Beyond Exhausted

Me. Last night. Once I finally made it home.

So. Tired. Ran a ton of errands before work yesterday (and started Xmas shopping), so I was already out and about doing things on a few hours of sleep before heading into an incredibly nutty Holiday Party work environment. And we were busy. Busy, busy, busy. Not sure if we were busier than we were Thursday night or not, I just know that with a party of 40 coming in at 11pm, we had 5 girls working up until 1:30am or so...

As someone who is used to keeping up the facade until midnight or so and then being able to calm it down and take care of a few tables before starting to teardown the restaurant for close, it was a little difficult dealing with a bunch of young people coming into the place after a holiday party. Luckily, they were all outta there by 1:15/1:30 or so, but having to be that much happier and "on" for that many more hours made the end of the night pretty horrible. It took us 45 minutes to do the money last night, and yeah there was a lot of money and it was sorta confusing, but Tali and I were also just done and making stupid mistakes, so we didn't get outta there until 3:15am...

And then the train took over 20 minutes to arrive and I had to transfer trains and I didn't get home and into bed until 4:45am. Needless to say, I set my alarm for 11:45am and slept until noon.

Today is day 7/7. I HAVE MADE IT! (after today)

Tomorrow I have plans to head to the Brooklyn Holiday Bazaar hopefully with someone, but if not then by myself to look for some Xmas prezzies before heading to Carlow East to watch the Hawks beat the Niners (again).

T-minus 11 days!
