Happy Independence Day - The Day After

Well, I survived the birthday.. and Independence Day too. Now it's Tuesday night, and I'm preparing (as usual) for work. Saturday night was a total hell-night - I beat both 1rst and 2nd shift in terms of inside sales and customer counts. Those folks busted my ass. I was off on Sunday (my BD) - and did the buffet/family thing at Tian's. Pretty cool afternoon. Back to work last night (Monday) and they busted my ass again. I beat 1rst & 2nd shift (again) on net sales and customer count.. And people say third shift doesn't do anything. Yeah -right!

No big news happening. Haven't seen Pa since Saturday night. He came by the store and hung out - thinking that he would stay inside the store with me whenI locked up at 3:00am - guess what? It didn't happen. I cussed him out (again) and made him leave. BJ didn't come by until after 4:00 - but it was all OK - I didn't have time to talk to anyone anyhow - it was too busy.

I wish I had something more to talk about. We had a cookout on Monday at Tian's. Over 18 people crammed in her little apartment. Tian & her kids, Tatz & her kids, me, Nunu, Ken, Crystal's friends, the neighbor psycho lady that wants to date me, her daughter, and a Paki dude (Mike) that runs the new c-store around the corner from Tian's. Oh yeah - I almost forgot Andrew (Morgan's boyfriend... sorry Andrew!) Total and utter chaos - but it was fun. And there was actually food left over - believe it or not. Everyone munched.. wnet back for seconds (and thirds) and took plates home with them... and we still had food left over. After the munchfest - half the folks went swimming and the other half played cards - Phase 10 is the game now.. I ended up stuck on Phase 7 - not bad for my first time....

Well, Youngblood is on the phone. Let me go now & I will return...
