'Fess Up Friday

Time once again to put everything out there for all the world to see! I am so thankful that I can confess to you all! If you want to join in the fun, head over to Mamarazzi and link up! You will feel better for it. This weeks post is a lot less heavy than last week's.


I confess that I like driving fast. I think I should have driven for NASCAR! Not sure how I feel about not peeing for like 7 hours, though.

I confess that the guy who was peeing in the ladies' restroom at my restaurant gave me the creeps. Dude, can't you read the sign on the door? And why don't you close the stall door? My hubby says that very few men do unless they are doing #2.

I confess that I am glad I am a woman! The main reason is the previous confession.

I confess that though I am at my goal size as far as my body is concerned, not working out makes me feel lumpy. Lumpy is never good unless you are a mashed potato and I am clearly not but I would like to eat some right now......

I confess that my kids' rooms overwhelm me. They can clean them and then 5 minutes later when I show up to vacuum, they are cluttered and messy again! I need help! I have 1/2 a mind to just take a rake and put all the stuff in a box and take it to Goodwill! I am serious!

I confess that I love the friends that God has brought into my life right now. They are supportive and loving and accepting. "A friend loves at all times" Proverbs 17:7. Thank you, Lord, for my friends!

Oh the People You Will Meet....

....when you work down on Main St. Names and locations have been changed to protect the innocent(and the guilty). If you find any similarities to yourself in here, then I am sorry! The truth is the truth!

I thought that I would write an ongoing post of the people I meet or things I see as I wait tables. Waitressing is a fun occupation and I love it but you meet some characters both good and bad.

1) A man using a stall in the ladies room and then turning around as he is "going" and asking me if he was in the ladies' room. Why can't they at least close the door? I cannot unsee that! Horrible!

2) Bunches of people like ranch for their pizza and there is nothing wrong with that. However, asking me to go to the restaurant next door and get it is not right! Do you go in Old Navy and ask them to go and get you a t-shirt from Target next door cause it would match better? No, you wouldn't! You go next door and ask for the ranch! We don't have it!

3) A couple having an obvious argument at the table. Yet, every time I come by and take an order, or deliver food, or ask how everything is, they both smile at me as if life is perfect! One exception to that is the lady who got up and walked out on her fellow! He was embarrassed and left quickly after she did.

4) A dirty old man with too much money and time on his hands. Please. don't ogle the girls who work here and quit offering them money to go home with you! Not enough money in the world for that!

5) Someone who is of age buying alcoholic drinks for the person who isn't. That is illegal and can get everyone including the bartender and server in trouble. This can involve fines of up to $2500 and losing of personal licenses and liquor licenses. Don't be an idiot!

Stay tuned next week for the next installment of "Oh the people you will meet"......
