HalloWeekends

Halloweekends started at Cedar Point and Shamus asked if I wanted to go with him. I figured why not, it will be a blast, and I could use the time to get away. Not to mention, I could use the rollercoaster therapy.

So Shamus gets to my place by 11:00 and off we go down I-90 heading to Sandusky. The weather was incredible, lower 70's, sunny, so I figured it's going to be packed. Wrong. Park was absolutely empty. Longest line was for the Millennium Force (as always) at 2 hours long. Top thrill dragster was running a 2 1/2 hour line.

I felt a little bad for Shamus when we were on the Mantis. He being 6'7", he is just too tall for that ride. He ends up not being able to stand correctly and hurts his back. I'm so used to being short (5'6") that I actually forget that people his size can not ride all the rides. Live and learn I guess. He did look pretty wrecked from the ride though.

Was doing good until the evening, when for some reason I just got intensely tired. I haven't been sleeping a lot lately and I think it just hit me all of a sudden. We got back to the house at 1:30 and I just collapsed into bed...and was out like a light.

Which was problematic as I was supposed to meet Ed for a drink when I got back. By the time I would have gotten changed, the bar would have been closed though.
