Ok... so I didn't post the next day like I had said but I had intended on doing so. I just became preoccupied with a hectic life. So let me catch you up:

On the 24th I was deployed to Mouse Gear. I had told Troy that he owed me big because of the frightening little boy who wanted to kill me, so he sent me to Mouse Gear. I love Mouse Gear. It's one of my favorite places to work. Most of the people that work there are great and the guests that come through are almost always in a good mood. That took up a good chunk of my day. I had come home just in time to get a shower and get dressed for Pleasure Island. It is still my Monday and Thursday night release. It feels good to be able to go out and have a great time. Not that I'm not having a good time everyday - it's just that these parks aren't my style. I prefer more a more thrilling park (like Cedar Point) but the club scene here is like no other. ~Anyway~ I get home at like 3 am and head to bed.

On the 25th I got up kinda late and rushed around to get some laundry done because I was heading out with a friend, Brian. We hung out for the rest of the day before club hopping around down town.

On the 26th Brian and I went to Universal Studios. Now that is a park! There are some serious rides there. I managed to ride The Mummy a few times. It is now one of my favorite roller coasters of all time. It's great. After we hung out there we headed over to his friends house where we hung out on the porch until me went to down town to watch the Pride Parade. Then everyone headed to a bar to get something to eat. Brian then brought me home because I had work Sunday morning.

The 27th. I was deployed to The Universe of Energy were I was a greeter for the attraction. So from 9-5 I stood outside under an umbrella and greeted people as they entered the ride. Kind of boring, yet fun. I had a blast with the guests. Every job is only what you make it. If you make it fun then it'll be fun. Besides it gave me an opportunity to meet so many people from all over the world and I was able to have a conversation with them. Not to many jobs allow you to have such interaction with so many people. Towards the end of my shift I had the chance to meet Renee, Shawn, Alyssa, and Lorette (sorry if I butchered your names). They were guests from New Jeresy. Very people. Renee is one of Disney's biggest fans so I decided to give her some trading cards that I was able to obtain through a class (the only place in the world to get them). So we made plans to meet up the next day in order to give them to her. I then came home and tried to relax for one evening but Kama called and invited me over to dinner. So I went over and had me some soul food. Thanks Kama. She's so great. I then came home and went to bed.

Which brings us to yesterday the 28th. I got up early and got ready to head to the Magi Kingdom to meet up the Renee and company. I was to meet them at The Crystal Palace where we had lunch with Pooh, Eeyore, Tigger and Piglet. After which she wanted to know if I would like to spend the day with them at Magic Kingdom. So I did. I had so much fun and Renee (who is an older lady - late 40's I think) also had a great time. She included me into their family vacation photos. lol She's so nice. When the time came for me to leave we exchanged numbers and addresses. She wants to send me copies of the photos she took. I then came home rushed to get dressed and headed to Pleasure Island. I had to get there before 11 so I could stop by Guest Relations to pick up my lost check card. I had left it at the bar on Thursday. I got a little drunk and forgot I ad opened a tab and left it with the bar tender. I made it just in time. I got my card and then headed on over to Mannequins. But this time I didn't open a tab - I didn't get anything to drink - lol. I got home around 3 and headed to bed.

So now here we are at today. Finally. I slept in a little but not much because I had plans for 11 but they were cancelled last minute. I was slightly annoyed but it gave me a chance to have some time to myself and relax. So I took 10:30-1:30 and relaxed at the pool. My back is really red. But I think it'll turn into a nice tan in a couple of days. I already had a small base tan going so it's shouldn't stay red because it doesn't feel burnt. Now if I can just get the rest of my body to darken in as much as my face and back I'd be good to go. ~Anyway~ I then got a shower and headed out to do some grocery shopping. I was starting to run a little low. After coming home from that I made myself a little something to eat, watched some TV and now here I sit. =)

So now that you're all caught up you can finish up your book. =P And feel free to stalk me anytime so you don't need to wait for me to update you. =P I promise though I will try and be more responsible with my blogging.
