Day 347! A quick blog post for you all! Today was another day of relaxing and work, but I did make it out of the house again! But by the end of the day, we had a really slow work shift… which was quite odd for a summer Saturday night. I’m sure we won’t have many more of these.

I decided to lie in a little bit this morning again, but I wasn’t going to let that hold me back from going outside to read again!

I made myself breakfast, watched a couple episodes of My Hero Academia, and then set off out into the beautiful day.

I hobbled my way up the steep hill to the park I sat in yesterday. The bench I was sitting at was being used for someone’s lunch, so I meandered around until I found a bench by itself in the shade.

It was a perfect day to go to the beach and I was definitely envious of everyone swimming in the ocean. But, this will have to do for the next two and a half weeks or so!

I read for a couple hours enjoying the wonderful weather and watching a bunch of opportunistic birds hop around from table to table.

I decided to head home around 2:30pm to eat and rest up before my work shift at 5pm. It’s Saturday night, so I was hoping it would be a hectic and fun shift…

After eating my tuna wraps and relaxing, it was time to head to the hotel.

By this point, it was VERY hot and humid out and I was sweating by the time I got to work. Luckily, we have a cool room which helped a ton. I clocked on ready for the fun to begin… but it ended up being an insanely slow night!

There were still plenty of people, but there was a fraction of the crowd we should’ve had. I heard the other main bar in town had a DJ playing tonight. But their loss, because we had a phenomenal blue grass band playing. They were super energized and had the whole band kit from fiddle to banjo.

I stayed till close and played a couple games of pool before getting a ride back home from one of my coworkers.

By this point, it was almost 2am… so I went straight to bed with plans to write this blog post in the morning! My shift tomorrow got moved from a 10am start to 11am, apparently you need 10 hours between each shift start. But I’ll happily take the extra sleep!
