HI! It's almost 5 am and I am exausted. Some of the guys from work and I went to have a couple of drinks at a place down the street. They don't close till 4am and we met the manager and some of the bartenders. I am sooooo tired right now and a little loopy. JG came to see me at work today. It was very nice. He and KR and another friend of ours came by on Friday, but I was so busy then that I didnt' get to talke to them very much. Today I wasn't so busy so I hung out with him and his honey for a little bit and even gave them a couple of splashes. Splashes are just a tablespoon (or a couple if I'm the one pouring!) of wine to see if you like it or not. They are free and it's great because you don't have to pay for a glass if you don't like it! I splashed them on some 9s and 10s, which are $23 a glass or more. Yesterday after closing, some of the co-workers and I went out for drinks. After a while we went to this great place that is open 24 hours. They have pizza and these great sandwitches. The sandwithches have french fries and coselaw on them. It is the perfect food at 5am or when you have a really bad hangover. Anyway, I didn't get in till 6:30 or later last night because we went to get pizza and one of the owners/managers of the wine bar went and got us a couple of bottles from the resturant. She just unlocked the door, took the bottle and left a note saying she'd pay for them later. We had those and the pizza at one girls house. Mommy called while I was at work today. They are somewhere near Minnapolis right about now. The drive has been ok and they aren't sad about leaving VA at all. They are just looking forward to seeing my niece for ther 2nd b-day. I can't even believe she will be two on Saturday. My other friend called while I was working tooo. She wanted to thank me because I made her a cake for her going away party. She is moving to England next week to teach and her party was tonight. I made a 4 layer chocolate cake with chocolate ganache between each layer. I'll have to call her when I wake up to see if she liked it. The dog is sitting by the door crying right now. I alrady walked him so I'm sure he just wants some attention. I'd better go pay with him so that he won't wake me up at the crack of dawn. Yes, he is THAT special!! Oh I almost forgot. No word on the parents being roommmates yet. Shel, yes, I would charge them for the year, but not as much as I'd charge someone else. NYABG, the advantages of having them here is that I never have to walk the dog, do laundry, cook, or fix anything in the house or car. The disadvantage is that I'll be a single woman pushing 30 living with my parents! All - I don't know what is going to happen yet, but I did make $300 on Firday and $200 tongith. It's all looking up for right now. Well see how I feel next week! Sleepyness kicking in more. I'm sure I'm rambling so I'll go now. We'll talk soon!
