So, I spent the majority of my day napping and munching on holiday snacks.  I didn’t think to make a stop @ the grocery store before everything shut down all day, so I had a mighty big helping of G’ma’s fudge and Cheetos (thank God I bought the big bag).  I just kept thinking, Who the hell eats like this on Christmas?!  All I could picture was my family, all over @ somebody’s house somewhere in Texas, eating hot foods.  It was too depressing.  I went into BJ’s room and borrowed his sword (don’t ask) to prepare myself for a samurai-style suicide but ended up falling asleep before it got too drastic.   When I woke up it was 9pm and I had to get ready for work, so I took a look out the window and was FLOORED @ all the snow.  I had no idea it was going to snow like this today.  I got dresed in about 17 layers of flannel and ran outside.  It took like, 20 minutes to talk to the subway b/c the white was so deep, but also b/c I kept stopping to play in the snow.  It was EVERYWHERE!  Suddenly I wasn’t sad anymore, in fact I couldn’t stop laughing.  I felt about 6 years old.  It’s amazing how something that has nothing to do with any part of your day can comepletely change it anyway.  My first real, white christmas.

Monica Lewinsky checked into the hotel tonight.  I love it that we upgraded her from a Standard Room to a Deluxe Studio for no damn reason other than being a really popular slut.  I swear, kids, you know you have truly  arrived when your gag reflex gets you into places that you could never afford on your own.  So apparently, Little Misss Suckie-Suckie requested to be moved to three different rooms during her first hour of checking in.  she said the first 2 were smoking rooms and that she couldn’t stay in them b/c “… um, they like, stink of cigars.”  Heh, cigars.  The irony just doesn’t get any more delicious than that.  Not even if Alanis Morrisette is sitting on your shoulders, playing a guitar and singing a song about it.  Ahhh, I LOVE this shit. 

Work wasn’t too bad.  We had plenty of rooms so I knew it’d be a pretty smooth night.  What made it even better was when a little bird told me about the FREE FOOD that they serve every night in the kitchen after 12:30am!  I’m talking steaks and chicken and pot roast and meatballs and OH! MAH! GOD!  I ate like a greedy bitch.   I am so happy, I am so happy that I didn’t have to go the whole Christmas Day having only eaten chocolate and Cheetos.  Another cool thing about tonight, I worked with Dhalimu and out of nowhere he told me what a fantastic job I am doing.  I was like, “Huh?”  He said I’m proactive and upbeat, that he’s found my attitude to be my strongest attribute and thinks that I am the best one they’ve got right now.  Color me STUNNED.. and really touched.  Maybe all of the managers said the exact same thing to everybody on staff this week @ some point… who cares?  I am a rockstar, sometimes, and I am just gonna take ownership of this one.  It was sort of like a little Christmas present that I really, really needed.

  Merry Christmas, winners!
