Thanks for getting through it.  That one sort of got away from me.  (I keep up that level of unspellchecked purple, and Mike's gonna cut my pay, I'm sure of it.)

We went to the land of the mouse when I was seven or eight.  I remember being excited about space mountain (being both into space and cool rides), and the ride was, in fact, kind of fun, as was that other roller coaster they had.  I liked the visit, but not more than sea world or the couple of cut-rate places we stopped on the drive down.  (Yup, drive.  Really should write about that someday.)  Went again when I was about 14.  Visiting grandma for a week with my brother, with not a lot to otherwise do.  Bad weather and short lines for rides, which was good, but the nth degree schmaltz was already trying (even to the willing), and we could barely afford lunch. 

I feel a lot different about it as an adult, inundated as I am with every level of their filthy marketing.
