The 11 dollar man...

Ok, so we all know I'm waitressing now right...? So last week this guy comes in & sits at the back counter. Orders a fish fry which is 7.95 plus a Pepsi, which is 1.65 so his bill is around $10.00 right? Well the girls were all freaking out because he left me an 11 dollar tip! Woah...now this is just strange. I figured maybe he didn't pay his bill...so I went & checked. No, he paid it. How cool is that? Well he came in again tonight. Sat in my section, which was in smoking tonight. Way in the back. The guy doesn't smoke... I realize like around dessert time that he's "that" guy. Kinda pudgy, longish grey/blonde hair. Hard to describe, but I guess he reminds me of Drew Carey minus the glasses with longer hair. So, he leaves, & sure enough...eleven dolars again. It's funny because it was the same as last time.... 5 dollar bill on the bottom, 3 singles on top of the 5, & 3 dollars in quarters all stacked neatly. Same exact thing last week.

So anyhow...it's really, really cool that he leaves me the tip...I just keep wondering why...& why the way he does it. Very strange. Maybe I'll talk to him next Friday?

No, don't talk to him! At least let him do it a few more times :)

Really? You think? I just keep thinking maybe he's like a serial killer type... like a pattern that the cops are looking for. I really think I've seen one too many Profiler episodes. heh.

**Welcome to my life...**
Do you ever feel like breaking down? Do you ever feel out of place? Like somehow you just don't belong And no one understands you Do you ever want to run away? Do you lock yourself in your room? With the radio on turned up so loud That no one hears you screaming No you don't know what it's like When nothing feels alright You don't know what it's like to be like me To be hurt To feel lost To be left out in the dark To be kicked When you're down To feel like you've been pushed around To be on the edge of breaking down And no one's there to save you No you don't know what it's like Welcome to my life Do you wanna be somebody else? Are you sick of feeling so left out? Are you desperate to find something more Before your life is over? Are you stuck inside a world you hate? Are you sick of everyone around? With the big fake smiles and stupid lies While deep inside you're bleeding No you don't know what it's like When nothing feels alright You don't know what it's like to be like me To be hurt To feel lost To be left out in the dark To be kicked When you're down To feel like you've been pushed around To be on the edge of breaking down And no one's there to save you No you don't know what it's like Welcome to my life No one ever lied straight to your face And no one ever stabbed you in the back You might think I'm happy But I'm not gonna be ok Everybody always gave you what you wanted You never had to work it was always there You don't know what it's like What it's like To be hurt To feel lost To be left out in the dark To be kicked When you're down To feel like you've been pushed around To be on the edge of breaking down And no one's there to save you No you don't know what it's like (what it's like) To be hurt To feel lost To be left out in the dark To be kicked When you're down To feel like you've been pushed around To be on the edge of breaking down And no one's there to save you No you don't know what it's like Welcome to my life Welcome to my life Welcome to my life
