My 5 day WDW Vaca with a 24 year old

I've been sick for almost 23 years. To celebrate, I went with a 24 year old to Disney. 

Nats-Nao-Nicole-Naomi-Natalie 

Canova Beach 10-5 3am

We mostly had a good time. It went by quickly. 

We stayed at the Allstar Resort for 3 nights, followed by one night at the beach. 

We visited all 4 parks. Major attractions missed included the big 4 at EPCOT: Spaceship Earth, Soarin, Test Track and Mission Space. 

The girl was sick for an entire day in the middle of the trip. Second trip with her, second time sick. It impacted touring plans significantly. 

Girl particularly liked Delmonicos and the DHS duo of Rock n Roller Coaster and Tower of Terror. She also liked Expedition Everest, Kilimanjaro Safari, she got a Ariel shirt, plus two shirts as a gift at the AK (including a giraffe shirt) and she got into pin collecting at the end. 

The Food and wine festival was fun, but maybe less of a hit than expected. She did not think much of the lobster roll. 

Went to the Orlando Eye. Ate in Morocco & at Cinderella's Royal Table. Morocco ended up being a bit of a fiasco b/c it rained and destroyed the girls make up between the park gates and the restaurant. The service there was subpar, they would not serve her alcohol, and I ended up not getting anything. She had something with feast in the title, but she didn't care for many of the items. 

Missed reservations at Donald's Safari lunch in AK and Lunch at Coral Reef Restaurant at EPCOT. Other misses included Boston Lobster Feast and Shake Shack (both on I-Drive). Giordano's was NOT a hit. We almost went to Cirque du Soileil. Almost. 

Almost 23 years. I thought I was going to let the end come. On my terms. But then the girl decided to come back. This month! So I had to medicate. Head and body. But I wait for the beginning of the end. Soon enough. 

It was almost a conflict free month


Except that it is the most painful time of the year for me. So how could it be conflict free. The afterglow of a fun vacation extended for exactly two weeks. 

I nearly forewent the treatment. I would like an ending. 23 years is too long. 

The girl, she was funny yest eve for a few min and even funnier tonight. I'm just tired. I was hopeful. But I was wrong. Again. 

Funny thing about that. How can I be so wrong. All the time?

I am nobody's answer. I am the bane of my own existence. It is time for an ending. Soon.
