Magic Carpet Ride

I was in my living room right now, sorting & cleaning when I found myself laughing out loud! Yesterday, I picked Shea up from school and then went to pick her best friend, Hayley, up from her school. (They have been together since Kindergarten and Hayley moved to a different school this year) They are two peas in a pod and I get such a kick out of how much they love each other. I had decided that we would go out to Anaheim to go shopping at our favorite store, Fashion Bug, and then go to dinner at Goofy's Kitchen for Hayley's birthday present from us.(or as my best friend, Lisa, calls it : Goofy's Chicken- Again, I'm laughing out loud remembering the time that Lisa went on & on with the valet guy at the hotel how great Goofy's Chicken was! Shea & I roared when she got in the car and we finally corrected her- she was so embarrassed!) The girls just bring me pure joy. I love being with them and they really do crack me up! The best part of the whole night, (aside from watching them with all the boys-they are both boy crazy!) was when Aladdin came to our table. Our friend, Matt, played Aladdin for several years and I remember him telling me how they are not allowed to break character, ever! We are chatting with him, he's asking general questions...when out of nowhere, Hayley says, "So, how's your monkey?" I swear, I almost spit my milk out!!!!! The funniest part was, Aladdin tried so hard not to laugh, but I'm sorry, I could not help myself. Shea then asked, "How long have you had your monkey?" At that point, I had to excuse myself from the table- I wanted to be anywhere but there! These character actors deserve every penny that we paid to eat there! The good Lord knows that I would have loved to see Aladdin's monkey- C'mon you perves- I do mean his pet monkey, Abu! I will admit, a magic carpet ride does sound kinda fun right about now! "A whole new world..."
