My addiction has always been the planning of the trip....not the next one, or the one after that...but three trips from now. Already have the the rooms booked. Something must be wrong with me!!:mickey:
My family is so obsessed with Disney they see hidden mickeys everywhere! My son even bought a fish and I swear it has a perfect hidden mickey on its tail. I tried getting a clear picture of it but haven't so far. My husband is completly obsessed and talks about Disney atleast ten times a day.
When you strike up a conversation with someone you otherwise despise, because they happen to be going to WDW...
When the last 100+ YouTube searches begin with "wdw" and go from there...
When you actually watch the vacation videos of complete strangers on YouTube...
When you so obsessively ask your kids if they have questions about WDW that they actually say no...
When you're 2 weeks away from your first WDW vacation in 7 years, and you think about it every waking moment of the day, and someyimes while you are sleeping...
When you see the look in your husbands eyes that says, "OMG is she really talking about WDW AGAIN!!!!!" (BTW, he is a Disney lover too)
When en route to my vacation in St. Croix I decided to take 2 days to go to WDW first!!!
( Hey the layover was 4 hours at MCO so I decided to make it a 48 hr layover! :mickey:)
First let me say that I LOVE this post. Makes me feel so much better!
When you see hidden Mickeys in everything.
When you can't sleep so you come up with things that have to do with Disney for each letter of the alphabet until you go to sleep.
When you can close your eyes and imagine you're walking down Main Street USA or that you're on your favorite ride.
When your daughter gets you started imagining you're on SE and you go through each scene and talk about what you see, smell, and hear...
When people call you and say "I am going to WDW,can you help me plan the trip?" and you say sure, and then email them a 4 page detailed description of what needs to be done before, during, and after. I have done this more than once and one friend actually laminated it and shares it with others. I thought wow, I have really lost it, and my FIL says "you need to work Disney" and I say nah, it might lose the "magic". Nothing makes me happy like the Mouse :mickey:
My DW and I have talked about working for Disney in Orlando. She could get a job at the hospital in Celebration, we could buy a house there, etc, etc. But we don't want to live in that summer heat and humidity. Maybe when the kids grow up and move away we'll go down there. Maybe....
When you actually DO go on a vacation that isn't to Disney World and your whole family makes comments like, "It's okay, but it's no Disney World." (I'm talking about Atlantis). Also, similar to a previous poster, you seem to find buildings that remind you of The Wilderness Lodge...everywhere.
when my next trip is still 3 months away (80 days) and i cant stand it and all i am motivated to do is check intercot and look at other disney sites to gather all the information that i can because all i can do is think about going to disney!:welcome::wave:

You know you're addicted to WDW when...
-You are stressing because you DON'T have a trip booked
- When you finally do book a trip, you start packing right after you make your ADR's
- You are looking at houses and want to buy one in particular because it reminds you of the Wilderness Lodge
- You listen to the WDW cd's in the car almost exclusively (4 Parks/1 World, Illuminations, etc.)
- You find it hard to sleep without some sort of Disney parks show playing on DVD
- You are truly horrified at the thought of going somewhere else on vacation (is there anywhere else???)
- You are trying desperately to figure out a way to stow away in your parents SUV when they head to WDW for their 59th wedding anniversary
-.....yes, I am truly an addict....
Hmmm........ let's see.
1. I read the WDW tour guides ('Unofficial Guide, Birnbaum's etc) for fun in between trips - even though we go every year.
2. Checking Disney blogs/sites every day during lunch
3. Listening to our Disney Parks cd in the car
4. Constantly planning that next trip!
(I'm going to NY in a couple of weeks and I don't even want to go! I'd MUCH rather spend the time at Disney!!)
I get really excited about being in the airport until I remember not all flights end at WDW. :(
I actually get depressed and sit on the plane pouting!
Last weekend getaway trip we had, both DH and I realized how spoiled we have become with the WDW life. Couldn't find a decent place to eat lunch or dinner (NEVER happens at WDW), the hotel was boring and basic (DEFINITELY not our home-away-from-home FQ) and couldn't find any fun places to investigate(again, NEVER happens in WDW).
Piffle . . . . . We're addicts . . . . :D
Every day when I pass the airport I look longingly at the planes taking off and wonder how many people on board are on their way to WDW... :(
The music i listen to Live 365 like all the time! And i think the planning also hits me i get addicted to writing what to pack
:goofy:

When you pick up a penny off the ground and put it into a piggy bank to save up for the next trip:mickey:
You book your resort/start planning a year in advance.
It's all you'll talk about.
