VEGAS BABY!!!

I'm so excited, I can't even think of a secondary title.

I'm going to Vegas Baby and I think my cabin fever will be cured (at least for a month).

One of my favorite bloggers invited me to join a Vegas trip that they are taking, and I jumped at the opportunity. I really can't express to you how excited I am.

I will be flying out first thing this coming Saturday and will be returning early Tuesday morning. Apparently the plans are to go to an ALL YOU CAN drink bar and then hitting a strip club afterwards. I am also supposed to find out if I can hold my liquor, unless my friend is talking about someone else.

I will tell all the stories as soon as I get back, if I can remember them.

You Guys Like Me You Really Like Me!!

I won? I demand a recount!

Many of you know that I have been delivering pizza as a second job since the middle of summer. I started out working for one of the run of the mill, pizza only places that likes to rape it's drivers of their money without them really knowing it. I was working 4 days a weeks while I was there and would get home between 1 and 4 in the morning depending on the day and how busy it was and then getting to work by 8 the next day.

Not wanting to continue that cycle for too long, I changed company's around mid October, and I kid you not when I say that I absolutely loved the change. This place is basically a restaurant that serves pizza on the side. I very rarely work past 10:30 when I am scheduled there and the shifts are on average only 4 hours long. And what's even better... it's located in a affluent neighborhood and therefore the TIPS ARE AMAZING!!

Now the one drawback to working the pizza delivery side is this, you don't get enough time to really get to know any of the other people that work there, especially the waitstaff. I very rarely see them unless I am not working and getting food for myself.

Or so I thought....

Last night, the company threw the much delayed, out of place Christmas/New Year's Party. There was the whole Secret Santa and Year End Superlatives and everything. Having not been there for too long, I wasn't expecting to get any of the superlatives nor was I expecting a gift that would really be fitting for me. Boy, not only was I wrong I was surprised.

And the winner of the Best Customer Service for a Driver is...... JP!!
What? Are you serious? Check the numbers again. That's impossible, nobody knows me.
Wow thanks everyone.


That's right everyone, after 2-1/2 months, I am known for my customer service. I also found out that I was nominated for being the best dressed outside of work and for hardest working driver too.

I was also surprised when it came to exchange gifts for the Secret Santa. I received a pair of Virginia Tech glasses in the shape of a football. Talk about the perfect gift.

I got the person I had a pair of candles along with candle holder and a Victoria's Secret gift card, unfortunately she was not there, so the manager will give it to her later. I hope she likes it.

Cabin Fever

I think I started my life in reverse.

It wasn't that long ago (about 2-3 years) that I used to love relaxing at home on the weekend and was perfectly content with that. The thought of going someplace was always nice, but nothing could really get me to walk out the door of my house/apartment. It's been that way for most of my life.

When I was a kid, my weekends were spent in the back yard with friends coming over. As I got older, I would only leave the comfort of my home to go to church on Sundays. Even when I moved out for the first time, I would very rarely venture out of the house just for the hell of it.

NOW it is completely different. I loathe staying at home with nothing to do. I've got to do something eventually. Even during the week, when I should be sleeping so I can make it to work on time the next day, I find myself craving some fun. I need to be out, hanging with friends, drinking, or just doing something.

In the past 2 weeks, I have made spontaneous trips out of town for a day. I have tried inviting people come join me to watch a football game at a sports bar. I am even seriously contemplating an impromptu invitation to Vegas in 2 weeks.

Am I getting younger or am I still trying to make up for being the oldest 20 year old there is? You decide.

I'm f****d. I have the wrong set of keys and I can't get in the house.

"You're not going to freeze in the cold like those Mexicans"

I have a habit of doing stupid things without thinking sometimes, or paying attention for that matter. I've been known to come to work with my zipper down on many occasions. Last night was no different.

The Virginia Tech vs. Kansas game was on my schedule last night, and I just couldn't watch that at home. I had to be around a bunch of other Hokies when they won, so I opted to go to a sports bar instead.

On my way out the door, I grabbed my keys to my car, got in and headed out anxious drink and eat Virginia Tech to a victory. I invited some of my friends to join me, but only The Fencing Dancer showed up (despite her declaration before hand that she was rooting for Kansas).

Unfortunately, 2 things happen during the course of the night that made it eventful.

1. Virginia Tech lost. (not the end of the world I know, but I really wanted to gloat because Virginia lost also a couple of days before).

2. I grabbed the wrong set of keys and had no way to get in the house after I got home. I searched my car furiously for them, thinking that maybe I had brought them with me. I never found them and tried to call my roommate to let me in. Apparently he crashed and didn't hear the phone ring, the doorbell or the pounding of my fist against the door.

If it wasn't for The Fencing Dancer's hospitality and insistence that I was not going "sleep in the cold and die like those Mexicans", I would of slept in the car with the 2 jackets and blanket I had in the car for emergencies. Thank You!!!

It's the New Year Y'all!!!

I hope life is great in 2008!!!

I know I know it seems like I have dropped of the face of the planet. I swear it is nothing personal. I've just been busy with the Holidays and with work (that and the fact that I know my boss can find my blog, I gotta be careful).

But I am back and will be at my usual post, blogging away.

It's been a fun couple of weeks. I enjoyed My Christmas Vacation and had one of the best New Year's Celebrations ever.

But now that the holidays are over. It's back to work as usual.

Right boss?
