I
wanted to make this something spectacular. It's been nearly two years
since I began this blog, and I've managed a post a week the entire
time, plus one or two extras. I hoped to find some major source of
inspiration and give my readers an early-early Christmas gift of
something astounding.
Then...Tuesday
happened.
It
was the most severe gutpunch I have experienced in my life, and it
killed most of my desire to write. I spent most of Wednesday in
something like a sick daze. I'm getting better as I process it, but
it's so rough. I thought so much
better of my countryfolk than this. I honestly don't know how
I'm going to get through the next four years (or however long it
takes to impeach his orange ass and discredit his entire
administration). But I will
try to continue my posting rate. I have posts brewing from before
this catastrophe, and hopefully my psyche is resilient enough to
recover and keep providing content (in addition to all the real-world
activism I will most assuredly
be doing).
Because
we still have Disneyland. We still have that. I'm going to need it
dearly in the near future, to escape the horror of reality once in a
while. That's what it's there for, isn't it? To be a better
place than the world we live in?
So
I offer you this for Disneyland Dilettante Post #100: 100 Disneyland
Delights. Little bits of joy a day at the park can provide, even in
these scary times.
