Hailey and Sippy

Today while Hailey and Cassie and Jonny were over visiting for the day, I brought out my laptop and I remembered that I have a cool feature on it that Hailey would most likely love... She did of course. We took some pretty fun pictures using my Mac.

Oh Galveston...

When I got back from Amarillo I was transferred yet again to beloved Galveston Island. So I am now a manger there, and it is awesome. I get to meet all kinds of new people. ANd I have had experiences that I probably wouldn't ever get anywhere else. I've had a bum try to steal an armadillo from my bar, and had to ask him to give it back to me. He did. I've had to kick that same bum out of my restaurant because he was looking for free food and we don't do that. I've had to ask people to put clothes on over their swimsuits.... Never thought I would have to ask someone to put more clothes on, I thought it was a given when you go to a family restaurant. I had to tell a guy just the other night that we could no longer serve him alcohol. Luckily for me he was understanding and I didn't have to call the cops on him. I GET to have the privilege of the locals and BOI (born on the island) folks to come in to my store. They all think that if they bring that up when I go talk to them that they are going to get something from me... they're not. I don't care if you are a local or not, you are going to be treated just the same as everyone else that comes into the place. When I have people tell me that they are locals or BOI I want to say something to the effect of why? Like why did they stick around this awful place... If you read this and you are a local or BOI I apologize, however that is how I feel. Everyday I work I get to watch the ocean and hate my life for being stuck inside on beautiful days when the water looks so inviting.

On the plus side, I do have some great people that work with me that make the 45+ minute drive, and all the crap, some what worth it. They all like me, and work really hard. It may be a little scary at times there in Galveston, but it's really an ok place at the end of the day when I leave. I'm just ready to be done and move on to bigger and better places. And by bigger and better I mean anywhere besides Galveston. I tried to get pictures of the beloved place to upload but I couldn't for some reason. I will try again later.
