An Untitled Mess

Today I finally had a day off.  Whew, thank goodness.  I got to sleep in.  That wasn't the plan.  The plan was actually to wake up early and drive to the beach to go for a run.  Yeah, right.  Wishful thinking full of good intentions.  What actually happened was I couldn't get out of bed so I just kept going back to sleep until I didn't feel exhausted any more. I did a small amount of cleaning then I headed into town with a Yeti full of hot coffee.  I stopped at a shoe store, because I really need new shoes.  I was going to get some about 6 or 7 months ago but didn't find a pair that I liked in my size.  I gave it another shot today.  Found some white Vans that were pretty fly but I had some reservations about buying white shoes.  Also, I knew if I got white Vans, I would never hear the end of, "Damn, Daniel." Bumpers told me that Rack Room Shoes was having a BOGO sale so I shot over there to peep the lick.  It would...

It's just what I do...saving babies and all.  No, no, please, hold your applause.  I'm just doing what anyone in my position would do.  In that sense, we are all heroes, not just me.  We share this moment together - you and me, me and you...us.  Remember, there is no "I" in "TEAM".  There is a "ME", but that's beside the point.  Today is about "US"...U...S...A?  Maybe an A?  Anyone out there Canadian, eh?  Who knows, but soak it up, you.  You deserve this.

It was a weird day, indeed.  Had to go in early to work this morning because of two catering orders we had to fill and one of our guys that was suppose to work today called out.  It was funny how just that extra thirty minutes threw me off today but at least I got a few more hours than I would usually have.  Plus it was pay day so...yeah, can't complain.  We had a party of about fifteen older women in today and they had a guy that came in with a guitar to sing to them while they were eating.  Not sure management was too thrilled even though they obviously had to give the green light for it.  This led to two awkward situations. First, the woman I was working with today mentioned that maybe I should try and pick up one of the older women from the party.  I said that just wouldn't work out.  She asked if I had a problem with older women, which I replied that I did not and that in fact I had been with an older woman for about nine months.  The ...
