I've had a pretty calm weekend, now coming to a close. I've been trying to recuperate from the stupid cold that Frank brought home from Santa Barbara and gave to me. I spent all weekend sipping herbal tea and watching Star Wars Episodes I, II, IV, V, and VI. I need to go buy Episodes I and II now. I'm all into it and it's bringing me back to my childhood. I finally started feeling better yesterday and Kerry came over with Wor Won Ton Soup and Combination Fried Rice. Oh man!! That was so yummy! She stayed for a while and hung out with Mom, Corinne and me. We listened to music and looked through W magazine at all the neat new fall fashions. Yay girl things! We talked for a long time about all sorts of things and it was very wonderful. I'm gonna miss her so much when she moves to San Diego. :( Work went well yesterday. I was expecting to be a hacking, coughing mess but just being there got my mind off of all of it and I felt pretty decent through most of my shift. I stayed in a good mood most of the night. I think part of that is due to a good, friendly conversation Pat and I had. I just felt like calling him on one of my breaks, so I did. It was nice to see him smile at me when he was standing in line at work too. It was a genuine smile, it wasn't one of those courtesy I'm-trying-not-to-be-weird smiles. It made me feel good. So I got through the night just fine. Afterwards, Ryan had some insanely abundant amount of energy and decided he needed to get it out. So, we went to Del Taco at 1:00am and it was so packed. It was packed with stupid people too. Is Del Taco really all that exciting for teenagers? I don't get it. After waiting in line for a half-hour for food, we ate and then headed up to the top of Yosemite for a viewpoint look at nighttime Simi Valley. Unfortunately, the viewpoint is no longer there due to housing developments, but we did discover something quite new and exciting. There's a road that leads from Yosemite to Tapo St. around the back of Simi Hills Golf Course. I never knew this was there and I was very thrilled to know another alternate route through Simi. I started falling asleep in the passenger seat of Ryan's car at this point so he took me home and I got straight in bed. It was now 2:30am and I was ready to sleep, however, sleep did not come. I am so sick and tired of this insomnia that has been plaguing me for the past week. No matter how tired I am, my mind won't let me relax and just get some z's. I think I need some drugs. Or I need to become an alcoholic. I haven't decided yet.
Working tonight. Closing with Crystal, Annie, and Dave. It should go just swimmingly considering Crystal, Annie, and I are such over-efficient workers. And Dave kicks ass on bar. Okay, time to de-stinkify myself in the shower. *mwah*
