    Bobbieleigh,
    Take it as a good sign. 

    This is more of a flame too but, just because we have three friends in common from Channel 4 does not mean you and I should be FB friends.  I don't even know you.

    I'm sorry to hear about the grandmothers, and feel for the stolen items from nursing homes (we went through that with 2 of my grandparent's nursing homes).

    B&M: we're expecting a blizzard.  I wore sweater boots today, so I hope it does indeed come late as predicted.

    I am so ready to B&M today!

    Ditto to everyone who hates the cold!  Can't it just be spring already?

    My save the dates went out and there are people at work (ironically they are mostly guys) who are upset that they did not get one.  I can't invite everyone form there!  They all can't take off or there will be no one to work that day.  Plus, I have a feeling they just want to come for the free beer. :/

    I got home from a tough 10 1/2 hour shift last night to find out that my uncle was in the hospital.  He has global congestive heart failure.  :(

    During said shift, I had a table with two people at it.  When they were finished with their meal I asked if their check was going to be together or separate (as I do with every table).  When I came back the man asked me "why in the H3LL would you ask a man and his wife if they wanted separate checks?"  The woman then said, "There is a ring on my finger, you should know that we want our checks together."  I apologized and explained that I ask that with every table just to make sure.  He flat out said, "No you don't."  I then explained that, yes, we are trained to ask that.  Again he told me that, "That's not in your training."  They asked to speak to a manager.  They told my manager that I was discriminating against them because they were an interracial couple.  They got their meal comped.  I was so upset!  I did nothing wrong!  And to top it all off, the manager was talking to them as if I did something wrong!  He didn't even tell the man that it was, in fact, in our training to ask for separate checks.  I understand that they may have had some people disapprove of them, but I didn't.  I don't care about things like that.  They just automatically assumed that I did.  Yell

    And to top it all off, I woke up this morning with my lymphnodes the size of golf balls.  I don't wanna move today....


    *sigh* I think I feel better now...

    I just had this mom call to set up her sons appointment.  That is usually my first sign.  The latest appointment we have is at 3:30 pm once a week  Her son is still in high school.  So according to this mom, "because you don't have anything after 3:30pm then I guess my son just doesn't get to go to college? THANKS A LOT" and hung up on me.  This wonderful insight came on her 4th phone call to me within 5 minutes.

    This is absolutely ridiculous.  Why would you assume that since they are both wearing a wedding ring that they are married to each other?  I go to lunch with one of my co-workers a lot and we are both married, so we both have rings on and we are always asked if our check is together or separate. I'm glad they ask and don't assume we are married to each other.

    NathanandJordan - Ugh!!  I go to eat with other married people sometimes.  They wear their rings too... that doesn't mean they are my husband!

    People are just stupid.

    How low of a person do you really have to be to steal from a nursing home?  They really are losers.

    I guess he doesn't, since he can't leave school early for one day to meet about his future.  He probably won't ever leave far from home anyway with that umbilical (sp) cord still attached.

    NathanandJordan -- This is stupid but I understand. We had a mom and daughter come in. When they fill out the HIPAA forms I have to ask the relationship. She got totally offended because she was white and the kid was asian. I honestly barely noticed that, but I guess she got it all the time and took it offensively. I just apologized and told her it was an automatic question I ask. She just signed the papers and stormed off. It's stupid!

    Giselle-- You can take off.. Just tell your boss you'll take the point and go! If it's not a week in advance they give you a point and as long as you don't get 6 in a year you are fine. Best of luck. They can be annoying.

    You're doing them a favor--if they have to be there earlier in the day then they'll miss that afternoon traffic that I love so much!

    Actually, though, you probably just ruined that kid's life.

    So I just called fat by some random guy in our breakroom.  Never seen this guy before.  Ok he didn't flat out say fat but I was heating up my lunch and he saw it and asked how many calories were in my meal.  I looked at the back and said 310 and he said maybe I shouldn't be eating that and that there are salads in the cafetria.  A$$!!!!!

    I overslept this morning, then when I left the house, my car was out of gas. And I actually enjoy cold weather, but we open Peter Pan on Thursdays and have dress rehearsals every night before then. And it's waaay out in Celina. And if I can't make it there, nobody else is prepared to conduct the orchestra. Ugh.

    So I just found out that I am most likely going to be without a car for the next 3-5 days because of the insurance company/police department are failing to coordinate with each other.

    Awesome.
