Mom's 75th Birthday Gala

See what happens when a person works in customer service/food industry?
I asked for Saturday the 12th of December off, it was approved. Its rare
that you get a Saturday off in my line and field of work, Saturdays are
the busiest day of the week. Well my brothers and sisters changed the
date to the next wekend, the 19th. Like, I went to the powers that ne
and told them of the weekend date switch, and they told me that no way I
can have that Saturday off. I not mad or anything, just a little
dissappointed. I haven't seen certain family memebers since I was 17
years old, and was looking forward to seeing them this time. Another
reason I'm not mad, cause I know what is, is what it is. Lucky and glad
to have a job with the way things are going.

My brothers, sisters and my sister inlaw are emailing back and forth
with the details about what's going on. Moms knows nothing about it. Its
turning out to be a real nice affair so far. I want to be there, and I
can, but this is what's happening. I'm working from 7am to 10pm on that
Saturday. Where this is happening at, in The Bronx, it will take me 2
and a half hours to get there, no problem but... I have to be at work on
Sunday at 7am, and work til 6pm. I can do it, but I'm gonna feel like
shit on Sunday and probably be cranky as hell with no sleep involved.

I spoke with my mother today without revealing not TOO much information.
She told me not to stress the situation. I explained to her what the
other deal is too. One guy is getting fired sometime this week or within
the next 2 weeks. Another guy is thinking about leaving because of an
email a 'supposely' a customer emailed to the owners. So he is on the
fence about staying or leaving, I say sink, or swim motherfucker. I
don't know if my brothers and sisters will understand what's going on
with me and work, see they are off on weekends. I live sometimes if not
all the time from pay period to pay period, always have and I guess I
will always will. So explaing it to them, they won't understand, so I
explained to Moms, she understands.

My sister texted me and want me to do a screen saver type thing too at
the affair. Iwill text her back, probably call her and let her know what
the deal is. Hope she understands.

I've Gotta Say...

Anyone under the age of 37 is a youngster to me. There I've say it. Oh I have my reasons for saying so too. When those if 37 years of age and younger come to me for some advice..and it's rare, I give it to them. My advice is what I would do, but you aren't me so take your chances by following my advice. But if I really, REALLY know something, if I really know the works and the making of whatever you ask me about, I would take the advice I gave you. Run with it, go for it. But no..you have to learn by your mistakes. It's not like you've been around the block as many times I have in my 60 plus years.  So this one young lady is a certified Nut Case. Yeah, but she has a beautiful face and a body you wouldn't believe. I have had the pleasure of making Love to her once..with no happy ending. Reason being, I know me. I would want her always and all the time. So why I do/did was make it all about her pleasure. Did everything she would want me to do...other than actual s...

I know we are a strange people

I'm trying to figure out people, this is an ongoing, day to day, minute to minute process . Why do I bother? I REALLY need some type of hobby. I know to some people I may be and act strange also. The difference with me is that I will call you on your strangeness. Call me on mine. To me, I like to have fun, no matter what I am doing. Work !! I have always have fun at work, but not all the time. It happens throughout the day. The people I wait on, allow the fun part of me to come out. Someone should invent a spray that does this to people, I think, no I know the world would be a whole lot different. Another thing, and I try to make this a priority everyday, is that I try to be consistent . Its hard at times, but I do try.

Wow!!

Okay, this woman I met online....we are meeting for the first time come December. She choosed to tell me a little about herself. She us a God Fearing. Church Going Woman. To each his or her own. She told me in her own words, that she use to smoke that 'shit', crack. So? I could care less if you're smoking it, have smoked it and want to still smoke it, that's your choosing, really. But I have issues with what she said. Its along the lines of people who sue to smoke cigarettes, and now when theywalk into a cloud of cigarette smoke, the complain or cough. To me that act is stupid. It only goes to prove that you miss smoking cigarettes. Why complain when some one else is smoking and you use to? You miss it that bad huh? Reguardless you quit because of health reasons, I'm not watching where I smoke if its legal, cause you feel its bad for YOU!! As for smoking crack. You tried it, liked it,hbut found out now that its not right for you to do. What cause you to quit? Me, ...
