First of all, this wasn't a fun day for me.
Thursday morning (7/9/09), one of my kittens decided to poke me in my right eye, while I was sleeping. I woke up, opened my eyes, I saw my black kitten staring at me in a strange way, pow!, his paw hit me directly in the eye. I was in severe pain for hours, even when my sister showed up to bring me some visine. She was on her way to Six Flags Magic Mountain, and I was suppose to go, and use my $9.99 admission coupon to get my nephew Alexis in, but I was in such pain, I couldn't go.
She had to log online on my computer, and print a ticket for Alexis. My niece Belladonna and her friend Vivian were also going. They left, and I took a nap, and rested my eye. I woke up a couple hours later, feeling okay, so I called my sister and told her that I was feeling okay, so I met up with her at the park. I have a season pass, so I just had to go through security. I had my camera, cell phone, plastic bag of extra charged up batteries, visine, and my camera bag.
The only ride I was able to go on was Ninja, and the Sky Tower, with my nephew Alexis, and sister. When we walked down the stairs toward Katy's Kettle, and after I used the restroom to place water on my face, the severe pain came back, and I was unable to open my right eye. So, I had to walk clearly to First Aid by Batman: The Ride, and see somebody. My sister and nephew walked with me, and so did a security officer, who asked me if I was okay. I was walking with a damp paper towel on one eye. It was hard enough for me to even drive to Magic Mountain, so I knew I couldn't drive home in my condition, and probably shouldn't even have gone.
The nurse on duty administered a eye cleaning, as I placed my eye on this bottle, and squeezed liquid into my eye, and also gave me a bag of ice to place over my eye. She wrote up a report. I told her it wasn't park related, and I didn't need an ambulance.
So, after that, I walked out of the park, and drove home. I almost lost control of my vehicle a few times, and almost rear-ended a few people as I drove with one eye open, and probably wasn't the best thing. I made it home okay, and I immediately had to remove everything I was carrying, and slip into something comfortable, and lay down, and rest.
In this video, all what you see is all I filmed and photographed. I was heading to Tatsu to get in line, because the line wasn't long, and I wanted to ride it again, but that never happened. That's my story, and though I was able to go to SFMM, I didn't really enjoy myself at all.
Today (Saturday, July 11th, 2009), I am much better. My eye is still swollen, and red, but I am able to open my eye, after I placed Petroleum Jelly around my face and eye. It was the wet eye lashes giving me the pain as I tried to open and close my eye, this was after I left the bathroom at SFMM, or I believed the smoke from the BBQ around Katy's Kettle got into my eye, and irratated even more, so I had to immediately get out of the area, so that is when I headed to First Aid.
Anyways, enjoy the video. My next visit to Six Flags will be a more enjoyable experience.

Yes, that is the audio from RCT3. I originally recorded that for my RCT3 Manta videos, so I thought why not throw that in this video.-Tim

Thanks.
My eye is still red, but I can open it now, just swollen. Never allow a cat or kitten sleep next to you, to be awoken when all it wants to do is punch you in the eye with it's paw. Not a fun experience!
I didn't ride X2 on Thursday of this video, but rode it the first time on 5/25/09. I rode the original X weeks after it opened 2007 I believe. What a rush and experience that ride was. You can feel that fire even after you make that sharp turn at the end down.
