Lackadaisical Days

€uroMeinke · 10-03-2005, 03:56 PM

Hmmm this thread seems to be more of a downer than I intended. I'm not really looking to let my AP lapse or anything like that, rather I'm expressing my current malaise and pondering what to do about it - as well as reality checking against the rest of you. I'm not sure if I qualify as "burnt out" yet.

I applaud ISM's post though becasue I think he rather nicely expresses a solution to my funk in creating our own twists and treats. Looking back to the 50th, I have to say that the most fun was the fun we created ourselves. The challenge of course is finding the new. Mouse Adventure, for as many years as it's been going on has had a pretty good run on keeping things fresh - I'd like to think we can do the same.

But I also do like to have some focus beyond the mouse. Recent trips to Tokyo and Paris have been a blast, and while there was a Disney componant those trips were so much more. Likewise, my recent trips have made me look at Los Angeleles and Southern Californmia in a different way - there is soooo much to do and see here, and I think I've barely scratched the surface. I've been taking the train into work and been fantasizing about exploring some of the stops along the way (well, on the red line anyway

). There's a lot of swank in this town and I hope you'll all join me in uncovering (and indulging in) it.

Count me in! I feel I've been "fallow" for a few years now, and only Star Wars (don't hit me) got me out of my little hut of lizzie-by-herself. Okay, I'll admit that the new series left us all wanting, but the cool thing is that I met new people, and re-met old friends. I re-discovered my inner Goth. I went back to a certain land that had towered over my youth with my own son, and found wonder afresh, through his eyes. Go, Buzz!

And since I'm still new to my hometown of L.A., I look forward to exploring it with LoT-ers!

I hope some of you will be able to drag yourselves to the park in January.
