This is the first story I've ever started that I've finished and posted. Hope some of you enjoy!

Last Saturday started out like any other day at the Happiest Place on Earth with my nephew and son, but it turned out to be one of the strangest days of my life.
I live in the Los Angeles area, a good distance away from Anaheim but close enough to Disneyland to justify having an annual pass for my 3-year old son and myself. Long days and nights at the parks used to be among me and my wife's favorite things, before she lost her mind and left me a little over a year ago.
Anyway, last Saturday. My brother Bill, his son, my son and I were at Disney for no real reason. You don't really need a reason when your admission is already paid for. We had been on a few kiddy rides, and I had let Bill escape and ride single-rider on a few rides while I watched the kids. Bill returned from Space Mountain and returned the favor, sending me away with a Fast Pass for Indiana Jones.
If you're not familiar with how lines at Disneyland work, here's the run down: they suck. You can either wait one to two hours in the normal line, or get a Fast Pass for one ride at a time that lets you into a special line where you might only wait 15 minutes. The catch is you usually have to wait an hour in between Fast Passes. So, you generally aren't going on more rides, you just waste your time in more entertaining ways than standing in endless lines.
I strolled into the Indiana Jones Fast Pass line, not in a hurry to get back to Toon Town and see another costumed stranger give my nephew a high-five (my kid won't talk to them, he says they have creepy eyes.) I caught a few glances of the pair of women ahead of me, wearing matching crop tops and yoga pants, while winding our way through the unused portion of the ride queue. Since my wife left so unexpectedly, I hadn't dated or even really tried. But that didn't mean I didn't appreciate the sight of a well-toned thigh in tight lycra.
