Spent a little time online proxy voting my six Disney shares for the Board of Directors (of which I voted for all ten members), two company-introduced proposals, against two two shareholder proposals and one ratification for the company’s accounting firm.

Crocheted Mickey
My wonderful niece, Kimi, stopped by today to drop off a present she and her boyfriend RJ picked up for me on their last trip to Disneyland. She said that when she saw this crocheted Steamboat Mickey she knew right away that it belonged on my bed along with all my other friends, mostly Disney …

Tapias House Sitting Day Three

Got My D23 Expo Pass!
Bought my three-day pass today for the upcoming D23 Expo in August. If it’s anything like the one from two years ago I will have a great time. Not nearly as crowded or stressful as Comic Con, but also not nearly as many programs or panels. But this time I’m going for all three days …
