Let's see, this weekend was semi-lame. I worked Friday, which was great, but Saturday sucked bad. I only had one table all night, this trashy bridal shower that was beyond belief bad. Not only did they arrive two hours before their reservation to hang two streamers and place a cake on a table, but they were annoying the ENTIRE time they were there and they shorted me $40! I knew there was trouble right away because they all wanted separate checks (for 15 when I'm pretty sure that normally the maid of honor picks up the tab normally. Am I right?) but when I came back with all the checks there were only about 5 of them still there. That sucked. So Saturday was a total wash. I made $37 and was there for 9 hours! If I didn't have those skanks and had just taken regular tables I would have made at least double that.
So basically because I made no money on Saturday I had to go directly to Pete's and tell them I couldn't do the special dinner we were supposed to have tonight. More on that later. Anyway, at Pete's I chilled with a girl I work with and told her about my nightmare evening. She told me that she was the one who booked the reservation and that two of the women had been at the restaurant to check it out and she knew they were going to be trouble. Anyway, then I left without getting a sixpack for the first time since they restocked. Since February began I emptied that thing out. Then there were just crappy six packs left and I was like "Whaaaaaaaat?" So it got restocked, but without Sam Winter, which is a bummer.
Sunday I helped my Mom go over her bills and figured out exactly how much money she owes to, well, everything. Really it's nowhere near as bad as I thought it would be, so that was cool. So we felt very relieved. I was so relieved, because this had been on miy mind for a very long time. Nobody hates money problems more than me and I'm pretty good at avoiding them because I'm constantly looking forward. Anyway, then I went to Borders to get the Tim & Eric season 2 DVD. That's really good. I'm not sure if I mentioned borrowing season 1 from Ryan, but I did and that's awesome too. Great job! I've also been watching more Mr. Show lately too. I'm trying to get one of my friends into it and tonight she texted me asking about it. What I want to say is "Hey, want to watch some eps sometime?" But right now that's not cool. Man do I want to burn through some episodes with my friend though............................ Holy smokes.
So tonight I found out the dinner thing ended up getting cancelled because in the last two weeks 4 people dropped out. So anyway, that blows, but the thing was supposed happen twice already and if it had happened two weeks ago as it was first supposed to, I would totally have done it. By the time it rolled around to actually end up being this week, everything was just fucked up. Relationships had broken down, tensions were high, money was low. Some participants weren't or aren't on speaking terms. I can't wait to go to Austin right now. I love being here right now, but in another sense I'd rather be anywhere else. Things could break good or bad and it could take a long time to know. I'm thinking things are going to break bad and I'll be very sad about that. In a way I'm already sad about it and it hasn't even gotten crummy yet. In fact right now things are great. However, clouds loom and I want to run away.
