AH! BUSY!

Not a lot to say today. I slept for the first time in a few days. And when I woke up, it was still quiet so I went back to sleep. Sue me for taking advantage. Anyway, the rest of today was spent planning the rest of the week and next week. I’m going to be working more than usual. I’m sitting at the Pride table for New Student Orientation next week. I’m finally starting physio for my ankle. I’m trying to organize a meeting for all the editors working on the WC magazine. I’m not going to lie. I like being busy. It gives me less time to think about crap I shouldn’t spend a lot of time thinking about. And then of course I have my writing which I will pick up shortly.

At work tonight things got a little scary... but as always we got through it. I think people would be shocked to find out how many people actually work in the restaurant. Ed and Helen were in New York over the weekend. Before coming home, they stopped off in Toronto. They only got home fifteen minutes after my shift was supposed to start. There were customers waiting for their 5:30 reservation and we couldn’t let them in. It was a mad dash to light candles, water tables, get the bar open, open the kitchen, get the meals going. Thank God they ordered in advance. Downer? Me and Ed started cooking the main courses before the appetizers. We didn’t know they’d be having any. We had to keep what we’d cooked hot while we worked on putting out the appetizers. In the end it turned out alright. But the first two hours of my shift were pretty intense.

That was my day. It was nice. Relaxing but busy enough to keep me from going insane. YAY! Tomorrow I’m hanging out with Dana. Everyone assumes we will be baking. I don’t know. I guess we’ll see.

Lauren.
