:: It's over already? ::
Two more days and it's going to be 2007. Where did this year go? I can't believe it went by this fast. I can't believe I've been a waiter this long already. (Neither can my parents but they're more in denial than anything.) I've spent the last week trying to get myself into the holiday spirit but it's been difficult. Not that I've been a crotchety or sullen or anything, but for whatever reason, the last week has felt like any other week.

Maybe it's because I haven't had to buy any gifts for anyone this year. I've also worked through the holidays and for whatever reason, the locals seem to be a foul mood. Maybe it's the stress of shopping, travel plans, etc. etc. but people have been coming in to our restaurant looking frazzled. On the other hand, all the tourists are all nice and chipper since they're not shivering in the winter temperatures of wherever they're from. (Only in Miami can you walk down a street like Lincoln Road or Ocean Drive and see outdoor restaurant seating with umbrellas that have a cooling mist piped through them in the middle of December. I've played tennis the last two Saturday mornings and came home with sock tanlines.)

Whatever. I'm not complaining. But this year went by too fast.
