Work Work Work

Angela & I had a party of 40 people tonight...it was ok, but we got no other tables all night. It was pretty fun at first. We got to sit around & plan our party strategy... I mean sit. At work. But that got old after a while. We got there at 4:00, & the party wasn't until 7:00! That's 3 hours of nothingness. Geeze. We ended up making $30 apiece. (The owner added on a 18% gratuity). Then we each gave one of the 2 bus boys $5 for having to clean up that mess.

Anyhow...my favorite cook got fired tonight. He's my buddy & I'm going to miss him so much. I cried. I really, really tried not to, but I couldn't help it. It's going to be so boring without him. Who's gonna make funny fish faces at me when I'm sad? :confused

Oh well. I have to be back at work at 8 am... & since we had a Million things to do tonight, we were there until around 11:00. I have a 15 minute drive... & I'm still in my nasty work clothes. eewww.

Blah Blah Blah

Hiya. Nothing really going on, just saying hi... :laugh

My domain got registered today. I have to go sign up for my hosting & get going on it. I just am drawing a blank on the color scheme & look. This place is different, I can do anything I want because it's a part of me. This new one will have to appeal to people. :whyme Yuck. Lets hope I can come up with something I can stand to look at that other people will like. I am a bubbly colorful type person...you know.

Well did I tell you what domain name I picked!!? I think I did. But I'm saying again just in case. FreeYourMindDesigns.com because I like it, & I love the Matrix...so, it fits. I'm gonna go sign up my hosting. Or...maybe design something. Geeze. I'll probably go watch cartoons, who am I kidding!?

Just a few words of advice...

if you work with me & want to continue a nice working atmosphere.

#1. If you are in a managerial position-don't ask me for a ride home. Unless you are a woman.

#2. If you braided your own hair...big fat friggin woop. Tell me once if you're that proud, I say, "oh really, it looks nice" Tell me again, & I'm subject to rude comments. "I KNOW, you already told me that." Tell me one more time, & it's coming out.

#3. If you are new, & this is the second time I've met you (& you keep talking about your braid) please don't tell me that you have kids, but they aren't living with you. Unleess you're a man, that just doesn't fly with me. Don't drag out a picture of when she was 3 months old & is now3 years old & expect me to get excited... it's just wrong. I have kids, they are my whole world. Why aren't yours?!

#4. If you are this same new girl...please don't tell me you had a career as a nurse & screwed it up because you were a "bad girl" & then proceed to tell every customer that walks in. Ok, you have a felony. Whatever. Great! That says a lot about you. Now shut-up.

#5. If you are this same new girl...PLEASE don't be mean to the cooks & the hostesses. They are my friends & it really pisses me off. !@#$% :irked

#6. If you are this other new girl please don't tell me that one of the cooks looks just like your ex & you want to punch him. That's just strange. :snide
Ummm, thanks.

King Tut

CNN has an article about scientists & special effect people recreating King Tuts face, & I must say...he's beautiful. But I've always been fascinated by that mask. Ooh! Discovery.com has a 360 degree view!

This is cool...If you want to see your name in hieroglyphs you can go here.

The effects of a bucket of bleach water...

& Sponge Bob! Ok.. I left my sponge mop in a bucket a bleach water over night, & it' was like a sticky wormy looking thing. Really gross. Which made me wonder....what if someone dropped Sponge Bob Square Pants in a bucket of bleach water over night?! The effect I think would look something like this...

Ok, I really need to get a life!

My Mom...

You know, just finished her radiation & chemo for Breast cancer...now her Dr. says she has the starting of Osteoporosis. I guess her Blood Pressure is way up too. She says that the pills are really expensive, & she doesn't know what she's going to do. She said maybe I should make her a webpage so people can send her money...because that lady that ran up her credit card bills is getting all kinds of money. I don't know if she's kidding or not?! (About making the page) :snide

Who ARE these people?

Got this in my mailbox this morning...

"Jewels,
I submitted the question, "How many feet are in a mile?" Your reply was "Maybe". What gives?"

Well... since I have to spell it out for you...

I haven't written back yet, I suppose I'll look it up & let him/her know, because it was worded very nicely. But come ON. :snide

Say it aint so!

Yep, I've finally caved in & am downloading Netscape. Ok, 7.0 how scary is that? I think I'd prefer 5, but we'll see. Although it's been nice living in my IE world, if I'm going to be doing work for other people, I might want to have something besides IE on here. My question is...why do I have to shut Zone Alarm down to download it? I'm sorry the whole Netscape thing really gets to me now... I feel like I am caving in to AOL in some way, & I don't wanted to get started on AOHell. :whyme
