Entry 10 – Weekend Update

Well this will go down as one of my top five all time worst weekends EVER. In addition, I have discovered copious amounts of pilling on my formerly favorite sweater vest. (Needleburn calls it my Sweet-er Vest, as I once unknowingly walked around all day with a peppermint candy from the Indian Restaurant (Ali-Babb-Ahhs!)) Don’t ask me how it got there!

Safe to say, that 10 hours + sitting in the scorching hot sun at TECHFest! on the campus of Trinity Jesuit College (Class of 92 – GO BENGALS!) hawking our newest YD 4000 Home Appliance Kit for Kids(r) did wonders for my morale. And of course as I was being cooked alive in my pilly sweater vest, which by then had started to stink of body sweat and artificial mint, who walks up to check in? Jane Singletary! I KNOW! My old nemesis from my days in the RatTrap. FYI, the RatTrap was what we jokingly called our cafetorium (half auditorium/half cafeteria). I held a coveted work study position scrubbing plates and Jane was my “manager”. I won’t go into details, but I will never be able to eat Polish sausage or lima beans again. It was really great to see her again. NOT. Let’s just say that she reminds me a lot of Clarissa “It’s Easier in Quark” Starkey in the Graphics Dept. THAT should tell you all you need to know.

In desperate need of a smoothie. I wish I worked in a cafetubicle (half-cafeteria/ half-cubicle!)
