Thanks to all of you that sent me birthday greetings. I have been enjoying my day off today and had a great time on Friday as well. Now I am just chilling at home after an afternoon in the park visiting a friend from MN waiting for some of my Disney frineds to call and figure out if we are going to do anything tonight.

I hate Hummers
Why do I hate hummers? Simple, last night I get off the bus from the Utilidor at 02:30. Now it was a nice 10 hour day at the Magic Kingdom so I am knackered. I then spend the next 20 minutes trying to find my bloody car. I know which row I parked and I can’t see it for the life of me. Granted there isn’t that many cars left at 02:30 in the morning, I still can’t find it for the life of me. Then as I am walking up and down the rows, I see two Hummers and in between them is my car. No wonder I couldn’t see it. It was dwarfed by these things. Not what I needed in the morning.

Would you like a Squeeze-Breeze?
So this morning I picked up a shift from EHH at Mission Space again. It was a short four hour one but the four hour shift included two new skills to add to my tool kit. 1) How to open a register and get the cash and 2) How to sell Squeeze-Breeze outside with no register. What is a Squeeze-Breeze you ask? It is a spray bottle with a fan that costs $17. Yep $17 and you too can spray yourself with water to cool down. So I now have two new skills I can use in the future. Also, for those don’t know, the Mission Space costume is simlar to a NASA flight suit so standing outside in the Florida heat for any amount of time is not so pleasent and I can’t evenuse the dang bottles we are selling to cool down. Oh well, it was only for an hour. I’m just glad that we don’t have an outdoors location on Main Street USA. Now that would be hot in those costumes.

First Day of Class
So yea, I know I just graduated from college but, I am still taking classes while here at Walt Disney World to expand my knowlege and learn valuable skills from a unique company. I have the resources open to me, I might as well use them. So that being said, today was the first day of Organizational Leadership from the Walt Disney World College Program.
The course description is:
Knowledge of leadership theory and how to apply it is critical for today’s leaders. Participants of this course will examine and apply the classical models of leadership in preparation of their application in today’s corporate environment. Throughout the course, you will examine various aspects of leadership and reexamine the results of your own leadership style.
The teacher is great and I am really excited about the class. Our teacher is a former Colonal in the Air Force and used to work in the Pentagon and for the President in Public Relations. It is also going ot be fun becuase my roommate Tré and my friend Lex are in the class as well. It will be work but fun work that connects to my work location and career goals.
Now, off to the Magic Kingdom for a shift at the Emporium.

First REAL Day Off
Well, today was my first real day off where I wasn’t picking up any shifts. So what did I do on my day off? First, I slept in till 11 and then met up with my friend Jonnie to go get out haircuts at Main Street USA. Yes, I have my haircut at Disney too. It’s really a great deal and they even give cast members a discount. How many people can say they got their haircut at an old-fashioned barbershop with a Dapper Dan Quartet and Mickey Mouse? After the haircuts, it was off to the Disney-MGM Studios to track down our friend Josh on his second to last day of work. We spent his last day off on Thursday visiting the parks and hanging out since he is leaving on Monday morning. He is now done at Magic Kingdom but due to his height (6’9″) he is doing hours at the Disney-MGM Studios for Star Wars weekends where he is “friends with” Chewbaka. Unfortunately, there are two Chewies and I think the one we had our picture taken with twice was not Josh. Jonnie then left for work and I came back to the apartment to get some lunch and nap a bit. Then it was off to Epcot Cast Services to pick up my costume for my shift at Mission Space tomorrow. While at Epcot, I had dinner with JK and caught a glimpse of Jonnie at work. Now, I am just relaxing and waiting to find out if there are any plans for tonight.
