Thoughts from Playland

I have officially started my new job. I'm a lifeguard (at least, most of the time...) at Atlantic Playland for the summer. It's been interesting. I think I've actually done more cashiering in the arcade than lifeguarding so far, but that's life... Here's some things I've noticed from my work experience so far:

1. Work in the Arcarde is better on weekends... The batting cages are stock full of cute boys, some of whom will stop to chat with me. I'm up to being asked for 13 dates and/or phone numbers from said boys. I say no. It's actually sort of embarassing. Bumper Car Boy (no idea what his name is... I should ask... Tyler maybe?) has started coming over when the boys stop to chat. I like Bumper Car Boy.
2. Work in the Arcade sucks on sunny days. Everyone else is outside enjoying the sun, and I'm stuck inside! Although, I suppose Bumper Car Boy and the Cafe staff are too...
3. I'm going to be a cool mom who goes on all the rides with her kids.
4. Some fathers will spend $20+ on the little stuffed animal machine to get their kids a teddy bear. OH! AND! Someone finally got the Mrs. Potts out!! I was so excited for them! Mike is still there... I want him....
5. Batting cages are scary, scary things, and I HATE having to go in them to fix them! It's like taking my life in my hand for the sake of baseball - NOT COOL!
6. I like waterslides best... They're outside, mainly young children, and not scary.

I also have my fall job all lined up too! Holly has finally convinced me to join the Picalily team at Pete's Frootique downtown. I'll be getting 16-ish hours/week there. I might keep one shift at the bookstore too, but we'll see... I've got to figure out what my workload is going to be first... and how much sleep I need. :P I may end up quitting the bookstore, which is okay by me.

And finally, I registered for classes yesterday. My schedule's... interesting... Yeah... More on that some other time probably...
