Today, in the Words of Dane Cook, Was a Blasty Blast

Today was awesome, to say the least. It started with me getting up...obviously. When I did, I caught up on some more TV and then headed off to Magic Kingdom with Dayna, loveable Harry Potter nerd extraordinaire. While on Main Street, we took a picture with the Mayor. He asked us if we were on our honeymoon and we replied "oh...well...uh..n-" and he kinda told us we were anyways. So there we were. Wedded on Main Street...kinda. We met up with some of her friends, who proved to be truly wonderful, and we had a blast. We ran around Magic Kingdom rampid fist pumping (Jersey Shore reference) on the roller coasters, joking about our Disney made family lives (Alexandra, one of her friends, and soon to be mine if only it can be made Facebook official, since that is the only true way to tell if a friendship exists or not of course, was also "married" to a street preformer at Hollywood Studios), and last, but certainly not least, took pictures with Tiana and Naveen!

Tiana and Naveen are, of course, from the marvelous new Disney film The Princess and the Frog. We waited a long time to get to see them and words could not describe how exctied I was to actually see them! I had been looking for them everywhere around Disney World and I finally pinpointed them. So as I go to meet them, Tiana takes me by the hand and greets me. She asks where I'm from and I say Tulsa and Naveen mistkes me for salsa. We share a good laugh over it and I tell him that wasn't quite the city's name but that I was a big fan of the food itself. He then thinks it over and says "Tulsa, Nebraska?" I smile and tell him "close, but not so much (deep inside I'm really saying "haha shut your face," because I am completely smitten with Princess Tiana)." Tiana replies "Well we do know one thing, you like food." I exclaim in agreeance and we proceed to take a picture. It was awesome, except for the fact that Dayna's camera was dying and I didn't have mine, so she took a picture with her phone. So when she sends it to me, the piture is considerably smaller. But at least I have something.

Later that night, we go to an event at one of the apartment complexes for Mardi Gras. We have some scrumptous food. They were serving red beans and rice, jambalaya, fried chicken, and some kind of delciousity that could have been bread pudding of something...but it was amazing. Also, they had some sweet (sweet as in the food, you youngsters...) cornbread that was simply divine. Then Princess Tiana and Prince Naveen a make guest apperance at the party. Excited, Dayna and I scurry along to meet them. I still don't have my camera, but I am not one to miss up a perfect oppertunity to chat with Tiana! So Dayna takes a pictue of me with them, with my phone, and gives it to me. It doesn't save. So I don't really have a good picture with them, but I got sixteen weeks to go and get one. I love those those kids...

So then we go to Downtown Disney. Dayna has to make a shirt and I go with her. I decide I want to make one too. I was going to make one to reflect my life here. So i picked the emblem with Dory from Finding Nemo that said "Just Keep Swimming" and at the top said "3 words" then the three words listed at the bottom are: God Ramen Liam. However, they won't let you put God on there... or prayer..or anything religious affliated. So I decided against it. But, sirs and madams, I decided tonight...was the night! I went to Ghirardelli and I got the chocolte dipped waffle cone with coffee flavored ice creme. It. Was. Heavenly. Total and sheer bliss! And, to top it all off: they accept Disney gift cards, which I am in posession of thanks to my mother at Christmas. Later on, walking around in an eternal high that the soul derives from the precious chocolate consumed, we walk around and go to another candy shop. We see a place where you an make your own chocolte confections. I simply can't resist.

As you know, I've been desperately craving one of those rice krispies with chocolate on them. But there was too many delcious otions to settle for that. I eventually, after much deliberation, chose the marshallow. I'm a huge sucker for marshmallow in any form. But this way, was delightful beyond imagining. First, I had the four marshmallows dipped in dark chocolate. Then rolled into Reese's cups, and then drizzled with white chocolate. O. My. Bama. It was so good. After that, we ran into one of Dayna's fun roomates that I had already met previously. We shared some laughs with her then went back to the bus stop where we met some new Cha-cha addicted friends TJ and Kelsey. Unfortunately, we did not get their numbers so we'll probably never see them again.

Then I come home, after parting ways with Dayna, and I got to lean the mess of my roomates. Then, I discover one of them has replace my two liter (that someone had drunk out of) with a new one. Roomate comradery...nothing better. A day of love, chocolate, and Tiana. Who could ask for anything more?

  1. I think you should try to make friends with Tiana. Then, bring her back to Tulsa to open a restaurant. Best idea!
