there are easy people and very difficult people in life.

The Easy People are easy breezy. Meaning, when asked "what do you want to eat?" they say "what about this place?"

Then when you get there, you realize there's a 2 hour wait. the Easy People write down their names with you and you guys chat for 2 hours about random crap. When people come and join you and they're running late, they don't seem to notice.

when eating, the Easy People order what they like and eat, talk and pay normally. It's not that they're really crazy Easy People, it's just that they don't stand out. You don't notice them being difficult in any way.


The Difficult People stand out.

When asked what they want to eat, the Difficult People say "anywhere but _____ and _____ and ______!" So they suggest a place that they want and everyone agrees.

When arriving to that location, they are hit with the 2 hour wait. They are shocked and ask many questions like "do you think if we have less people it would be faster? Are you just saying 2 hours or is really less?" They also happen to have a very tight schedule that day and need to be somewhere 1 hour after the wait. So they are irked and check the time quite often. They also complain about the people coming in late because they think it's unfair. (Which yes, it is, but hey it happens!)

This makes eating a "thing to get over with" and not enjoyable. They pay and talk in a rush, always talking about where they need to go. They also always ask a lot of questions about the food, about the menu, prices, etc. It's really not that bad, but when you realize all these little things coming together, you realize that they hey...! they're kind of being difficult!

I've been reading my old xanga posts and it's so great to remember those tiny small moments in the past! I would have never remembered them if I had never blogged about them.  It reminded me how much I need to talk and discuss about my daily life.

Today I went to the coffee shop on 57th and 3rd Ave to work on my wedding stuff and blog.  I felt like I had a super successful morning so I came home and pigged out on pasta that I made last night.

I've been having lots of stomach issues--- due to stress? Perhaps, but it's a cop-out way of finding out what's really bothering me.  I knew my stress was going to cause stomach problems, because that's what usually happens.  But it's been about 2 weeks since I've been going #3 (TMI, I know) and I know that's not good.  I've been guzzling down liters of gatorade to rehydrate myself so I won't get super dehydrated.  I still don't know what the cause is, but I hope it goes away!!  Praying that you don't go #3 during the day is not a great thing!

Tomorrow is Day #2 of being a Crumbs Associate.  It's a very humbling thing to go back to work with high schoolers and college students.  I can see their surprise when they hear that I've been out of college for 4 years and that I'm married.  I'm older than some of the managers!  It's also humbling to go back to cleaning the trash cans and mopping.  Man.. mopping hurts the back!

But humility is good. It was always something I needed to work on. 

Onward we go...
