Work’s annual ‘let’s all get together and talk about stuff, but we’ll hold the meeting off-site so it will seem cool and fun’ event happened yesterday. At an amusement park.

If you can imagine sitting at a picnic table listening to an explanation of projected revenue with a backdrop of people shrieking on a rollercoaster, all in 90F degree heat, that’s exactly what it was!

I don’t want to say it was un-fun, but I would call it a mixed bag. The amusement park overall — the same one I visited on a field trip as a senior in high school! — had a slightly creepy sense of sameness to it, despite many of the rides and attractions being different. It was fun, yes, but I wasn’t about to wander off on my own.

On the plus side, I was very pleased that no one gave me a hard time about my ‘nothing haunted and no rollercoasters where you go upside down’ stance on rides. Thanks, team!
