Insert Clever Title Here

Just kidding...I just have no clever title for today. In fact I'm not sure I have anything clever to write about even.

So this particular post has been in progress for days. I just keep opening it up and then getting sidetracked or just can't think of anything to write.

Wednesday Sept. 1
Today was a day off for me so I went shopping :) I had to get a present for the twinners for their birthday next week. I thought that it would be super easy to find a present for them at disney, but it was surprisingly difficult. I guess because I was under money constraint and I had to keep in mind that I will have to ship their presents home. Hopefully I found things that they will love! Then I went to Barnes & Noble because I was going to pick up a copy of Catching Fire which came out yesterday. If you don't know, its the sequel to the Hunger Games. These books are very fabulous! However while I was there I couldn't comvince myself to buy anything. The main reason is that I have so many books that I brought to read while I'm here that I couldn't justify buying a book that I have already read. (Yes I have already read Catching Fire even though it just came out because I got to read the Advanced Reader Copy when I worked at Barnes & Noble) So I left Barnes & Noble without buying anything! Quite a feat for me! :) And then I came home and just vegged for a while until my roommates Amanda and Lauren came home and invited me to go to the cast preview of Mickey's Boo To You Parade. It was a lot of fun because we got to watch the parade at night with a whole bunch of other Disney nuts in the Magic Kingdom after hours! And the parade is awesome! There are these cool gravedigger dancers that were so creepy looking and they danced with shovels and when they hit the shovels on the asphalt it created sparks! And there were pirates and villains and all sorts of creepy people! If you get a chance you should see this parade! Oh and there is a headless horseman who rides in front of the parade! So cool! So family, you need to come down in October to watch it!

Thursday Sept. 2nd
Today Jessica and I had a day off together for the first time since we started working! We woke up kinda early...ok not early but at like 8 but we got home after 1 a.m. because of the parade preview last night! So we went to Animal Kingdom first because Jessica has never been there before. We ran over to Everest first and there was no line at all! Then we went over to Dinosaur! Jessica screamed and it was quite funny! lol! Then we went on Kilimanjaro Safaris. There was a super cute giraffe that just stood by the road and practically posed for us! Then it was off to meet our new friend Mary who was "hanging out" with Daisy at Camp Minnie Mickey. It was so fun to see her working! Then we went to Blizzard Beach! It was like a bigger and more fun Seven Peaks! I quite enjoyed it. Then we went to Magic Kingdom. It seems that we always end up there! But I like that place so I'm not complaining. We ate at Tony's restaurant and it was quite delicious. And then it was home to bed :)

Today!
Today was a work day...it was actually a long work day! I had to be there at 8 am. Then when I got there one of the coordinators asked me why I hadn't gotten there at 7. I said because nobody asked me to come in early and the schedule said 8. She was a little bit confused I think, but I didn't get in trouble which was good! I had to go to this class today too at 3, and I got payed to go! yay! It was called I can make a difference too! And we learned more about "The Basics" which are basically Disney's behavior expectations for Cast Members. It was actually quite fun, but I had already learned most of it in other classes. I did learn that when you leave a park and re-enter the same or a different park in that same day it doesn't take your fingerprint, which it what I thought they did, but they actually take a bone and shape structure profile of your finger, so essentially a picture of your finger. Interesting huh? My one co-worker said that sometimes when she has shorter fingernails it doesn't want to accept her finger. (she has acrylic nails and they are pretty long). Then I got to go home instead of going back to work! yay! So now here I am at home and after being lazy I got productive, aren't you proud Mom? I am doing laundry while blogging and cleaning my bathroom! yay for a hair-free floor! The only sucky thing is paying to wash my clothes. As if I don't hate doing laundry enough! ;) now I believe I am up to speed! Tomorrow I have a long shift (11:30 to 9 pm, blah!) but its cool because I'll have one hour of overtime!

I am going to head to bed now because I am tired! I hope everyone has a Magical Day! I love you and I miss you!
