I'm kicking myself right now.   :Kit n Stik; :Kit n Stik;  Tomorrow I geta fistulagram instead of going to Disneyland, as I'd planned.  I was in Dialysis, and they called me up, and said there was an opening, would I like to to come in tomorrow instead of in two weeks?

I went in for my fistulagram.  And it was all for not.  My veins are too small, but they said they saw another vein they could use.  So that will probably require another fistula surgery.  It was just one of those days where everything goes wrong.   I hated to miss a day at Disneyland.  I like to go when the crowds are small and they have special celebrations.  And when it fits our schedule.  For most people, I would say hold off on going until next summer when Carland opens up and the refurbishment of Main Street is completed.  Ca Adventure, DL's neighbor park, isn't worth the ticket price as everything is under construction.
