Day 96

"When this old world starts getting me down
And people are just too much for me to face
I climb way up to the top of the stairs
And all my cares just drift right into space
On the roof, it's peaceful as can be
And there the world below can't bother me
Let me tell you now
When I come home feelin' tired and beat
I go up where the air is fresh and sweet (up on the roof)
I get away from the hustling crowd
And all that rat-race noise down in the street (up on the roof)
On the roof, the only place I know
Where you just have to wish to make it so
Let's go up on the roof (up on the roof)
At night the stars put on a show for free
And, darling, you can share it all with me
I keep a-tellin' you
Right smack dab in the middle of town
I've found a paradise that's trouble proof (up on the roof)
And if this world starts getting you down
There's room enough for two
Up on the roof (up on the roof)
Up on the roo-oo-oof (up on the roof)
Oh, come on, baby (up on the roof)
Oh, come on, honey (up on the roof)"

---The Drifters, "Up on the Roof"

Sometimes, after a rough day, you just need a place to go and decompress.  For some, that place is their room.  For others, it is the roof top!  And if I were having a rough day....well I'm not so I guess it doesn't matter! GOTCHA!

Today I spent the morning being creative!  I am working on re-doing ALL of the staff badges for the shows and Ken and I were playing around with the software and learning all the ins and outs.  After printing my own badge about 4 times front and back...we finally got a final design that we liked.  I am now official!  I have a picture badge just like everyone else!  This afternoon, I spent some time in the museum.  It was a pretty slow day but I felt accomplished as a problem solver when Katrina (the store manager) and I were trying to fix a computer issue and I was the one who figured it out!!!  It is a rare moment when I can be right about something on the computer so I think I deserved to pat myself on the back!

COUNTDOWN TIME....only 5 more days til I get to see two of my best friends!!!!!!!! :-) This picture is of the three of us back in 2002 (i think) after I moved away and came back to visit! Love you girls!
