Wow, it's been a while since I posted. I've really been focusing my time on the shop and trying to hone my abilities, so pretty much everything else has taken a back seat for a while. Sorry if people have been posting journals in the past nearly-two weeks. I haven't been around to read them.

Rough night, and morning so far. That's all I can say. Though April personally thanked me for the comment I made on her set, so it's not a total wash.

sorry about your rough a.m....maybe this will cheer you up! 
your sign..Hearth
direction..west--accent on feelings, emotions, and relationships; on personal matters of security.

flower..indian blanket

"hearth is the roots of the Tree of Life--the Caldera of the True Believer, a beacon to the weary traveler. this is a person who, in the all enveloping nothingness of night, and remembers that light and life are not dead."
a centered person with a strong territorial instinct, who draws specific boundary lines--mental, physical, and emotional. this is a sign whose origins are in the heart of the mountain, who never particularly cared for what was on the other side...not a traveller. they are very organized and labor patiently, are excellent leaders and have subtle ways of exerting power. these people love history and tradition.

"persons of this sign are usually the center, the core, the very pulse of the people."
enjoy..take care!

Of course not! Instead we have ten families come in around 5:00, spend fifteen minutes a pop ordering their crap, spending thirty bucks, and not tipping us anything. And...

eegads!! sounds like a bad night!! i have to agree that the general public are complete morons most of the time. and i came to this conclusion after working in the restaurant business. i can sympathize with you tho...a bad night in a restaurant is a really bad night.
can you post a sign that your employees work for tips?
i worked in a coffee shop in santa fe, nm. i kinda miss it. we had fun. it was just drinks, no food...so not as much hassle.
take care!
