Speaking of that video, I'm going to watch it once I get off work here in 2 hours and 45 minutes. As far as pictures, I'm still going through all of mine. I bet my girlfriend is upset that she found this site and told me about it because I'm addicted now. I've also made some good friends on here as well. You are all family to me!

How old is your brother? It's good to get them obsessed when they are young. I remember taking my first ever Birnbaums to school with me in 5th grade and I read the whole thing. Every since then (I just graduated high school last Dec) I have bought the new edition and still read the whole thing. Of course I've got it all practically memorized now. :lol:

Heck! People think you're obsessed if you know what EPCOT stands for! My friends think I'm obsessed just because I know the opening day and year of DisneyWorld and opening year of Disneyland. (I brought it up in History. Something about a killing or something, then I said, Hey! DisneyLand opened the next year!)

Ok, I'm obsessed.

Ok, I've been reading this thread for days now and felt it was time I posted too. Yes, I'm obsessed. I, like many other people, do the following:

- Order the vacation DVD every year
- Do not get a map in the parks
- Log onto WDWmagic.com everyday
- Listen to Live 365 for park music
- Get depressed shortly after I arrive in WDW knowing I'll have to leave and go back home to work
- Etc., etc., etc.

My wife told me last night that I'm completely obsessed. I told her our 4 year old looked at the map of Magic Kingdom and pointed out Splash Mountain and BTMRR. When I told her, she said he's been brainwashed and he's obsessed too. Like someone said, you've got to start them young. I think she wants to keep our 10 month old away from me, but it's inevitable. His room already has an 8 ft mickey head that I painted before we even had kids.

That's a good start, make sure you get both of your children to watch them with you, like I stated earlier, you DO have to start them young.

You might not need one because you know the place by heart, as I do too, but you still need one as a souvenier. Your children might want to have a collection to remember things by when they are older. Also, there might be a ride on the map that won't be there much longer, as we all know which ones those are.

I don't think I've been logged off for weeks now. I keep mine on 24/7 for the sole purpose that it's the first thing I read when I wake up and the last thing before bed. I just keep the mouse on the refresh button! :lol:

I've had it one since yesterday afternoon while I was at work, then when I got home I turned it on here and haven't had it off yet. I fell asleep listening to Sorcerer1 on live365. It's still playing at the moment too.

I don't get depressed until I'm packing to go home and on my way to the airport. Turning around while on Mears and seeing the big WELCOME sign almost brings tears to my eyes knowing that I just left the magic (physically, I never leave there mentally). Of course, it's also a joy knowing that I will be back soon.

Just thought of another one. I'm sure other people feel the same way as this...

When you enter Magic Kingdom, walk past the flag pole following the "track" in the middle of Main Street USA and when you have your first glimpse of the Castle, you get that happy, heart-skips-a-beat type feeling :D

It's the feeling where you get choked up and you feel it in your stomach. It's one thing I will never forget, EVER. I love to watch other people's expressions, especially young ones when they see the castle for the first time, too.

Mine is still on, if someone calls, I put it on mute, when I leave, I don't turn it off, that way when I get home the first thing I hear is Disney music.

I haven't done that one yet either, but I'll have my next one planned by the time I get back soon.

I was just getting a list together of things I need to do tomorrow (or rather I should say today since it's already the morning) and I was writing down that I need to sort my Disney books. I don't think about it, but when I write Disney, I write it just as you see it everywhere. Everyone has always told me I do it perfect, I guess it's because I do it all the time since I can't go an hour without talking about it.

Also, there is something in my day that revolves around Disney, it just has to our my day isn't over. If I'm cleaning my car, wanting to relax, etc I have on my Disney music. I can't get enough of it.
