This morning and afternoon I finished the T-Rex skeleton while watching the parade and dog show. This set looks so damn cool on the coffee table (my wife will make me move it eventually 😂), love it!

I’m dying for AP access to Epic. Just give me limited after 4pm access and I’ll happily go grab some Starbucks on these chilly nights, mango bread from Oak & Star, and plant my butt at the fountain just enjoying the vibes.

All good things come to an end, unfortunately, and I am back on land. Already thinking about how and when I can talk my way into another cruise 😆

Some shots from The Fray last night at Eat to the Beat. Always a fun show with the entire theater singing along to every song.

Having a really good time tonight!

A large banner with “Yellowcard” on it in a 90s retro font, the drums on a raised platform above a VHS-like graphic with “Better Days” in the label area. Walls of “amps” are on both sides of the drum platform, with fireball effects in front of them. Yellowcard on stage at the Mid Florida Credit Union Amphitheater in Tampa.

Was looking through the shots I took the night we went to see Starlight a few weeks ago and found this little gem. Not sure why I like it so much, but I do.

Finally, a spam text that made me laugh! 😂
A text from an unknown number that reads “been meaning to check if you're still trying to convince everyone that your weird food preferences are actually good”

Snagged a few nice items from the in-laws’ collection tonight.
A laminated original Epcot Center placemat and a limited edition print of a Main Street Station sketch by former Imagineer Eddie Sotto. The text of the certificate on the back of the print. “Former Imagineering SVP, Eddie Sotto is best known for his work on "Main Street USA." Disneyland Paris, partnering with Disney legend Herb Ryman. He played a key role in developing Disneyland's "Indiana Jones Adventure, "Space Mountain" and "Mission: Space" attractions among others. His Aunt, Marilyn Sotto, was a senior costume designer here at WDW, so art runs in the family. Today SottoStudios, " Imagineers" private homes, jet aircraft interiors, and other exotic experiences. Secret: You'll hear his voice as the platform conductor on the Magic Kingdom Steam Train.”

I just had a super rare and lucky card pull. Just an insane pack.
A screenshot from opening a pack in Pokemon TCGP. I pulled a Leafeon EX, Crobat EX, and special art Ho-oh EX, as well as special art Totodile and Stantler cards. My wife is very jealous.

Decided to try out doing a LEGO build video/time lapse with Luxo Jr, and I think it turned out okay besides the damn reflection at the top. Might take apart some of my other big sets and try a few more of these lol

My last chance for a few weeks to watch Happily Ever After in the park. Since my favorite spot is no more, I went to my second favorite and got a slightly lower angle

I was productive enough to be happy tonight. Did the Epcot collage in the office with minimal measuring as I hung each piece, and finally put up the Japan print from Festival of the Arts in our bedroom.
A collage of Epcot art hanging above my wife’s desk. Art for the park’s opening, Horizons, and Imagination on the left, a canvas print of a picture of Spaceship Earth in the middle, and on the right art for The Living Seas, The Seas with Nemo and Friends, and Illuminations: Reflections of Earth on the right.

Ended up with about 300 pics of Bakso today since I got lucky with timing and was there when he was interested in playing with his ball that was in the fountain. He’s over 100lbs and still looks so damn cute. Here he was afterwards, relaxing.

Was playing with some more pictures from Japan the past few days and decided to try to find a few that would look good with a “vintage” look. Not entirely sure how much I like them, but figured I would share.

Got my favorite kind of view for a smaller venue, stage and front of house! Time to have a Clutch night!
