Work went really well tonight. I didn't make a whole ton of money, but I still had a good night. I was in a really small section with a partner and it's hard to make a whole lot of money in there, even on a Saturday night. However, a few weeks ago, Des made like $173 in that section with me but it's because she kept having huge parties. I let my partner (Katie Temple, although I know her last name is different now since she married that acne-breeding-ground, Shane, but I don't know what it is) have all the big parties while I ran the other tables but we only had two big parties all night. Plus, there are only five tables in that section, and when there weren't any parties coming in, we only had two tables apiece. But I did okay. I'm trying to appear more confident and people responded really well to me tonight. I hope tomorrow goes as well as tonight did.
I mentioned in my last post that we hung out with Patrick and Corey and Jessica the other night. Well, we bought pizza for everyone that night. Jessica got us an employee discount on the pizza since her brother and sister used to work at Papa John's. It was $10.95. Anyway, tonight at work, Aja and Jessica had Patrick buy them pizza and bring it to work. So he did (and I think he paid for it, just like he pays for everything she eats or does or looks at) and she and Aja proceeded to sell it for one dollar a slice. Des asked her if she could have a slice and Jessica was like, "It's a dollar a slice." and Des was like, "Well, I thought you wouldn't mind giving me one since I bought pizza the other night." and Jessica was like, "No you didn't because I got you the discount." And she wouldn't give her any. What the fuck? Anyway, so before we left work tonight, Des and I were eating a piece of black tie mousse cake and Jessica was like, "Can I have a bite?" and we both wanted to be like, "Yeah, for a dollar a bite." but we didn't. We just sat there and took her shit because we love Patrick so much and we don't want to be a bitch to his girlfriend and make life harder for him.
So after work, Patrick took us to the grocery store and we bought some dog food and cat litter and we went and ate at the Mid-City Grill and then we came home and Patrick burned a CD on our computer and I finished the one I was working on.
I am dying to get our car back. DYINGGGG.

I would just like to make it known that the mixed CD that Patrick made consisted entirely of bad nineties one-hit wonders. Thank you.
BY THE FUCKING WAY, WE ARE WATCHING MEATLOAF LIVE ON VHI AND THIS IS THE MOST AMAZING THING I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY ENTIRE LIFE! p.s. of COURSE it's on VH1: old music for old people. Oh and by the way again, the music we play at the Olive Garden is driving me FUCKING batshit. I used to like this Tony Bennett/Frank Sinatra shit until I started working there but now it's just driving me fucking insane. I hate that song about the Mambo Italiano and the one about the yellow basket. Aim for my head.
Oh yeah and Eminem holds his penis when he stands. It makes me nervous.
Me: Honestly, would you say I'm "big pimpin'"?
Des: Yes.
You heard it from the source, folks.
