Hi my name is Kate today and if you are a nine year old boy with a frappucino who won’t move away from the counter I might just nudge you out of my way because I DESERVE COFFEE. (at The Trolley Car Café)

I would like to hunt down the person who authorized having the floors of the gmr vehicles waxed SO I CAN PUNCH THEM IN THE NOSE.

PLEASE SEND HELP #greatmovieride #slowmovingtramride #extremelyslowtoday (at The Great Movie Ride)

“Mr. Donut, you’re my only friend.” It’s a tough day, y’all. I lost my ID, I only brought food I’m allergic to, I’m covered in bug bites, my kitten is sick and home alone while I work 12 hours…but things will be okay. (PC: Orion who doesn’t have an Instagram) (at The Great Movie Ride)

A grown ass man walks up to me with a big smile.

Man: “Eh, peepee?”

I stare at him, not entirely sure what’s going on.

Man: (still beaming) “Peepee!”

Me: “…are…are you looking for the bathroom?”

Man: “Yes, the bathroom!”

Song and Elsa are on our way to fireworks!! #songneedsaninsta (at Disney’s Hollywood Studios)

Welcome back, #sww. I’m celebrating your return with thirteen hours of tours into the movies and getting yelled at during fireworks. At least I’m halfway through the day! (And tomorrow is Princess Day with @bri_ecrit so I have that to look forward too.) #starwarsweekends2015 (at Hollywood Boulevard, Hollywood Studios, WDW)

I am in day two of a migraine.

It is a 13 hour day.

It’s the first day of Star Wars Weekends.

I have to work fireworks tonight.

Someone please send caffeine. Or a time turner.

(I will also accept sappy fluffy drabbles because those always cheer me up.)

Also can we talk about how I had to train and assess on the new GMR script two days ago and then go right back to the old one, but I have to be ready to go on the new one?

I’m going to die.

CAITLIN SMASH. (it’s been a day, y’all. I had to Hulk out.) #hashtagstruggletram #greatmovieride (at The Great Movie Ride)

Happy 26th birthday to my favorite park and my favorite ride! Great Movie Ride scared the daylights out of me when I was five and became my new home when I was eighteen. Over the years I’ve bounced around Studios (Beauty and the Beast, Fantasmic, the Pixar parade, the HSM3 pep rally, Star Tours, the Frozen processional) but Studios will always hold a special place in my heart no matter where I roam. And of course, once a Movie Rider always a Movie Rider! (at The Great Movie Ride)
