Apprentice Chef: Week Four

I do not remember much from this week, all except for having been overly exhausted. Monday and Tuesday were quite fast, but also enjoyable. Wednesday and Thursday, being my days off were spent watching movies and cuddling with my little face planter. ^,.,^ Thursday night was a treat though. Had found the opportune moment to finally pay a visit to Jess with Abdel. I really missed seeing familiar faces.
What could be better though with company than a visit to Checkers for a burger and milkshake. Food was my treat for us all. I didn’t feel up to munching on food though, had a lack of appetite that day from what I remember.
Came Friday, it was a shift from 16:00-22:00. Clocked in, grabbed my glass of water, and went straight to cooking. Not that bad, until the band rolled in around 20:00. Was able to cook myself some food for the road, then it was off to see Jess and Abdel, enjoy a delicious beverage at Fat Tuesday’s. I ordered the Kickin’ Lemonade with a shot of Vodka! Mmmm, good stuff! Hey, I can’t help it, I love my vodka, but the one I truly enjoy above all Vodka is my Polish Vodka or Potato Vodka. Far more delicious and without the effects of a hangover. Of course it still gives you a good buzz, if you’re looking for that sort of enjoyment, but there’s no hangover in the morning, so no need for pills to kill the splitting headache. Good tip!
Saturday, received a visit from my cousins and uncle. I missed them dearly. Unfortunately I was unable to stay as long as I would have liked, had to leave for work. I was able to catch though on some months of information and a year or two regarding my cousins son, my cousin once removed. So that was a nice chat. With luck, come the next visit, I’ll have some more time to kill for a longer chat.
After having clocked out from work, was picked up, drove to the aunts house, showered and knocked out on the couch watching “Die Schule der Kleinen Vampire.” It is quite addicting- as you can tell.
I felt so terribly exhausted, all I could do was lay on the couch and zonk out. I woke up around midnight, ate my dinner, watched some more of my German vampire, drove back home and hit the pillows happily.
Sunday, I only remember the feeling of exhaustion once again.

Morning Meet Up & A Damn Good Burger!

Alright, now I know a burger doesn’t classify as breakfast to the average human, but let’s face it; I’m an eccentric, hyper nut that enjoys doing the opposite of the average human and a burger sounded fitting to me. Although, hitting around noon, technically, deems it lunch, but to me it was breakfast, for an empty stomach is all I had on me aside from my bag and wicked cool company joined by conversation, food and beer.
Beer, no, not mine, my friends. I’m not a beer kind of girl, never have been. Don’t like the flavour of the smell. And out of all the ones I’ve tried; which has been quite a few, and not very good I might add; there’s only been one, Ying-Ling I believe that tasted remotely satisfying. *One thumb up* Any way, last Monday was a change in pace from the usual mornings of wake up, cuddle kitty, plan ideas for outfits/makeup and photoshoots and conventions, sit around and be surrounded by boredom; so as you can tell, hanging out was definitely a wonderful treat.
As I’ve mentioned, or probably haven’t, mostly all my conversations, the ones I have with almost everyone I know and have befriended, ALWAYS and I mean ALWAYS, lead into a sexually based topics with a humorous take to them; whether it be about a particular film- Cemetery Man; Frankenhooker; Dracula: Dead and Loving it, the list goes on- or other topics that have the ever famous sexual jokes or innuendos thrown into them, that are never too far behind in any given conversation I take part in. Well said conversations occurred on that day, and boy were we cracking up. Although, I was surprised just as much as Felix was, to see children being brought there to eat with their parents. Not exactly a “profanity-free zone” or “children-friendly zone” Burgerfi in Miracle Mile. So to save their innocence, we did them a HUGE favour by leaving the outdoor seating area to moving indoors, which sort of rid us of this pesky fly that tried to have a go at the beer and food. Annoying little pest.
After having done our good deed for the day, we got to chatting a tad more, then onto a list of appreciating certain films/film makers and ideas of future projects we have in mind and our top 5 B Horror movies. Hey, I can’t live without them, they’re a classic and have a special place in my heart since I’ve grown up with watching all that wonderful, sappy, cheesy, horror movie, comedy type stuff.
After a last few minutes of some serious talking it was time for goodbyes and home bound for me. Luckily, just in time before the rain caught me.
