Today was slow at work but hectic for me. I emailed my realtor Art yesterday to set up an appointment for tomorrow to see a couple of houses. Well Art decided to drive passed one of them this morning since it was near his house and he called me right afterward saying we had to come see it today because we'd love it and it prolly would get scooped ( Read more... )

It's just a sequence of events. "And then I did this, and then we went here, and then we did this..." "And then? And then? And then?" "No and then!!!!" So I'm not a deep thinker. Oh well. I'm not going to pretend to be some hyper-intellectual who has people awaiting anxiously for their next journal entry just so they can get responses like "Wow, ( Read more... )

Congress (today) passed a bill dubbed the "cheeseburger bill" officially called the Personal Responsibility in Food Consumption Act (click to read more) to stop frivolous lawsuits such as the ones that the two teenage girls brought against McDonald's stating eating their food caused them to be obese and have diabetes. The news came to us and wanted ( Read more... )

I'm happy that kastastrophe is coming from New York in a week and a half for Fiesta. It will be awesome to finally meet her. She'll be the first person I've met "in real life" from this internet thing. My cousin Perry is coming back (from Holland) those days also ( Read more... )

As I was about to leave work, this cute guy walks in wearing a shit load of gear. I said, "Youth hostel?" And he said smart-alecky, "Yeah, how could you guess I was a backpacker?" Gee, I think the plethora of backpacks gave it away. hee ( Read more... )

Toady was a nice day at work. Hired a new girl because Ami is a flake. She starts on Monday. The Independents stopped in for lunch. It was really great to see them and see that they are all okay after the horrible crash they had in England late last year. We were suppose to go see them play last night at Sanctuary but were too worn out. I was ( Read more... )

I rode my bike to work. The weather has been gorgeous again. Sales have been awesome despite slow ticket times due to the incompetence of the kitchen. Today the times were better but the lunch rush wasn't much of a "rush" like we expected. Instead it was steady/busy throughout the whole day. It's Spring Break here so we're getting a lot of tourist ( Read more... )

I got to work at 7am this morning because we were hosting another 5K run and supplying the tacos. This one was for Elvis's birthday. I was hoping to see a couple of Elvi but no such luck ( Read more... )

Yesterday morning I was in the office (it's a separate building) counting money and getting the cashier's drawers ready for the day when I heard a knock on the door. I figured it was one of the kids saying I had a phone call (usually a telemarketer or some crap). When I opened the door I saw Rob (our head cook whose last day is Saturday). He said ( Read more... )

This morning I woke up around 6:45 all snotty-like. I couldn't fall back to sleep and I didn't want to wake Ed up with my sniffling, sneezing and fidgeting so I decided to head to work even though it's my day off. We were hosting a 5K run for the Toys For Tots program and I knew they could definitely use the extra hand. Every year we host about 7 ( Read more... )
