Okay, I can now finally prove that I met the Captain. Though, if you're following his blog as you should be, then you already have seen his version of the evidence.
Just LOOK at how FREAKISHLY tall the man is! I was there, folks. Don't let his crazy talk about my shortness fool you -- I am obviously a very tall woman. He's just 8 or 9 feet or something. In no way am I short. Nope. Not at all.
Also, visiting him at work was a mistake. Not nearly enough time! Next opportunity we make dinner plans. The Captain is even more likable in person than over the series of tubes we call the internet; his coworkers were plenty nice too. :) Which was good, because I was nervous about meeting.
Making his acquaintance was one of the top moments of my vacation, and I have every expectation that we will have the chance again in the (near) future.

Most commonly overheard conversation of the night:
PARENT: "Oh look! There's Mario and Luigi!"
KID: *rolls eyes* "Mooooooom..." (or 'Daaaaaad') "... that's Wario and Waluigi!"
My husband made a point to "Waaaaah!" and shake his fist at every miniature Mario and Luigi he came across. Most of the kids really seemed to like it. :)
Those villainous Wario Brothers also got TONS of candy (why no, I am not ashamed to Trick-or-Treat as an adult)
We're still on the lookout for the guy who robbed the Blood Bank at Disney
My husband made me ride the scariest ride at the park... Captain Eo.
I found a possible new boyfriend; my husband thought he was a pretty cool guy, so he jumped in the picture too.
Of course we visited the shops at Hogsmeade; I was surrounded by muggles ("Whose wand is it you got again? And which one was he?")
I had butterbeer (frozen and unfrozen), real beer, and Pumpkin Juice - along with lunch at the Three Broomsticks!!! *Harry Potter nerdliness is satisfied until the movie comes out*
It was a great trip and a nice 1 year anniversary. Next year, though, we're planning a Halloween party of some kind. The new countdown begins!
