why my life is so sweet...
20 reasons why tonight ruled so much:
(try not to get jealous)
1. I left Applebee's today. Officially done. I only cried for about 2.3 seconds, then I realized... why cry? Everyone that I genuinely care about I will still talk to.
2. I made more money than I have ever made in one bar shift.
3. I got to work with Rosa and she was the one who trained me on the bar. This was crucial.
4. I got drunk, like seriously drunk, at work. You might think this is lame, I thought it was crazy. I've never done anything that badass in my entire life. All the servers looked out for me and the best buy guys kept buying me shots.
5. I got 11 phone number in one night. 11! It was really bizarre. I didn't even look cute today and it kept coming out of nowhere. (sidenote: this one guy left a $50 tip on a $50 bill with his phone number on the credit slip. Rosa accidentally closed it out to 0 so we had to call him back in to get his credit card back. I felt bad because I could tell he was way embarrassed. That is pretty embarrassing...)
6. Mo came in for a special visit and gave me this whole card with all this really nice stuff in it and it was really sweet.
7. Jackie and my mom came in to visit which is really nice.
8. Theresa came in and gave me a gift which included a hat that resembles natalie portman's work helmet in garden state. When I opened it she said "this is why you'll be fine at your new job!" I'm guess this refers to the time I passed out at work. For the record, it was not awesome.
9. Thiago wrote a stupid song for me. I assisted with some sick nasty backups.
10. Spencer told me how I have changed his life. He called me his boy. That's cool.
11. Jorge, a busboy, gave me this card and there was a picture from halloween in it and he wrote in english. He barely speaks english, so he had to find someone to translate for him. I found out later that he walked out, but before he left he made sure to give me the card. What a sweetheart.
12. This guy took my garbage out for me and as he went to throw it away the bag broke and glass fell out and cut his elbow. He tried to keep it a secret because he knows how much I hate elbows. He wins three times because he took out the garbage for me, he prevented me from hurting my elbow, and he kept it a secret from me so I wouldn't freak out.
13. When I first came in me and mikey were making drinks. He dropped his shaker and I dropped my glass at the same exact time. My glass shattered, his shaker was fine. We laughed a lot.
14. I walked out feeling like I would be genuinely missed.
15. Everyone sang to me. I got super shy and awkward. It was right in the middle of the restaurant in front of everyone!
16. Some lady started screaming, I didn't know it was your birthday! She kept giving me high five's as I tried to explain that it was not my birthday.
17. I didn't have to clean the bar. We paid someone to do some of it and Rosa did the rest.
18. I never got my secret santa gift! This is not awesome, however, I just realized it now. That's messed up.
19. I had the single most awesome bar crowd tonight. Not one person complained and by the end of the night I was making mistakes all over the place. They chanted my name. It was cool.
20. I made some really amazing friends at that job. There's something about that place that just brings people together. I'm confident that I've made life long friends there and that's just feels nice.
So yea, I'm in a pretty good mood. That doesn't even include the awesome time I had last night. Ryan Costello hung out with me in New Brunswick, so that was pretty spectacular. I got Spencer in on the Come on Eilleen kickline. Who knew? Tayzia is just one of my favorites and I never have a bad time with her. We went drunken Christmas carolling through new brunwick at 3am. I think that's pretty fun. I wasn't drunk actually. I'm always the driver there for some reason. I'm okay with that.
Wow, I'm tired and I had no idea how late it was. Good night.
I still love livejournal. Never myspace. I don't know why. It is what it is, I suppose.
