long time no update. lots has happened.
We were able to get rid of our weakest sous chef, well actually he quit. But that means we all went from working 6 and 7 day weeks to finally getting two days off.
We had a $99,000 in sales day at the restaurant.
I spent a bunch of money to go visit Pam in MN and then two weeks later we broke it off. Actually she broke it off, and I couldn't be happier. I think I was totally kidding myself into thinking it would actually work and that I wanted it to work. Deep down I know I didn't. In fact, I was trying to figure out how I was going to break it off. The last visit was all well and good, until night came and she starting drinking wine. She drinks a lot and I don't. She drinks every night, excessively, and I was never comfortable with that, even in college when we dated. That last trip to MN I really had had enough. She kept trying to be sexy and kiss me but her mouth tasting like cheap wine and I kept pushing her away. the next morning, she barely remembered half the night. I couldn't wait to get on the plane back to Chicago. We didn't talk over facetime for two weeks, and when we did she told me the anniversary of her divorce had come that week and she realized she missed her Ex. So it was over.
And then she wanted to talk again, to "clear the air". Right about that time I was working 80 hour weeks and when she started drunk texting me that I was avoiiding her I had had enough. I laid into her, pretty harshly, after a 15 hour work day during an 85 hour week. I told her I didn't give a shit about her clearing the air and that was pretty much how I left it.
All in all I couldn't be happier. I already have some good prospects, flirt constantly with a hostess at work, and have finally restarted furnishing my place. For four years I was a wreck over this girl and now I feel free of her for the first time since we dated in college.
Dragon slayed.
so i'm single . . . ladies?

Congratulations! Getting rid of a bad relationship is definitely freeing. I went through it a few years ago and couldn't have been happier afterwards.

Sounds like a change for the better, all right.
