Fun Fun Funnel

I opened and trained at the Funnel Cakes stand yesterday. A funnel cake is like a fried waffle or Indian Fry Bread (but Indian Fry Bread is way better). Gail was the trainer for Melissa and I (Melissa was in the initial group of the girls I work with and we get along great!) Gail was fine not as exciting or helpful as Marcelo but funnel was easy so no big. We also worked with a girl named Yamila (Juh-Me-La) or Mila for short...she was from Argentina and is leaving to go back in two weeks. :( she was great but the poor thing burnt her hand with the hot grease from the fryer.

In the afternoon we switched trainers to Linda (Gail had to go do GT (general teller)). Linda is a very large black woman who is hilarious!!! We were laughing the rest of the time and the time went so much faster once she came. She even had the grand idea of putting an ice cube in the middle of a funnel cake...big mistake...oil was flying everywhere...and if I wasn't already scared of fryers from the burn scar I have on my arm...that pretty much sealed the deal.

My friend Natalie gave us a ride home which was such a nice break from taking the bus. We stopped at Welcome Night and got free pizza and went home...Katie and I watched a movie and fall asleep pretty early. I don't really know what time it was but we had a huge thunder and lightning storm in the middle of the night...I don't know if I have seen rain come down that hard. It rivaled the thunder in sound. There was one crack of thunder that Katie couldn't believe it was thunder so she blamed it on them emptying our recycling (like it was a bunch of glass bottles crashing together).

I have the day off today...don't know what I will do yet.
