Ordeal

I just had one of the longest nights of work ever. Not counting Black Friday.

I don't even know what happened. Nothing was done, but I was told stuff was done, and since I've never worked at that store...well, I didn't know what really needed to be done at night vs. morning tasks.

So we finally finished the dishes at 11. Then I mistakenly locked the key that locks the doors in the safe. So I had to wake the store manager up and she had to drive all the way from Waukesha to lock the doors behind us. I felt like a huge idiot, but at least she wasn't mean about it. She was pretty nice actually. I felt really badly for the other barista, since I couldn't let her go home and stay at the store by myself. The boy ended up having to go drive around, because we got out like an hour after expected.

So it's 12:30 and I'm just settling in to a quesadilla, because The Boy remembered to pick up flour tortillas :)

Tomorrow I'm going ice skating at Red Arrow, with the people from work, which I'm really looking forward to. What I'm not looking forward to is making all the gingerbread I promised everyone. I like making the cookies, but not guarding them from The Boy's ravenous appetite for ginger.

At least I can sleep in tomorrow.

I must have rubbed off on you. I shouldn't have stopped in. I'm the master of disaster when it comes to keys and locks ;-)

Did I spy some kind of huge oven when I was there? That was something I hadn't seen before.

No oven yet, but there is rumor that that location will be retrofitted for warming. I know the new 'bux on Center right next to Mayfair has warming, and I believe has the breakfast sandwiches.

Now I know why I was having such a hard time with the other keys ;)
