MuseForGeeks: Dorking Out, Disney Style

So a last week my friend pregnant pal Cindy & her husband got an invite to an Annual Passholder's event at Disneyland (yes I have a pass too and I go all of the time), I got to play 3rd wheel since my boyfriend isn't and AP holder, and our other friends were busy. The night offered strange eats like, (this one really sounded disgusting) "hot dog covered in mac and cheese with bacon", "holiday beignets" which, well were just the usual beignets (mickey shaped and tasty!), and a few other items which had massive lines for & we didn't care to waste time in. The only thing we wanted was the Plaza Inn fried chicken, but the Plaza Inn was closed!!! Gah!

Aside from seasonal holiday treats, it was the unveiling of the new holiday season... Disneyland made it "snow", the castle was covered in glittering x-mas lights, It's a Small World exploded with Christmas Decorations, inside & out, and a slew of characters were around to take pictures with.

Here are some pix from Disneyland!

Throughout the park they even pumped the air full of

faux gingerbread scents

Well, ever since that night I have been in super Crimbo overload mode. I decided to get my tree decorations early this year, and now I have a theme! Sorry boyfriend, but it's all going to be Sweets & Desserts this time around! I can't wait til we get our tree and I get to unleash sugary happiness all over it!!

here are some things i bought for it

Cupakes!

Candy Garlands!

Chocolate Dipped Ice Cream

Chocolate Cake!

Disney's Vinylmation Jingle Smells series

Each smell like different sweets! aren't they adorable??

Ok so last week Xbox Kinect also released Disneyland Adventures! It's as close to going to Disneyland as it gets! The layout is exactly like the real park! Sadly, I know it all too well, further proving my dorkiness.

The game itself is geared towards kids, but hell anyone who likes Disneyland on any level would find this entertaining. Here's the link to game info http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-US/Product/Disneyland-Adventures/66acd000-77fe-1000-9115-d8024d5309c1

You can run around doing errands for your favorite lazy (yes i said lazy) Disney Characters, like Belle who wants you to find more books so she can read, or Cinderella who's hungry & wants you to fetch her some popcorn (seriously bitch, eat a turkey leg or a corn dog!).

When you get tired of being a whipping boy or girl, you can go to the rides which are mini games. There are actually a ton of different & interesting little things you can do like conduct the head stones to sing at the Haunted Mansion, or dance w/the princesses (not exactly my favorite thing to do).

Overall it's a solid silly game and it makes my arms & legs sore at the end of the day. At least I can feel good about burning a few calories while playing video games.
