Okay so I'm at college and I should be finishing off my introduction to my project but my attention has wandered.
Well America is over. I'm staying here in Ireland for the summer. I'm not unhappy about it the way I thought I'd be. I rang Alice the day before I decided not to going freaking out.
And I was preoccupied and a bit of a bitch at work. Now I'm never really a bitch at work. I know I'm not nice at college all the time to some people, irritating people, like people who invite themselves to your birthday dinner and then don't show up. But at work I'm always in a good mood (because there's a chance of getting tips).
But my point is the next day I was in a much much better mood.
And well I met someone. At work. Now I don't normally meet nice unmarried people at work who I'd want to have a drink with. It's usually 'Hey I've a room to myself tonight. What are you doing after work?' But anyway I met a guy about a month ago. One of the builders staying in the hotel, he works with one of the guys, Kevin, who's stayed in the hotel for about a year. So he came down to the bar because Kevin was sick and he didn't want to disturb him. So he sat in the bar for about four hours just talking and I got him to try this new shot I was making and he was really nice and funny.
So anyway the next night him and Kevin come down to the bar and they have a couple of drinks and then they go to watch the Liverpool match somewhere else. And they come back later (around 12.30am) and they sit at the bar, talking with a couple of other guests who were there. Well Kevin talked to them, Wayne (his name) was talking to me telling me about how he had nothing to eat since lunch and they'd been drinking all evening. So I gave him some bread and he said they were going to make tayto sandwiches.
Anyway so I call last drinks and go upstairs to do my cash. And when I come back down they're still in the bar. Now there are certain people I don't mind staying in the bar a little later than normal - the builders and couples who just sit there with one drink and who will leave when you ask them to. The reason behind the builders is because most of them have been there for months and they know my name and are always nice and always say "don't call me sir". Plus I don't mind if I've got enough tips to cover my taxi and the extra clean up time.
Anyway I go to the kitchen to get the mop or something when I come back he's walking toward the lift and he gives me a piece of paper and tells me have a nice night. So I go back into the bar and Kevin is there. Plus Wayne's number is on the counter and I ask ' is this for me?' He says 'well I've got it already.' Then he says that Wayne wants my number. So I give it to Kevin. Then I said don't give it to him, tell him ask me tomorrow. And then Wayne texted me two days later.
And we've been texting and ringing eachother since then. Plus last Saturday he told me he wanted us to be more than friends. And next week we're getting a drink because he'll be back down in Limerick.
And that was the best thing that happened to me all easter.
