Wednesday, 16: Yeah, I got to see Harry Potter Wednesday night. I liked it for the most part, though I was sad that the dragon scene wasn't longer. Ended up being done with the movie at 5 am. Yeah, longass movie. Though, I'm glad that I've not read the book yet, sounds like I won't like the movie as much when I do.
Oh yeah, changed lightbulbs in the theatre earlier in the day with matt. That involved moving a 2 ton ladder around in and out of the building, to all of the theatres. I almost lost my head a few times...I'm glad I'm just strong enough to be flexible enough to fit in some of the ladder step holes. O.-
Thursday, 17: Midnight show of Harry Potter. I got to work and we opened the doors at 6:30, normal opening time. Apparently people had been waiting outside since 11 am. We were sold out of midnight show tickets at 8:30 - 2 hours. And that's close to 1000 tickets. So, about 9 oclock, Matt decides we can start letting people wait inside, on the small side of our building. This is when the fun starts.
I've never hated crowds of people at the movie theatre, just their messy habits. As of thursday night, I hate All people who go to see harry potter these next nights. I also hate harry potter. After we got everyone into the theatres, the place was absolutely trashed, thanks to the insane amounts of waiting eating screaming drunk puking laughing pushing people.
-_-
Friday I had to get to the theatre early, so I got there at 2. we had to have matinees for potter. So, I got to work double shift, cause our place doesnt have enough workers for this craziness. from 2pm to 3 am, screaming people, messes, disgusting smells of masses of bodies heating up auditoriums.....and I'm super sore from not getting enough sleep the night before, and carrying that huge ass ladder around.
I hate harry potter....and everyone who loves him.
I contemplated making a molotav cocktail and throwing it from the projection window down into the masses of H.P. fans. but I thought that might smell even worse....after all, I dont like it when our popcorn butter burns. ick. that mixed with all that lard.... ::shudder:: Anyway.
Yeah, I worked a double Saturday too, though I didnt have to. One of my good friends there, Megan, was working, but not really, sine she was trying to stress out over her architecture final, due tuesday (today). So, I said I'd take her shift - she hadnt slept for 3 days, and she was about to die, i think. so, I made her promise she'd sleep at least two hours, then I sent her off. Sunday wasn't any better, though I got to sleep that past night. But it still sucked.
Now Monday is done, I didnt work, and I was able to breathe a bit. Ahhhhhh. And only two more days of classes, woot.
And then I work all weekend again. Though, I have Turkey evening off. And I will eat. And be happy. and slightly disgruntled.
HAPPY TURKEY DAY TO ALL THOSE LURVELY PEOPLES i KNOWS! EAT LOTS! BURST OPEN!
Finitos. gobble gobble.
