Hello readers! Today I came in and started serving at approximately 1pm and stayed until closing. I came with my hair braided down the back so I wouldn’t have a repeat of the hair incident from my previous post. It was a nice and relaxing day there, partly because not many people came in. However, [...]

Hello readers, I am happy to report that I am easing into this profession nicely. It’s like I’m lowering myself into a hot, bubble bath… only, bubble baths don’t really make me feel this nervous, so this analogy kinda flops.

Hi, readers. Today is a travel day and I feel miserable with this cold. However, thanks to my new traveling partner, Dramamine, my cold was the only thing I was miserable with today. *I don’t miss you, nausea.* I slept most of the first flight, which was roughly around 4 hours from Las Vegas, Nevada [...]

Wow. What a day. … I’m pretty wiped and I didn’t do as much as some of the team members at our booth. I’m still catching my breath! Whew! Hello, readers! Today I helped out at CES for the first time. Since last night, Daniel and I have been pretty strict on our cold medicine doses [...]

Hello, readers. I am writing to you from our room today in the Plaza hotel. My body is getting weary of fighting off sickness. Daniel left at 7 this morning, and I slept in until 9:30. His voice is shot, his throat hurts, but he has to do what he came here to do. He’s [...]
