candyland | Best night at work ever! \o/

All righty, so it's the Fourth of July. And I work in a place that sells Chinese food and pizza. D'ya think we're terribly busy on good ol' Independence Day? I daresay...NOT. I have worked every Fourth since I've been working there, and the night shift is almost always dead to the "why are we open?" degree.

I started at four. It was me and two of the cooks, so I knew it was going to at least going to be a productive night in terms of everyone doing their fair share o' work. That's always really nice. We were really, really slow, and got permission to close at six. So we started pulling stuff and sweeping and scrubbing stuff down...

And then a family showed up wanting two dinners for four *laugh* Luckily, they were okay with what we had in the case and more or less cleaned us out (which meant less work for us, yay!). We had a couple other people stop by, and we got them what they needed, and shut it down very quickly with all three of us going at it. I clocked out at 7:18 PM. Grabbed a burger on the way home--currently have the house to myself because my sister is at work and my parents are at a movie.

Tomorrow I work eight-thirty-ish to four, and Mom suggested that we should all go up to Hy-Vee for an early breakfast, which is awesomely awesome. Means I get to start the day with a nice big breakfast in my tummy, and occupy my morning with handling the truck stuff and taking care of the pizza case.

When I get off work, I'm going home to take a quick shower and change, and then

kaitodoushi and I are doing some hangage. And play lawyers. As usual. We're also going to hopefully get some play-time in on Sunday, since we're closing together at work. Oh, that reminds me--Kat! Schedule's up, and Tuesday and Thursday are free, just like this past week! Except we don't close together on Sunday, woe ;o; But we can has play, y/y?

Plunnies are tentatively returning. I had a burst of inspiration this morning and scrawled out a fic, and I actually have another idea brewing. Would someone pleeeeeeeeease tell me why in the hell I have a Cooking Mama plunnie? Cooking Mama doesn't even have a PLOT! *flops* But the story this morning...I kept misspelling "bride" as "bridge" (just did it again!), and I'm not sure why.

Also--Jolly Rancher soda. It's not bad. And neither is this burger I am merrily devouring *OM NOM NOM* And ah, the sounds of pretty 'splosions in the sky outside. Even though fireworks are illegal in Iowa *laugh* Always go off near our house on the appropriate holidays.

...MY BORINGNESS, LET ME SHOW YOU IT.
