I suck at blogging

Seriously, I do. Obviously it has been a while since my last post and this one is just because I am bored. I wish I had all of these witty little morsels to enter onto the page, but when I sit to type my mind goes blank. Generally, IRL, I can be pretty funny. Quick witted and what-not. But here, not so much. Maybe I can just jot down what has happened recently.

About 2 weeks ago my daughter, niece and myself went to EPCOT. We bought the 4 day passes for $99. You can go any 4 days to any of the parks up til sometime in May. I went to EPCOT once when I was about 11 years old and let me tell you, it was not as I remembered. You know how if you go somewhere and many years later you go back, it all comes back to you? As long as they haven't changed it all up, that is. Well, I think they must've really changed things cuz nothing rang a bell. I remembered as a kid they had these jumping water things and you could walk and at any moment water leapt over your head. I did not see these at all. All I saw was a circular flower bed with water droplets that jumped straight up and back down. That's it. Maybe they forgot to turn the other ones on that day. Meh.

Mission Space was awesome. It was the first time I had even experienced that. I was kinda afraid that maybe I would have a heart attack or stroke or something on it, because a couple of people have actually had issues with that ride. The intensity or something, idk. But, alas, I survived and I recommend it. Oh, and to all the people who rode at the same time that we did: If our pleading and screaming to not tip over the ledge and fall to our doom disturbed or ruined your experience in any way, I do apologize. We got into the ride way too much. I am sure that if Tori and Shannon had not pressed every button and flipped every switch that was in front of them at the time, then we would not have almost crashed and burned on that cliff, but you know how teenagers are.

I also thoroughly enjoyed Test Track. The line sucked. SUGGESTION TO THOSE WITH LONG HAIR: Either pull your hair back or restrain it in some way because when you get off that thing, you hair will be a knotted mess. Just sayin.

One other ride that was pretty cool was Soarin'. Well, one thing was kinda lame, like how the scenes just changed. No morphing or anything, just BAM! a new scene. I mean, this is Disney for pete's sake. You can do better than that. Anyway! The ride itself was cool. But if you are on the front or second row and are afraid of heights, DO NOT look down. You will have a white knuckle death grip the entire time. I made this mistake. So, the entire time I was trying to tighten my seat belt "just to make sure." You know what I'm sayin?

We are planning on going to Animal Kingdom next. I have never been there so I have no expectations. I am looking forward to riding Expedition Everest. I have no idea whatsoever if there are any other rides beside that one. Hopefully there is more than just that. I wonder if it is some kind of exaggerated zoo. Nah.

Maybe...if I think about it...I will blog again to tell you how that trip goes.
Ta-ta for now.
