So today was a very good day. I got a nice big check so I can make rent and payoff ryan and don in no time. Today was also very warm and clear, so everyone was outside instead of at the arcade, si I got lots of time to myself. and since I was assigned to the ride station, i had lots of me time. I did some drawing, something I havent done in a while, read some manga, talked to Mike about WoW, played Time Crisis a bit, and hung out. And got paied 7.75 and hour to do it :D
One of the few groups of customers that came in was a girl no older then 13. She was all by herself, and gave me a single ticket for the bumper cars. The group before her was a big group of boys that had a blast, and I saw her watching them with a sort of jealous look. I asked if she was going to be riding all by herself, and she shrugged and gave a somewhat defeated nod. I felt so bad for her. So I took her ticket, and told her I would be her bumper buddy. I turned off the timer and and put two of the cars in manual and we bumped around and spun the cars in circles and raced laps around the floor untill the batteries started to wear down. We were laughing and giggling and having a real fun time. When I let us both out so I could hook the cars back up to recharge, She gave me a great big hug before skipping out with a smile on her face.
I fucking love my job. That was the first time in a while I felt like I really made an good impression on a stranger's day.
After work, I went our for pizza with ryan and anna, and had a few minutes of much missed ryan/eric time. Afterwards, I went home and threw a big surprise birthday party for Tia on WoW, with myself, Diane, and our friends Elly, Shadion, and Elunesabre (new allied guild leader who i have not had much OOC contact with, but he still wanted to help out). Then we dud some dueling, to while I won every match because I am just that awesome. Afterwards, we headed to Uldamann...halway through our new mage McGregor was joking around, saying he was gunna teleport outta there. He started the spell, and tried moving before he was transported, but mistimed it and teleported anyway.
We. Were. Pissed.
After much apologizing he came back and we faught our way to the final room, where we were thoroughly party-wiped by big stone things. Oh well.
And that was my day.
Oh, and since I spent so much of my day by the Initial D game, i wanna see the anime.
