Lists

Lists, just to write them:

Food
Food I buy, because it doesn't come with the employee meal, or I get hungry after 4:30 pm and want a snack:

• Peanut Butter, Honey, and good bread
• Yogurt!
• an Avocado or two
• crackers and frosting
• candy bars :)

WORK

Things I say for check ins:

• Here is a room charge card if you'd like to charge things to the room
• Please put your car make/model, license plate number, and sign at the bottom
• Do you have your credit card that you made the reservation with? Would you like incidentals charged to this card?
• We have some coupons for some of the activities in the park: Buffalo Jeep Safari ride, horse riding, or boat rentals which we have here at Sylvan Lake
• The dining room and the store are open from 7 am until 9 pm
• You get to the lake by driving back out to the main road, taking two lefts, and no, you can't see the lake from here- too many trees!
• Enjoy your stay :D

Things I wish I could say, after they are checked in:

• If you have complaints, please just leave instead of yelling at me!
• Who raised you to act like that?
• No, I haven't been to every restaurant within 100 miles- I'm not as rich as you :)
• Are you kidding me? You're really complaining about that room?
• This is the wilderness, there are bugs.

Things I do say:

• Yes, this area is beautiful, and yes, it's nice to work here.
• I'm from Utah, have you heard of Cedar City?
• thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed your stay, that the room was great, and the service wonderful.
• The bathrooms are right behind you- we try to hide them.
• Yes, we have bedding and housekeepers!

RELATIONSHIPS

Why a guy should date me:

• I'm fun-
• I like to laugh and make others laugh
• I'm righteous (according to Tyler from the branch, lol)
• I like to do little things like leave notes or surprises around
• My idea of the perfect date is April 25 because it's not too hot and not too cold.
• I like simple things, and don't need a lot to make me happy.

Why it might not be so fun to date me:

• I don't know how to cook very well- blame my (past) feminist ideals, or laziness.
• Emotional baggage.
• I tend to fight back, and don't mind bring up touchy topics.
• I write on a blog for the world (or at least the three readers that I have) to read!

LIFE

Reasons why I have moved a lot:

• I like variety
• I choose jobs that nobody would want to do for a long time, so I need a break by trying something new.
• You can reinvent yourself every time you move- though I'm pretty sure I've come to the point that I'm pretty much the same no matter where I go.
• I like staying in a place long enough to find the less touristy spots- this sometimes takes awhile.
• I've needed a break from school- who wants to go all in a row??
