If you’d like another pair of eyes, feel free to dm it to me. I probably wouldn't get to it until tomorrow morning, but it’d likely be before your day really gets started.

I'll shoot it over

So its Thursday, I missed my scheduled Monday posting. 

But I had a real good reason. 

With my new story, I am forcing myself to write/right outside of my comfort zone. There is a really hard scene, it should be dramatic, nerve racking, but I think its falling short. 

I am not accustomed to writing those types of scenes. I feel its missing real tension. But the more I tinker with it, the more I feel like I'm pushing a boulder up a hill. It's like I'm an ostrich, trying to bury my head in the sand, except there isn't any sand, and I'm standing on concrete cement. 

My head hurts. 

On a separate note, I stayed in a Holiday Inn Express so I could probably do brain surgery on myself. 

 

I just assumed Percy and Five got too busy in the bedroom and forgot to tell you what they were up to and you didn’t know what to write. Lol.   Maybe they tied up that crazy SOB Ethan and whipped the tar out of him.  Or, maybe they dressed him up in a giant furry squirrel suit and sat him outside and let the squirrels run a train on him.   See, this is what happens when I don’t get a new chapter to read….my mind starts running crazy on me hahaha.

So @Lee Wilson, I shared the document with you. Thank you.

I'm not sure why Ethan is getting all the hate. But the whole squirrel thing isn't a bad idea at all. Maybe we'll throw in a threesome in the last chapter. Just for you of course.

Obviously I need to catch up on my reading.

So after a long soul searching few months, and many sessions with my therapist, I have come to a decision. My husband, the poor little guy he is, does not agree with this but sometimes in life you have to do what you feel is correct, deep down in your bones. 

So today, I am an alligator.

Well at least you have a long tongue.

So my birthday was Monday, I worked, whatever. I did go out after work and pretended I was twenty-one again. 

Here's an idea, when you reach a certain age, that doesn't mean you can't act like a different one. I had zero problems acting like a twenty-one year old that night. I drank shots, I danced with random guys, I may or may not have had an encounter in a bathroom, I stayed out until four am. 

Acting like a twenty-one year old was easy. What was difficult was the next day. Just because your behavior can become a twenty-one year old, doesn't mean you body magically becomes twenty-one. 

Yesterday, Wednesday was a rare day off. I had still yet to recover from Monday night, so I stayed home and napped. Around eight pm, I made myself my yearly steak dinner, mac-n-cheese, snow peas, and salad with a nice bottle of wine. I watched the tv show Fringe, and then I fell asleep on the couch where I woke up this morning at ten am. 

Five hours of drinking cost me forty-eight hours for recovery. Worth it. Did I mention I might have had an encounter in a bathroom?

Happy birthday and I like watching Fringe, too. It was a favorite show of mine.

[lawfulneutralmage]

Happy Birthday!

Congrats to both, your birthday and maybe your encounter.

It was my husband. He came in to make sure I was okay.   But I got to second base on my birthday!!!!!

The real question is did you rush around first to get to second before the husband said, "Stop, we're in public behave your damn self..." 

Or, did he let you have second base because it 'was' your birthday?  

--

And I do not allow myself to act 21 anymore, because like you it takes me 48 hours to recover. But I also think I can do weekend long basketball and volleyball tournaments on a body that has a day job and no time for a gym.. although I still try to jog and do some exercise. Still two days, ten hours each worth of tournaments on tendons and muscles that can no longer be described as springy and/or flexible. 

And yes, the husband has to do them too, because he's allowed me too much power when he knew better.

I might have by-passed first all together. . 

But the good nose, It's now Friday and I feel wonderful. Even managed to get six hours of sleep last night. 

I knew you seemed to like sports balls, but I guess I never figured you to play sports balls.  You are head and also shoulders above myselves, who gave up sports balls long time ago. I am in awe of your husband following along in your craziness. He sounds like a proper good husband.  

 

[Jason Rimbaud]

So the big sports balls game starts at 3Pm? And we won't open until 4:30pm due to pre-orders. 

Not opening until all the pre-orders are completed was the smartest idea I ever got. I can control when, how many, and spaced all orders out to give me the highest yield of profit and highest degree of customer satisfaction. 

Thankfully I used to play Tetris all the time. Just one giant puzzle. 

God I hate this week!

And since Super Bowl is in San Francisco this year, not really, it's in Santa Clara. But Santa Clara 49'ers doesn't sound as good as San Francisco 49'ers. 

Anyway, there are events all week to celebrate sports balls game. Traffic is a nightmare, prices went up, and I hate all of them. We should be able to tie anyone's shoelaces together without ramifications this week. IF you are wearing a jersey, we tie your shoelaces together. Then we donkey punch you.

You should be able to raise your prices too. At least for the folks who didn’t pre-order. And kickoff won’t be until 3:30 or 3:40

Um, I might have raised my prices January 1st...😊 

Just as a precuation to this horrible day. It wasn't by a lot, but on the day of the event, it will be raised as well.

Speaking in the vein of stupid people. 

I just had a group of thirteen walk in. They had a hard time reading the menu so I took nearly twenty minutes helping them, and once all thirteen ordered. They paid and sat down. 

Five minutes later, they come up and say we just got a phone call, can we get our food to go. I said no problem, informed the kitchen, and then two minutes later, they return, some of us have to go, some of us will eat here. 

So I went through all 13 orders, figured out what was to go what was for here. 

I then went to the kitchen, had to mark each item for here or to go. Then once that was done, I packaged up all the food, in separate bags for each person. 

Then they said we're eating here. 

Once I put all the food down on the table, they said we need boxes because we have to take this togo. 

And that's when I killed them all judge, that was the moment. 

Full disclosure, I brought them all boxes, helped them box it up. And they are currently in my dining room right now eating out of togo boxes. 

 

[Lee Wilson]

We need 13 desserts, 6 for here and 7 to go. No wait, 7 for here and 6 to go.

[Jason Rimbaud]

This must be my day to complain about customers. 

I get a phone call, can I have my wings extra crispy? 

We can do that. "Are you wanting crispy wings or well done chicken?" 

Crispy? 

"Well, cooking chicken longer doesn't make it crispy, it just makes them dry. Being crispy is about the breading and ingredients you use. Our wings are very crispy, tender and moist inside"

"I want them extra crispy. just cook them longer.

Okay. Will do."

Gets wings, complains about them being dry. 

When you change our cooking method, you don't get to complain when they aren't right. I told you they were going to be dry, I warned you. Not my fault nor my problem. 

 

Full disclosure, usually when someone asked me for extra crispy, I say yes and then just bring them my standard cooked wings. They never complain, because I use the right ingredients to make my wings crispy. But for some reason I cooked them longer for her. I don't feel bad. She left me a bad review, so I'm contesting it. Worth it.

They do realize you have easy access to sharp knives, do they not
