The Metaphor Girl

I'm a button, I'm a horseshoe, I'm a girl who's bad at metaphors.

I am about to be That Crazy Person walking around JoAnns with a doll because I’m trying to match fabric and paint colors

About Me

I’m Caitlin, and I’m finally coming through the other side of my quarter-life crisis. I live in Florida with my spoiled little cats, Hiccup Horrendous Haddock IV and Astrid Cagney Hofferson. I had the privilege of working at the Great Movie Ride in Disney’s Hollywood Studios for four years and was part of the closing team, so you might have seen me as a tour guide, Mugsi Toccata, or Kate Durango. I’m now currently a guide at Kilimanjaro Safaris. When I’m not driving around in circles pointing at four different kinds of antelopes, I’m often found performing in local theatrical productions. or spending time with my giant boyfriend. Favorite things include the smell of dryer sheets, marathons of canceled TV shows, and rainy days (as long as I’m indoors at home).

I have nothing interesting to post during quarantine so please enjoy another flashback photo. No one knew who I was. They kept asking if I was “blonde Anna” or “blonde Belle.” #mnsshp #cosplay #disneycosplay

“I’m a winner, and I’m adorable!” #wreckitralph #vanellopevonschweetz #vanellopecosplay #mnsshp #halfwaytohalloween

“Please bless Rufus, and Teddy, and all the kids at the orphanage. And please let someone find my bottle. There's a message in it. Because running away isn't working. Amen.” #halfwaytohalloween #halfway2halloween #rescuers #penny #disneymagicmoments #pennycosplay

“no matter how your heart is grieving, if you keep on believing the dream that you wish will come true” #halfwaytohalloween #cinderellaragscosplay #cinderella #disneymagicmoments

🎶bit of a fixer-upper🎶 #halfwaytohalloween #kristoffbjorgman #kristoffcosplay #disneymagicmoments

It’s #halfwaytohalloween you say? (I was going to pick just one of my favorite costume photos, but it’s quarantine, baby, so I’m just going to post like...all my faves.) Also I would like point out that for extreme accuracy, I actually put in my old retainer for these photos. #mabelpines #mabelpinescosplay #dipperpines #dipperpinescosplay #GRAPPLINGHOOK #grapplinghookhairdryer #gravityfalls #disneymagicmoments

I found some scraps from my first Cheryl costume, so I made them into a mask!

Mugsi might have gotten the jewel eventually if she opted for a speederbike instead of a tram. #thelittlestmugsi #greatmovieride #revengeofthefifth

The first time I do my hair and makeup in months, and oops I’m Anne Shirley. (Really it was for a super cool project that should be debuting next week, but I will take any excuse to become Anne Shirley. The project is not actually related to Anne, it’s the exact opposite, but these kinds of things seem to happen to me.)

Happy May the Fourth, Kylo. Mom says you’re grounded. #maythefourthbewithyou #maythefourth #generalleiaorgana

Happy 31st to the Hollywood that never was, but always will be! You were my first park, and like we Movie Riders always say, “if all else fails, say ‘James Cagney’.” I mean...”there’s no place like home.” #greatmovieride #disneyshollywoodstudios #thelittlesttourguide #slowmovingtramfam

Happy birthday to the handsome man of my dreams!! A quarantine birthday doesn’t seem like a real birthday, but we’ll party when this is all over, and in the meantime there’s no one else I’d want to self isolate with!! ❤️❤️❤️

I have approximately 80 million things to sew during the rest of this quarantine. At least I have a vest for the Man in the Yellow Suit ready for a fitting! (Whenever that can happen, that is. You have to be closer than six feet to pin somebody.) Also real talk: buying bedsheets and curtains are cheaper than buying muslin and embroidered organza by the yard. #tuckeverlasting #mlptuckeverlasting #manintheyellowsuit #maetuck #tuckeverlastingcostume #simplicity8195 #ineedahashtagforthisproject

So I’m directing Tuck Everlasting, but I’m also the costumer! (Why do I keep doing this to myself?) Today I bought my first round of fabric and notions- guess who’s coming up first! #tuckeverlasting #mlptuckeverlasting #costumerproblems #evilbanana #simplicity8195

When I was eighteen I walked into the Chinese Theater as a cast member for the first time. Today that building opens to a new ride, a new team, new memories. Take good care of her. Keep an eye out for the fruitcake in the ceiling (even with construction it might be around there somewhere). Tell guests about the little details that make the building so special. Be nice to the ghosts (except the guy in Alien, he was the worst). Look out for the courtyard bees. Hum “Hurray for Hollywood” every once in a while. And take pride in the fact that you’re the next chapter in a legacy. There’s no place like home. #onceamovierider #greatmovieride #thelittlestmugsi #thelittlestbandit

It’s #tucktuesday and look at the adorable Tuck family!! We can officially say that we’re opening next month!! #tuckeverlasting #mlptuckeverlasting

February was a busy month for me! I got my trainer shadows at Safaris, I had a birthday, I performed in a cabaret, I ran a 10K, I started rehearsals for Tuck Everlasting. But I forgot an important one- I started a temporary assignment with Festival Disney! I’ll be there until about mid April (when Tuck opens) and I’m so excited to be part of the team!

It’s a little late for #tucktuesday, but look at this flock of Winnie Fosters! (And a wild choreographer appears in the background) Why are there so many Winnies? You’ll have to get your tickets and see the show this spring! (Also we’re missing Winnie no. 5- it really is a flock of Winnie Fosters!) #tuckeverlasting #mlptuckeverlasting

Last year @poisonapplecosplay ran her first 5k with me; this year was her first 10K! I should have done a Baymax shirt instead of Flynn because I definitely wasn’t fast, but I finished! (In my defense, I had to go to work immediately after 😂) Already thinking about the next race! #princesshalf #disneyprincess10k #disneyprincess10k2020

Here’s hoping it’s warmer tomorrow for the 10K! #princesshalf #disneyprincess10k
