Disney Time

I’m leaving for Vero Beach on Saturday, and that means that my brain has entered Disney Time. You know, that threshold you cross when your trip is juuuust close enough that you realize that omg it’s actually happening and thank the heavens it’s finally time for vacation. Disney Time is that period before a vacation where you start thinking of everything in relation to your upcoming trip.

For example:

In four days I will be flying to Orlando.

In four days and two hours I will be riding the Orlando monorail (no, not that one) to the terminal to collect my bags.

In four days and four hours we will have checked into Disney’s Vero Beach Resort.

In four days and four and a half hours I will be sunburned.

In five days I will be having brunch at Sonya’s.

In six days I will be sitting on the beach, enjoying my 13th pina colada (of the trip, not that day).

In one week I will be strolling through Downtown Disney.

In one week I will have spent all my grocery money.

In one week I will be eating dinner at The California Grill.

In one week I will be packing my suitcase.

In one week and one day I will be flying back home.

Disney Time creeps into your brain slowly, and then all of a sudden, it takes over. In meetings, my brain fast-forwards several days and imagines what I’ll be doing at that second while I’m in Vero. Literally, all I can think about these days is Florida sunshine and Disney magic, even if we’re in Vero Beach most of the time.

Have you experienced Disney Time? And is there a cure?
