Slow Week
This is my recuperation week. I'm only scheduled for 22 hours this week and I have all of my homework done for the rest of the quarter so I'm taking this opportunity to be a bum!
Sunday was work from 8 - 2 which was pretty much non-eventful and I came home and did not a whole heck of a lot of anything.
Monday I worked 7 - 12, after I got sent home early from work, spring break is this week and we just haven't been very busy. I came home from work with a cleaning bug. I cut out coupons from the newspaper, made a grocery list and went shopping and ran a few errands (Walgreens has 3-15packs of bottled water on for $8.00). Came home and did about 4 loads of laundry, cleaned the kitchen and the living room and the bathroom and my room, and then started packing to go home to "TheArmpitOfHell" for the night.
I left Dallas about 8pm and drove to "TheArmpitOfHell". Tuesday I took my grandmother to her weekly beauty shop appointment, went to the bank, went to Metabolic Research Center to get a starting weight on my diet I am going back on starting tomorrow, went to Pat's Gowns to try on the bridesmaid's dress for Barbara's wedding (they changed dresses), and to try on and order the bridesmaid's dress for my cousin Kara's wedding in July. I went home and ate lunch with my dad and headed back to Dallas.
I had originally planned on staying in "TheArmpitOfHell" Tuesday night and driving back in time for work this morning, but yesterday morning I got a phone call from txredgirl, who was in Arlington. I hadn't seen her since she moved to Maryland in October 2003 so of course I changed a few plans and headed back so that I was able to meet Jennie and Red for dinner last night at TrailDust Steak House (don't wear a tie) in Arlington. After dinner I went back to her hotel room for a little while to talk and catch up and then I headed home.
Work was not real eventful again today, we were slow since it is still spring break. I hate work when its slow because it makes the time pass by at such a crawl. For those of you who have never worked in a restaurant, it is a lot more fun when you are getting slammed than when there isn't a line of customers out the door.
Tomorrow, Comcast is supposed to bring me my DVR that I ordered in January before I even moved here. Everything about my experience with Comcast has been a long comedy of errors, although it has gotten to the point where it's not funny anymore.
Friday I have the morning off and I'm not quite sure I know what to do with myself until 5:30pm. I have one project left for my Sanitation class, I have to go inspect a restaurant, and I am going to inspect work at some point Friday. I am also planning on having about 100 or so resumes printed out and I'm going to go around to area businesses (office parks) and see if I can find a full time job. I love working at Panera but its just not paying the bills. I need a fulltime M-F 8 - 5 salaried-office position. Say a prayer that I find one and soon.
That will be the end of Week 9 of school. After that I will only have one more week of class and then Week 11 is finals. I hope I'm ready, and I am really looking forward to my "Spring Break."
