About Sunday

Woke up super early for some reason. Oh, wait, the neighbors are ripping out their pool so someone started jack hammering first thing this morning. After shouting some obscenities in my head I took a shower and got dressed. Went down to Pizza Hut for the buffet only to find that on Sunday they do not offer a buffet so I kinda stuffed myself on a medium sized pizza. Of course, it was amazing. Came home and wrote yesterday's blog entry about turning 30 and goofed around on the internet for a bit. Then it came time for work so I got dressed in my work clothes and headed for the door. After a brief trip down the 5 I arrived and work and had time to converse with other cast members before trekking out to Main Street and setting up for the first parade. Had a lot of great guest interaction and the parade went smoothly. Break time and then back out on the route. The walkways for this parade were a little crowded but we muscled through it and again, everything went fine. Lunch, break, then back at it for pyro. After a couple of days without fireworks due to high winds and dryness in the air, it finally looks like we are gonna get to see, "Remember, Dreams Come True." Those thoughts we quickly put to rest when the cancellation announcement was made. Technical difficulties. Now I have to tell you here that when you tell 15,000 or more people that they can't watch things explode in the sky, you feel that at any moment they might riot. I see grown me stomp their feet on the ground and pout like children. They hurl all sorts of slanderous insults your way or mumble obscenities under their breath. People can turn on you in an instant when they hear that fireworks are cancelled. Luckily we had no situations last night and those who wanted to leave the park did so, and those who wanted to stay bee lined for the nearest attraction so as to be first in line. All in all a very good night. I came home a little tired but talked to a friend on the phone until about 2:30a.m. Good conversation ensued. Then I promptly fell asleep.
