It's me with Valisa (left) and Caroline (right) after graduation-- aren't they just beautiful?! I feel like a proud mama ;)
I got a Facebook message from Michael today about the summer classes at Callanwolde Fine Arts Center, which arrived at just the right time! I'd been thinking about dance classes, not sure whether I wanted to do them or not, but right there on the Callanwolde list was a modern dance class for adults taught my my dance teacher of 16 years! It's $140 for the 10 week course, which is actually $1 a class cheaper than at my old dance school, but the money is due at registration time (by class time on June 2nd) so I'll have to have some really great nights between now and the end of the month to afford it since I won't have had my first paycheck from camp. Perhaps, if I don't get a computer this weekend, I can borrow the money from Jeremy or something. It would be great to dance again, and I'm sure Kate would get a kick out of seeing me again! Even though I'd be terribly nervous about it... I haven't danced in so long...
I'm also planning a surprise for Jeremy, which I'm very excited about-- tomorrow, I'll be going to Emile Baran to deal with the jerk owner to try and figure out what needs to be done. At least I know he'll do the right thing, and do it well.
That's about all for now; slow night at work and a decent drive back from Memphis. For now, I'm going to watch this last episode of Desperate Housewives and hit the hay. Big day of errands tomorrow!

Boredom strikes again...
The last week or so has been a little crazy and a little boring all at once. I had a fever for the first time in years, which was strange, and I didn't realize it for a few hours. Last night at work was a little slow, and we had the rudest most ill-behaved people in I've seen yet. They barely tipped me 10% because they were ticked that we didn't have more specials and I wouldn't let them take an open bottle of wine with them. I've been asked several times about whether we do cork and carry (meaning, if you start a bottle and don't finish it, you can take it with you) and the answer is no.
These two argued with me about it, they kept insisting City of Decatur had passed the law (where it frankly doesn't make sense to me that they would, we're not a "walk around with an open container of alcohol kind of place) and that they'd been doing it everywhere else, and got totally bent out of shape when I told them that it wasn't our policy and the City of Decatur hadn't notified us, I couldn't double check with anyone because there was nobody to double check with, we'd just had a staff meeting and we would have been notified, and no, we wouldn't make more money, because we have a retail license to sell bottles of wine to take home and they were welcome to do that if they liked.
Then, they left, finally. And left one of the hallway doors wide open, which made the hall even colder than it was before and forced up the heating. I was really ticked off. This was the same woman (the cheap Tara Reid knockoff) who ordered six bruschettas to go when they were on special, and who tried to order more of the specials to go another time over the phone and got irritated when we wouldn't let her take them out. I really hope they never come back again. They spent $50 and tipped me $6. Jerks.
One of the knitting clubs was back last night, though, and I always enjoy them-- one of them just found out she's about six weeks pregnant which is really exciting. Even the new one who came off a little rude warmed up and was really sweet by the end of the night. I think next Monday, Megan and her crew should be back-- they're the crazy fun ones.
Speaking of work, it's time to head out. I'm not expecting much from a Tuesday night, so if we don't have anyone in I'm going to start designing the surprise I'm making for my bridesmaids and Ana.
