In the Begining...
I think that it's important to remember when you are going out to eating establishments, that you heckle the highered help. Especially if they have a thick accent. Whilest we were waiting for our drinks, we tried to use what learned know hows and educated a guess as to where Slava was from. Ukraine, Romania, I think I was guessing Estonia. With much of "Meh'ing" and a few "where the hell is a map when you need one" we settled that Slava, our server for the eveing was from somewhere in Russia. At first our expectations of Slava were not good, especially after i spilled my drink and he forgot to bring me a refill. I did give Slava an E for effort, he was taking our order with different colored pens.
I wonder how amazingly orginized my life would be if i wrote things down in different colored ink for various notes I have hanging on my computer. An example of this is...well see this this one right here, this is the number of a guy that my boss needed to call, this reads Important. it was dated two weeks ago. How in hell am i suppose to see that? It's written in the same colored ink as the note right next to it that reads "you need to buy toilet paper" and the one next to that that reads "Futureheads-Really cool band check it out". Now if that number my boss needed was in a very fashion forward green ink, I might be inclined to have said "my that is a great color, and that is an important number the boss must see that" and stick that to HIS computer where I know that it will once again, go ignored. But at least I was orginized!
In the end, we don't know where Slava is from, but he got our order to us. It was tasty and delicious!
I say this all the time... I should have my own list of band, or books or things that people who are total geeks like me should want to listen to or read. The first one is the lyrics to one of the funniest Nerotic girl songs I know.
"I used to have the world in my handbag, How did I manage to blow it?I missed the bus, I lost my heart And an awful lot of mornings. I used to have the stars in my pockets, Now I just watch them on TV. My friends, they've all run awayBut they'll come back again! And we'll have a celebration, Getting back on my medication, We'll have a rainy day parade!" Rainy Day Parade by Jill Sobule
