Guys. Guys. We survived today. We’re all terribly slap happy. @flavurz_ov_rahn is pleased that he can squish poor @lcsence into the window. My accent is now so thick you can cut it with a knife. Leah and I can’t stop laughing about Babyhands McGee the Munchkin. And Ronnie has the quote of the night: “I just saw a man’s little green panties. I need to go home.” #slowmovingtramfam (at The Great Movie Ride)

notes from a 14 hour day

Seven hours down.

Seven shows completed.

I had to explain to a lady that the hat didn’t exist anymore, to which she responded “but my family told me to meet them there.”

I have eaten a hot pocket and a can of pineapple.

One of the munchkins has two tiny right hands instead of a right and a left and I can’t stop laughing.

I really want cheese fries.

also an elderly character attendant is sitting across the room from me reading a trashy romance novel.

update: I have five hours and fifteen minutes left

I am on show #9.

Greg farts like a dump truck and I got stuck with him at casting.

I tried eating healthy yogurt and it had the consistency of rubber cement so I sulked and ate a bag of Cadbury mini eggs instead.

I have received two compliments for being adorable and sounding like Minnie Mouse.

Leah and I can’t stop laughing about Dooneese Munchkin.

I am now Ronnie’s bubbe.

update again:

I have an hour and fifteen minutes left. I can do this.

I’m finishing out the night at front usher (the same place I started at 8 am!) so I filled my water bottle with an energy drink.

I turned on the work lights at casting instead of opening the doors.

I only did thirteen shows, so I didn’t break my record. 😦

My feet are literally swelling into my shoes.

I CAN DO THIS. I THINK.

Today is special…today I celebrate my first full year as a Movie Rider!! And I’m celebrating with a glorious 13.5 hour shift with my fantastic GMR family. #onceamovierider #slowmovingtramride #slowmovingtramfam #disneycastmember #greatmovieride #mediatourguide (at The Great Movie Ride)

Today is an almost 14 hour day. I have a bad case of Hermione hair (first year book version), I don’t have nearly enough coffee, I forgot my phone charger, and I am literally running holes into my shoes, but I made track talk again yesterday…and my name was spelled right!! #disneycastmember (at The Great Movie Ride)

Snuck out on my 30 to get caffeine, since I extended into a 12 hour shift. And I’m totally incognito, right? Because those are definitely not the cuffs of my GMR shirt sticking out. Definitely. #tourguideindisguise (at The Trolley Car Café)
