Tick tock...


Ok, so even thought I am NO WHERE close to being prepared to go on tour, and I have about 75 THOUSAND things that I need to get done before I leave...
I'm ready to go!
I'm tired of waiting. I need to get all my shit together - cause I am ready to get the hell out of here and doing something new. it just seems that everything around me is screaming for me to GO GO GO!
Only a few more weeks. Wow, I really SHOULD get some stuff done! :)

A brush with the law...


Well, yesterday was a crazy day on the road! On my way to work, I got stopped by a state trooper for not having my seat belt on. Well, it's all good, I apologize, give him my license, blah blah blah. Well, then he asks for insurance and registration. HA! I open my glove comparment and about 5 of the GAYEST CD's fall out - Kelly Clarkson, Rhianna, Cher, Rupaul, and some other mix CD! Well, besides that, I can't find anything. I'm fumbling through papers, and finally I find the registration - and an EXPIRED insurance card. He lets me off with a ticket for the seatbelt, and that's all ... thank God!


Then, on my way HOME, I'm just driving along, and I look in my rearview mirror to find this...



Oh, that's right. There was a man BRUSHING HIS TEETH in the truck behind me. And he was just going at it, too! He then spit into a Coke can. It was priceless!

Stop


Stop.
No more.
Done.
The end.

Big Mo'


Hmm ... Dale Earnheart Jr. has some explaining to do.
He called his new candy bar Big Mo'.
I dunno about you, but I'm dying to put a Big Mo' in my mouth! ;)

Allergies!



I hate my allergies!

Almost as much as I hate the huge tree that keeps dumping the pollen covered things all over my house and car.

Ugh!

Walk it out!

Watch this! I'm so learning this so I can do it at the club! HOLLA!


A morning in hell...


Ok, life sucked this morning.
So, after a wonderful day at work yesterday, I opened again today. Well, one of the people that were supposed to open didn't show up, so I gave her a call.
Well, she's having some family issues at the moment, and our manager told her that she didn't have to worry, that we'd get it all taken care of.
Well, my manager covered her shift yesterday, but falied to do it for the shift this morning. So, we are a person short! Wee.
Well, I call my manager this morning to see what's up - and her phone goes straight to voicemail. I hate this. I mean, she NEVER seems to answer the phone. What if I was in an accident? Or the store had been broken into? Lady needs to answer her damn phone. I mean - YOU MANAGE A FREAKIN' STARBUCKS!
So, the day begins - and things are ok.
Until the rush hits.
Now we get a rush every morning, and with 3 people, it's pretty hard. Today was insane! Doing that a person short was HELL, not to mention the fact people were being RIDICULOUS this morning. Like a lady coming in RIGHT in the middle of a rush and wanting a coffee traveler and 15 pastries. COME ON!
I tried the best I could. I just hate when people can see that I am insanely frustrated, that there are drinks lined up, that we are doing the best we can ... and they just STARE me down, like it's gonna make things move faster. UGH!
Anyway, my manager decides to call at 9. I called her at 5 this morning. She asks why I didn't try calling anyone. I CALLED YOU BITCH! The person RESPONSIBLE for this madness!
Well, I didn't talk to her. I called in one of the other shifts and he came over to help. He pretty much told her that she screwed me over this morning.
I, on the other hand, called our district manager and told her about this madness. She agreed with me whole heartedly.
And, after being in hell ... we still did a good job this morning, seeing about a person a minute. Take that!

A shift with a view...


So, today was a great day.
Lucky for me, my manager scheduled her and I to open the store today. So that meant that I could be just a barista for the day - no having to be in charge or anything!
So, I was in the drive thru ALL DAY! And ya know what? I don't see why the other people that work there complain that they are always in the drive thru. I had a GREAT day!
All I did was stand there, take orders, and talk to people at the window. ALL 8 HOURS of my shift. I mean, what's so difficult about that?
And, I must brag and say that I was upselling the SHIT out of stuff today. I rock!
I need more days like that!

The best of both worlds!


Ok, I'll admit.
I like Hannah Montana!
You know, when I flip through the channels and see it on the Disney channel ... I can't help myself. Well, that kinda goes for all Disney channel shows.
And hell, she's cute. That wig ... it's total drag queen!
So, Jon got me the CD because we both have some major love for this girl. I love that "See You Again" song - and actually, some of the other songs are pretty catchy, too!
So, I'm a Fan-a-Hannah Montana! HAHA!
