Pepper

So, today started out like every other day. By the by, happy birthday to my friend and co-worker Lindsay. Morning was fine. Nine of us from work went to Rainwaters (a restaurant) for lunch for her birthday. Lindsay, Holly, Raylene, and I definitely had the giggles and were laughing the entire time. Not to mention Brian was joining them in making fun of me...but nothing new there.

Here are the events of lunch. A waiter unintentionally scared Holly to death by creeping up to her if she wanted a refill on her drink, or something like that. Laughed about that. Then he creeped up again and as I grabbed my water glass I saw his pitcher of water about to pour in my glass. Sneaky little fella. After each person got their meal he would ask us if we wanted fresh ground pepper. In the laughing state we were in, it was rather funny that after every single person it was the same "freshgound pepper?"

Another coworker at the end of the table thought that the waiter was cute and told me that I should ask him for his number. Everyone else at the table proceeded to embarass me and they talked about what the waiter and my wedding would be like....you know instead of throwing rice in the air people would throw pepper. Joyce, the woman who thought he was cute, asked him what his name was and if he was single. Turns out he is....therefore everyone kept telling me to ask for his number and whatnot. He totally knew what was up and was getting embarassed meanwhile my entire table is laughing hysterically. So, I wrote my number down on a piece of paper and when we were leaving I said "Thanks for helping us out today" and handed him my paper.

So lunch was hysterical. I go back to work, resume whatever I'm doing and everyone keeps coming up to me and starts asking me about pepper. Good lord...good times. An hour later, Lindsay comes up to me and asks me to come up to the front desk. I was busy so I asked her if she could give me five minutes and she said, "well IIIIIII can." I was like, you have got to be kidding me. SO I go to the front desk and low and behold, the waiter is in our reception area. Yep, my face turned bright ass red. That takes some balls to come up to my work place. Apparently Joyce said that he should stop by on his break and told him where we all worked. I'll tell you what WOW.

Talked with him outside for 10 minutes then I said I should probably get back to work. He gave me his number and said give me a call. I said things dont work that way and he said he would call me later.

SOOOOO we'll see what happens. But jesus, that fucking hilarious. I was not expecting my day to go anything like that.


Jenny and I went to fashion valley after work. As we were leaving I said we should stop by the shoe store. It was closed.

Me: We should go to Steve Madden.
Jenny: But it's closed.
Me: It's ok. We can do a walk-by. It's kinda like a drive-by but not.
Jenny: It's a drive-by shoeing!!!


Greatest joke ever. And my day is complete.
