Nothing Else Today…

rmiles7721April 19, 2007Site News

I’m feeling pretty blah tonight. Very tired. I ended up staying late last night when I went in for the shift change so didn’t go to bed until after midnight.

It still looks like I will be picking up the three stores at some point soon but I have no idea when. I am just sort of playing it by ear right now and doing my job.

Tomorrow is going to be a pretty long day. I am slightly shorthanded due to one of my cooks being accused of sexual harassment. I’ve pulled him off of his shift and the only time he is going to be able to work for awhile is if I am there at least until the investigation. Even after that he may need to go somewhere else, I just don’t think I have anyone on the night shift that will work with him should the company decide to keep him. That’s a decision I pretty much have no control over right now.

My other night shift cook had his Aunt pass away today. He was calling to let me know, and that he would still be at work tonight but has to leave for Florida at five AM. I told him I appreciated it and am getting ready to go to bed. It takes me awhile to wake up so if I have to be there by 4:30 I need to get up by 3 or so. I’m pretty tired and boring tonight anyway so sleeping shouldn’t be a problem.

Sorry about the lack of anything cool over the last two days. Maybe I will talk about the time I duct taped my children into a trash barrel and rolled them into traffic some other evening.

Another Book Meme

Valkyrie Angel brought this meme up in the comments to one of my other posts, I guess she is participating right now and is trying to get readers to participate at well, so I am recycling this post from March of this year since I am too lazy and it was so recent that nothing has changed.

Another book meme thanks to Jenn at Everyday Randomness. This one is even bigger than the sci-fi meme I did recently.

I’m not going to italicize any of them because I am not adverse to reading just about anything that might cross my lap. Personally I think that the bible should not be in the list, but to each his own. I have read several different versions of it, so I did bold it.
