Poison

Hello to all of my adoring fans...sorry that I have no posted this week...somehow each night when I came home I was at a loss for words. So here is a brief update.
Although I have only had to work in funnel one day this week I was a breaker several times and had to do breaks in there...I begged for a little vacation time from funnel, we will see if it is granted in the coming weeks.

It has finally started to get nice here. I am even going to venture out and wear shorts to work today! It will be a first and I am a little nervous about it but it is supposed to be 70 degrees today so I am keeping my fingers crossed that the predicted 0% chance of rain holds true.

ESPN put it nicely when they titled there article Duke destroys UNC...unfortunately I fell asleep at halftime and missed the second half. But none the less I am quite pleased. The Zags play in the WCC tourney in Vegas this weekend so everyone better be rooting for them! I know my mom will...you can find some nice Matt Bouldin video posts on her facebook wall...good thing my dad doesn't have a facebook or he would be rolling his eyes. Secretly I think he just wishes he had those curly locks...because let's face it 'curls get the girls' i.e Chris Ruckel :)

I went to TGI Fridays with some friends from work on Friday night..it was 1:00 AM when we were leaving and some song came on...well all of my black friends were jumping and screaming and doing the same dance...I didn't know what had hit me...after they were finished with their hoopla, I asked what they were doing. Well Poison was the song and the dance goes with it. It came about "back when we weren't treated right" according to Jaimee...so there you have it. It was crazy.

I think tomorrow Katie and I are gonna try to go to Typhoon Lagoon and soak up some rays...we were supposed to only get in free until February 27th but they extended it until June!!! Yay!

The Ma and Pa come on Thursday and I am so excited!!!

Off to work out not I will try to be better about posting this week.

Splash Mountain

Splash Mountain has been closed since Katie and I got here. They have been doing some refurbishments and according to the rumor mill extended the drop. Now I don't know whether or not that is true but Splash Mountain opened up again on Sunday and Katie and I had yesterday off so we decided we HAD TO TRY IT!!! I remember being scared to go on it when I was little but liking it afterward.


Katie was eager before we got on!


We decided to wait in the standby line instead of fast-pass because we figured it we would get to go on it sooner! Here is Brer sign of some of the animals we saw on the ride.


Not quite as eager after the big drop because we all got soaked!


Katie's friend Edmar came with us and here we are going through the last part of the ride.


Katie and I happily riding through the inside of the mountain.


We also had time to ride Big Thunder Mountain...one of our favorites!


And I finally got to ride Winnie The Pooh's Adventure Ride in my very own Honey Pot! Here is Christopher Robin greeting us before the ride.



So Sunday on Splash Mountain they had to evacuate the whole ride because something went wrong. My friend Ola was on it that day and she said she waited almost an hour before she was able to get off the ride. We also got stopped on the ride but only briefly.

House of Blues (HOB)

So Sunday was like my Friday...no work on Monday and Tuesday :) so a Melissa and Jaimee (friends from work) and I decided to go to House of Blues for a little dancing and fun. Sunday night is Industry Night and if you are over 21 and work for Disney you get in for free...if you are a girl as well you get free drinks until midnight.

Security was tighter than the airport we all got wanded as we walked into the club and they patted our backs...a little hefty I thought but as long as no one walks in with a gun I am fine with the security being that tight. Females who are 21 get a red cup when they walk in and the bar has a list of certain drinks that are free for the night...Sour Apple Martinis, Sex on the Beach, and something else that did not sound remotely good was on the list that night.

Club culture as I have noticed is quite different here. There is not the same "freak dancing" that "Uno" my favorite bar/club in Spokane has, however it was not as classy as Uno if Uno can even be considered classy...it was definitely a step up from Stockman's bar in Missoula...thank goodness.

HOB has a big stage because there are also concerts there and so the DJ is set up on the stage and on either side of him is a dancer. Now neither of the dancers were that attractive for one and they were busting some crazy moves...I actually think my mom could have been a dancer and we all know she has "rock moves". My mother would have been far more entertaining though.

Now on to the good stuff. Anyaa, I tried out your theory of if you fist pound guys if they will think of you as only a friend...several guys felt the need to introduce themselves to us and I fist pounded them. None of them asked me to dance but I think I wore my "don't want to dance with you" stamp on my forehead. Some boys missed the stamp and in their own unique ways asked me to dance. One pretended to step on my feet, apologized for stepping on my feet (even though he knew he didn't), and then said "well would you like to dance?"....No.

There were two boys that kind of "fought" over Melissa the entire evening. She danced with both of them throughout the night and by the end they were both begging her to stay when we wanted to leave and "party" with them. One looked like a bit of a thug and started trying to convince me to convince her to hang out with him. The other scampered off and bought each of us a beer even after she told him she had no interest and we were trying to leave. Such a heartbreaker.

The best of the evening came from a decent look boy. Here is the Conversation:
Boy: Do you speak English?
Me: Yes, do you?
Boy: Hello, What is your name?
Me: Kassi, What's yours?
Boy: Malek (Ma-leak)
Me: Malek, where are you from?
Boy: France, where are you from?
Me: Montana
Boy: oh, so you are American!
Me: yes...
Boy: where do you work?
Me: Animal Kingdom, you?
Boy: Port Orleans Resort.
Boy: (out of no where) Can I give you a kiss.
Me: NO.
Boy: I want to give you a REAL FRENCH KISS.
Me: NO.
Boy: Why not?
Me: NO NO NO.

He then left...thank goodness.

Needless to say it was an entertaining evening.
