soggy

first of all, please go visit ninsi and see if you can figure out this freaking riddle thing.

it is raining. again. in oklahoma. in august.

this is obsurd, i tell ya. unlike me, my weather pixie has her umbrella today. argh. on top of it raining in the summertime, i left my umbrella at home. don't get me wrong -- we need the rain, and i like it sometimes... you know, like when i'm sleeping or i'm off work and can lay around all day -- but it's just bizzare to have this much rain in the summer time here. it makes me very frightened as to how our winter will be. we okies cannot handle cold weather well. i have heard it say that our seasons here are summer, summer, summer, and winter for about 3 weeks. we seem to have a bit of spring this year. RAIN, RAIN GO AWAY. i don't even know what to wear from day to day, but hey - that makes it interesting i suppose. all i know, is God promised never to flood the earth again, so i'm convinced it won't rain too much more.

timmy has a recent post about phrases he hates. i don't so much have a phrase, but i hate it so much when people pronounce "supposedly" - supposeBly. there is NO "B" in that word!! UGH. i also hate it when guys give you "the nod" as opposed to opening their mouth to say hello, or even smiling. that makes me want to walk up and slap the cockiness out of them. guy to guy nods --- totally acceptable. but boys, do not "nod" to girls -- it is rude.

i worked last night, had a 25 top that i shared with another server. the party was managers from an italian restaurant chain here in the mid-west called Zio's. we were there for 3 hours, got to sample their new wine they are introducing this month, and walked away with 120 bucks. i love waiting tables. we eat there (at zio's) at least once a week, and they gave us free appetizer coupons in addition to the nice fatty tip. i would like to quit corporate america and just wait tables again. it is so fun. when you wait tables for a living, it is all about the partying. the whole crew parties, with the exception of a few fun haters. i partied away a few years of my life while waiting tables, and it was some of the most fun i've ever had. work for a few hours, have cash in your pocket, go booze it up with friends, and not have to work again until 4 or 5pm the next night. all jobs should have these requirements.

back to work for me... more later!
