Like a Snowball Rolling Down a Hill

I'm tired again tonight. I'm tired a lot, turns out. One more day of school. Yes! So, today. . .

Well I was startled awake at 0700 by my evil alarm. I must have reset it on Tuesday morning and just forgotten. Dangit. I turned it off angrily (I surprisingly didn't throw anything) and hopped back underneath the warm covers. I woke up again a bit after 1100 and decided to get outta bed. I hopped on the world wide web for a little bit and then ate some lunch a little after noon. After that it was Math homework time and I worked on that til 1530. I have 1 1/2 lessons left and I'm done with Math lessons FOREVER!

O, interesting note: I was watching some of the good ol' ANGELS IN THE OUTFIELD today on STARZ and was amazed at who is in it. Along with Danny Glover, Joseph Gordon-Levitt (the THIRD ROCK kid) Christopher Lloyd, Dermot Mulroney, and Tony Danza, a young Adrien Brody (The Pianist) and a clean-shaven Matthew McConaughey make appearances as players for the team. Incredible!

Got ready for work and headed out. I was there at 1630 and was prepared to put Monday night behind me and just work my tush off like always. It was going good until evil occurred! Actually, it was just awful timing. Every host does this and I just got "caught" so to speak, but it is logical! We had a bunch of 2's and 3's on the waiting list, with the occasional 4. When this happens, we often have at least three six-top tables open. Thus, when a party of 5 or 6 comes in, we seat them right away. Ok? Ok. Well it just makes sense. Why have them wait and seat a party of 2 awkwardly at a six-top table. The other night when Heather, Aimee, and I went in we sat at a six-top, and it was just weird. I wouldn't want this again. Well, tonight marked the first time that somone complained. This awful woman comes up and says snottily, "Why are THEY getting sat before us when we were here first?" Well Erin decided to walk up right then (of course) and I got it. After that, it was a brief moment of unnecessary comments by her, and I just took it in stride.

Whatever.

It just seems like I can do nothing right. I guess Erin asked Jacque (this is the host, not Chelsea's friend) if I was being bossy and a problem and Jacque (thanks Jacque!) told her that we work well together and that I'm good at hosting. Erin apparently appeared disappointed. I think she's looking for a reason to get me outta there. A little birdy told me that she's leaving soon (YES!) so she might try to get me out first. Let's hope not.

But now I'm ready for bed and gonna try to head there shortly. Hope all is well for all of you and yours. Remember: 17 Shopping Days til Christmas. . . Holy Crap! When am I gonna do that?!?!

(Enter title of tonight's blog here)

Nothing comes in ones. It's all in groups. Hang on folks. This is just the beginning!

Hey man. I miss you! It's been a long time since we've chatted. We need to have an AIM pow wow pretty soon.
