On The Night Shift

I ate today!

Sho’ll did! I took myself out to eat at the buffet and I had a pork chop, some grilled fish, candy yams, mashed potatoes, cheese hashbrowns and cake and icecream. I cried on my way home because it’s been so long since I had a good cooked meal.

I made good money at Denny’s last night. I realize that a little conversation goes a long way when you’re trying to get that BIG tip. I stood there and had a 10 minute conversation with a white guy who was eating alone. He said he was waiting for his friend and a girl to meet them there but they never showed.

“If he doesn’t show, that means he got lucky!” I joked. “Don’t be jealous.”

“I’m not jealous. I just got back from getting mine.”

“Was it good?”

“Yes it was, but that chick’s house was like in a gated community INSIDE a gated community and I got out of there as soon as I could!”

“Why?”

He laughed. “I fed that girl so many lines. First thing I did was tell her I’m in law school. That ALWAYS works! When it was over she asked me for my phone number and I gave it to her even though I didn’t want to. She asked me for my email address and my myspace page too! I don’t know if I gave her the right one though.”

“You’re WILD!” I laughed as I watched him eat his Moons Over MyHammy.

“NEVER date a law student!” he proclaimed.

I raised my eyebrow. “I won’t,” I promised and rolled my eyes as I walked back to the kitchen.

He left me a $12 tip.

Of course I had a bunch of drunk people come in and I took extra care of them. One drunk couple came onto me telling me straight out, “We like you. Do you like us?”

This happens more often than I like. When couples approach me to try to get me to go home with them, I’m a little bit flattered but a LOT nervous. I’m always like, “Do I look like a FREAK? Do I look like I get down like that?” I can’t picture myself actually enjoying a 3 some again unless it’s with my own man and I get to choose the woman.

When I finally got home I was so exhausted that I fell asleep right away and I slept for like 6 hours straight.

Uh oh…my classmate just called me….Let me go discuss this schoolwork.
