yes hi hello stopping by to say I am still alive but barely

holidays at Disney are no joke

working six days a week. many of the hours. much tired. wow.

Things I have experienced in the past few weeks:

-got pushed right in the firearm by a small child

-emergency stopped my vehicle during three different shows because adults think it’s cool to stand up and lean over the side to take pictures

-parking for two weeks at the motherfucking ESPN complex and taking the bus to the park is a thing. oh, and none of the morons working the parking lot work for Disney so it’s a free for all. (seriously, they forgot to leave a lane for cars to exit)

-the park opens at 8 every day, except for the one day it opened at 7

-a lady thought Indiana Jones was the Ten Commandments

-a pigeon got stuck inside the queue and couldn’t get out so it just sat there pooping

-i passed out in the tree during candlelight and had to awkwardly get off the stage

-i then found out the next day I have the flu and that’s why I fainted

-lost my voice completely and had to squawk and cough through my shows

-a guest had a temper tantrum because they were 45 minutes early for their fastpass BUT THEY KNEW IT WAS AS EIGHT BECAUSE THEY WENT TO THE OSBORNE LIGHTS FIRST (no I don’t understand that logic either)

-and a guy got arrested for punching a stormtrooper god bless and merry christmas

I’m gettin’ nothin’ for Christmas,
Squid and Beans are so mad,
I’m gettin’ nothin’ for Christmas,
‘cause I’ve been nothin’ but bad

On the twelfth day of Christmas, Robert Osborne gave to me:
Twelve handpacks running
Eleven rotations pulling
Ten vehicles dying
Nine APs shouting
Eight characters shooting
Seven shifts extending
Six positions dropping
Five “is this a ride?"s
Four tour guide call outs
Three flubbed lines
Two show requests
And a Robert Osborne on every screen!

Merry Christmas from the Great Movie Ride! (at The Great Movie Ride)

in honor of Star Tours’s 25th anniversary, I shall now share my favorite Star Tours story.

It’s a classic.

So the gate agent was checking the cabin and whatnot, “pull on the yellow strap,” all that jazz, and a lady had her backpack on, and the gate agent was like “ma’am, your bag has to go under your seat.”

And the woman looked confused and horrified, and said “baby go under seat?”

And lo and behold, she take the backpack off and turns it around…

AND THERE IS A BABY.

Baby did not go under seat. Baby and mother were hastily escorted out for a rider swap.

But now it is a custom amongst us spaceport agents to yell “baby under seat?” at each other. It’s like our traditional greeting. To which the proper reply is “Ehhh, together, family!”

Reblogging because it’s our 26th anniversary, and also because I think the new movie is coming out? Maybe. I might have seen something about a new Star Wars.

New costumes in the #greatmovieride queue!! Fiona (Cyd Charisse) from Brigadoon, Lina Lamont (Jean Hagen) from Singin’ in the Rain, Amanda (Katherine Hepburn) from Adam’s Rib, and assorted costumes from Star Trek: The Motion Picture. #disneyshollywoodstudios (at The Great Movie Ride)

Going to see Christmas lights were definitely not on my agenda for the day (I’m honestly not sure how I feel about the holidays anymore) but I went, and I can say that I got to be there for the very last cast preview, but most importantly I got to see so many people who were genuinely happy to see me and gave me hugs and let me cry on their shoulders…and that’s what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown.
