Day 4 of the Last @ Uptizzle....
Sitting here eating a d-lish bagel sandwich w/ a side of cooler ranch doritos as I'm typing my thoughts...
Well tonight was my last night closing up shop at Uptown... It's pretty sad really. I mean no doubt I wont ever miss the closing by yourself days or the non stop crap you gotta clean at close lol! But the fact that people see the board that says "Laura's Last Day August 4th" and say "We're going to really miss you"..I mean Im just a coffee shop girl and for people who come in everyday and become a regular and actually consider me a person/friend, its just kind of cool. The other sad part of it too is Im extremely comfortable there...I know the place by heart&know tons of regular's names and drinks. Ive worked there for a long ass time and to be able to talk to my boss with swear words and sometimes with perverted context,lol I'll miss that! Or the boss&co worker who slips me some alcohol at our gathering last night LOL! Its just awesome to know that youve made a lot of friends to a certain degree...like the regulars who give me there contact info or ask for mine (e-mail,ect) and say "Make sure to Keep In touch!" and also the people I've been working with.
Oh Junuh...If you Were only 20 or so years old lol! My co-worker's son who is 4 is sooo adorable. Tells me last night at our get together " I love you"...and told his mom today that hanging out with me last night was "the Best Night ever". When he hugged me I almost started crying last night. Sometimes little kids innocence&imaginations are soo cool& its fun to be a kid with them again!Gonna miss my little guy...
Like I said with the comfort Im really going to miss it at Uptown. That feeling is hard to regain at a new job and Uptown is a place where I'll always feel that level of comfort. But no doubt Im extremely excited to meet new people(one of my fav things to do) at my new job and get to know the students who come regularly. Ive been anticipating this move since like...FOREVER! But my stomach is getting a little nervous for this step...although Howell sucks...lol nothing to do most of the time...theres two places that will always have a little piece of my heart...Uptown&Home.
Went to Mejiers bought..Coldplay and Nail Polish..(for my mom's wedding). It's going to be fun this weekend at her wedding. Super Low Key but its going to be very nice. I hope this brings her happiness because through all our tough odds&ends, she deserves to find someone who will treat her will the respect she needs. I just hope this companionship with Thom will help build her as a person because a lot of her has been taken away over the years with loneless and depression from the divorce. I want her to be complete like she was before because I miss her & I want to be able to be reasurred that shes smiling more&more with life.
Anyways, Jess& I are buying more tickets to Dave LOL....Shouldnt be spending money at all but 30 bucks for lawn tickets. 2 hours away from Kzoo in Chicago...Farm Art Concert with Kenny Chesney(SP), Willie Nelson, Neil Young, ect and Solo DAVE! Sounds like fun...
