Free Food!

I have been thinking of a lot of important things lately, like what my life will look like in a year or two or five.  Will I be at the same job?  I fucking hope not!  Will my kids still be awesome?  Yes they will.  Will my girlfriend still be my girlfriend?  I certainly hope not, but in a good way (she is amazing and everything I could ever want in a woman).  By the way, follow her blog - http://loveandheartness.blogspot.com/ she is a great read.  So let's take a look at the things in my life as it is right now.

My job - I absolutely hate it.  I have to perform the tasks that I am supposed to manage.  I work endless hours and miss out on time with the greatest people in the world.  Joshua, Riley, my mom and dad, my sister, my friends and Kaylee (my girlfriend).  What can I do about it?  Well, I'm trying to make that better.  My boss has other plans though.  Fuck him, or thank you buddy is putting it a better way (inside joke that maybe 5 people know about).

On a side note, these cookies are delicious.

My kids - I love them so much.  They are great kids, excellent in school, great athletes and wonderful people.  I have 2 children if you were wondering.  One of each.  The girl is a teenager who makes me proud every day.  The boy is much younger and has a way of making you smile and laugh whenever you are around him.  Both are full of love and make this world a better place.

Finished the cookies, sorry Angel.

As for my girlfriend, that's just between her and me.  Sorry, but that's just the way it is.  I will tell you that I love her and she makes me a better man and brightens my day whenever I think about her.

So what have we learned?  Absolutely nothing.  I know where I want to be in a year or two or five, spending less time at work and more time with my kids and my Angel, Kaylee.

Funny story for the day - Two guests ordered a dinner split and somehow the kitchen lost the order.  Weird since they are an awesome kitchen.  Note the sarcasm.  So we got the order out to them very quickly as soon as we noticed the problem.  We bought their dinner and they were happy when they left.  The funny part is when one of the guests in this story called me later to say that she was about to cry over their experience at the restaurant.  I could hear her trying to make herself cry, no joke.  She said, and I quote,"Anything and everything that could go wrong, went wrong."  So, knowing about the issue when it happened, I asked what else was wrong?  She said nothing, the service was great, the food was great and I quote,"loved everything after the issued was handled.  Thanks for taking care of us so well."  So I asked if there was anything I could do for her and she started trying to cry again and said that everything and anything that could go wrong went wrong, again.  Not wanting this conversation to go on any longer than it had to, I asked what I could do for her and she said, and I quote,"You can send me some gift certificates."  I asked her if she was happy with the way things were handled in the restaurant and she said she was.  I asked her if she enjoyed the dinner that we bought for her and she said she enjoyed it very much.  What did I do?  I took her information and am sending her some gift certificates because she is a complete piece of shit and wants free food.  Again.  Hey, that's just what we do.

If you want something, go get it.  If it's important to you, don't let it go.  If it makes you happy and doesn't hurt anyone, do it.  If you love someone, don't be afraid to give yourself completely.
