and of course by sick day, I mean the day that I played hookey and went to Lagoon Park.
I'll start with the interesting signs that make you wonder, was this a problem anyway?
the first one is at the entrance to a restroom saying "the Davis county health board recommends that food and drink not be consumed in the restroom" ... umm, was that really a problem, are there just all these people saying "hey, let's take our lunch into the restroom to eat"...
another really weird sign, at the top of the lift hill on the Old Wooden Coaster saying "please do not stand up during the ride"... honestly, does someone not know that...
and some interesting things overheard
in line at the Collosus- "wow, I never expected it to be so big"
yeah, that would be why it's called Collosus...
in line for Wicked- "where's the lift hill"
umm there isn't one, they launch you out of the station, this has been it's biggest advertising gimmick sense it opened a year ago.
overheard at the waterpark- "dad, do I really have to get naked in the locker room to change"
well, no son, I guess if you really wanted to you could get naked on the sun deck to get changed, I think the rest of the guests though would appreciate you doing so in the locker room... or if you asking about the naked part, sorry humanity hasn't yet found a way to change from wet clothes to dry without getting naked, maybe if you don't like that you can when you grow up find a way to do that and make millions.
speaking of naked, if you have shaved every square inch of your body (and I'm somewhat ashamed to admit that I was standing at such an angle that I can say, yes every inch
I'm going to have to go hide in a corner and 
) and look like you are oiled up, yes you will get looks from every guy in the locker room because we are all trying to figure out whether we should be puzzled by this somewhat odd choice of yours or if it's really some disease and we should feel sorry for you.
and also there is nothing funnier than two ultra tough acting hispanics getting on the Samurai and start screaming and crying in Spanish... I couldn't understand a word that they were muttering, but it was funny
eta- one that I just remembered, went to buy dinner, the total came to $9.25, I grabbed a quarter, a 5 and what I thought was 4 ones but apparently was only 3... cashier called me on it, no big deal I miscounted, I said sorry, I don't have another 1, can I just give you a 20... said sure, I figured he'd take the 20 and give me back the bills and then give me 11 dollars change, nope he gave me back my bills and my quarters the gave me 10.75 in change... and then complained that he was running low on quarters...
oh yes, another part that I forgot, apparently UTA thinks that 2 minutes is more than enough time to make it from the bus drop-off at the Farminton station, buy a ticket, make it up 2 flights of stairs, go across a 75 yard bridge, down a flight and a half of stairs, go to the end of a 250 yard long platform to get to the train boards... you may ask how I know the measurements... well, I had plenty of time to pace them out, during the hour between trains
oh more eta- should I be concerned that when watching the "Rock U 2 The Top" show (which actually has nothing to do with U2) I was thinking, "damn, the guys are more provocative than the girls"... though I am impressed with their abilities to change, good damn they give superman a run for his money for how quick they change costumes.
seriously, this will be my last eta- lunch was depressing because I saw someone who looked and sounded just like how I remember a friend from high school... I say depressing because I know that's no longer what he looks or sounds like (sense High School he's gotten involved with drugs and has gone down hill fast
).
