Work, work, work!

I feel like that has been the theme lately in the Brummer household. Friday night I worked with Aaron at Redhead - I was the "floater," meaning I got waters for tables, bused tables, did whatever the servers needed, etc. Then Saturday morning/afternoon, Aaron and I worked there again for a private graduation party, this time I served drinks and bused tables, etc. Then last night, I filled in as a server for the first time - it was a really busy night! We started out fairly slow - I had one or two tables at a time, then 7 pm hit and we got so busy! I think I had five tables going at one point, which is a fairly overwhelming for the first time serving! It's really fun for me to work at the restaurant though, because I get to learn all about the restaurant business. Anyway, it was a good night and I was really tired when I got home! I tried to go to bed when I got home, but I could not fall asleep for many reasons: 1. I smelled. And I could smell myself. 2. My legs were throbbing 3. My mind kept running all the night's specials through my head : "Maple braised pork ribs with blah blah blah." It was like my brain was trying to memorize all the specials exactly as they were on the board! 4. I drank Diet Pepsi all night when I was working - dumb. So it was not the most restful night, but thank goodness for the long weekend! Poor Aaron, he still had to get up for work at five this morning. Again, back to the work theme... :)
Hope you all have a happy Memorial Day weekend!
