I am the watch you always wear but you forget to wind.

For some reason it seems all the religious fanatics have started coming to Waffle House. Once again, last night at work, there was a long, drawn-out discussion about Christianity and all its implications. So, yeah, I'm going to have to replace the cash register with a podium if this keeps on for too much longer. Why can't they just sit at home, read their Bible, interpret it however they want to, and go on with their lives without feeling the need to impress everyone else with how righteous, or should I say self-righteous, they are b/c they're a Christian and "know everything". Look, just b/c you think you've gotten your life straightened out doesn't mean it's time to get started straightening out everyone else's. Let them live their own lives and if we don't end up in the same place, we'll burn one for you while we're there. Argh! But, anyways, I actually had a pretty good night last night tip-wise. The only down-side was that we were under-staffed and I am SERIOUSLY underpaid in the hourly rate department. I really need a raise. Well, let's see. I'll have been there for nine months a week from now. Three months from then, at the 1-year mark, I should be getting my second raise. Not to mention a bonus I get sooner or later for working at only one store for a certain period of time. Ooh, who wants to get in on the ground floor of my birthday celebration next year. I put in my request for vacation time in July for next July when I turn 21. I've requested an entire week off work and I'm letting them know every chance I get that I won't be working no matter how badly they need me or for however many hours they schedule me. I'm going to rent God knows how many hotel rooms on the beach in Jacksonville, FL, and am going to make sure all expenses are paid for whomever decides they want to go and get wasted and party like the crazies we all know we are. So, if you're interested, let me know and I'll remind you just a wee bit closer to next July, b/c I'm sure we'll all forget. Then you can all put in your requests for time off and we can go cause a riot in Jax. This offer includes everyone who reads and comments in my journal. One rule, you can't go if you're not planning on having fun!!! Okay, I'll shut up now. But I am serious about this!!! Well, gotta go look at some porn now.

Forever Yours,
