My toe hurts like a you-know-what. For the past two or three weeks my big toes have been put through hell. It seems like everytime I play soccer they are getting stepped on or I make an immediate stop and they get slammed in the end of my shoes. All this trauma caused my toe nails to turn a nasty shade of black and now it seems they are starting to fall off. I first noticed a few days ago that I could lift half of my toe nail up and stick stuff between the toe and the nail. Now I can see that both are starting to detach themselves and be pushed up from a new nail growing underneath. Well today I was walking around the house and when I opened the door to the garage I opened it right into my big toe. It took just about every ounce of strength I had to not start swearing like a sailor and/or cry. I looked down to see my toe covered in blood. I hobbled over to the couch and began to inspect where exactly the bleeding was coming from. Basically the door ripped part of my nail off (the part that was still attached). Even now, about 12 hours later it is still throbbing, though, I did have to work tonight which I'm sure didn't help. So that's my toe story for you. I'll be sure to keep you all updated on the further disintegration of my foot.
Tonight was my last night of training for the bar and it was by far the craziest yet. "Thirsty Thursday" as we promote it is our happy hour to the max. We have tall beers for $2 and margs. for $3- along with other cheap deals, so we get a lot of business on Thursday nights. I made drink after drink after drink and it was a-w-e-s-o-m-e. I love this job! Finally, I get to work and not get into trouble for talking to people! We were busy all night and the only bad thing that happened was I had to work and close with Shawn- the cockiest bartender who thinks he is God's gift to the world. His idea of "training" is making me do all the stuff he is too lazy to do himself. He is the worst person ever to work with because everything has to be done his way or he won't stop complaining about it until is. So closing down the bar tonight involved me doing all the work while he ate some food and drank chocolate milk. I can't stand that A-hole.
Saturday is my first official shift as bartender- and I'll be on my own all of lunch. My friend, Alex, that was also training to be a bartender is no longer going to be and might be fired from serving too. He was taking his final bar test and got caught cheating. It sucks that he might get fired but it's fair. So I have to take all his shifts (which I'm totally cool with) and another guy, Chris, is going to start training now too. Chris is a super great guy and always nice so it will be good to work with him. Besides, he is really tall so he can get stuff from the top shelves for me.
Alright, thats about it. I just thought I'd give everyone a quick update.
