a new job

The last two nights I've been working closing shift at work instead of the mornings. I really feel like I'm at a new job. Instead of serving irritable people in the morning, I get to serve happy-go-lucky-take-your-time customers who actually enjoy having a conversation with you. Plus, there was never a line out the door and we actually had time to do tasks that I never get to during the morning rush. Ok, maybe it didn't feel like a new job, but it did feel like the old job, but much more enjoyable and relaxing minus much anxiety.

Oh, and for those curious folk, it has been 2 weeks with no caffeine. I feel great and don't miss it a bit. Sugar, on the other hand, is a different story. I went 10 days without it and then decided, what the heck, I'll get a peanut butter mountain from ritter's. That was last friday and since then I've had a big chocolate chip cookie. That's 2 items in 2 weeks. If I had kept up my sugar intake the way it was, I would have probably ingested 14 chocolate chip cookies and a few bowls of icecream. Not to mention any other unplanned tasty sweet treat that might cross my path along the way.


To those of you who think all I eat is carrots and lettuce, I had this for lunch the other day... it was great. And yes, I ate almost the whole thing. Yeah, then the chocolate chip cookie topped it off!
So, I can still pack it down. I remember in high school I was accused of having a hollow leg. I've had many eating contests in my day and always seem to pull ahead. Maybe both my legs are hollow.
