They ended up being five minutes over due, but the nice librarian didn't charge me.

Booh - yah.

My drunk friend Sean didn't come to Psych today, and Dan, who normally on the other side of him, proclaimed with great glee, (after announcing Sean was not going to be arriving,) "I get the privilege of sitting next to MaryBeth?! Yay!"

It was in the same tone of voice that the Sunday morning cooks talk to me in. The tone that asks me what I'm going to give them in trade for some french toast, (they wanted a hug, they were sadly mistaken if they thought they would get one for eighty cents worth of french toast,) the tone that pleads with me not to leave, the tone that tells me they will miss me.

All this is making me quite confused. It's just me.

Another strange man incident - some guy, probably in his thirties, came up to me at work late Saturday night. He asked me to recommend a light beer. (I was working in the pub, and happened to be standing near the bar.) I told him, with great BS, that Harp and Boddington's are two great beers, and that I recommend Bass to my customers as well. (It was loud, I don't think he heard much of what I said.) He then wanted to talk more about their taste, which leaves me in a jumble since I haven't tasted any of them. So I then do what I always do, told him to go ask the bartenders, that I was positive they would be able to better serve him. He still didn't get it. He continued, telling me that I look like a girl who knows her beer, (I do?!) and, then, finally noticing my shirt (we just received new uniforms, black pants and a black Oxford with the Dubliner logo on the ... well, it's big on me and lands on my boob,) anywho... run on sentence, he finally gets it, and is like, you work here??

Then it all clicked. He was trying to hit on me. I grimaced, most likely noticeably, and took my dirty dishes and fishtailed. This guy had to be thirty something. You've got to be drunk if you think I look older then twelve. EWW.


There is something to be said for a guy who tries to pick me up - come closer again and I'll chop off ye head!
