Gawrsh i'm so full...i just had a leisurely meal at Macaroni Grill at the airport, because my plane is an hour and 20 minutes delayed...i failed to call to find this out, so i'm stuck here basically. but a delish meal it was. parmesean crusted artichokes, lasagna and a bellini...and now i only have 50 minutes to wait until i board...yippeeeeeeeeee :-P

so it's been an eventful couple of days...i started training for
Rock N' Rollercoaster
which is pretty much the coolest....as you can imagine, there is a lot of button pushing, which i already got to do all by myself! i launched and unloaded a million limos! AND i experienced the 7 am opening process, which includes walking around the building checking mechanical and safety type things AND riding the ride with the lights on! bam! turns out, the loop-the-loop is actually this crazy double loopy deal thing, not quite a corkscrew or barrel roll, but like an unwound and then wound again loop...it's pretty sweet, but hard to realize in the dark....so yeah that was pretty fackin' sweet. the day goes by quickly, because it's quite fast paced (unless of course, you go down....which you do...a lot). on my first day, they had their first E-Stop/Evac in like a month. Some kid and squirmed his arms into the middle of the harness and whoever was at launch base* pushed the Emergency Stop button, stopping all movement in the ride on a dime. The limo had made it as far as the first upside down (we don't know if it got up at all) but it was stopped right in front of the loop, so it was either just in time, or it had stopped on the loop, and slid backwards...GLOYVEN! needless to say, guests had to be evacuated and it was pretty sweet. i'm really excited. i even did grouping ("party of 3? rows 1 and 2, single rider in row 2") on my own, which was easier than i would think in some respects, but also harder than i would think in others

so my studio news debut is occurring on a loop as we speak all over the MGM Studios property...it looks alright i guess...i'm the only host ever it seems that knows how to smile. hilarious. i'm definitely going to do it again. i got a sweet pin AND a keychain...BONES!

bah, what a long delay! i'm going to have to take a cab once i get to D.C.....lame sauce!

so i had a supremely hillary moment today...my unique brand of girly boyishness shone through in one glorious telling of the "this guy!" joke to my manager Jay, my manager-in-training (Jedi Master) Danny Kelly, and the cast services  manager, David, that i've been talking to, and it was super awkward and HILARIOUS! i'm totally going to be fired for inappropriate jokery but it was just too good! but David so totally asked for it...his face turned bright red and they all sat with their mouths hanging open for a wee bit after that...probably the cutest thing ever! i loved it.

i do have a very unique boyishness about me in many of my actions, which was totally acceptable or at least not uncommon where i have lived and worked before, but now it stands out a bit more...no wonder i haven't hooked up with any dudes yet down here...none of them are used to my uniquity (haha i love that "word")...anyways, it's a long way from the androgyny that ran rampant at vassar...i might have to work on my girliness if i want to get boned down here....haha see, there i go again.

i think the boys at work were probably impressed with the balls i had to tell that joke....but also totally frightened...they looked like they'd seen a ghost! it was amazing.

speaking of ghosts, halloween horror nights was SO CROWDED last night holy shit...johanna and i went on MIB (wracked up a sweet 218,000 pizzoints) and just got drunk and watched all of the high schoolers get scared by the chainsaw men... and this is probably one of my favorite pictures ever

Fuck You, E.T.
