1. When I’m mentally preparing for a day at Disneyland, I have to put on my “game face”.  Which is probably not what you think.  It’s actually me trying to make an extra effort to be kind and courteous to the other people in the park. Because there are really some douche-bags there.  I mean really.
2. My favorite Disneyland food is the corn dog.  But it has to be from the red corn dog cart at the end of Main Street.  None of this Corn Dog Castle bull. (They miiight be exactly the same?)
3. My Disneyland outfit of choice is leggings, a Mickey tee, a belt bag (some less fashion-forward might call it a fanny pack) and flip flops.  Flip flops all day long.
4. I love having an annual pass to Disneyland because I can honestly only take it in small doses.  It is hard work to be there from 8am til closing.  I prefer the late afternoon shift.
5. I am going to be a little bit sad when Stevie turns 3 next month.  No more free admission and he is not getting an annual pass.  He’s going to be a once-a-year kind of kid, if he’s lucky.
6. It’s rare that I buy merchandise, but if I do, it’s Mickey.
7. The best and worst time to go is the holidays.  It’s so ridiculously crowded, but oh so magical.
8. My favorite ride is actually Screamin’ at California Adventure.  I haven’t been on it in a couple years, since we’re riding the kiddie stuff lately.  But I love that too.  When Stevie’s face lights up on Small World, I don’t care how annoying that song is – you enjoy it.
9. When I watch the fireworks show, I am instantly 5 years old again.
10. This.  This is quite possibly my all-time favorite moment at Disneyland to date.  For so so so many reasons.  (I will warn you that my scream is annoying.  This will come as no surprise.  But Stevie’s laugh is so cute!)
