“I mean, it’s crazy, we finish each other’s-” “Sandwiches!” Tonight was a beautiful ending for #frozensummerfun. I got to stand on the “beach” in front of the stage and watch the dream team in action. There was an overenthusiastic dancing Canadian, a girl who yelled “HI HI HI” till I turned around and posed for her camera, a coterie of snippy cosplayers (no, the rope did not “keep moving” and you could have given that little girl one of those beach balls), a mom who asked “where Frozen?” in the middle of the fireworks, and a trio of precious girls who chatted and sang with me and showed me their nail polish and told me I was beautiful. DJ Chill laughed and called me out when I got hit in the face with a beach ball, but then he put me up on the big screen. And I got to spend time with so many people I love (like @seanmocha and @a_lucc and the lovely ladies in my photo). Hands down one of the best 14 hour shifts I’ve ever worked. (at Frozen Fireworks)

It’s my first and last fireworks shift for the summer. And no, I didn’t do eight hours in gangster and come straight to fireworks, what are you talking about? #frozensummershenanigans

PRAISE BABY JESUS I DON’T HAVE TO WORK THE FROZEN PARADE TODAY!!!!

This means I’m spending all fourteen hours of my shift in gangster but OH WELL NO FROZEN PROCESSIONAL!!!

So I’m a bit of a fixer-upper. #frozensummerfun2015 (at Disney’s Hollywood Studios)

one of my favorite coworkers collected a bunch of her favorite guest moments over the holiday weeks and I got her permission to post these. And thank goodness, because they’re hilarious and I want to share them.

80 year old woman: “Oh, I’m so sorry I’m late, I was shaking my thang over at the dance party.”

10 year old boy: “I think I’ll go to the dark side because I kind of want to kill my little brother.”
his extremely confused little brother: “Wait.. What?”

very responsible mother: “Here’s my stroller, you’ll leave it at the exit of the ride?”
coworker: “Yes, but ma’am I need you to please take your child from the stroller.”
very responsible mother: “Oh no it’s ok, I trust you, we’ll be back after the ride.”

12 year old girl in the front row: “Ohh, so Tarzan had abs. See mom, that’s why he’s my favorite.”

10 year old boy: “Yeah, I didn’t want to go on this ride because I wanted to have some time away from my siblings”

7 year old boy (as he ran straight into the line when we’d been open for 15 minutes): “The Great Movie Ride!! I love this ride!!”

18 year old girl :“Wait.. Who is Dick Van Dyke? I’ve never even heard of him, he can’t be that famous.”

Wearing my @extrasweetbowtique custom Kristoff bow to match my disneybound today! But why aren’t there any carrots here? For real. #myvacationisruined (at Wandering Oaken’s Frozen Funland)

The cast members who put down fireworks tape also made a tape Marshmallow. I can’t even. #frozen #iconpride (at Frozen Fireworks Spectacular)

FROZEN SUMMER FUN IS OVER WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH MY LIFE NOW?? (at Frozen Fireworks Spectacular)

It’s time for the very last #frozen fireworks! I’m sad, but at the same time happy I never have to work them again. (And I’m really sad I didn’t get to work the last processional.) (at Frozen Fireworks Spectacular)
