Guy walking by us this steamy evening in Germany as the sun went down: "What, it's getting hotter?!"

I don't know if this was the hottest day ever, but it felt like it. My mom rented my dad a geezermobile (electric wheelchair) and he motored merrily around Epcot with a wet hat on his head and a wet handkerchief around his neck. We rode Soarin', which was spec-fucking-tacular (but which my Dad almost ruined with his constant bitching about his "equilibrium disorder"-- I was very angry about that.)

Then they went to the Magic Kingdom where Mom learned that you can't take a motorized wheelchair from one park to another. By the time they got there, they were all out and she had to push him around in the heat, which was completely heinous. By the time I met them to do the cermonial Snow White ride with my dad, they both looked ready to pass out. I bought them sodey and pushed Dad around. He and I went on Stitch's Great Escape and I was very excited that Kevin McDonald (as Pleakley) is the first voice you hear, and he guides the audience through the waiting area and into the main show area. That's two different rides now where you can find Kids in the Hall!

I went back to Epcot and rejoined Kirsten and Steph and we ate too much and watched Kirsten get roped into street theatre at the Japanese pavilion. She played the princess in the Tanabata play, which was very cute. Because it was Tanabata today, they had all these wishes, hand-written by park guests, tied to bamboo trees. We were too late to write down our own, but I read some of the wishes and it was really cool. Most of them were boring (peace on Earth, money, health), but a lot of them were funny or touching.


Anyway. I've been putting off buying an Alice in Wonderland wallet until the last moment and now I can't find one anywhere, which is very disappointing for me. I don't want a Sleeping Beauty one, I want an Alice one. Suckysuck.

Nevertheless, today was very, very exciting for me because today was CARB UP DAY. I ate whatever the hell I wanted and I ate WAY too much of it. I feel all bloated and sleepy and kind of sick and quite guilty and fat, but it was sure worth it at the time.

The nachos were a little too much though. I should've stopped with the margarita.
