TUESDAY, APRIL 30, 2013

Today was the first of three sea days (oy!)

It was a busy day of continuing to train my successor, but a productive one.  I started to do a little packing.  I am very excited that I managed to do quite well with my supply of toiletries . . . I am almost out of shampoo, facial scrub, and body wash.  I finished my hand soap.  I am down to my last bottle of contact solution, deodorant, Zicam, etc. 

Tonight’s main stage show was Justino’s Comedy Magic, starring my buddy, Justino Zoppe!  I will be sad to leave he and Daniela, but look forward to working with them again in the very near future.  Last night, I received a minor “trick” from Justino.  He decided it would be cute to have the Production Supervisor, shore side, email me to tell me that I was needed to extend for two weeks.  My initial reaction was “nope – I already have things lined up.”  Well, it only took me a few seconds to realize that this was the Production Supervisor trying to “get me.”  A few seconds after that it dawned on my that Justino probably had something to do with it too.  I went to tell him and Daniela, to see his reaction, and she couldn’t keep a straight face, at which point I knew I was trying to be had . . . but you have to wake up pretty early in the morning to pull one over on me!   Well, that’s what I tell myself, and in this one instance, it’s true (pfew).  Despite that, I still think Justino and Daniela are pretty great and I told both he and the Produciton Supervisor that . . .

It may not be today.
It may not be tomorrow.
But payback is a bitch!
