so much fun!
I had so much fun today. On Thursday, I had a message that my ex-next door neighbors (who moved away a good seven or eight years ago) were in town and wanted to meet up. So today, the plans were for them to meet me at my restaurant at 4:30 when I got off work. It rained ALL day, on and off, so the park was really uncrowded. I was working from 10:30-4:30 (short shift!), but at 2, my manager came over and asked if I wanted to leave. Ha ha. So I did.
I went home, found Jessica (who had the day off), and went to Property Control (where you can buy damaged or discontinued merchandise for 75% off). I bought a travel coffee mug which had a bit of paint chipped off the bottom, and shot glasses for myself, Carolyn and Heather with our names on them. I felt bad because I couldn't find Andrea or Amy's names to make it a roommates thing. =( Sorry, girls! I tried. But anyway, after PC, I went back to MGM.
I got there at 4:20, and it started POURING. I'm talking BUCKETS of water. Right as I got there. So I waited and waited, played some arcade games (the woman who runs it gave me a handful of tokens, which was fun) and Bill and Sandy (the neighbors) arrived around 5, having gotten stuck in the downpour. We tried to go to the Prime Time Diner, but ended up at Backlot Express for burgers, then played at MGM. Tower of Terror and Rockin Roller Coaster went over well. So did Millionaire: Play It. After the park closed, we went to Downtown Disney for ice cream and shopping. I bought a visor, which I had been looking for unsuccessfully at Property Control. Anyway. Overall it was an excellent day. I missed going to Margaritaville with everyone, but I haven't seen Bill and Sandy and the kids in almost four years. I used to babysit for Michelle and Andrew back before they were in school, and now they're 10 and 12. Ahh! So that was a ton of fun. Yay! <.g>
