Finally something FUN to occupy me

I went out and aquired a job at IOA this morning. Biding my time till the Simpsons ride opens this summer.
http://www.universalorlando.com/ioa_...s_trolley.html
Nother Bonus-GRINCHMAS my most favorite holiday, I adore Seuss Landing!
Perks? I get in FREE anytime I like and get 3 tickets every 3 months so the rest of my family can go for free too! Yea the pay blows to start, but SFW, its no fun being a housewife when your husband works at an office and the kids are at school. Now that the house is unpacked and my garden planted, I am BORED OFF MY BUTT! I used to have Brian around to amuse me, now he's in an office so SOMETHING TO DO! YAHOO! So if I am ever off and am bored, I drive 3 minutes and go ride the dragons for a while.

OOH and also- free admission to Seaworld and Busch gardens.

NO Tornadoes, just rain. It hit north and east of us.

Super Awesome: Do you know Seaworld is owned by Bud? Did you know they have a beer garden there?

We are going to take a few years away from Orlando. For the past several years we have gone and it is starting to get old for us.

And congratulations on what appears to be the perfect employer for you!

This is the perfect time of year to come down. No Lines........

You musta been coming to the mouse. The mouse sucks.

I get paid to have fun and make a fool of myself, I think I finally found the perfect element. (and the perks don't hurt either).

We gave up on the mouse a LOOONG time ago. Last time we were there we spent half a day at the old Universal and the rest of the time at IOA. We stayed on property and had the room key/head of line pass ( which was well worth it IMO ). I have nothing bad to say about it, It was just getting old .... we can wait a few years and lots of stuff will be new or at least seem fresh again.

Screw the mouse. I hate the mouse.

Here is the only bad thing. I made friends with the lead trainer on Dragons, Where I REALLY wanna work. I freaking LOVE the dragons. Its a childless enviornment, and you don't really have to do much but say milord and milady. I talked with him yesterday, and he desperately needs staff over there since his full time trainee(the one who was hired right before me) got fired.
I am stuck on the sky trolley for 80 more days- and I REALLY want to go to dragons!! The only thing I am scared of is a dragons evac- I am petrified of heights.

Heres a surprise- I need to work on my "self confidence" I am the most self confident person I know!The only place I feel comfy making a ******* of myself is out front getting people to come on to the ride.

Best I can do for you right now is a 15% discount. All my freebies are promised to the kids and hubby for now.

I freaking LOVE my job!
