Sunday, May 30th, 2010During a mid-balloon-sculpture break in the laughter, the young lady said, “You should be a comedian.”
I thought I was!

Friday, May 28th, 2010We (Tony the Balloon Guy & Face Painter Phyllis) do a lot of repeat business.
We do some big events year after year.
We do jobs for the same companies over and over.
And we do birthday parties for some of the same families, year after year, and even for different children in the same family during the same year.
We’re very grateful to everyone who enjoys what we do enough to keep asking us back!
Have a fun day!
A Day Off???
Thursday, May 27th, 2010Friday, for the first time since May 2nd, we have NOTHING booked!
No balloon entertaining or decor, no face painting, no glitter tattoos, no magic shows, no pony parties… NOTHING!
Whew!
Have a fun day!
When All Else Fails
Thursday, May 27th, 2010So, we have no TV reception for.. I dunno… weeks. Something’s broke; the missus & I (Tony the Balloon Guy) can’t fix it.
Not too big a deal, as we’re working evey night, and no time to watch anyway, except a Netflix now & then.
Then Sat morning, the girl kid, age 11, is watching TV.
“How’d you fix it?” I ask.
“I read the directions,” she says.
Have a fun day!
Horsing Around
Thursday, May 27th, 2010I (Tony the Balloon Guy) am making a balloon horse for a girl at a restaurant…
GIRL: I ride a horse called Tanner.
ME: That was my mom’s name when she was a horse!
GIRL: Your mom was a horse?
ME: Why would you say something so terrible? Take that back!
Strangely, the restaurant was a Golden Corral.
Have a fun day!
Friendly
Friday, May 21st, 2010This week a few different people have asked if I (Tony the Balloon Guy) have a facebook page.
We don’t have a fan page, but we do have a people page for our business, as “Tony Balloonguy.”
It’s at:

Weeki Wachee Wonders
Monday, May 17th, 2010I love the area of Weeki Wachee where we (Tony the Balloon Guy & Face Painter Phyllsi) did a party yesterday morning. Older little houses on the river, where the kids had seen manatees and alligators from the backyard during their sleep-over.
Then, of course, I had to make those things out of balloons.
And a mermaid. It WAS Weeki Wachee after all…
Have a fun day!
Caution: Dinosaur Manicures Ahead
Monday, May 17th, 2010According to a four-year-old boy that I (Tony the Balloon Guy) made a brontosaurus for:
“If you see a dinosaur, he’ll cut your nails. Then you’ll be sad.”
Have a fun day!
The Yardstick by Which Balloon Twisters Are Measured
Monday, May 17th, 2010I (Tony the Balloon Guy) was telling a regular restaurant customer about a party I had come from that day, and she asked if I had been entertaining at such-and-such big event in a nearby town the day before.
No, I told her, I had done a balloon job the day before, but not that one.
“Well,” she said, “someone was there doing balloons, and they were as good as YOU!”
So now I’m the standard? That was sweet!
Have a fun day!
