ok i've decided we are moving
( and i guess i never posted this)



...to disneyland. over the weekend we made the drive to la. one of my studios performed at disneyland and i had to go because i've spent 7 months teaching some kids a dance. ashley asked me if it was worth the headaches and i said no. while it was fun it was a huge process with lots of regulations. it required some to change choreography, parents to yell at us, tears, adding more kids to dances, and all this for a 30 minute performance.



next time i go to disneyland i will hopefully not have a 3 1/3 hour chunk taken out of my day so i will get to go on more rides. it was the most fun i've had in a very long time. not to mention the first time patrick and i have been to an amusement park together. he had fun laughing at me scream on all to roller coasters. ( which to the average person aren't even that scary) he said he was impressed i even went on them. but, my fellow teacher mitch, assured me none of them went upside down. most of them i'd even go on again. (not tower of terror) in fact, when i get a copy of the picture from tower of terror i'll have to post it. it's very funny unless you're me.



i must be honest and say that patrick and i really needed this vacation. we never do things anymore. we have opposite schedules and are poor. we had fun and we got to spend (almost) 3 whole days together and it was awesome. we haven't had time together like that since we first started dating. although i wish patrick did have to do work stuff the first day we were there and we both wished we had time to go to the parks for another day.



patrick and i did decide however, that we will not bring out kids to disneyland until the are older. i'm not dealing with tired cranky toddlers in strollers that aren't even tall enough to ride the rides. also, we decided we are never going to do things like that in large groups. one because i'm impatient and two, because again it's not possible. there's always somebody that is going to be difficult. besides, we were only a group of 3 and we were there for 16 hours and we still didn't get to do everything. i can only imagine how little a family gets done in one day.

song lyrics of the day
a dream is a wish your heart makes
when your fast asleep
in dreams you will lose your heartache
whatever you wish for you keep
