12/30 Things: Day

12/30 Questions to get to know me better: Day

(To get caught up on 30 Things and know what it is all about start here.)
My inspiration for this set of posts comes from a great blog called Hopes & Dreams, you should really check her out.

Describe a typical day in your current life?

6:05 AM wake up when my boyfriend is leaving for school / work and is talking to me via the computer screen across the room from the Skype call that I fell asleep during last night and is still on.  Mumble to him that I love him and hopes he has a good day, then roll over and fall right back asleep.
Between 8:45 and 10 AM : get up and start my day.  Yeah I know that is late for most people but since I don’t get off work till 2:30 AM I am not in bed sleeping until close to 4 AM so … that is still only 6 or so hours of sleep.
I make breakfast, shower and play on my computer.  Check e-mails, Facebook and eBay. If I have sold anything get it packaged and ready to ship. I feed Gunner and play with him for a little while out back.
11:15 AM I make my lunch and dinner for the day and head off to the post office or if I don’t have any packages to ship I read or play on my computer some more. 
11:40 AM I leave for work
Noon: clock in at work, do my side work and set up.  Then I sit with my Kindle and read until my first customer walks in (usually around 3:25PM)
Hang out with my regulars, have lunch,  read some more till about 6:45 PM when people getting off work come in and it actually picks up a bit.
Busy ish from about 7PM till 10:30PM then its back to just some of my late night pool playing regulars.  I eat dinner and pump money into the juke box.
1:25 AM possibly call cabs for those I know will need it, just to be ready.
1:45 PM Turn down Juke box and yell call last call, serve another round of 2 of drinks and start cleaning up the tables and chairs.  Remind everyone they have till 2:15 to drink up then I pull drinks.
2:05 AM “No you can’t have another round its after 2AM.  No my boss will know there are cameras everywhere and they POS records time of sale” Remind everyone they have 10 minutes to finish up their drinks. Turn up most of the lights.
2:10AM Remind everyone to come pay their tabs and that I will be pulling drinks in 5 minutes so drink up
2:12 AM “No I won’t add one more beer to your tab before you close out”
2:15 AM Turn off Juke box and turn up all the lights to full blast. Run around and pull all drinks left out, some right out of folks hands.  Start showing people to the door.
2:20 AM Turn the juke box on so I am not working in silence.  Finish cleaning up behind the bar and start on the bathrooms.  Take all trash to the dumpster, haul all recycling bottles to that dumpster. Run my reports, lock up cash in safe, turn off all beer lights, games
2:30 AM sit and wait for that last freaking cab to show up so I can lock up and go home.
3 AM get home and shower always all the smoke smell from my hair, Skype my boyfriend and fall asleep while talking to him.
And yeah I get to do it all again tomorrow too!!  LOL
Come back tomorrow for more: 5 weakness you have.  Well that one feels like a job interview questions Sad smile
 

Sláinte,
Kat
