Mouseoholic likes to buy new outfits for every trip so that when she's sorting through her pictures later she can tell which trip it was by the outfits she's wearing (amongst other reasons... *cough*
shopoholic *cough*). So she starts her Disney shopping months in advance, and as she buys outfits she packs them as soon as she gets home so she won't be tempted to wear them elsewhere.

She also starts collecting together miscellaneous other things we're going to need and putting them in the suitcases with the clothes, just to make sure we'll have everything. It adds to the anticipation to see the suitcases lying there partially packed 2 or 3 months in advance....

I always thought her name was
Mouseoholic, not
shopoholic! Man, she is dedicated and organized. I used to be that way...sigh. Well, not about clothes but other important aspects of life. I hope she keeps the lids on the suitcases closed, otherwise you will have to dust your vacation clothing before you actually leave

Not dust.... cat hair! Our two cats love the "conquer" the suitcases and perch on top like lionesses on their lookout posts. Mouseoholic hates it when she forgets to close the lid....

Better check twice before leaving. If the suitcase is meowing you might have a stowaway

You joke about that...but I had read in the newspaper once somebody had packed their luggage and went on a business trip completely unaware that the family kitten had stowed away amongst the clothes. The kitten miraculously survived the trip in the luggage through the airport baggage system!

That was one tough kitty - and cute as the dickens too.

LOVE Disney races! We've run 3 of them, would love to do more. They usually don't work with my work schedule and vacation time.

Good luck to you!
You know you're a WDW nut when....someone in the next subdivision over is burning leaves, the aroma comes through your window and you say "Rome is burning!"

When you are volunteering in a hospital and make sure to stop and complement everyone's Disney items.

When you know that there are 11,342 triangles on the EPCOT Ball and correct people when they call it a ball and tell them it is the worlds only above ground geodesic sphere.

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.”

Good. I despise external speakers.
