1. I am absolutely in love with Colbie Callait’s CD “Coco.” It is just amazing. You know when you hear a song and, for whatever reason, it completely connects with things going on in your life? She has this song, “Little Things,” which seems to get to me. It’s like she’s singing a song about my life with Unofficial right now. Music always does that to me. Do you ever hear a song and it reminds you of a certain relationship? Or, do you often find yourself connecting lyrics to your life?
2. Last night, I learned that I like brussel sprouts. Growing up, we never ate them. There’s this new product out by Bird’s Eye. They are individual steam fresh packets. So, thinking that I had not ever tried brussel sprouts, I figured I should buy them and try it. If you add some butter and salt, they’re pretty ok. I’m sure the point is to NOT use salt and butter, but I’m not quite that healthy yet.
3. I keep having pregnancy dreams. Maybe it’s a good thing that Unofficial and I are not having sex.
4. Work was quite bearable today. I did a double. At lunch these little old ladies paid cash. The bill was $43-something. In the check presenter they had left $80-something. I am pretty sure that the $50 bill was meant to be a $20. They had left before I could ask them about the mistake. Lucky me! At dinner I had this table of much older gentlemen. They were a hoot. The bill came to $160-something. They paid with a credit card. Written in for a tip was $40 (pretty nice tip!) and there was an additional $20 bill in the check presenter as well. Those two tables alone I made $100… Today was nice!
5. I met a girl who I am now looking for an apartment with. She was a craig’s list find. Normal, nice, laid back. She has a cat, too. Simon will be happy to have a buddy (eventually). I am happy to have a partner to look for a place with. It makes my life a ton easier. We have an appointment to look at one place on Saturday. Hopefully she will make some more appointments for us tomorrow (I have another double).
6. Prosciutto, asiago cheese and olive oil with balsamic makes me happy. Add a glass of cabernet to that, and I’m ridiculously happy.
