This old guy came into my work awhile back.

I think he was hitting on me.

Kind of creepy, except he was sort of attractive.

Also, he gave me a REALLY nice tip. Not sure what to make of that.

If he thinks I'm going to sleep with him, he's insane

In other news, I had to hit a guy at work last night. Strictly speaking, it was not my fault. He was blocking the walkway by the bar and it was impossible for anyone to get past. I asked him very politely to move and he threatened me.

Then he whimpered like an infant when I hit him. I didn't even hit him that HARD. Really, you'd think I'd used baseball bat or something.

Uh, sorry in advance to Abby and Ben if he tries to sue?

This complete BITCH cut me off in traffic today and made me get in a little fender bender. The worst part is that the police said it was MY fault because I hit her from behind! Yeah, only because she tried to squeeze her gigantor SUV into a spot a Miata couldn't have squeezed into. What. The. Actual. Fuck?

So pissed.

I have to pay a fine AND get my car fixed. And my insurance is going to go up now, too.

SO. NOT. HAPPY.

Don't worry, Abby. I'll try not to take it out on the customers much.

I almost sliced off my own fingers at the bakery today. Brilliant, it was. I'm not quite how it happened, but I will say I am very, very grateful for Neosporin right now. And bandaids. And the fact that it was just a near miss and I didn't actually slice them off.

Not to self, Patty: When you have a knife in your hand, PAY ATTENTION.

Private to Herself.

I still can't believe what happened to Kris. That's just... I think I left maybe 10 minutes before she did that night. That could have been ME. I mean, guys hit on me at the bar ALL THE TIME. I shoot them down ALL THE TIME. Not to be all ME ME ME, but what if that guy had come after me instead?

I'm really glad she's okay. The whole thing just sucks.

Off to the glorious world of bar-tending for the evening!
