HUMAN CENTIPEDE

Hello again,

So let me pick up where I left off on Sunday. It was Halloween. The real Halloween, aka October 31st, 2010, a day that I hope never to forget. The day started off ok, I wrote to you kids, cleaned, went to work. Work just wasn't going the way I wanted and I was left with a sour feeling. But luckily, a guest made a magical moment. Now many of you may or may not find this funny, but I was fortunate enough to see the humor in the situation. After the second parade, my fellow cast members and I were pulling the station and rope cart backstage, when we noticed a foul smell. Some cast member made a rude comment about it smelling like human waste, and that's when we looked down. There was in fact a trail of human feces leading to the women's bathroom. An extra who had picked up the shift hadn't looked down quite in time and stepped in it. Now, many of you may be thinking that poor woman how terrible. Yes, I'm sure it was a tragic night for her. But all I could think was "well I guess I'm not having that shitty of a night." Sorry about the vulgarity of this story, I just thought it was entertaining that someone pooed on the floor of the Magic Kingdom.

After the excitement of Halloween, it was Monday (November 1st) and the last night to celebrate Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. But since I didn't work until 5:45pm, I went to the Magic Kingdom to play like a guest. I went with Amanda and Brittany and once there we met up with Zack and Catharine. Unlike most times when we enter either through the tunnel or main entrance, this time we entered through Toon Town and took the train to Main Street. On Main Street, Amanda's dreams came true as she met Snow White. Then we did the original thing and got our picture taken in front of the castle. After that I went and got some Christmas presents for folks in Liberty Square and Frontierland. Once we finished some shopping, we went on the Boat Landing.

Then like every other guest in the park, we got behind those white ropes and watched the 3 o'clock Celebrate a Dream Come True parade, because I clearly don't see it enough! Mostly we watched it because Josh and Ashley were the parade escorts and we wanted to get pictures of them hard at work. From there, we got a funnel cake at Sleepy Hollow, then marched over to Tomorrowland, so Amanda could get her ruben hot-dog. After everyone was done eating, we went to Fantasyland in hopes of meeting Rapunzel and Flynn Rider. Feeling like we'd met royalty, we departed their meet-and-greet area and went to It's A Small World. Boy-oh-boy, does that song get stuck in your head! By the time we were done with everything, it was time was for work.

 After work, PAC decided to have a celebration at Buffalo Wild Wings as a final salute to Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween party. So most of us went wearing either our bats or our bat shirts. It was a great night.

Yesterday was Tuesday (11/2/10) and I got up with the intent of going with Dakotah to do Characters in Flight at Downtown Disney. Alas, it was stormy out, so for safety reasons they were not going to let us ride in a hot air balloon. Sigh. Instead, we walked around Downtown Disney and then went to Joanne fabrics to look at discounted Halloween stuff. There I bought some cinnamon-scented pine cones to get myself into the holiday season cheer. And straight from there, it was class time. I seriously love that class. This week we talked about how you should Measure Twice and Cut Once. After class, I went home and went grocery shopping. The original plan was to make sushi, but silly us Target does not sell the supplies for that endeavor, so we got stuff to make pizza instead! It was a tomato basil pizza and it was delectable! And while we ate the pizza, Gracie came over and we watched a movie I've been waiting to see since August: The Human Centipede. A movie about a mad-surgeon whose dream is to make three people one. It was disgusting, but also really entertaining. And that is how I ended my night!
