What I'm doing this weekend

That's right.

I'm going to Disneyland. And renting a wheelchair. I have special needs, and I don't care who knows it! (Also, rumor is that if you have a wheelchair, you go to the head of every line. Of course, I'm pretty sure the doctor's note I have will do that for me, too... So, maybe I won't rent a wheelchair. I'm gonna see how long I can stand/walk before I make the decision.)

Viva la Disney, people!

Reunited, and it feels so good!

As some of you may recall, about this time last year, I bought myself an annual pass to Disneyland. Why? Because I love Mickey Mouse. And because I wanted to. And because my favorite aunt who lives in California will let me crash at her house (with my friends) on incredibly short notice.

It's been an incredibly fun year, I'll tell you.

But it's coming to an end. So, in classic Evans style, I'm going out with a bang. (It's how my mother taught me to do things.) I came to California yesterday with my good friend Christine, and this morning we're headed to the park. Because we're masochists, and because we like short lines, we're actually hoping for a little bit of rain. (Not a lot - just enough to keep the locals away, and only because we love short lines.)

Aaaaahhhhhhh..... I. Love. My. Life.

It's a tie...

...between the two cutest pics of the four cutest girls.

Aren't we adorable, and don't we look like we were having the most fun EVER?!


... It's because we are. And we DID! (And now I'm so tired that using these few words has worn me plum out and I must go to bed - at 9:00 pm. I know - weird.)
