Being washed away
We really are being washed away. I know it rains everyday in Florida in the summer, but this is more than the 4:00 afternoon showers we were getting the first few weeks I was here. This is torrential downpours that soak you to the skin, that are accompanied by mucho thunder and lightening, and that last most of the day.
I went to Cocoa Beach this morning with Gina and her mom. We drove through one of our little downpours, but it was dry and relatively sunny at the beach. We got to play in the water for about an hour before the rain caught up with us, then followed us all the way home and is currently trying to replenish our previously shrinking pond/lake in one afternoon.
Yesterday I worked at the Science Center again. It was a very pleasant day, I must say. I worked on putting together a brochure. I finished that one and sent it to Graphics to be made up, and brought the information home to do one for the youth program. Yay! This is experience I can definitely use. After that, I met up with Bill and Sandy, Michelle and Andrew (who are 12 and 10, respectively). We ate at Planet Hollywood (where I get a 30% discount! Bonus!), then went to DisneyQuest. That was a good time. Good time. Michelle and I made two rollercoasters on Cyber Space Mountain. The first one was only rated a 3 and was kind of borning. We were like "that's it?" So we went back and made another, which was a 5 (out of 5), and which every piece of the track took us either upside down or sideways. That was fun. Lol. We were going to make a song in the Music Maker thingy, but the line was too long, and we kept trying to get into a "class" that teaches you how to draw the characters, but we kept getting there just a minute too late. We got to do most everything we wanted to, though, before they closed. And that's the last time I'll see Michelle and Andrew before they go home. Sadness! I'm so glad I got to see them as much as I did. I miss living next door to them!
Tonight I'm maybe going to dinner with Heather, or Joaquin is maybe making dinner for us, or I'm maybe going to the Ale House with Diana from work, or I'm maybe going to see a movie with Gina. I can do two of the above. Ale House and movie would be later, so I can do one of the other, and obviously I can only have dinner once. Heehee. But those are the plans, and then back to work tomorrow. Woohoo!
