I understand. Just forget about your clients. It's really none of their concern of where you're going for vacation.

I've done that before too (only it was for reservations for the Crystal Palace for my birthday).
I get that look from "my learned friends" (read: a-hole lawyers) all the time. Now, I tell people I'm going to Florida and if they start I say: "I could go somewhere else, but for now, this is where I want to go. Why waste my money going on another expensive vacation when all I'll be doing is thinking of where I really want to be?" That, I found, has shut them up more than any other line I have ever tried...
... Of course, it may just be because I no longer give a you-know-what about what My Learned Friends think!!! :lol:

Its the other way around for me...
I've gotten past that point.
People EXPECT me to give them trip reports now (like on the boards).
...and now, I'm the 'company expert' on anything Disney.
"Hey, were going over there next month! Where should we go? What do you suggest we do? Can you come and show us all the ins-and-outs?"
I don't say anything to anyone anymore. It is generally assumed that if I'm off for the next 2 days, I'll probably be at Epcot, AK, AC @ Pleasure Island, etc...
They know me by what I wear and other subtle signs. I stopped talking about it a long time ago... yet they keep finding me!

I hear ya DixiGirl...
I get that look from my own family...or I hear..."You're going back again?! Why?"
I always say...if you have to ask, you don't get it.
People at work roll their eyes when they hear my boss (another Disneyite) and I discuss our next trip (ususally within a week of each other). We ususally go in July, but we talk about it when we book in March. We don't bother even telling our co-workers anymore because of the looks and comments...they just easedrop.
We will also talk about any news updates on Disney (Expedition Everst) or any new found sites or secrets of Disney. He now subscribes to Disney's Inside the Magic on his ipod, which I plan on subscribing to when I get an ipod.
Your husband made an excellent choice...to me, that would have been the best gift! I am sure that I'm not alone in saying...we are so jealous!

I'm a Junior in HS and everyone I know, at school, church, and even close family friends laugh at me and my family because we go so much. I try to explain how awesome it is, but it just doesn't seem to get through. Although, we have referred my uncle and a friend of my mom's to DVC, and we have gotten lots of Disney money because of it.

:wave: Not everyone gets it....true! I found, however, at the school I teach at, more and more teachers are coming to me asking for help with tips, booking etc. Many of these teachers are the ones that made fun of me before they went on their first trip. When they come back, all they want to do is talk about going back.
Give the "others" time. I am a Disneyaholic....I admit it and I refuse to let the "others" ruin WDW and the escape it allows me.:sohappy:

No, you have to be a certain type person.
Some people judge an amusement park for their thrill rides. Disney isn't about taking you 200 feet in the air and dropping you. It's about imagination.
Some parks will take a mile of metal piping...twist and turn it...paint it...slap on a sign and invite you to ride "The Mountain Coaster". Disney will actually build a moutain around it...supply audio voices, music and throw in a creature to chase you, just to make it interesting.
Disney puts such detail into everything they create that it would take a lifetime to realize. That's what makes it interesting. You never see the same thing twice if you open your eyes and really look around...and appreciate.
Tell your students that the more they understand the man...the more they understand what goes into creating Disney...the more they will understand what it is all about.

Absolutely! After much research and painstaking statistical analysis, I can categorically state that to really appreciate WDW you must be between 1 and 99 years of age [statistical error rate estimated at plus or minus 12 years in 4 out of 23 cases].
