Can I go yet?!

Today I am totally impatient. Totally and completely impatient. I am staring at the clock just watching the minutes tick by hoping for it to be 5:00. I am starting to answer the phones in a rush and typing labels less neatly. I want to leave. I am dying to leave! Two of my three bosses have already taken off for the weekend (one actually declared “it’s Miller Time!), and if that last one would decide to join suit, I could go too.

Not only is it a Friday, but this is the night my friends and I have decided to celebrate Halloween. I am so excited, I can hardly stand it! I actually had a pretty rough morning but kept thinking about tonight and that really made all the difference. Finally, a night of crazy debauchery in Alabama – maybe it will feel a bit like home. Well, no that will never happen… but more realistically I am excited because it is a welcome change of pace from the monotony my new lifestyle provides. *sigh*

So here I sit, watching the clock and planning out every little preparation I will need to accomplish this evening to be the hottest little plumber I can be! Planning out my makeup, the hair, and the undergarments (which will most likely show with such a little costume!) Need to shave my legs, do my nails, figure out what slutty shoes to throw on, etc. Figure out a way to strap my cell phone to my wrist since I can just envision myself stumbling around and dropping it to the bar floor. Maybe I should just leave it at home and avoid the drunken phone calls I will undoubtedly make all together. Nah… where is the fun in that?!

I have never spent this holiday away from home, away from my best friends, away from the scene I am so used to. But I plan to make the best of it and soak up all that Alabama has to offer! I wouldn’t have necessarily chosen to spend my favorite holiday away from everything I know and love, but I will try my best to bring a bit of Seattle to the evening’s festivities.

So I say to you, “If the ocean were liquor and I were a duck I would dive to the bottom and drink my way up. But since the ocean ain't liquor and I'm no duck, pour me a shot and let's get fucked up!” Happy Halloween!
