freedom trail.

story time.

okay..so i work in the financial district, which also happens to be a huge tourist area, considering there are lots of history landmarks all throughout this area. so the restaurant i work at is in the old city hall building, which happens to be right smack dab in the middle of the freedom trail (it's this guided tour to all of the major history landmarks in boston...super cheesy. there is someone dressed like a colonial person from the 1800s who is the tour guide and they all talk really loud and obnoxious). anyways, the restaurant decided to open the patio yesterday and today and i was the lucky chosen hostess who got to work outside. (which basically meant i was a lawn ornament)

what i have experienced upon being a patio hostess:

1. an amish man asking me if the restaurant i worked in was the place where the declaration of independence was signed......how do i answer that with a straight face??

2. a deaf homeless man who pretended to shoot me with an umbrella and walked all throughout the patio area....i was too afraid to tell him to leave. it's not like he could hear me anyways..

3. a kid on the freedom trail tour stopped in front of the restaurant to take a picture and a pigeon crapped on his head.

priceless.

i am in need of a new bible. oswald is great but only for so long...

13 dayssss till i get to eat some chicken minis and REAL sweet tea!!

ahhhhh...i may start packing tonight. and i hate packing. that's how excited i am :)
