MOTHERS DAY DIDN'T TOTALLY SUCK

Well I thought it was going to suck really bad because I had to work from 10:30 to 7:00, and I was pissy and depressed and bitchy about it. I think it was showing because my manager kept asking me what was wrong, I kept saying nothing but he didn't believe me, because he kept asking. Anyway... I am at work and John and the boys show up, they were looking for some tap set to fix a motorcycle. I kept looking for them to say goodbye, but they never came back my way. So I finally go on lunch and I figure I am going to eat in the car because I am not good company to anyone, and I am eating and it is really hot so I think I am going for a drive to cool off and suddenly my phone rings and I am thinking emergency because how would J know when I am on break, but he says "where are you going?" and proceeds to tell me he was coming to get the truck so they could pick up more dirt for the backyard, so I pull off and switch the cars and I go back to work. Then finally around 4:00 I get sent home - HOORAY! - so I go home and I get in the house and they tell me close your eyes and they lead me out onto the deck and I open my eyes and there is a big beautiful gas grill! I have wanted one for like five years, I get so sick of waiting for charcoal and this one is great it has three burners and a side burner and it is stainless steel and beautiful! I guess they had to do a lot of secret stuff around the store to get it by me because I was all over the store doing different things and they couldn't talk over the radio because I had one on a lot of the time. Covert ops as the kids said. Well he totally surprised me this time! And Mother's Day didn't totally suck.
