There's a big differance between being mostly dead, and all dead.

Which brings about the question "What ya got that's worth living for"? 10 points to anyone who can figure out what movie I'm watching right now. I'll give you a clue, it's one of the best movies ever.

I can now say, without a doubt, that this has been the longest stretch that I have gone without posting. Something that I will now rectify and make you wish I hadn't. A lot has been going on lately. I got another job working at the metroparks, but it's not at Wildwood. I'm going to be working down at Providence Metropark as a Historical Interpreter on the Canal Boat Experience. I will have to be in period dress when I'm working there, and yes, that does mean I will be wearing an actual dress. What I'll be doing is telling people what the canal locks were used for, and talking about things that happened at period in time. I think I have to come up with a good first person impression, but that won't be too hard. My new boss suggested that I go down there to work after I gave him and his wife a tour of the Manor House. It was said that I have a lovely speaking voice, which I found odd because I tend to be scared out of my mind when doing any kind of public speaking. I like the fact that this just kind of fell into my lap. Granted, it will take me about 45 minuets to get down there, but it's with an organization I've been with for over two years, and it pays a pretty good wage. It should be fun.

Ciao had been going pretty well. The other host that I've been butting heads with is quitting at the end of the week (wohoo!), and we just got done training a new host to take her place. The new girl is really nice and is a fast learner to boot. Other then that, not much going on there. Go to work, seat a bunch of people, go home.

Maggie and I went to the mall the other day. While we where there, I came to the conclusion that I need more girl clothes. Yes, I do buy clothes made for girls, but they are either too dressy for everyday wear (because of work), or too tomboyish too wear out. So I got a skirt, a almost kimono type shirt, and an awesome black corset (which is the friggin bomb!). I went to the mall again today and got a couple shirts, a pair of jeans, and a cute little tank top. I wouldn't have gotten the jeans because they are low rise, but they looked so good that I couldn't not get them. I think I've gotten to the point in my life where I can't go slumping around in jeans and a t-shirt all the time. Not that I don't love to do that, but I need to update my wardrobe a bit and make it a little more adult.

A couple notes on my last post. Yes, the 'doe-si-doe' part is a bit Americanized, but that just might be because I live in America and tend to pick up on the influences around me. I put it there as a rhyming place holder until I could come up with something better. I don't even like country music, but it went and I'll keep it there for a bit.

As a parting thought, let me leave you with this.......

SPORK!!!!!!

Grrrrr - I wasn't first, but yes - you are definately quoting The Princess Bride. I hope a R.O.U.S eats your toes.

Oh Man, I just read the rest of that post and whilst I'm going to leave your dreadful fashion dilemmas aside...

HA HA! You're one step away from being a Carnie. Do you have small hands?

Joe gets the points! Mwahahahahaha...

Dear Saten, or should I say "FluffyBunnyCakes"? Hehehe.....
No I do not have small hands. I have just the right sized hands.

Glad you all got the movie thing.
