Postcard addendum

Met a gaggle of kids today. Started out with my asking one little boy if he was ok. Looked hot and tired. Suddenly discovered his family was all at the surrounding tables. It was his birthday, he's turning 8. Suddenly sister, cousin, and cousin's little brother appear, all chatting about Tower of Terror. Seems these kids from Alabama LOVE this right. Birthday boy said he'd do/give anything for Tower of Terror to be in his backyard. Most of family have ridden the right quite a few times. Little brother of cousin has only ridden once? Not sure how many kids were there total - gaggle of kids really. But really fun to talk with them, really fun to hear how they love they ride, really fun to watch/listen to them talk all at once.

Really should've given them the Mickey stickers Lucie had given me the day before x.x

Just had to mention them though. They were a great (big) family ^-^

Quest for Moroccan lamb postcard

Currently excited over thinking that Dustin Hoffman was Captain Hook. Worked today. Mostly bussing. Really hot. Met two British women who complained about the food. Said they didn't get as many fries as Americans (Maybe bigger portions? they wondered) and that hamburgers were terrible. Had gotten better burgers at an English fair. Felt really bad. Tried to make it up to them, they didn't want anything. Acknowledged that it wasn't my fault though. Reported it to manager. Hope everything's better. Volunteered for bussing again after 15 minute break. Probably not the best idea. Really, really hot outside. New menu item - apple cinnamon pretzels. Really wanted one, didn't get the chance to. Got to bumpout 15 minutes after was supposed to. Debated back and forth regarding funnel cake at American Pavillion. Decided to go to Epcot. Pleasantly surprised to see Spaceship Earth still going after 7pm. Picture still crappy, but not as much. Hand on my glasses in this one. Wandered around World Showcase seeking tea store was told about yesterday. Talked to Mom about food places. Went to France. Got HUGE chocolate chip cookie. Amazingly delicious. Was going to get lamb at Morocco, but not for $10. Got Bratwurst, sourkraut, and a roll at Germany instead. Very good ^-^ Watched Illuminations from Germany. Saw new lazer effect I'd never seen before. Wandered back, taking camera phone photos and sending them to Mom. Arrived at apartment. Watched half of Heathers. Need to watch rest. 10 hour workday tomorrow. Definitely need to update.

Am being faced with notion of my future and life after Disney. It's weird. Always wanted to work for Disney. Never really thought I'd be working for Disney and want another job. I'm working for Disney - now what? Weird.

Really should go try that Moroccan lamb.
