    I had NO BUSINESS going on those rides. But I did them all once. And that's that. I'm lucky I didn't go into cardiac arrest. The coasters were all way too fucking intense, but like an asshole I went on them anyway. I think I was correct about Universal. It's just Six Flags on steroids. Haha 

    Harry Potter ride "Forbidden Journey" was fantastic!

    I will never do the Dr Doom Fearfall thing again...I must have developed a bit of a fear of heights.

    Who are the bigger nerds?

    The Star Wars nerds?
    The Harry Potter nerds?

    Or me, for asking this question?

    I watched 50 year old men wave wands around today, while wearing those black gowns, and they were in their own little "nerd world". 

    Until we arrived at Universal I had NO IDEA that this whole Harry Potter CULT even existed.

    Not far behind you. 56 and those same conversations about where do we go are starting to happen. I have stayed at the JW Marriott/Ritz facility a dozen times. Always enjoy the lazy river with a cocktail.

    EDIT: And we both made it to MSG2!

    Whose a bigger geek? The Harry Potter people? Or the 59 year old man who can't wait to get home and open his Pearl Jam mystery bag?

    One thing I do know.....

    The Harry Potter franchise is making a FUCKING TON OF MONEY. And I am probably the last person on the planet to become aware of that fact.

    Winter Garden Florida has peaked my interest. Looked at some nice apartments and condos. I'm pretty sure once I sell I will never OWN another house. She feels the exact same. We are leaning towards keeping whatever money we have, put it all into different accounts and such, and just rent. 

    But anyway, 12 miles from disney, beautiful landscape, lovely area, restaurants and shopping close by.

    And it doesn't fucking snow in Winter Garden Florida.

    When I was sold?
    As I was driving to apartment complex, we discovered a Portillos and a Giordanos both a mile or two away.
    It was a done deal.
