Absolutely. I work on the Virginia Tech campus, and we just opened a new dining hall (spectacular, BTW). I went in to try it out, and it smelled *just like* the Riverside Mill at POR. It got me so excited for our upcoming trip. One month from today!

Here are a few of my additions:
-When the background on your computer is a picture of New Fantasyland
-When you have the Intercot countdown on your desktop (65 days!!)
-When you buy your mom an apple candle for Christmas because it smells like the apple pie at Philharmagic
-When you and your mother start planning the decorations for your window at POP three months early by buying a mini Christmas tree and building a light-up wreath in the shape of a Mickey
-When you have too many photo albums and scrapbooks dedicated to Disney to count
-When you have at least 100 Disney beanie babies surrounding the walls of your bedroom
-When your pin shadow box and lanyard are full of pins and in need of another shadow box
-When you and your coworker are obsessed with Disney and that's all you talk about when you work together
-When you wear only Disney shirts a month leading up to your trip
-When you are talking to people for the first time and you gasp when they say they have never been to WDW / when they say they hate Disney
Shall-ist I need to continue?
Oh yeah, and the most important of all:
-When you are in college and your 19th birthday is finally on a break from school so you beg your mom to book a trip to Disney for it by making the homepages on the computer be flight information and hotel information
Yeah, I'm Hannah and I have ODD (Obsessive Disney Disorder).

Our family went camping last night with some other families from our church. There was of course, a campfire. We hung out, made S'mores, etc, etc. Typical camping stuff.
This morning, when I got up, I put my clothes on that I had worn yesterday. When I grabbed them to put them on, the first thought that popped in my head *wasn't* "Hey, these smell like smoke!" It was, "Hey, these smell like that part of Spaceship Earth where they're depicting Rome burning!"
Hysterical!!! I love this smell!!!
I also love the smell of splash mountains water. My mom says it smells musty but I love it. We were walking by a reservoir in Cranston RI and I said hey! That water smells just like splash mountain! Lol

When you’re out shopping at a mall (not on vacation) and you hear your daughter’s friend (who is also from a family of Disney junkies) say, “There’s no price on this, let’s find a cast member!”
Walking past the bathroom and thinking, "that smells like Mickey's Philharmagic!"....Glade Apple Cinnamon spray smells just like the pie in the "Be Our Guest" portion. I will never buy any other scent!
Also, my sister was in town(Jefferson City, MO) for a day last week and road back to Kansas City with us. We got in the car, plugged in my iPhone, started an Intercot Podcast and my 8-year-old daughter turns to my sister and says, “And this is our ride to Kansas City…”

When you're walking down Main Street, U.S.A., listening to the music and you realize they're not playing the songs in the correct sequence; the loop has been changed! (Some songs are newly added. Some are different versions of previous songs.) I picked up on it right away.

When it is the day before the ICOT15 meet and you are so anxious that you are not going to be there that your skin is crawling and you feel terrible that your missing it. Probably too much information, but its a fact of an addicted life.

Here's one that happened this morning...
When you're out of soap in the shower, and the only soap you can find is the soap you took from the last WDW hotel you stayed at. When you use it, the scent makes you feel like when you get out of the shower, you're heading to a park.

I keep saying the next trip to WDW is my last trip because of the high prices, but it never is. I always end up going again. Push that credit card to the limit

You know you are addicted when you...
1. You Look at WDW things for more than 2 hours and you dont have a trip in the works.
2. Have a Disney/ WDW Themed Room
3. Using WDW Resort shampoo and soap when youre having a bad day to make it a little brighter.
4.When You see Disney World related things on Tv and You have a Disney Nerd Heart attack.
5. Always See hidden MIckeys everywhere.
6. When you are dissapointed when you are handed a non- Mickey Mouse mug.
7. Listen to Disney Music and WDW music to get your fix of Disney for that day.
8. Have a plethora of Disney Movie CDs and WDW CDs and that primarily all you listen to.
