Hi. My name is Aisha, and I'm a Disney Adult.
But I'm not like those other Disney Adults out there – I'm a cool Disney Adult.
I've certainly never thrown a wedding where I made my guests figure out their own way of getting fed during the reception, because my partner and I chose to spend the thousands of dollars our parents budgeted for catering on guest appearances by Mickey and Minnie Mouse. Could never be me.
(My partner did propose to me while we were in Disney World celebrating my 30th birthday. That's cool, though.)
I have absolutely zero interest in living in a residential community and staffed with Disney cast members – what hell might that turn out to be?
