Just A Quick Little Story.
Work has been pretty awesome, I won't lie. A couple of days ago, I had the most hilarious viking fight with my attendant, and it was all right in front of a guest with a video camera, and I'm HOPING they put it up on YouTube. Because it was seriously amazing. It's hard to describe in just text, because I always just end up acting it out, but basically... There was this kid who had a foam viking sword from Norway, and the shield! I was like, there's no way I'm not going to play with this... So I put the shield on, and I grabbed the sword, but then I was like, well, now I can't fight the kid, he doesn't have a sword. So I looked, and I saw my attendant, this new CP who's fun to pick on in the next section over. So I told the kid to hang on, and I ran full speed at my attendant (which with my stubby little legs isn't that fast, but looks hilarious), lept in the air and landed with my shield up and my sword in the air in a fight stance.
The look on my attendant's face... OMIGOD, I was cracking up. Like, "this was not in the job description!" He puts his hands up and shouts, "I'm unarmed!" So I put my sword down, like, Oh yeah... But, I have a sword! So I'm looking and thinking, and the attendant goes, "Wait!" And he does the Rhino ninja pose, and I'm like YES!!! So I get my sword back up, and we're facing off, and I'm backing up a little, and then he jumps at me, so I'm like, it'll be funnier if I let him win. So I jump and turn to run away all scared... But, well, the Garden Grill is a circular restaurant... and I was backing up in a straight line... and I have no peripheral vision (seriously, put your hands up to the side of your head, that's more vision than I have), so when I turned to run... I ran straight into a wall... Which only made it more awesome.
I bounced off the wall and kept running.
We couldn't have planned something that amazing.
