classroom to look like it was under the sea...with bubbles and everything. Well...I had to leave a Hidden Mickey in there using bubbles. Love it!
