Ahhh! The beginning of the second week of 2010.  What a day! Wups, seems I’m getting a bit ahead of myself.

Well, I woke up to yet another epic dream of myself immersed in a world not too far removed from Pandora from Avatar.  Now, I understand that I just saw the movie the other day, BUT the reason for such vivid dreams in as many consecutive days is really starting to boggle my mind.  *Screech Screech* My alarm clock goes off just as I’m about to gather some very important information from a key player in this dream world.  Does my body do it on purpose because it knows its coming out of REM? It can’t be because for the most part I wake up roughly 30 seconds before my alarm goes off.  What the eff?  Anyways, before my head explodes, I need to stop thinking about all this.

The day started like any other, it soon became invaded by even more normalcy until about 6 pm.  Finally the customers poured and the work day have finally started.  Oh! I almost forgot, one of the cooks made my favorite gravy sauce to put on top of my burger.  It’s impossible to describe the awesomeness that comes when you pour it across the hot onion strings and grilled chicken breast.  The hamburger bun becomes soaked in flavors  that you’d thought only the messiah himself could bring forth.  The downside….it’s messy as hell, but delicious nonetheless.

I tend to crack myself up a lot as well.  I have yet to find out if that is good or not.  One of my employees said, “No, no it’s good…It’s not great, but its good.”  I laughed once again along with her and returned to my “regularly scheduled program.”  At about 8:30 I reached the point in the day where I EXTREMELY overtired.  Everything was funny and I just couldn’t be contained.  I was happy to deal with unruly customers and make sure that their needs were satisfied. I reconnected with an old college buddy before I left as well.  There is nothing better, we caught up quick, shared a few laughs and went on our ways.

Finally, I saluted everyone as I made my way out onto the frozen tundra of the WH streets and drove to buy myself dinner and a beer.  One Brooklyn Lager and Pretzel Burger and order Parmesan fries later I was in bed with a food coma once again disappointing the woman I love by falling asleep over video chat.  Wups!

side note: is it really okay to laugh at yourself? i need to know before i find myself in the loony bin.
