beansideIt's ass o'clock and I'm upright, so it must be a weekday. Today I start my real training (finally). I'm a little nervous, but I think I'll be okay. Still have some leftover trauma from 911, where the training went fine, and then I got on the phones and it was all shit. I mean, I won't be on the phones for a few weeks, but anxiety isn't rational. It's all about what if I can't focus, and I get kicked out, and then someone says "I always knew you were going to suck."
It's totally not going to, but anxiety is not rational.
We ended up leaving Philly early, and stopping at the Cracker Barrel in Elkton on the way home. They weren't at all busy, which kind of surprised me. I expected it to be bugfuck, even at 9:30am on a Sunday. Breakfast was pretty tasty. Their berry cheesecake french toast was excellent. Traffic was a breeze and we were home by 11am.
After watching the new Road House on Saturday, Jess admitted that they'd never watched the original, so we're working on that. We paused last night because of too many interruptions, but will pick it back up tonight, maybe. We shall see.
It's funny to see the difference from the original. It was very much a product of the times, with the random nudity and slurs. It's amazing how much movies have changed since then. I don't have to worry so much about the F-slur being dropped randomly. I'm still enjoying the movie, but things have definitely progressed somewhat since then.
Now I'm looking forward to next weekend, post payday, when we're going to go out somewhere fun for lunch. Right now, we're leaning towards going to Kpot for hotpot and Korean BBQ, but Fogo is also in the running. They're currently having a special for $44, which would be about the same price as Kpot. Both sound really good to me, so I am 100% neutral. Unless I get a serious hankering for steak between now and then.
But first, work.
And now I shall get myself together for said work. Everyone have a wonderful Monday!
