Ok, since my last post (my birthday post months ago) the following has happened
My checks started bouncing from the restaurant I was working at (Mexicasa)
I was down to making $20 in a dinner shift (why do you have 5 servers when there is NO business; teeny restaurant)
I went to a bar called Edna's and asked if they were hiring... by some miracle; they were.
I now work at Edna's Place; OKC's best Dive Bar (as voted by OKC residents) with the best signature drink (also voted by those same great people). I average about $160 a night.
I went to Florida to see my sister-in-law and nephews; and then we drove to NC to visit my grandparents.
On the way up I crashed into a guard rail going 70 mph on I-75. Totaled the car; but everyone is ok.
While in NC I managed to step on two rusty nails; one in each foot; had to go get a tetanus shot. I also broke my cell phone.
Got back to OKC and my laptop gave me the finger.
So I said screw you laptop, and purchased a 22" HD touch screen HP PC. All in the screen, no tower. And, in case you were worried about portability; I also purchased a new 10.2" netbook. I love them both; we are all very happy together.
So that's the where have I been update; of course there are minor other details, like I start school next week and I just got a commission for $1000. Sweet sauce I tell you.
The boy's 30th birthday is next week. I am planning him a surprise party. And I got him a Kitchen Aid mixer (which normally run $299; but I had a 20% off coupon for Bed Bath and Beyond.. which turns out are good for one per item.. but you can bring 50 of them in and use them on each purchase.. trust me I know... the lady in front of me in line did it) Anyway; I saved a lot of money and I didn't have to stress about paying for the present because a good Friday night will pay for it.
Anyway; I'm back in action... and addicted to the True Blood show as well as the books; AWESOME!
