• It is Friday, and I breathe a sigh of relief because I only have one more day to go until I start working at my new location - I'm so excited!  This past week has been pretty interesting, and quite Disney filled as well.  So far I've gone to Disneyland this past Friday, Sunday, and Thursday - did I say I was going Sunday again?  Yeah, we've got canoe races again which I now LOVE even though I've only been once.

  Thursday though was the most fun.  I went to go ride Rockin' Space Mountain and Rockin' California Screamin' for the last day, RHCP @ Disneyland ... you will be missed by me!  But, I can always ride along with my iPod and recreate the experience to a certain degree.  Well that day I arranged to meet up with some people from my Disney board and had a blast!  It is so great to be at the park and have at least one person show up to keep you company.  In the morning I hung out with someone who works there on the Matterhorn and he told me all types of interesting little ... employee only secrets ... that I cannot reveal.  And after he kicked my butt on Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters I met up with someone who I've gotten together with previously ... since she was at the park with her family celebrating her husband's birthday.  We spent a good chunk of the day together until about 5pm when they had to leave and celebrate at the Blue Bayou.  At that time two other fellow Disney lovers were making their way to the park, so I spent the rest of the day with them ... and ended up leaving at around 10:30pm.  One of them was a 13 year old who was there with his family from Minnesota and they are the most Disney loving family I have ever come across.  His parents (he has a step-dad) are getting married in 8 months, and they wanted to make their vows on Disneyland soil ... so they took bits of soil from all over the park to do just that.  Plus, each room in their house is decorated to match a land or ride from Disneyland!  They were just a fantastic group of people and I enjoyed meeting them.

  Friday comes along, and my co-workers surprise me by taking me out to eat.  We ended up going to Olvera Street and eating there, I even got treated to a margarita!  Then one of them started singing that song ... "please don't go ... don't goooooo".  I felt very appreciated, and I have to admit that I loved it.  I will miss them, even though I was only with them for a few months ... but I couldn't stand that lady.  I just don't appreciate that after all this they have told me that they are finally getting rid of her ... but oh well ... a new office brings a lot of different opportunities ... and in this way I can gain better overall experience to be a valuable employee.  I just wish I could take my co-workers with me!  I will be joining them at the race track in two weeks to treat them to drinks and a race, since they are REALLY into that ... so I guess I'll still keep in touch with them.

  Another thing I'm going to go check out is an archery range in Pasadena.  See if I like it and want to get into it, I know it's an out of the blue thing ... but I figure it's free to go try it out so why not?  The way I came about this idea is through another forum I go into it.  I go there for shits and giggles because some of that stuff is over the top, but they were posting about what weapons can you obtain that don't have to be registered in case the New World Order takes over and they look through records to see what you have.  Someone started posting about bows, so I was curious if they even had a such a thing going around in the Los Angeles area, and sure enough they did.  I was surprised, but then when I saw that they have this bow named Tigress ... well that piqued my interest and I decided I'd give it a try.

  Oh, and here is a picture my friend took when we were at Disneyland this past Thursday.  It is kinda blurry because it's taken from the screens outside the ride showing the pictures for Tower Of Terror (I ADORE THAT RIDE ... and the only reason I step foot in California Adventure).  I'm in the top row ... from right to left are Alpine, Me, Ginarella's hubby, and Ginarella.  Her daughters are towards the bottom right holding their faces to their hands.  The couple holding on to each other at the end of our row ... scared.out.of.their.MINDS.  Ginarella told me that the lady was shaking when she got off.

  

  P.S.  I ADDED FRIENDS BLOCK TO MY XANGA.  SORRY FOR THE INCONVENIENCE, BUT I HAD SOME ISSUES WITH SOMEONE ... AND FIGURED OUT OF SIGHT OUT OF MIND.  THANKS!
