Hey everyone,
Happy Halloween, I hope you're having an enjoyable one so far. At the moment, I am dodging little kids by dropping on my living room floor. It's kinda like Sarajevo in the 1990s in this joint. Okay I know, we should have candy. Things got a bit crazy between work schedules and what not. Besides, I'm not giving them crappy candy, good candy is hard to find in rural NH. But in any case, it should be over soon enough, and there's enough candy in town to speed up childhood obesity without our help.
Besides, I have enough people who want me to go out tonight...and I don't even have a damn costume. Yeah, that's right, I did not plan on having on because I thought I would be working. Such is life. And don't even think I'd do "sexy nurse" or "sexy cop." First off, they're cheapo costumes and are overdone. Second, I like classy costumes, not slutty costumes. If I want to look slutty, I'll go to a street corner and make some money. Otherwise, give me an original or well done classic costume.
You all must think I hate Halloween. I really don't, I just didn't have time to plan for it this year. It also doesn't help that the nearest places for parties are over 20 miles away, and those are at bars, so...bad combination right there. In any case, we'll see what happens, maybe things will pan out and be freakin' awesome.
However, I am planning an adventure to Plymouth tomorrow, so I can't be out til 3:30 am. Yeah, that's right Plymouth, you've got me for a few hours tomorrow. Let's see what happens, shall we?

Snow in the North Country
Happy Thursday Night, Everyone.
It's a snowy night tonight, and I don't even have to look out the window. All I have to do is look at my dogs going nuts and that's my sign. Considering it's October, it's a bit demented, in my personal opinion.
So, if you can't tell, it's my day off today. If you were looking for something entertaining to read, you may not get it. My life is boring. I mean, hell, the most exciting thing that happened at work this week is that I spilled a beer on a guy. And it was a brown ale. Yet, I still got a 25% tip. Yep, that's the size of it.
Except I did finally get my driver's license today, which took damn long enough. Yes, for those of you that didn't know, I didn't have a license before the age of 23. Why? Because I had issues people. I don't think it helped that I failed the written test the first time around and I felt incompetent for the longest time. Besides, who likes paying for gas? And to whoever lives in Germany who reads this blog: Don't think this is normal. It's not. And yeah, I know you read this...I see you... In a way. Not really. But you get the gist. I'm watching you...
However, I am so grateful to have that freedom now. I can go pick up stuff by myself. I can go visit friends. I can go on road trips...I can run away...I can plot political initiatives...I can rule the world... I can do ANYTHING. Muhahahahahaha!
But, anyhow, I digress and sadly need to go to bed as I work early tomorrow. However, next time on "Daily Travels Through Life" : Hear about how I almost failed the road test! And how my mom is still freaked out about me driving! You won't want to miss it!

Watching The CNN GOP Debate...Yep, Sums Up My Night
Evening everyone,
I'm watching the debate right now, and I've come to this conclusion: We're screwed if any of these people get into office. Could you imagine diplomatic talks with them? Or even family chats...oh geez. I mean, if there were more moderate republicans on that stage, maybe I'd have more tolerance. But if this is the best we have, none of them are getting my vote.
Anyhow, not much is new in my life, outside of the fact that I had waited on an amazing couple tonight. They were an older couple from Maine, and they were celebrating her birthday. And they were academics too, which was AMAZING. Compare that to my previous table, who happened to be occupied by angry Texans.
If you can't tell that I miss college environments, well, here's your sign. However, I'll freely admit I don't miss the GPA stuff...kinda took the fun out of learning. But, I am about to start a writing class online via UNH, so at least then I'll be entertained. You know what that means? This blog becomes my guinea pig. Be prepared everyone for what will ensue.
And I just heard Rick Perry say Nuke-u-lar...Dear God. With that, I'm gonna whip up an alcoholic beverage and call it a night. Besides, I'm just ranting here like a Zulu Shaman, or an insanely tired person...or something...yeah, we'll go with that.

Waka Waka, I'm Alive!
Hello Folks,
Sorry for the lack of communication over the past month. Life has been a bit off-kilter, as was indicated by my last post. However, life is starting to become routine, which in a way is a good and bad thing. And be warned, I'm running on adrenaline, so this post will most likely have no structure at all.
First off, instead of studying my life away, I have gotten a job as a server at the Mount Washington Hotel (Yay, I'm not a statistic!). Some of you may say "But Anastasia, waitresses don't make a lot of money! How will that work?"
Easy, I work in a restaurant that serves Filet Mignon, $35 T-Bone steak, and very expensive alcohol. Gratuities are an awesome thing at times. Follow the rich people, and you will get the money they throw away on stuff that the rest of us would not even consider. Is it easy? At times no, I will admit (think of 12 hour days and angry rich people who expect everything on a platter. Like the guy yesterday who ordered me to make a Mocha Chai Latte...You get my point).
However, I do like my co-workers, and the job does have benefits. Aw yeah, guess who's getting a 401k soon?
In regards to my personal life, it's still really screwed up. I think it would make Charlie Sheen seem normal. Except he's definitely no "Vatican Assassin". If he's one of those, then I'm a Kardashian. But I digress. Mom is still sick, however, she did get a camera implanted in her esophagus so it could take pictures. That's pretty sweet. But otherwise, she's doing alright. And as for a social life? Hahahahaa....ha. That's going to be an interesting proposition. At least I have time to watch the Republican debates. And you know what I've discovered? Herman Cain's catchphrase is 'I believe...' That's great you believe. I believe in the Easter Bunny.What do you know as fact? I know some people believe in God, but that's not why they should run for president. Just saying. Watch next time you see him on the TV. You'll see what I mean.
But, I just wanted to check in, and say hi to the world. And don't you worry...we're going from stories of helicopter parents to crazy tourists. Things will get entertaining, I promise.
