ah...fuck it..lol
Do I ever write in this thing when it's not like 4 AM? WTF!? I guess I could start coming home earlier to write in this thing earlier, but where the hell is the fun in that?
Well today just sucked. S-U-C-K-E-D!! Lol, ok I don't really have a big reason why it sucked, but trust me it did. I think I'm currently in one of those really bad grumpy mood where I really have no reason to be in that mood. Sadly, I just think it's that time of the month for me. Damn male PMS. Anyway I woke up a little before 2 PM today and proceeded to immediately get ready for work. I had to be there at 4 PM, and need less to say I wasn't too excited about having to go to work, but I suppose sometimes we have to do things we don't want to do. For the most part today was actually a decent day at work, except for Jamie's bitching all day, mostly about my LIVESTRONG bracelet again. It was around my bicep again but at some point it fell down to my wrist again and she flipped out. Then she threw a hissy fit because I was giving the guests too much soup. Ok is the company really getting this uptight? Oh well, she was hidden most of the night which made me night easier. Angel and I got along amazingly well, which made me question wanting to quit. She kept cracking jokes about me being gay, and she actually admitted I'm one of her favorites. That really caught me off guard, but made me feel good at the same time. Do I really still want to quit? Oh wait, yes I do. The job sucks and still 3 out of 4 managers are assholes. Oh and sad news, apparently my favorite manager isn't coming back. Rumor has it that the story about her and a server messing around ended up being true, and she was relocated. This all happened while I was in New York, but I sort of still don't believe the rumor. She denied it hardcore when there was talk about it before, and I believe her still. Who knows though. If she comes back in a month or two I'll know the rumor was false, if not guess it was true.
After work I ended up going to Sam McGuires with a bunch of Olive Garden servers for drinks. I'm enjoying myself more and more around that group, and I'm glad I went out with them tonight. I didn't drink anything, although part of me wanted to, and part of me really didn't want to. Instead I just sat around drinking Coke, and watching everyone else get drunk. Luckily there was karaoke though to keep everyone entertained. A bunch of people from work kept going up, which then turned into them all yelling at me to sing. Now, I love the fact that the Olive Garden thinks I'm some amazing talent who is going to be a superstar, but honestly it just made the pressure to sing well in front of them so much worse. Anyway, after Mark decided he was just going to pick a song at random and turn in my name to sing it I decided to just pick my own song and sing. I decided to sing "Your Song" by Elton John, just because I've sung it karaoke style before. It was sort of funny because when they announced my name before I was to go up and sing the entire bar like stood up and screamed. I think Mark went around telling people I was kinda nervous and to make me feel welcome. I guess it helped lol, because the song sounded GREAT. Everyone from work was impressed, and I got a big ovation. It made me feel good, more so I guess because I actually sounded great. I dunno though, it was just a lot of fun overall. Hopefully we'll do it again next Sunday night.
My dad did come home this morning. I had a feeling he was home last night after seeing his hospital bag on the couch, but apparently my mom just brought bag home to fill up with different clothes. He's doing ok, but still not really getting out of bed to do much. He was bleeding like crazy this morning, which we had to call the doctor for, but apparently it's nothing to worry about. It's still very weird having him be so immobile right now, but on the same token it's a bigger relief to have him home than anything else.
There's really nothing else on my mind I guess. Haven't talked to Dave since yesterday around 3 AM when he texted me about Courtney called him last night (see the LJ entry before this one for the recap). Who knew it really sucks to go over 24 without saying a word to each other?I don't know, it looks like he worked today, and then when I got home he was already in bed. Of course that means I didn't get to ask him why he seemed so upset on the phone last night, but I don't know. I have a feeling he works lunch tomorrow, and I'm a dinner closer, so hopefully I'll get out of work early enough tomorrow to get him a call or something before he goes to bed to see how everything is. I miss him. Lord knows I really don't want to go to work tomorrow, but it's bad for closers to call in sick, and since I did it Saturday I guess I shouldn't. I should look for a job tomorrow too, but I have feeling I'll more than likely sleep most of the day away. Just as good though. I have all Tuesday and Wednesday off to job search and apartment hunt. Woo Hoo!! Well time for sleep. Peace out ya all!!
