caramel apples & douchebags

I really wasn't cut out for serving food to people/experimenting with my patience for douchebag assholes.
Yesterday, I told a customer who was obviously not sober or mentally stable that he should "stop being so coked out."
...He didn't really appreciate that. But he was at least thirty years old, had braces, and couldn't string a sentance together. Not to mention he didn't have cash to pay for the food...so really, was I out of line? I didn't think so.

Anyway other than that I'm spending my days dancing around to music and amusing people by doing so. State fairs are fuckin fabulous.
I'll be back on the east coast on Saturday and it's so bizarre to think that next week I'll be starting classes; it really doesn't register in my mind.

They switched french teachers on me twice over the summer...if this new person turns out to be an ass like the time they switched my entire section into another conwest class that none of us signed up for...I'm going to have to kill someone. Just putting that out there, don't say I didn't warn you.

There's this caffeine drink called "Bawls." You can't imagine how many funny orders I get.
"Can I have some bawls"
"How much are the bawls"
"I need a couple of bawls/Can I get two bawls"
The list goes on. Oh, and the bottle is blue. Figure that one out.

I got the BBC version of Pride & Prejudice for $17 at Costco, the wholesale warehouse that is god's gift to mankind. When Teri was here, it was her first visit to Costco and I must say it was exciting. Mike, we saw thick flannel shirts on sale in red green and blue and thought about getting one for you because we thought you would actually wear it on a reg basis. So if you still want one tell me the color and size and I'll try to get it for you before I leave. I'm talking lumberjack flannel shirts. In mass quantities. How fuckin awesome.

By the way, our restaurant booth at the fair is across the street from the women's republicans booth and next to the libertarians booth that has signs posted saying "Equal Rights for Gun Owners." Oh and there's a pro-life booth and a bunch of Jesus Loves You booths. Can we get any more red state? Really now?

I'm so out of touch with the real world right now and it's awesome. Goddamn I'm going to be so out of whack for a few days when I get back.

I've had the beginning line for a new song stuck in my head for a few days but don't have a piano at hand to experiment with (nor the time), so it's driving me insane - I've just been humming it over and over. It's a form of water torture.

Anyway. I'm exhausted. See you back in the city.
