so instead of going to Sabina-Elease's party, I gave into my lazyness and stayed home. Whoops.

for the first time...ever, really.

here's a shoutout to favorite store in the form of oldified pictures of my dad dressed up as a ship's captain.

well, last night was a great success, i feel! it's true, only 3 or 4 items got auctioned, and the $95 cufflinks were stolen from the raffle prize table, but a lot of people came out, and it was a great time! My parents came and so did sylvie and sean and it was just super fun, and hilarious.

My mom and I were talking about my habit that looks remarkably like ADD of just talking about shit forever. A stream of consciousness that is constantly changing and nuts, but I usually never lose track of what I was talking about originally (I use the word usually very loosely here). 

Hillary: i'm catching up on favourite shoppe!

Auto response from Sylvie: ?

Sylvie: wheeee!

Hillary: that's a nickname for it that i just came up with

Sylvie: hee hee

Hillary: omg so you have to come to the Film Art Function which is the gala benefit for which i am producing, editing, and also apparently writing, shooting and acting in, a short film

Yeah, so that pretty much sums it up. I mean, I'm not the only one writing it, obviously, or the only one shooting it. But yes basically, this is a sweet deal!

still no word from Tom Stamper vis a vis video tech posish in Disney World

BUT i did get word from the DVC* people, saying that I'm still in consideration for the openings that we have so that's good stuff

also, that's what she said...i'm just sayin'

*The Disney Vacation Club is Disney's "best-kept secret," of course! It is a fabulously expensive vacation time share experience that is obviously the balls because sales are rising exponentially. Everyone wants this shit. They're building tons of new condos and rooms for it. Anyways. The position is working in a call center, making reservations at these bombastic rooms and restaurants, etc. Yeah, it's lame, I know, but it starts at $9 an hour, I get to go to disneyworld all the time for free, I get health benefits (which i need when my COBRA kai dies, until grad schoolings), and most importantly, i get to be with DYLAN ALL THE TIME! ooh! sorry, got a little excited

yeah, so this morning sucked...but it's 12:06 now, so it's all over!

so these two dudes at work played a trick on me today in which one called launch base, telling the other one to call me at standby greeter and tell me that the manager had extended me to midnight, and sometimes they do that without asking...and i believed him...because i'm dumb. oops.

needless to say, i did not have to stay for t and a (test and adjust...but also tits and ass...you can't have rock n' rollercoaster without tits and ass, frankly) which wasn't even happening tonight, let alone until midnight. extension from 1:45 to midnight. how could i possibly have fallen for that. i'm a silly willy nilly, that's why.

i really hope my roommate isn't mad at me...

i would be most sad about this...

i also want to hang out with dylan...like, a lot...

he's adorable...

i think i took someone out on a date on Halloween, but i'm not sure still...

considering the fact that i've never been on an actual date in my entire life...

i don't know what's going on.

i got my Family Holiday Celebration package in the mail, finally! sweet deals all around on food and drink, and also merriment throughout the magical world of disney...i also scored Coronado Springs at $58 a night for when Dr. Deb is visiting in december...

speaking of which, the Doctors Lavin are gonna be here on THURSDAY! i'm totally stoked...i did a little around the world fooding last night to get ready for this weekend....

Peru - Arroz con Pato - a wild rice with peas and carrots with roasted duck. The duck was splendid, quite tender with a little kick to it. The rice was crunchy and i don't know if that was on purpose, or because it was undercooked. No matter...it added a nice texture to the dish ;)

New Zealand - Lamb Slider - the roll it was on was phenomenal! A little crusty on the outside, and soft and slightly sweet on the inside. The lamb was done to perfection, and the mustard sauce had a nice little zing to it.

France - Escargots Persillade en Brioche and Quiche au Fromage de Chevre - HOLY BALLS! the snails just tasted like straight up garlic flavored butter in a delicious little bread bowl, holy crap they were good. The quiche was smooth with a slight bite to it from the tangy cheese, and the sweet, chewy sundried tomatoes. The crust was excellent.

Japan - Crispy Sukiyaki Beef Roll - very very good. the crispiness added good texture and the sauce was sweet and slightly spicy. excellent.

Poland - Kielbasa and Potato Pierogies - so good! the kielbasa was spicy and juicy, and the pierogies were soft and smooth with a slightly crisped envelope. yummers.

Turkey - Manti with Yogurt Sauce - really great....a ground beef ravioli with a smooth yogurt and paprika sauce...the yogurt sauce was almost like a sour cream, and the paprika added a nice kick. the ravioli itself was nice and moist, and yummers!

China - Pork Pot Stickers - wow! these were awesome. they were sweet and tangy, and perfectly fried yet also soft on the outside. definitely a more than one time deal!

I rode a bike today for the first time in who knows? 10? 12 years? I don't know! it was awesome.

i worked Fantasmic! today for the first time in like 5 weeks...it was alright, it's just hurtful on the body sometimes oy! my knees! i'm not gonna squat during parade anymore like we're supposed to, gourd forbid i have to do it again ;) anyways...

my assessment for Rock N' Roller Coaster is tomorrow...at 8 am...oy...i have to remember to buy an enteman's crumb cake for my assessor...hardee har har
