feliz navidad
so, its officially christmas. im not that excited. im actually really lonely, and not just because jt is away. i kind of feel family-less. love-less. i managed to get out of work a 1/2 hour early tonight to BARELY make the mom's-side-family-christmas extravaganza. it was ok. NOTHING special. at all. boring, and short. i got a 50$ gift card (one of those Visa credit card things), 7 rolls of film, and a huge picture album with a big J on it, and it holds lik 430 pics. those were nice. i exclaimed the fact that my whole gift card would go towards my actual credit card bill, and after gift giving ceased, my grandpa (the one who got me the gift card in the first place) pulls me into the kitchen and says he wants me to spend it on myself, on something i want. he then precedes to pull out $100 in cash and hands it to me for my credit card bill. it's our "little secret". p.s. i tried really hard not to accept it, but he's not the type to take something back. trust me. he'll always help me out, even when i dont ask or necessarily need it. i love him. i'm pretty sure i've also never told him that. hmmm. :-/
i only had like 5 tables total tonight at work, but made pretty decent tips. like $34 in cash, who knows how much in visa. one lady gave me a hug when she left. i must've smiled enough and was "cutesy" enough. i'm pretty good at that. the only thing that bothered me at work was: i was really bored most of the time. even though my section was completely full the whole time i was there, people never wanted refills or weren't done with there dishes, and just sat there forever. so i usually didnt have anything to do. then the owner that i hate working with was working tonight. her husband (like a co-owner) was there the entire night. and he was always bussing my tables!! maybe he was being nice since they were all full and i was overwhelmed (sometimes) and i was new at serving? or maybe he was trying to make a point i wasn't good enough?? who knows. but i'd hold the doors for him and take plates from him and tried to be nice.
i want some back kisses by the fireplace ... yum. sick, i spilled cool whip on my floor. and mountain dew. lol. there is also a blueberry pie on my floor, and a glass pan with like 1 brownie left. my room is really funny. full of food. pringles, mountain dew, hot chocolate, gummy everything (sharks, lizards, bears, etc).
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
