So last night I worked with Dean (my new roomie) at a catered party over in Point Breeze. holy shit talk about nice houses. The people hosting this party were really nice, so I feel slightly bad about the 8 or so bottles of wine we pilfered that are sitting on our kitchen counter. But hey, we're poor and we like to drink. They won't notice. They have plenty more leftovers, and we had to work for 5 hours around these people that were stuffing their rich faces when we hadn't eaten any dinner. Goddamn that salmon looked so good. At 9pm or so I couldn't take it anymore and managed to palm a roll and snuck outside to stuff my face. That helped a lil.
It was kinda fun though, the hosts were really sweet and most of the party guests were nice. I seriously almost smacked a couple hands though. These people would stand in the kitchen while the poor chef was trying to finish cooking the dinner and they're eating the hors d'ouevres OFF THE COOKING TRAY instead of waiting for me to bring out another plate that they could take it off of. The chef was going nuts and it was rather entertaining to watch. He was funny. Total flirt by the end of the night, after he'd snuck two of the open bottles of wine outside for him to chug. Silly boy. Of course Dean was being a jerk and totally egged him on and kept ostentatiously hitting on me too, but he didn't mean it....anyway, it was a pretty fun night, got a $25 tip and $15/hr, so maybe I'll have the money for rent next month! yay!
Speaking of my new apartment, it's gonna look so great as soon as we finish painting...it's nearly there. just have to finish the trim. As soon as it's done there will be pics. I'll probly try to finish arranging my room today while they're watching the stillers, and then work on the trim tonight, once Dimmy comes over to help.
Hope y'all are well. And Merry Christmas if I don't post again before that. :-)
