When I’m not busy working or dealing with my better half’s addiction to Disney I’m usually watching shows about hotrods and helping my friend install his new Polaris RZR accessories. Well, the bug to “build” finally hit me again when I picked up a 2006 Legend green V6 manual transmission Ford Mustang Coup. It puts out a steady 210 HP to the wheels but the plan is to end up with a stealth Mustang capable of 400-500 HP at the wheels while retaining the retro look of the ’69 mustang it was modeled after.

I’ve put together a blog called “Me and My Mustang.” This is where I will keep track of the modifications, upgrades and overhauls that I have planned for the 4.0 power plant and drive train. If seeing steroids injected into a muscle car is your thing, hope on over and check out the new blog!

A while back I was talking about "live event video streaming" direct from Disney and as luck has it, I saw a family doing just that right from their table from 1900 Park Fare. Yup, a family was beaming their daughter's first meet and greet with the Princesses of Disney right out to the Internet so family at home could view the event live if they wanted to! I never gave it serious thought and Lisa dismissed it right away but it seemed like a really cool idea and I think I might give it more thought for next years trip!

It's been so humid lately that our 100 year old home has started to have that musty smell. So, Lisa made me dig out the "Disney Candles" to help freshen up the house a bit. Lisa loves beanpod candles and we usually have them all around the house to keep the house smelling "in season."

We have Disney specific candles because as awesome as the Polynesian is, it is still a room that gets used daily and it smells like a room that gets used by hundreds of people a year. With that said, we bring candles to give the room a bit of that "special Disney" smell. Apparently she wanted a little Disney reminder so I had to go dig out the left over candles!

In case you wonder, our Disney smell is Sweet Pea! :)

I was talking to my mom yesterday and we were talking about the trip to Disney and she said that she was disappointed because I didn't propose to Lisa while we were at Disney. It's not like she doesn't read my blog on occasion but I guess that she thought that I was still going to do it.

So unfortunately, as of right now there are still no men's wedding rings in our future or any wild Disney wedding cakes to be ordered but I'm starting to think that maybe next year there will be! Hey, eventually I'll get over my little protest about getting married and if I were to marry anyone again, it would be Lisa!

While Lisa has been contemplating becoming a member of the Disney Vacation Club I've been pondering the best way to get to Disney next year. Yes, a plane is the fastest way and it's really the way most people travel. Well, I'm chicken and have no intentions on flying. So, I decided the best way to go to Disney is to go in style!

That means I just had to go out to buy a new Mustang! Sure, our Honda Pilot was great but taking a Mustang down I95 would be great! Lisa's convinced I'm going through a mid life crisis since Mr. White lab coat gave me a wake up call about my diet, exercise, and general living but I've just always loved Mustangs and now I'm in a place on life where I can have one.

Now I just have to figure out how to fit two adults, three kids and 11 days worth of luggage into a Ford Mustang? Any ideas?
