Are You Busy?...

Hahahahahaha. Best joke I've heard all day. It's that time of year, and we all know what that means; ol' girl survived another Thanksgiving week at the PFM. You know how much I love and adore my job, but when someone calls and asks if we're busy, that's when I want to reply to them and say, no, we're not busy. It's not like it's the DAY BEFORE THE NUMBER ONE FOOD HOLIDAY. Let me drop what I'm doing and cater to your needs.

If I see another sprig of Rosemary, Thyme, and Sage, I might scream.

Same goes for corn, potatoes, and asparagus.

My cookie oreo brownie surprise does a world of good come lunch time.

Today, our boss told me the greatest seven words I will hear all year. It's time to turn on the CHRISTMAS music. And of course, what's the first song that pops on, the Bieb's "Mistletoe".  I know this is supposed to be the season of thanks, but as a customer witnessed, and as I promptly announced, I can't stand him or his music. I know. It's mean, and not nice. Her reply? "You're funny." Uh, I wasn't kidding.

The one thing I like about our Christmas music? No commercials. Love me some satellite radio.

I was fortunate enough to find out what's on the menu for Thursday's dinner. A meat and cheese tray for happy hour, green beans, stuffing, and a turducken. What happened to the simple all American Thanksgiving staple called Turkey? Oh thats right... A turkey can't feed 48 people. Yeesh.

To the four people that called and asked if we were open Thanksgiving? No. We're not. This is one of four days a year that we are closed, and get to spend time with our families. Sorry if you're bummed that we can't serve you, but we re-open Friday morning at 8:00.

During the first part of the month, I wrote down my schedule for days that I would not be able to work/close. Included in those days, the Saturday after Thanksgiving. I figured that if I had Saturday off, I would be working Sunday morning. Guess who has the entire weekend off starting at noon Friday? I don't know what to do with myself.

As much as I don't support the Black Friday sales starting at midnight Thanksgiving night, I'm seriously considering going and standing in line just to say I was one of those freaks. And yes, I know I talk a really, really, really, really, good story.

I'm 90% finished with my Christmas shopping. This might be a first for me.

In other related news, there's a slight chance, and I mean slight, that the UL Football team could be headed back to the Orange Bowl of the BCS. This is pretty big and exciting news considering where we were this time two years ago. And on the basketball front, the Butler University Basketball Coach, also one of my boyfriaaaaands Brad Stevens, recently said, that if UL can get our team back to health (we have at least 4 players out with injuries) he said we could be an "April" team. #winning.

Paper updates: Halfway through my PTSD paper, have yet to touch my internet dating paper, and oh yea, totes forgot that I have a 250 point speech to plan and execute. no biggie. It's not like I'm superwoman or anything.
