Dad-a-tude

November 24, 2008
By Dad

I know you’ve been waiting for this one. I got this right out of the dictionary - Dadatude (n.) Dad-a-tude A higher state of being that comes from being a father. A negative or irritating quality. A self-sacrificing blend of helpfulness, gentleness, arrogance, ignorance and generosity. What? You don’t believe me? Look it up. Made you look. Have a great day. Social Bookmarking

By Dad

While doing my daily research (no dear, it’s not an obsession) on Disney World yesterday, I came across a note from a recent Disney World guest. This was posted in the wdwinfo forum about the parks. (This forum gets hundred of posts every day and you almost have to be a certified Disney nut...

By Dad

If it’s Christmas day… …it must be time to go home. But, Daddy, our flight doesn’t leave until 4:00. Can’t we ride Men in Black one more time? OK kids, we’ll try, but I can’t guarantee anything. Remember how Disney World was the last time we were there on Christmas day. Thanks Dad, you’re the best. I know. So...

Disney World – Mission Space –  Daddy, why are you turning green?

It was finally open. Mission Space. The fastest, toughest, coolest, meanest ride Disney’s ever invented. How bad can it be? For safety, you should be in good health and free from high blood pressure, heart, back or neck problems, motion sickness, or other conditions that could be aggravated by this adventure. Expectant mothers should not...

The Fastpass ticket said return at 11:01 to 12:01. So at 10:55 we were impatiently waiting. Can the clock move any slower. All 8 of us were poised and ready. Space Mountain. Thrill was in the air.
