Thank you for all the sweet comments about my new hair!
It’s day 19! I’m so flipping sleepy, I feel like my sleep patterns get kind of messed up over the weekend (especially this one!) and then I feel like poop at the beginning of the week. Also today is a long shift because I’ve got a short Saturday at my main job this week, I’m struggling a bit but looking forward to my day off tomorrow, even though I have a lot I need to get done!
I really should have been productive on Saturday as I didn’t start work until 5 but I had a headache when I first woke up so I ended up just slobbing about the flat feeling rubbish until it was time to get ready for work! Work was ok though, it was really busy but we actually had enough people on for once, I had some really nice tables and I made the best tips since going back. There are some new people though who haven’t really got the message that you shouldn’t leave until your section is cleaned and set which is really frustrating because it leaves me with so much more to do on the close. One girl hung around to see if a table had tipped her and when she saw that they hadn’t she left that and 3 other tables with all their pizza boards and plates on them, I wouldn’t mind so much if she had cleared them and I just had to clean and set them but clearing them is kind of a pain. Last week I took over her tables when she left, she wasn’t even going to let me know what was going on with them but when I asked her she told me that they were waiting for desserts which she had already put through, so when their cookie dough came out I took them over to the table and they still had a table full of pizza that they wanted boxed up and all their plates! So she had taken a dessert order without even clearing anything which I think is kind of rude! I felt really stupid standing there with these puddings with nowhere to put them until I’d cleared their mains! But I haven’t said anything because I’m not good at confrontation… I did mention it to the managers both times but if it happens again next week I might have to say something to her.
I finished work at midnight on Saturday and I would have been there much later if the manager hadn’t helped me so much! Paul was at a house warming party at Adam and Jo’s house. I was invited but I need 4 weeks’ notice to book time off from Pizza Hut and no one really plans that far in advance! I messaged Paul when I finished work asking if he needed a lift and he said to come round. It was a little bit annoying that I hadn’t considered going there from work before because I didn’t have any normal clothes so I had to go in my uniform which probably smelt pretty gross after a 7 hour shift. I am really glad I went though because I’ve had to say no to the past few things because of work so it was really nice to see everyone. Paul’s friends Nick and Vicky just got engaged on Friday which is really exciting, her ring is really beautiful. Jo has a really cute dog called Henry who weirdly seemed to love me (I think it was the pizza smell!) so it was nice to have some doggy snuggles. Jo is a newer girlfriend than me, by nearly a year I think? But she seems to fit in to the group a lot better than I do, even though I’ve known a few of Paul’s friends since we were just friends when we worked together before. I think it’s just because I am super awkward and weird… I wish I wasn’t so rubbish in social situations but I fell like that’s just who I am now, like when I first got there I wanted to say congratulations to Nick and Vicky but because everyone was all talking together and they were sat on opposite sides of the room from one another, I just didn’t. I did say it as they were leaving but I’m not sure if they heard, it might have just been drowned out by the general goodbyes but I don’t want them to think I’m a dick. Also the other girlfriends seem to be super close and hang out by themselves together, 3 of them are super sporty so they do runs and yoga and stuff together. I wish I wasn’t so awkward. I do love the friends I do have and I’m really glad that we’ve stayed in touch after I left that job but I don’t feel like we are super close. I feel like not having any friends makes it hard to make friends because you just look like a massive weirdo! Anyway I’m glad I went and it was nice to see everyone and drunk/high Paul is super cute. We didn’t get home until just before 3am, Paul fell asleep and started snoring literally as soon as he got in to bed, usually I won’t say anything but because I was working the next day I was like ‘Paul! You’re snoring!’ and he said in a very drunk-sounding way ‘I know, I woke myself up!’ then I asked him if he could budge over a bit and he started saying that he could move but I couldn’t because I’m not a member, when I asked him a member of what? He said of ‘golf weekly’ he was talking about it for a bit longer and then I just burst out laughing because he wasn’t making any sense and he started laughing too. I asked him about the next morning and he couldn’t remember it at all!
I did not feel great the next morning, I hadn’t drunk anything, I was just tired and I was a bit grumpy with Paul because I had to leave so much earlier to take him back to his car at Adam’s, he sent me a really sweet text to say thanks though, and once I got to work it actually wasn’t too bad.
I really need to stop letting all the cleaning and chores build up until my day off because it sucks having to use my only day off in 3 weeks to clean my flat. Hopefully I will have some time left over for something fun!
