One thing I missed in the last post was going to the Farmer’s Market, and going to the freaking most amazing Abercrombie and Fitch store I’ve ever been in… it was like being in a shopping museum. Not a store. Absolute magic. I’ve since developed a hate for that store, but at the time it was euphoric… an OCD persons dream, perfectly folded clothes separated by color and design.

Returning to the regular timeline, Disneyland came and we performed the morning of the first day there. We sang our songs, I accompanied on one of the worst pianos I’ve ever played, and we were off to enjoy the day. The first day of Disneyland, I had set up somewhat of a schedule of what we would do and in what order… The day was extremely rough because everyone had a different way of “doing” Disneyland. By the end of the day I had pissed off enough of the group that it was obvious the second day wasn’t going to include most of the same people.

Todd and I got into a fight… More like Todd and the group, but it’s a long story, and somewhat pointless now. That night the room was awkward, having participated in the day’s trauma Todd was not included in my trip to Chili’s. We spent the whole time in the restaurant complaining about what they had done, and I honestly believe if we hadn’t made one of our religious trips to Chili’s that the drama of the night would’ve been much more elevated. I am glad that it happened, because it was the first “fight” I had with Todd… and I learned a lot about how he reacts to problems, and how he fights for what he believes.

The very next day we began the trip home. The trauma of the previous night started to blow over. And when we stopped for lunch we made yet another trip to chili’s, this one involving Todd… and I was glad that it had been resolved… for the most part:) As I look back on Choir tour in general I can only imagine the difference it made in my life. I will always be grateful for the friends I made and the impact they have on my life.
