Put a little glitter on it honey
Who else thinks it's nuts that in addition to music and mood there is now a "current location" option on live journal? It's like, in order to read my thoughts at present you must first know every factor leading to the creation of these specific ideas. A little weird I must say.
Speaking of weird. These last few days have just been crazy weird. Starting with an interesting Saturday night and ending with a very interesting Monday morning.
Saturday I hung out with Mary and Nick. A few new friends from Holiday Inn. And believe me, never in my life has there been a better time for new friends. Hopefully these friendships are slightly less destructive than the last Holiday Inn crew.
We went to downtown Fort Myers. That was the first time in a year and a half that I've been down there. It is the quietest downtown I've ever seen. It was a Saturday night and there was hardly anyone outside. You'd think there was a curfew or something. But, since Nick was wearing shorts we couldn't get into the nightclub where we were supposed to hang out in the vip room. So him and I walked around downtown and found the one bar that was playing Deftones. We had a drink there, and met and buried Coco the bug. Then we realized that we were stranded a million miles from home since our ride took off. So, we got a cab and went home. Thus, making me late for work the next day. But, it was definately an adventure.
Then there was Monday morning which needs no introduction. Lets just say it was worth all the trouble and all the wait.
Tuesday April 18 I'm invited to a benefit for Make-A-Wish. I'm going to put a face on the organization as more than just a place for sick and dying children. And now they want me to give a speech. So, I'm looking forward to that. It's my first cocktail party. And I get to feel like a real, functioning member of adult society. Now all I need is a date of some sort.
Other than all that I've been working about 60 hours a week, David's essentially "promoted" me to "head server" which means nothing except that I get to take on some of his responsibilities, such as training people. On my "day off" I've been riding and going to school. Both things are going very well. My riding has improved ten fold since the last time I rode in Michigan. I'm really starting to take riding seriously. I think that this time I will stick to it. Plus my film teacher wrote on my paper that I'm a wonderful writer and that I should continue my studies of film because I have a lot of contributions that I could bring to the industry. It just feels good to finally be doing things that I feel passionate about.
This last year and a half in Florida has definately been good for me. Now I just have to start figuring out my next step before I get stuck again.
