I started my site on a whim, and unlike Achie Gulaman I am not as religious when it comes to updating. Im not as literary as her, and quite frankly my life is not as colorful as hers. But like she said, "just write whatever you want to" so I shall...TRY.

I am in my last week of vacation in the Philippines. A yearly ritual of agony, but one I have to make. I am a stranger in my own house. It has been years, one would think I am used to it by now. Partly yes, partly no.

Being disowned is a helluva way to live. Eh?

I got a reply from someone in India, so my blog is world famous. I am still trying to find a way to handle all the attention and power that comes from being a international celebrity. I have decided that fame won't change me, so I will continue laughing at things that are not funny and making dangerous weapons with no forthought or respect to humanity.

Good Times

Why my work is fun:
I work at a Dairy Queen. Normally, this would be a booring and tedious job, but not for me. This is because I mess with the customers for fun. For instance, a otherwise normal transaction usually goes something like this:

Me: Hi,
Customer: Hi, I would like one medium dipped -cone.
Me: Extra-medium?
Customer: What?
Me: Would you like that dipped in chocolate, butterscotch, or Gravy?
Customer: GRAVY???!!!
Me: Okay, and would you like anything else?
Customer: No, I don't want gravy, I was just surprised, I would like chocolate.
Me: Oh, okay.....Is that "for here" or "for here"?
Customer: Actually, that's to go.
Me: That comes to $87.50
Customer: For one dipped cone???!!!!!!!
Me: You didn't order the 23 small cookie dough blizzards with chocolate ice cream?
Customer: No I didn't
Me: okay, that comes to $1.49
Customer: (Hands me two dollars) "Here you go."
Me: (Handing him 51 cents.) "out of a $50, so $48.51 is your change."
Me: (handing them the dipped cone) "Here's your deluxe cheseburger with extra pickles."


OR it might go something like this:


Me: Hi, what can I get for you?
Customer: I would just like one small fry.
Me: Would you like nuts or whipped cream on that?
Customer: On a small fry?
Me: yes.
Customer: No I don't.
Me: okay, would you like any fries with that?
Customer:What?
Me: That comes to $1.79
Customer: here's a $50.
Me: (giving him $48.21) "six cents is your change. "
Customer:Um,...... thank you.
Me: It will be ready in just a minute, and if it's not, ...well, ..it turns out that I get paid anyway.
Me:(When I hand them the fry) Here's your hot fudge sundae with extra hot fudge.
Customer: Um,.......thank you.
