birthday girl attempts to pull the sword from the stone

this year disneyland has had this promotion that you get to go free for your birthday. i knew about this last year so i signed us up so that me and my ex- could both go for free and we'd each take the day off to go with each other. then my ex- dumped me and one of the things that popped to mind was, "what about disneyland?!". i don't know why i was so hung up on that. maybe because i'm not a disneyland person so me going is like a compromise or sacrifice on my part. like, look what i'm doing for you! anyway, as the year went on, i really didn't feel like going with my ex- anymore. i'd rather go with the girl i'm seeing but she has school and i can't ask her to take off for me. i don't want to throw away a free ticket so i decided to say fuck it and just go to disneyland with my ex-. the day was ok, nothing really memorable. all i wanted was to buy the gay mickey pin so i could wear it to the next gay day and i couldn't find it anywhere. i bet disney stopped making it once they made the gay connection, fuckers.

the girl i've been dating got me a puppy for my birthday and i haven't met the little guy yet but i've seen a picture and am contemplating what to name it. so here i am thinking about names and the sad thing is that while we were in line for the small world ride, i got an email from a former supervisor of ours turned friend. (my phone does email.) it was a really sad email. it was long and i could tell that something was wrong because of the typos. then i get to the part where she says she has cancer and is undergoing chemo. god... that's awful. i wish i could visit her. so sad.
