Tonight I don't plan on writing a lot.
This day took so much out of me. I didn't wake up when I wanted to but I still managed to shower before starting my 50 mile drive to work. And yes, I do drive all that way every time I have to work.
Oh! reason behind my title. I'm definitely listening to Burning Down the House by the the Talking Heads. You know it, and if you don't, shame on you, look it up.
Anyway when I got to work today I was supposed to be hosting (seating people). But it got so busy, and the servers can only handle so many tables. When each server had 6 tables they made me go serve too.
I like serving because of the money but I really just wanted a break. It is a lot of work. And for all you Mr. Pinks out there, you better tip, and be nice to your waitress. You don't understand the stress until you've done it.
So I took three tables and made $14 in about an hour. When the rush was over I was allowed to go back to hosting, thank goodness.
When I drove home my wonderful uncle was in town. I met him at his hotel and we headed to walmart, he wanted to look at laptops because he wants a new one. He wasn't very impressed with walmarts.. but since I live in a tiny town its kinda all we had to offer.
Hmm, after that.. we went to a steakhouse that was up the canyon a bit, just out of cell service. He likes to take me to places that I couldn't afford without him. My steak was $25! Which is outrageous! I looked at him all wide eyed and told him that is about as much I spend on food in a week. He merely laughed..
We talked and enjoyed our meal. Which was amazing. That steak was like butter. Then we basically drove around the rest of the night.
I love when he comes out, he inspires me. And makes me want to do random things like pack a few sandwiches and just drive. And end up wherever I end up. He says he does that all the time. I would love to do that. Don't worry about a thing, right Bob?
Sorry tonight's entry was more of a journal than my deep thoughts. I just had a great day, with almost too many thoughts.
I would love to hear from you guys though, if you're reading, comment and let me know, that way I know I'm not just talking to myself. Have a great night you guys!
