Have I Finally Seen It All?
Cross-dressed to kill.
I kind of figured this is where he was heading. Good luck, Devon. I hope you continue to get well. Your "appetite" will return, just in another form. You'll see it when it's time.
On an unrelated note - I finished training at my new job. I am far from done learning, though. They seem to need us now (there's another manager that started the week before me) so what we've managed to learn seems to be good enough. In my case that's true. The rest I can learn as I go. Last night, we had a sold out show in the main club. That's 1,000 people. Sort of without my knowledge they made me the main manager over the guy that's been there a month longer. About two hours into the night the club was full, the bar was packed and the bartenders were at full tilt. Computer paper and dollar bills were everywhere. The waiters were selling as many drinks as they could. The bass was vibrating the stacks of plastic cups in the service station. The VIP seating was done, most of the guests from the various band lists, record industry tables and friends of The House were in attendance. I resolved a serious seating problem for some people who believed themselves to be important. As I stood next to the bar gulping a cup of ice water I became aware that my heart was beating faster and my brain was firing on all cylinders. I was in the moment and two steps ahead at the same time. It was then that it occurred to me that "Yeah, this is what I do". I was totally comfortable and in my element. I run big events. It's what I'm good at. I'm good. I grooved to the music for a second and feasted on the collective energy. Then I got back to work.
