So much going on…

I woke this morning to a gray, rainy day. And I’m fine with it. I have BIG plans today. Sewing! My super secret gift for someone. Sure to lead to a post about how annoying sewing is. Guaranteed.

The same person I blamed in my “I’m Sorry” post is still making his mark. He’s totally rad. His involvement in my life has inspired me and given me a new perspective on a number of things. ‘Nuff said.

I have a very busy week & end of month coming up. I’m trying to put off going into full stressed-out mode until at least Wednesday, if not later. But my event on Friday is creeping up and there is so much to do! So what am I doing to start off the week? Not working on the event! I’m giving myself a well deserved night off to go have dinner with an old, dear friend. She comes to town every few months and usually she just stops by My Living Room. But this time, we’re going to dinner and Monday can’t get here soon enough.

As soon as Friday and that event are over I have to start planning The Organization’s annual meeting. Changes are coming and it’s going to be an interesting meeting, followed by an awesome dinner.

Then what, you ask? Then I have two days to prepare & pack for FLORIDA! And FAMILY! And my favorite puppy on the planet! I can’t wait! Oh, and the Madonna concert… I don’t know about anyone else, but seriously, when I see pictures of her at her concerts, she looks like a scary, old hag.

But soon enough I’ll be back and we’ll be headed into December! So soon. Geez. Oh, and I may make an appearance at a flag football game the weekend after Thanksgiving. Where I’m sure to make an ass of myself in public. Love it.

Empty.

That’s what the bar was last night. EMPTY. And by empty, I mean max patrons 14. For about 2 hours. I worked for 8 hours. Also for a different 2 hours, there were my friend HB and I. Alone. Just us. I think I have like 15 top scores on the newly reset Mega-Touch machine. That’s what happens when it’s dead. I sit and reinforce my MegaCrack addiction. It’s bad, hasn’t been this bad lately.

Viking, my co-worker and I, totally thought around midnight or so, we’d get some kind of rush. We didn’t. All we dealt with was some dude that uses a sundial as a watch. Srsly. A cigar box sundial. Ridiculous. But Hat Fetish guy (HF) was all about the cigar box guy. So that basically entertained us from like 11pm till 1:30. Until the sundial guy suddenly got mad at HF. Long story, but apparently sundial dude thought he had a new job. Insanity.

It was honestly the 2nd worst night I’ve ever had there. The worst was a Sunday when it was me, and um, me. And maybe 3 customers. I made $10.

Last night I made $25. Thanks. That’s great. Since I have the job only b/c it’s FUN. My bills and stuff can wait… Totally.

Overall, this Halloween weekend has been a MAJOR FAIL. I’d like to go back about a week and rearrange my life, because I should have worked Friday night. And if I could go back, I’d have totally rocked the house waiting on all those people. I’d rather be the bartender than judge the costume contest, which is what I did. Badly. Way to go Bender!!

Pictures to follow, if I ever come up with cash to pay for the processing!

And here’s to a much better week. Rock on.
