This morning I finally got my Maingate for this year. A Maingate is a Disney cast member's pass to get up to three people into the Disney parks free a certain number of times per year, and spouses or registered dependents of cast members get them too (so Americans, please marry me; I'd quite like a green card ( Read more... )

My sister just e-mailed me the results of a survey asking ladies "What male actions can you just not help yourself thinking they look cute doing?". [The English version of this post links here instead.]

With the small cluster of Americans we have on here, I have to ask: Anyone got friends or family affected by the tornadoes in the south last week? I would've asked earlier, but work was nuts and then I lost a couple of days coming back home and now I'm back at school.I've got a couple of friends in Auburn (remember my formal photo? my date and her ( Read more... )
