Oh my goodness. Time is going by so fast and again, blogging is the first thing I forget to keep up with. So now I have pretty much no idea what I've done since July 8th, which is probably not a surprise since that was 20 days ago. But here goes a try at remembering the last 20 days...
July 8th:
Day Off
July 9th:
Didn't work til 3:28, so went swimming all morning and then headed off to epcot to work Mickey PM Character Spot. It was a good night, met some new people that i've seen a lot since then, Claire and Michelle (minnie and munk) especially. We had fun in the break room, character spot is a bit wierd, you have to take a van to the mouth of epcot's very deserted tunnel, which only goes under Spaceship Earth. Character spot has two seperate offset rooms, one with a TV couches and powerade which is a good 5 minute walk from the room where we leave our costumes and where the door on set is. C-Spot is also kinda high tech, with hangers for our costumes that air them out. The hanger has fans in the shoulders. it is strange. C-spot also has lights hidden above the windows in front of the set that go on when our back to back is ready to go on set. kinda smart, makes 5 minute warnings and such unnecessary. In the break room we watched "hunt for red october". I was supposed to meet giuli and sam after work to go see fantasmic, but ended up calling that off because giuli had a migraine, turns out this was good, since i got force extended after our captain forgot to close our line and we got offset almost 15 mins late. Bussed home with Michelle and her friend dustin, who worked in Canada and has now gone home to vancouver.
July 10th:
Up super early, caught the 5:30 am bus to MK with Michelle, who was a munk in townsquare while I was daisy in town square. We grabbed breakfast and then clocked in and pulled our costumes, then a bitchy duty lady got mad at us for checking in 2 mins late, even though we clocked in on time... so then we headed back to my home, town square's break room. I pretty much live there, not even exaggerating. I love it though, the people are hilarious. The breakroom is used by the attendants and characters for family fun day parade as well, so there are always lots of people to talk to. We watched willy wonka and the chocolate factory and talked to Rob, a hilarious munk and very gay guy who has worked at disney for years and years, Brittany, a cp attendant with a wicked sense of humor, Rob, an attendant cp from england who knows tiddelypom, another character who i have never actually met in person, Eileen, an older lady attendant who doesnt say much in the breakroom but when she does look up to contribute to the often inappropriate conversation always says something really wry and sarcastic. Giuli and Hannah visited me at work and met miss daisy, then we went character hunting (i think. This might actually have been on a different date, but it definately happened at somepoint in the last 20 days). We saw the 3:00 parade and then met hook and smee, timon and rafiki and then went home and went to walmart to buy food for our dinner party the next night.
July 11th:
My first time doing dining! I worked Lilo at polynesian, which I've done a lot since. It meant an early morning, a 5:30 am bus and a 6:18 clock in time. the people are funny, except the captain, daniel, who is a bit power happy but we all kinda ignore him. we get fed at poly, and the breakfast is yummmmmmy. 3 sets, pretty easy but I HATE lilo's costume. Too many snaps and layers of gloves and wierd boots and hevy head with almost no vision. And on top of that lilo isn't that fun. She is just kinda there. lame. so then i was done at 12:42, so I headed home and had a bit of a nap, then Giuli and Hannah came over and we made waaaaay too much pasta and alfredo sauce, ceasar salad and garlic bread. Tres yummy. Then we had smoothies and alison came over. And then I kicked them all out at about 11 cuz I had to wake up and go to poly again early the next morning.
July 12th: Lilo at poly again, but I have no idea what I did after my shift ended at noon...
July 13th: Daisy town square. I got there early to work on giving away my shifts while my family was here, but then got distracted and rememberedto check in but forgot to clock in. oops. Met liz, who i've worked with a lot since and gives me rides home :) dont know what I did after work...
July 14th:
Day Off, cast connection, company d, and the pool.

Hannah and Giuli met me at the electric umbrella and we explored epcot, ate dinner in england (flashing ice cube!) met jasmine and genie in morocco, saw acrobats in china, bought bread, berets and perfume in france, met tigger and friends in england, rode space ship earth and then rode the monorail with some drunk businessmen. headed to walgreens and bought candy and treats for movie night.

Then we met up with hannah, picked up our pay cheques, ate sub way and chatted with theo in the mouseketeria and went on the guest bus to the boardwalk, attempted to check in for my parents but didnt wanna pay the balance of the hotel, so went over to Yacht and beach, found sam at the marina and got wrist bands for the amazing pool. swam for a couple of hours then it started to rain so we went to beaches and cream for amazing ice cream sundays. then went over to boardwalk and giuli started to french braid my hair and my fam arrived! we went down to our room and then hannah and giuli left, we went to espn for dinner and then for a swim at yacht and beach.

The food was good, buffet style, and we met prince charming, cindy, and, the stars of the night, the Tremaines. Oh my goodness, they were HILARIOUS! stealing boyfriends, screaming at each other, yelling things like 'spin me' and 'cinderella, clean that up' and just completely stealing the show. It was terrific. From there we went to Hollywood studios and mom, olivia, barbara and I rode rockin roller coaster, and then all of us did midway mania before heading home and to sleep.

July 26th:
Daisy Town square, and then i saw daisys everywhere. First i got attacked by ducks at the guest bus stop, then the bus drivers name was daisy, then I saw a daisy fresh maid service van, then i went to downtown disney with mom and livvy and one of the shop clerks name was daisy! After down town we took a taxi to my apt and i showed them around, packed a suitcase with a bunch of stuff i dont need here and said goodbye to my fam for 12 more days. and then i went to sleep cuz i was exhausted.
July 27th: Daisy Town square, liz and michelle were both there, along with erwin and a whiny horace horsecollar who whined her way into a costume disapproval. It was a fun day, we watched pretty woman, used up my dining plan by getting 5 meals at caseys and eating that in addition to more xmas in july leftovers. Brandy was our captain, and she is hilarious. We made plans for all of us to go to see dark knight in the pm, but I ended up not going because i wanted to use up table service and snacks and so after liz gave me a ride home Giuli and i headed to hollywood and vine and ate way too much, then went to sweet spells, a bakery and candy shop and bought 15 snacks: 2 things of cotton candy, 3 things of popcorn, a candy apple, a brownie, a nemo cookie, a dory cookie, 2 candy coated marshmellows, 2 peanut butter cups, a piece of fudge and a bottle of water. Good times. We came home, went to hannahs apt, went to walgreens, went to giulis apt, went to alicons apt, went to my apt and predrank, and then went to house of blues. It was so cool inside! It is two floors and lights and people and just a really good atmosphere. I liked it way better than hull clubs, less grinding more talking. Us 4 got hit on constantly, it was kinda hilarious. Hannah lmost got picked up by a girl, and giuli's life with a guy was recited to her-- how many kids, where they would get married, when they were getting divorced... apparently the divorce was my fault, cuz i was the guys mistress... it was a really fun night just laughing at pick up lines and dancing. One guy from mexico predicted that we knew each other because we had similar facial expressions. we found his reasoning pretty strange-- obvi we knew each other since we were all chatting all night!! One guy called chris just laughed at all his friends attempts at picking us up and then asked us what the lamest one was. turns out he had just got home from vancouver, where alison is from, so they had a chat about the island. and then we danced some more and headed over to the bus stop. The bus was full so we took a taxi back, and went to sleep.
