I get busy and you guys move quickly!

She also managed to irritate our waitress with what I thought was a semi-rude attitude - a red flag for me. So based on those two things I don't think she necessarily plays well with others.


BA, you are very observant, and it is wise to take this evening into consideration. I was a waitress (okay, they don't have that gender specific moniker these days) way back when, and I learned that people show their true colors when people wait on them. For some reason, there are some people that love looking down on folks that serve them. I wouldn't want to continue on with someone who does that either.

Anyway, I kind of don't like MG#1's attitude. Plug on?

This is quick because I am crazy, crazy a$$ busy at work. Plus things are going haywire at home too - my landscaper can't start for a couple of weeks and my HOA is on my butt to address my crappy weeds (what part of a couple weeks can't they seem to appreciate?), so I've had to constantly pull weeds on top of trying to get work done. I feel like I'm playing whack-a-mole constantly.

Then my SUV (which D19 has been driving all summer) seemed to blow the water pump last night. It's been a good car and has almost 100K miles, so I'm getting it completely serviced today. But D19 works tonight and we have transportation issues, which I still need to figure out.

Oh well.

Had a really good weekend. Sweet Stuff and I went to church Saturday, out for drinks and an appetizer, and then on to see White House Down Saturday night. It was his first gig as the secret shopper. The theatre was very busy and packed, and we had a lot of stuff to log for his report. He actually has to track the trailers and their order, so I was the secretary who saved them to my phone. We had fun. Plus I really love Jamie Foxx and Channing Tatum. Who could object to that?

He's really nice to bartenders and wait staff, so he gets a thumbs up there. One thing he isn't is snobby or crabby. grin

He's coming over tonight to take a walk (weather willing - we are in a little monsoon weather pattern in late afternoon and early evening) and watch the Home Run Derby on ESPN. Have I said how much I really enjoy... no, love... watching baseball with a former player? He tells me all the technical stuff, and although he's a homer rooter for his Cubs, he is enough of a competitor to appreciate players around the league. I like that in an athlete. He's been starting to run again and is getting in good shape. I'm definitely going to follow suit here shortly. I just need to dump the issues that seem to crop up so I can prioritize that kind of thing. But getting a ride home tonight if my car isn't ready will have to be #1.

He said he'd like to start going to church again, and asked if I wouldn't mind if he joined me. That's pretty nice. He seemed to enjoy our pastor and his homily, and I'm glad - because I love our pastor too. SS seemed genuinely amused at how many blue haired friends I have, and how happy they were to see me and hug me. Since he's a fan favorite with the geriatric crowd himself, he had quite a laugh about that. It's true. Plus, I think he liked them more since all of them asked where D16 was. These folks truly love my special needs kiddo.

Anyhoo, back to stuff here. Hope ya'll have a great week! Carry on with your dating shenanigans.
