So one of the members on the Lab Team was medically debarked for this last cruise. She tore her ACL during a program and now she’s gone home to merry England for recovery. This means we were down a person for the last cruise. When this happen in Ent Host land, everyone picks up the slack. In one day’s time, I was in every major program and (with the exception of Detective), played every major character. Now, kids are usually pretty slow on the uptake about who is really playing who. But when you’re in every program... they tend to get wise.
One little boy, bless his heart, stared at me for a full five minutes trying to figure it out. A few others would call me by my previous character’s name. It’s gotten to the point where I’ve decided to borrow an idea from our Teen Host, Tiffinie, and have all of my characters dislike each other, but especially dislike that silly nincompoop Allyson. That way is any kid is like, “Hey, are you so-and-so?” I can reply, in character, “No you scurvy dog, and don’t speak of that green haired freak to me again!” or “What? No, no, no, I would never be a smelly pirate. A kitchen is no place for such trash!” or even, “Little Detective, what use would I have for French cooking? Is too much.” And if any of them call me Allyson.... “DO NOT SPEAK TO ME OF THAT WOMAN! We are not friends.”
All of this planning, however, has led to a slight problem. My multiple personalities are starting to get the better of me. I’m worried I’m gonna do something silly on one of the minor programs, like Piston Cup, and say, “Let’s race some cars, you scallywags!”
It’s like I’m getting to the point where the characters in my head will start talking to each other... Lord, help me.
Speaking of characters... Stitch is quite possibly my favorite character in the whole of Disney. We have a program called “Stitch’s Adventure Squad” where we have living character interaction and Stitch calls us from space so we can talk back and forth and play games. I’m just as excited as the kids to do this. Like legitimately fumble over my words to talk to Stitch because I am so excited. I am the Queen of Nerdom and the children have no idea. No shame, friends. No shame.
There are so many things I would really like to say and funny stories I would love to tell you, but I can’t. It sucks, yes. Kinda like the whole picture thing. I am contractually not allowed to take pictures. I know everyone wants to see pictures of my super cool friends, but I can’t take them. They are very camera shy, if you know what I mean.
I’m hanging out with Professor Make-O-Mess this whole cruise, so I’m sure there will be some fun and exciting science times going on. Maybe I’ll get some stories I can tell you! :)
Until then...
See Ya Real Soon!
