Sebastian wants out onto the balcony, but it's late and I won't let him. That doesn't stop him from meowing at the sliding door though.

I didn't end up going out tonight. Nineties night would have been a blast, I'm sure, but I didn't even get off from work until almost midnight. After showering and all that, I probably would have only arrived at Lucky at around one. (And yes, after a gross evening on line, showering is definitely necessary.) Too much effort for only an hour at the club.

I was working so late tonight because I got to close. Actually, I was talked into it. Friday through Sunday I have grill shifts, and since I've only really had the one training night so far, I was a little nervous about working busy nights with such limited experience. So to remedy the situation, the night coach got me to close for him so that I could have some extra practice on grill.

It was sort of fun. Unfortunatly, some forno bills came in, and I had to figure out how to prepare some things that I've never even been trained on. Those manuals are useless when you're trying to get ten things done at once. I was a little bit stressed. Plus I haven't had to close in awhile, so heres hoping I got everything done that I was supposed to.

A new girl was trained on appetizers tonight. She was kind of cute. She's also kind of seventeen.

I feel incredibly stable right now. Perhaps it's this whole sXe thing keeping me balanced, but I feel good. Unfortunately, I don't have much for plans for the the future right now either. I want to pay off a few of my debts (I don't have much), maybe even find a new job... but beyond that one application to Green Cuisine I haven't been doing much preparation for any sort of change.

I think I'm really enjoying not having a roommate around. Actually, now that I think about it, the last time I felt really stable like this I was living alone for awhile too. I suppose I'm going to have to make the most of the next couple of weeks before he comes back. (I don't dislike him... I just do better without him always smoking and playing games around me...)

I think I need to figure out how to use my camera better. The instructions are a good starting point... but the good pictures only come with luck or a heck of a lot adjusting settings. I know how some things work, I'm just really slow at getting them to work right.

I organized all the laundry in my room the other day. There's a lot of clothes that I will never wear (cuz they won't fit, or they're just too crazy) and so I've made a big bag of stuff for donation. Even without that bag though, there's a lot of other stuff that I need to take care of. I think i have about eight loads of laundry before all my clothing and linens will be clean.

My birthday is now less than twenty four hours away. I haven't even made any solid plans since I'm the only person I know that has the day off. I'd have a party, or go do something fun, but I'm pretty much limited to doing it by myself once again this year. I at least hope to go to the club in the evening though... and maybe a lot of cool people (from work or otherwise) will come out too.

Birthdays started to suck as soon as I moved away from home. Yay for twenty one though!
