Just Call Me "Ms. Friday's" from now on....
I can't even remember what's happend since my last entry. So much has happend.
I practically LIVE at Friday's now. I'm gonna call the post office tomarrow to have them forward all my mail there. I have a cot set up in the back and everything. A nice little cross-stiched sign that says "Home Sweet Home" right over the schedule. It's really quite homey.
Anyway.
I took my server test today. 3 1/2 hours. Yes, that's rite. I haven't taken a written final like that since 1999. In a way it didn't even matter because even my MANAGERS helped me cheat.
7 pages. What kind of Jack-assery is that? With everything from "What are the ingredients in an Ultimate Hawaiian Volcano" (*Smirnoff, GranGala, Bacardi, Bombay, Brandy, Grenadine, Lime juice and Pineapple juice and garnished with cherry, orange, lemon and lime*) to "How do you set up a Broccoli and Cheese" (*7" plate, liner{napkin}, cup, garnish with colby cheese and parsley, 1 cracker and a spoon*).
But tomarrow it should be graded and I should be an official server. I didn't even get to hand in my test before Mikey asked me to cover his shift on Sunday. The next two weeks on the schedule, I am on EVERY day and swinging for like, 3 in a row ("swinging" is a term we use to say "double shifts". Open to close.)
I still can't wait until this year is over. Only a few more weeks, I know, but it's just so bothersome in the meantime.
Ooh ooh ooh!!!! Funny story though. On Wednesday, I worked with Dave on the door. Things were pretty cool with us which was good because I'd hate for there to be an uncomfort zone while he's there. But at one point, they started playing "She Will Be Loved" on the radio, which they haven't done in a while. I started getting heavy-hearted, especially since a few people around were also singing along. It felt like mockery. But then, RITE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SONG, someone in the back changed it.
To "Since You Been Gone".
I totally freaked out. And more-so than usual, being that there was no one there to share in my excitement. The whole situation just personified my feelings rite now. It kinda summed it up in one melodious moment. Most excellent.
At the moment, I'm feeling somewhat melancholy for reasons I respectfully choose not to disclose here. But at the same time, I'm kinda anxious and nervous because I feel something huge is about to happen but I can't figure out what. Today alone, I heard several songs that remind me of my happier days in 2003. Of them was "Bring Me To Life". And the bizarre part is that on Sessions@aol, this song is listed as the top 10 most listened-to songs as chosen by the overall AOL audience. The rest are all songs currently being played to death by mainstream radio - so why is this song, out of a list of thousands more they could be playing, picked to be in the top ten? Overall, I think that 2005 is going to be very unique and something drastic is going to happen.
I saw Lemony Snicket's "A Series of Unfortunate Events" this evening with Jennie and Irving. I highly recommend it. The ending is a little sketchy but the costumes and sets are gorgeous! I was afraid that Jim Carrey was gonna ruin it but I think he did a pretty good job. This is also from a point of view that is biased considering that I never read any of the books. You have been warned.
I think my next entry is going to be a sum up of this past year. I did it in my last journal and I think it might be nice to uphold the tradition.
Why haven't I heard *the song*? What does this mean? ~~~>questions that shall plague me until my next entry. Till then.....
