Can't Take The Heat? Move Outta The State...

Today, it was hot. So fricken hot. But I feel like Quentin Tarantion, starting with the end first, so let me back up to yesterday.

Friday was nice because usually it's my day off and I get to lay around with the mother [who has off on Friday's now too] and the tiny sister, but mother and father we're going out for the afternoon/evening and left around noon, and the sister was around the neighborhood hanging with friends. So I had the house to myself and was able to catch up on DVR'd stuff and watch Bottle Shock, with Alan Rickman. It was so good and of course all I wanted to do after that was drink loads of wine, but I picked up a shift that night so no wine.

Went to work in good spirits because you have to when you work Friday nights. Friday nights are the nights to work, because there are 3 servers plus just someone who does to go stuff, because usually we're mad crazy busy. But it rained like the second coming, so it wasn't that busy, I was getting this major headache out of no where, and then I dropped a wine glass, which just put me in a sorrier mood.

Got some dinner from work, on my drive home talking to a friend, the rain was still crazy, and the headache was almost blinding it was so bad. Got home and the family was like, "Are you ok? You are terribly pale?" So it was decided, have a few bites of dinner [or what I felt like I could hold down] , shower and then bed. I never get sick, so when I do it's always insane.

Turns out I guess I just needed sleep and food [I didn't really have dinner Friday night, just some popcorn, and the few bites after like 8 pm] And my mother keeps saying how I'm my father's daughter, and I need more sleep than others. I think it was the food thing, because people know that as long as I push through the yawns and tired eyes, sooner or later I perk up. So needless to say, I'm addicted to food and if I don't have it I get sick. In bed by 9:45.

Saturday morning comes at 7:00 when the tiny sister comes in to inform me of the yard sale we're having today. I'm feeling way better but would just love the extra sleep since I will be a working today. But no, someone [who I'm not sure, although I'm guessing my mother.] bangs on the door at 7:30 to wake me up. So up and at'em at 7:30 is the way I started my Saturday.

Lesson #9768712 in life: Don't have yard sales in summer months. It was like a bajillion degrees at 8 this morning. It was nuts how sister and I were just dying, hoping and praying someone would come along and say "Here is a million dollars, can I buy all your stuff?" We passed the time with another game of rummy [I won.] and drinking water. Then it was time for work.

I worked from from 10:30 am to 8:30 pm today. It was good, nothing too crazy this morning, and then it was pretty steady tonight. But good lord it got hot sometimes. Standing too close to the ice machine, being next to the oven, having to walk outside for anything, was all just too much because of how hot it was. Then of course it started raining again like out of some scary movie, or many it's just Florida and hurricane season? Anyways rain turned into hale and it almost looked like it was snowing, which made me happy [I miss snow.] but after the rain of course the sun comes out and make the city all hot and humid again.

Random? Rambling? It's all up in the air. After getting home this evening, we did Father's Day stuff since the papa will be traveling to Hawaii tomorrow for work, which is exciting because he's never been before, and I've been drinking wine since then.

So over all grade for the day? B+. Here are a few funny things that happened today....

1. A boy at work [had to be about 8] was there with older relatives and such, while I was about to walk away from the table from taking their order, one of the women said, 'And make sure he gets the bill.' While we laughed about it, he got all flustered saying, 'BUT I DON'T HAVE ANY MONEY! HOW WILL I PAY FOR THIS?!?' I walked away from the table having everyone calm him down, making sure he knew it a joke. Kids are hilarious.

2. A girl at another table calling her friends, asking if they had seen the weather. She was really scared about the rain/hale and wanted to make sure all her friends knew where she was, she kept saying 'We're stuck in this restaurant. I don't know how we're getting home.' Well miss, how about you just wait a little bit until it lightens up? People who are scared of weird things make me happy.

3. People at yard sales. If we are at the end of the driveway, that means all that we're selling is in front of us. Nothing in the garage is for sale. Here are things people actually said today and what I wish I could have said to them...
-Is that lawnmower for sale? [No crazy, it's in the garage, why would we be selling anything that's 30 feet behind us?]
-You're not selling any furniture? [Do you see any furniture here? Among the books, random nicknacks, and clothes, do you see any furniture?] "No we're not" You don't have anything in the house you want to sell? [I swear they said this, crazy get off our driveway you're making me nervous.]
-So you're not selling any small TVs? [You just walked around and looked at everything we're selling, do you think we're hiding it, waiting for someone to ask about the small TVs? Get outta here crazy.]
-So you're getting rid of these screens. Wouldn't that be amazing if they were the right size [he says to a women sitting shotgun in his truck] 'Yeah we'll do like a buck a piece [sidenote: they are massive screens that my parents had extra off.] A dollar? Yeah I can't do that. [What? A dollar? Really sir, get outta here with your crazy self.]

I think that's it? Finishing this wine, maybe roam the house a bit, and then it's time for bed. Gotta do the Mass thing in the morning, then it's a whole bunch of nothing till, yup it's Sunday, improv!

Shout out to Stephanie who is only days away from making her move to South Carolina. I'm so excited and can't wait to hear all the awesome stories that she has :) And trust me people, she's gonna have stories.

Happiness is making $178 in 2 days. I'll take it.

Love me like I love wine. Red, white, or pink. I like it all. Morning, noon, or night. It's good anytime...
