weeeell, ok
lowell isn't that bad.
i just had a few glasses of wine that night and felt the urge to associate with other human beings in my tipsy state, but found NOTHING. on top of that, i left my phone charger in boston over the weekend and let's just say i feel a large void in life without a working cellular telephone.
but yeah, i took a nice walk last night. wicked nice out, smelled like fall, was all about it. the smokehouse while often feeling like more of a pain in the ass than anything, is pretty cool. tonight was "friends and family night" which then turned into.. unofficial open to the public night. on top of the estimated 500-600 people that were invited, another good 200 or so showed up assuming it was now open to the entire public. eventually i think people just began to lose their ability to turn anyone down, hence chaos ensued.
but i love chaos, so despite not being able to seat everyone i promised - it was fun, crazy, and some of the fastest 7 hours of work EVER. i ate and smoked next to nothing all evening, but was so busy i never had a second to dwell on it. i have however, gained an immense appreciation for those in the restaurant business. dealing with drunk people under pressure, yikes. dealing with clearly obese families with children, spending 3 hours at one table, my god.
however, i still cannot WAIT to be in boston this weekend. it will bring me such, such joy.
