This past weekend I took my first trip to Cedar Point.
It was Bill, me, Brooke, and 80sBand.
AngryJ and Nutmeg girl were supposed to come along but AngryJ had to WORK- ugh.
Poor poor Nutmeg girl (we all thought you should have flown out anyway)...
:)
Cedar Point highlights:
- it was CROWDED. More crowded than Bill, Brooke, or 80sBand had ever seen before.
- Nutmeg girl assigned us the task of finding the best mullet. However, it didn't seem to be mullet day at the park...rather "I'm a freak teenager day" instead. Lip piercing seemed to be the way to go.
- Waiting in lines for the rides sucked, but we came up with fun ways to pass along the time. Including but not limited to: "Guess what instrument that freaky band kid plays", thinking of how to get more "normal people" (people like us) to the park by inventing new park promotions like "Only people with 401Ks can enter the park day"
-We only got to go on 3 rides: Magnum, Mean Streak, and Millenium Force.
Millenium Force was the first ride and I'm proud to say, I did NOT crap my pants. I did cry a little, but I'd like to say they were tears of joy. It was SUPER fun!!!!
- Probably the best highlight was when 80sBand saw someone famous!!
We were in line for the Mean Streak when 80sBand became quite excited. He informed us that "Jeff Daniels" was in line, just ahead of us. You know, the guy from Dumb and Dumber that isn't Jim Carrey.
We all turned to look but 80sBand quickly told us "don't look yet, you want to be able to see him from the front" and "to be patient"...
.....
.....
so we wait...
and we look....
and now I'll show a picture of the REAL Jeff Daniels bc this was obviously NOT him...
In conclusion, we had a really good time.
The weather was great.
80sBand pleased us all by remembering on every ride where the camera was and taking GREAT pictures (you know the ones where you get off the ride and there is some kind of hut place where all the screens of pictures from the ride are located).

and be sure to recall that he thought his name was jeff bridges not jeff daniels...
His name was probably LeLarry...
Only 3 rides!?! Wow, I actually feel better about the fact that I spent the entire weekend in the office. Not much better, but a little. Three rides? That is just ridiculous...we'll have to go next summer, and we can make it a boat trip. With a stop at Kelley's on the way back for brandy alexanders...
