1/3/10 NMarket, Matt, and Dinner w Bobby and Em

I got my whole a.m. rountine done. I wasn't happy at the scale. After meeting my first goal just before New Years Eve, the impskies won and jumped off the diving board of eating--pizza, chocolate. I'm proud that I got on the scale this a.m. I knew I wouldn't be happy, but ok, I did it and there was no doubt who would be in charge today.

I was happy to get to NMarket. I knew that the weather would keep some people away. I would stay home myself. But I came in the door ready to play. One of my old yoga students, Mary, from St L's came in. She had a lot of problems. One was similar leg cramps to those Luke had. I put her on some of the nutrients that he takes. She didn't know that Luke and I left St L's. She was surprised to hear it, but happy for us that we were going in a direction that was better for us.

Matt and I also had some very, very strange customers. One woman came in for hair nutrients. And yes, her hair was stringy. She has been sick, but she's strange. Very. Matt helped her. She wasted all his time and then even gave back the expensive samples he gave her. She ran for it, taking her stringy hair with her.

The other super strange thing that happened was a customer that barely speaks. He comes in most every Sunday. Today he stopped between Matt and my register. He began a long monologue. We did not know what he was trying to bring out. He asked us if we remembered what he wore last Sunday or the kind of bag we gave him. Honestly, I was a little scared and began to pray. In the end, all this man wanted was to exchange his Vit B -1 with another vit B that was only 5 cents more expensive. Also, he did not have his vit B-1 in his car as he thought, so he had to drive home (not close by) to get it.

At the end of the day, Matt and I made a little over $1,000, which for this weather rocked.

Luke and I met Em, Bobby and Evan for dinner at Puccinis. I did very well. I got herbal tea, followed by a chicken salad and a child's portion of pasta under tomato sauce. We had fun as always. It was fun to hear about the trip to California. They saw a lot of interesting sights and ate in the same restaurant as two stars (not big ones and I've already forgotten both their names.) After dinner, Bobby and Evan went home. Em stayed for a few more minutes and I told her the joke that Matt shared with me. It's a very, very funny joke about the Pope and a Rabbi. Before I started Em and Luke were joking that I'd forget the punch line. I JUST hear this joke and I practiced in the car. I was sure I'd remember it. What do you think. Just when I was going along great--I forgot the punch line. Em started to laugh. But I got back on the horse, and managed to tell it all. Luke and Em laughed so I guess I did a good job.
