usually i get to work a few minutes early... we're supposed to start at 10. i get there around 9:50, and everyone else gets there at 10:10. and since it's cold outside, what i do... is sit in my car, until they open the doors. today, was like any other day. i was just sitting there, in a fairly empty parking lot, and this old man comes and parks next to me. he gets out and starts walking towards the steak place, and he was just so adorable. he had this really worn tan fedora. WITH a feather... he was wearing a jacket, it was brown. he had on green pants. and brown leather shoes. i kept thinking about how maybe he was really hip in his day... and had all of the ladies swooning over his suave ways. i suppose it was more of a madmen spin-off... either way, i ripped out a page of my moleskine notebook, and wrote him a note. not anything creepy i promise. just a little message to thank him for being so cool. :)
things were pretty slow today, but one of the first customers that came in, an indian couple, brought their son in with them. he had the best craziest hair! it was curly, and completely disheveled. he had these HUGE adorable brown eyes with the tiniest little puffy mouth. he kept looking at me so, i made faces at him. sometimes when the kids are too little to use the glass cups, we give them little plastic cups with a lid and a straw so they can feel special too, so i brought him one. and he immediately took the straw out and started chomping on it. and then used his chubby little fingers to flip the cup upside down and bang it on the table :)
when they were ready to leave, his dad picked him up out of the high chair, and this little boy started kicking his legs like he was ready to start running as soon as he hit the ground...
