I've been so exhausted lately and have hardly had the energy to write. As much as I love the people here, and it's been a good experience, I can't wait to go home. This is just too long to be away, all alone.

Another cause of my fatigue...

I am finally recovering from my weekend theme park hopping adventure. FIVE theme parks in TWO days. That's right, count 'em folks...5 in 2. Here's the rundown: Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure, Disney's Magic Kingdom, Epcot Center and Disney's Animal Kingdom. Wow, how did we ever do it! And in this heat no less.

The last two days of work have been a blast though. I was training behind the bar with Birdie. She's a Hard Rock veteran and one of the most valuable pieces of memorabilia. Haha. Today was her 24th year anniversary working for Hard Rock. I can't even imagine. What a trooper. She's still smiling, laughing and joking around. I absolutley love her and I'll miss her when I head back to NYC.

I'm in the final stretch of time here and I'm hoping it will breeze by. Little breaks are helping. I go back to NY this weekend to try and find a new apartment...never a fun task, especially in the city. But, I'm keeping optimistic. I will find a place and it will have a nice kitchen with a dishwasher. And it will be close to the right subway stop. And it will be right by a grocery store. C'mon Jedi powers...work, damn it.
