Now Playing: Alanis Morissette's "All I Really Want"
what's up America? it's been a while, but don't worry, i haven't forgotten you. i've been scouring this land of opportunity, looking for a place of employment. and i've found one.
i'm a server at Olive Garden.
i finished my training last night and my first official shift is tomorrow. so far, i love my job. yeah, it's stress. but it's good stress, something smart people call "eustress." i'm working with professionals who have demands and guidelines for me to work within and i love it! and i love working with the people (both the guests and fellow employees). i'm almost ashamed to say this is my first "secular" job. i dig it though, i really do.
we got our first wedding present yesterday! the Millers (gimme a "woot-woot" Waterloo!) sent us a lovely Mission-style coat rack. we've found the perfect wall for it in my apartment (soon to be "our apartment") and will be hanging it shortly, pending landlord approval.
i'm enjoying Turkey Day (which, according to my pastor, is the only "absolutely American holiday" -- i guess he forgot about July 4th, President's Day, and Martin Luther King Jr Day and National Talk Like a Pirate Day). i slept in, rolled out of bed, shaved my head (no, not clean), watched Grosse Point Blank, started some laundry, and came over to the 'rents house and had some good cookin'.
enjoy yo' day, America, you don't get any more! ;)
