worthy or not here i come

Last night I was working in the bar at Stella's. A guy came in and sat down. He wanted to know if we had sparkling water; I checked, we had Saratoga... or maybe it was Pelagrino, idk, but whatev, that's not the point. Keep in mind he asked me about it in a super snotty, highly pretentious manner. After I told him the brand, he asked me to bring one out-- "but don't open it," he said "I need to look at it to see if it's worthy of my consumption." Uuuuh hhuuh... so I got him the bottle of water. He looked at it, set it down, and left me a dollar. A few hours later he came back and ordered a bottle of said sparkling water. It was, apparently, worthy of his consumption. :P

happy birthday rebecca davis

To my heart, wishing you the merriest of days and the most glorious of nights. Also, don't get too drunk tonight, remember you have to babysit tomorrow ;)

odds & ends from my head

I hate banquets now. I used to like them, but now they can blow me.

I have a love hate relationship with Stella's. She is either so so good to me and I love her and think she can do no wrong, or I want to throttle her and kick her to the curb.

Both my sisters, my niece, and my nephew are in town. Haven't seen them for years! (Literally.)

I'm feeling mildly panicky about my life and what I'm going to do with it.

My apartment is ridiculously clean, so come over and see it while it lasts.

I want more.

fieldy of dreams

Yowza. Last night I got to 1st Ave. around midnight. A friend of a friend was throwing a birthday party in the VIP room. In this time I had a few cocktails, listened to some music, and got friendly with the locals. Ok, maybe not locals, but I met a bunch of interesting people. I met a guy who's son is in print ads at Target and who liked my shoes. I met his baby mama who is an eco-friendly real estate agent. I met my friend Deb's bff who apparently used to date my brother's best friend (DJ Jevne)... small effing world. Later, I got kicked out. I would just like to take this time to point out though, that me getting kicked out was bullshit. And it wasn't so much getting kicked out as not letting me back in. The bouncers (who by the way looked 13 years old) claimed I tripped down the stairs, which I definitely didn't and there were people far far far more intoxicated than I at this party. He said he didn't want me to hurt myself. Uh huh. WHATEV. But I was just like fine I'm not gonna argue, it was bar close anyway. Soon people were pouring out and I met a cute little boy who then got into some weird argument with a friend who was not so much a friend. I met a girl named Lark. And I met Fieldy from Korn! He was all don't lean on the bus it's soo dirty, you'll get all dirty. Yeah our bus is so dirty. And I asked this is your bus?? And he said yeah, I'm the bass player from Korn. And then I said now I feel like an idiot. He laughed and took a picture with me. Then Deb & I caught a cab home. I messed around on my computer where I had a hilarious convo with Mikey (I reread it in the am). This morning I discovered that I lost my id and my credit card. Lucky for me, there is so little room on it, that if some poor bastard tries to use it for any major or not so major purchases, it will probably just get declined. Ha.


Shoutout to my pops! Happy dad's day!!

candid me this

I was thinking about being more candid in my blogs. But then I remembered that my mom reads my blog. And after that I remembered that lot's of people you think don't read your blog actually do, you just don't know it. I also remembered that I don't like people to know everything that I'm thinking about, because while I do a lot of thinking, it's not for everyone's personal knowledge. I don't like being an open book, unless it's because you really understand me. And so I decided I'm not going to just explicitly let everyone know what's up. So I guess if you do want to know what's up you'll have to actually put in more effort than just clicking one of your bookmark links. Oh, don't lie, you know you have this bookmarked ;)

too bad so sad

I just had a little fit where I sobbed for five minutes about my phone. Ok, don't get me wrong, I know it's ridiculous, but I did it anyway. Because really, I really need my phone since I don't have a landline. And today I needed to call an old boss about a letter of rec I need, and my manager at Stella's cuz she misscheduled me and it's for tomorrow. So anyway, my phone broke so I drove to Minnetonka to get a new one. They don't have it, but sent me to Apple Valley to get one. I've lost the majority of my contacts, but got a new phone and have some numbers. Breathe a sigh of relief, I can stop thinking about it. Go home, am getting new ringtones, putting in numbers, etc. (since mine are all gone now :P) Then I try to take a picture of my cat for a screensaver when I discover that both the camera and the camcorder do not work. Like are you fucking kidding me? This is a brand new phone that I drove all over town to get wasting a whole bunch of time that I didn't have to get it. So I freaked out and cried about it. Sooo frustrating. But I'm better now :)

Oh, and my sister is in town for 3 weeks from Korea, so I'm super stoked about it. Also, I got a haircut today. Wordup.
