Had a so so time in directing class but had a good rest of the day since I got a new job waitressing at a country club. Hey, as long as I make money I'm fine.

Should be good tips at a country club I would imagine. Rich folks are always at either extreme when it comes to tipping. No middle ground. Either they're great tippers, or they're so cheap you wanna slap 'em.

About to head out to do some snackbar duty for my little brothers baseball team. Then just got some good news that I got hired at my uncles company that cleans hazardous chemical/oil. It pays $125 a day so I guess its better than nothing. Lol

Yeah, that's what I thought - though I'm hoping for great tippers over the cheap ones.  ;D

I spent years working over in Palm Beach re-fitting yachts for the super-rich. Some guys would slip you several hundred dollars. Some guys would run you like a maniac to meet their arbitrary deadline and never even look at you.

Best advise.......the folks who go out of their way to LOOK rich, ain't. They need all their spare cash to keep up appearances while they try to weasel their way into the good graces of the truly rich.

Find the table with the guys wearing faded jeans and topsiders who are at the club regularly. That's the REAL money.

Past couple days, digging, weeding, putting up fencing around front flower bed, chopping out dead stems, raking--getting ready for Spring.  Prepping for fertilizer, mulch, etc.  Veg. garden plot out back has some digging that needs done, too.  I can almost taste the fresh "termaters"!

Unknown Primate

Had a great day!  The wife and I have our 7 year old granddaughter for a whole week, so this morning we went downtown to watch and follow the (belated) St. Patrick's Day Parade.  T'was only a small gathering (about 150 or so), but we heard some great Celtic music & saw some cool dancing.  We then walked with the parade over the Wabash River, on the pedestrian bridge and tossed rose petals into the cold water below.  After an hour, we headed back to our car, then made a beeline to Bob Evans for rest & nourishment.  Then Walmart & Hobby Lobby before going back home after 3-4 hours of walking!  Ordered some pizzas and chowed down.  Then, while my wife kicked back on the couch for some tv time, Autumn & I made a purple cat, a yellow dog and a green gorilla out of SOFTEE DOUGH (an inexpensive knock-off of PLAY-DOH).  After we set them aside to dry, she dragged out some poster board, on which I drew a "springtime kids playing outside" scene for her to paint!  She just finished 30 minutes ago and even insisted on cleaning up after herself!  She & Granny just headed up to hit the sack!  After shutting down the computer and cleaning up after her "cleaning up", I'm going to drink some ice cold beer, eat some Chips Ahoy and watch an old monster movie.  

Does life really get any better than this?

I am one blessed primate!
