You know your trips getting close when...
the expiration date for the orange juice you just bought, is within your trip dates.

You know your trips getting close when...
you start trying to time your haircut so your hair will be just the right length for the trip.

Anybody else got any?

You know when your trip is getting close..
When your pet goes into hiding when he sees the suitcases come out and he knows he is going to be boarding elsewhere while you are gone.:mickey:

You Know Your Trips Close:
When you eat out for 5 nights in a row before the trip so you don't have to grocery shop until you come home.

I also know when my trip is getting close when I time my haircuts. Just proves that great minds think alike. Disney minds that is.:mickey: LOL

You know your trip is close when: you visit the UG crowd calendar and all your dates are showing. No more entering words from the UG book to see the rest of it!

You know your trip is getting close when for dinner the week before you start having strange combinations just to use up whatever is in the refrigerator.

I love the original poster's one about the orange juice... I notice that one every time!

One to add...

You know you're getting close when you start looking for the misting fans that you bought on the last trip...

when you get on Intercot 6 more times a day than your usual 3 to see more current updates for the time that you will be there...;)

Also when the month you are going is up on the Disney website...:mickey:

When we arrange for the cat sitter to come by and feed and play with our cat. We did that yesterday, 15 days to go.

These are me to a T! Also, the one about the tennis shoes - perfect!

For us, we know it's getting close as the paper chain hanging from the bannister gets shorter and shorter! Also, the day we get to do the single digit dance is always a big deal!

We we start getting things picked out. Like these shoes, those rain ponchos, that sunscreen, what happens we see something we need we will pack it. The final itinerary printed from start to finish with dining times, ressie numbers, dates and times of parades, EMH, park hours, and anything pertaining to our family during our trip. The haircut and pedicure are the other obvious things that signify that it is almost there.

This one's me--I buy a special little notebook to write everything in, and begin "The List". I was amazed how many of the former posts I can relate to! Fun thread. For me it's also the " I-can-put-up-with-anything-cause-I'm-going-to-Disneyworld-soon" attitude! :blush: Really helps me get through the End of the Year stuff at school!

...when the disney bag of disney ponchos comes out of the woodwork. like, where has this been hiding all year?

...when you start noticing disney in your everyday life...more often then usual. ie: "that swirl in the paint looks like Stitch now that i give it a good look." or "when did my school get all these hidden mickeys?"

one personal one i have is when the notebook comes out. the past few trips ive been keeping a sorta journal that i just add to every trip just to remember stories to tell my friends. its got a disney collage on the cover. when i take it out of my bookshelf and have it ready, i know its time to go.

Hmmm..for me, it's when I start panicing at work, and staying later evenings to make sure everything is done before I go! :mickey:

This is a great thread :thumbsup:

You know your trip is getting close when...

... you spend those precious last days on Intercot more than ever

You know your trip is getting close when...

... you're reading the other trip reports and trying to start drafting your own but you're still days away

You know your trip is getting close when...

... you make sure you have enough batteries for those phones, PDAs, and laptops so you can write trip reports as you go

You know your trip is getting close when...

... you're watching the evening news and start dancing 'cause that day is now on the 7-day forecast:woohoo:


You know your trip is getting close when...

... you drink up all the milk in the fridge and regret it while waiting for your flight

You know your trip is almost here when...

....you're sitting at the gate wondering if you packed those Mickey ponchos
