O.T.; watch where you are going; and useless stuff.

I'm beginning to work some O.T. at the office for the next several weeks so I won't be around the net much. It's good though because the days just fly by.

Went to lunch at Applebee's today. The old crew of regulars was up there. I learned about mammograms today. That was interesting.... something about having your mammaries (NYC trip. ROFL) pressed between 2 refrigerator doors? That was a bizarre analogy. It's a good thing we're all good friends because someone uttered the phrase, "I'd like to be that set of doors."

After work I met Q up at the gym and we did chest and tri's. Sherry came in at 6:40 PM and which was surprizing because normally she's out of there before 6:00. I asked her waht was up, and she was like, "I went all the way home to Hartselle... felt guilty... and came back up here." I was like, "Ahhh yes the guilt trip.. it works every time." ROFL

Got cleaned up and headed to church for a band practice thing at 7:15. On my way up there, I came to a 4-way stop. There was 1 car coming from each direction and they were at various distances from their respective stop signs. I was the first one to come to a complete stop, but the lady entering the picture from my right (who was coming in second) pulled a California roll and just went on through the stop sign, as I was already 1/3 of the way into the intersection.

She had had her head turned to her right and was talking to her 12 year old son in the front seat and just happened to look up as we almost collided. (Although I had a feeling she was going to run it, because I could see she was not paying attention, so no collision would have happened.. I just wanted to scare the crap out of her). She honked at me as I drove through the intersection.... $&&) ##$$ $((#)) may have come out of my mouth and been directed at her.

So anyways, the overall sound at practice was actually quite good tonight for some reason. Ironed out a few parts and such and called it a night.

Ended up at Logan's with Kevin, Stacy, and Jon. Upon being seated, I couldn't help but notice this girl sweeping up the floor and I was all thinking, "Man that looks like Brandi". She waited on me and Jeff about a month ago and was pretty cool. As I was coming back from the bathroom I stopped her as she was walking to the back and it went like this:

Me: "Is your name Brandi?"
Her: "Yeah" [Inqusitive look]
Me: "Umm K...I thought so. You waited on me and a friend a while back."
Her: "Oh yeah! I knew you looked familiar! You guys sat right there (and pointed to the table we were at) and I was giving you all a hard time about your checks."

So that was kewl because it had been well over a month since we've been in there.

[I'd like to take a moment to pause and make sure and give the proper shout to Sarah who not only remembered who we were (The church group), but also what I ate after not seeing us/me for a month. That was great. LOL]

So for fun, let's recap our favorite restaurants and waitresses:

Applebee's:
Trained in the proper procedure : Donna, Beth, Jessica, Kristina
Next on the list to be trained : Charity, Holly, Devin, Kelly, Jade

Cracker Barrel:
Sarah
I don't know if they can get away with the procedures like Applebee's folks can. You know, if I would have actually SAT with Liz when she worked there last summer, I would know the answer to this q. Also, if Meg wouldn't have quit hostessing and like become a server, that would have helped. LOL

Logan's:
Brandi
The first time we sat with her, she was aware of the procedure. It was as if it was implanted in her mind and she knew what to do. Maybe it was her female intuition. Who knows... All I know is, she didn't charge us for our drinks and salads... which is "The Proper Procedure"

Bishop Black at Sammy T's in downtown Huntsville, Alabama this Satuday night! Be there! I'll be filming! (maybe.. if I get done with the wedding early enough) Visit www.thetoe.cc for more info.

Bedtime.
