eeeeh nothing too exciting happened today. slept in pretty late as I was up till 5am catching up on missed episodes of the new 90210 series. People were pretty skeptical when this show was announced last year. How do you bring back an old hit television series that ended years ago, with a new cast and new story lines? It's turning out to be pretty entertaining. Not quite The OC, not quite Gossip Girl. I think it's pretty original. It's cool how they bring back (slowly but surely) some of the original tv show's characters. It's interesting to see where there characters are at 10 years later. laugh. out. loud. ANYWAY........

I took it pretty easy. I've been off work for a total of nine days now, because of strep. Now that I'm all better and healthier than ever, I return to work in the morning. Whoo? I should feel ready to go. As if I'm just getting off some kind of vacation (not that having strep throat is in ANY way a vacation), but I'm really not feeling getting back into the serving mood. You have to put on this face, whether you're in the mood or not. Just have to think about the money I guess. Right now at least. Not working for a week and a half doesn't do too much good on your wallet, not that I was going out and spending money everyday or anything. I guess work is work. Does anybody really LOVE waking up and going to work? My job's alright. I shouldn't complain as a lot of people are losing their jobs right now. I guess I'm just not really feeling my schedule. I have some of the best shifts you can get on the schedule, but it comes with a price. I'm closing the place down on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. All great money making nights, but at the same time, I'll be getting out of there around 1am, meaning I don't really get any kind of social life on the weekends. So it's bitter sweet I guess.

I went out for a bite tonight with my friend Kelsey. Where did we go? To my work of course! I've only been gone for 9 days, and we have all these new additions to our menu, and some deletions as well. I hope I'm okay at work. People are going to be asking me questions about these new items and I'll be like "you know... I have no idea what it's like. Lets try it together shall we?" haha. Anyway, tried a few of the new items tonight, good stuff. No complaints. Had my first drink in two weeks. I'm kind of over the whole 'drinking till you drop' thing. It's not fun anymore. It's a waste of money, and the prize you get the next morning, that wonderful feeling of feeling like shit... not so much fun. Working where I work though, all you want is a drink after your shift. You serve liquor all night and all you want is one for yourself. So here's hoping I can take control of myself and not give in to temptation. I'm done with smoking though. These two weeks of recovering from being sick (and originally recovering from one of the worst hangovers of my life), I've realised that you need to take care of your body. You only get one. Why mess it up with so much liquor and cigarettes?

Anyway, I'm done ranting about nothing. I should get some sleep as it's 2am and I need to be up in time for work in the morning. Wish me luck....

G'night. zZzzz
