Don't panic...

 I'm on a slight hiatus. 


I'll be back this weekend with a fresh, new, post. 


I have started back to school-you know, my real job. 


And...I'm tired. 


So-give me a few more days to get my feet underneath me and I'll have something shiny for you. 

Hint: It's all about wine!


See you soon,

Sobriety is trending. Well, "California Sobriety"-that is. Stick with me and I'll enlighten you.  Feels so weird, amiright?  The incidence of mocktail bars and fresh pressed juice cocktails and drinks have become an embraceable yawn by Gen Z, and a percentage of younger millennials.  I mentioned "California Sober" in the first line, right? Well-if you aren't quite as cool, hip, and down with the young'uns as I am...let me spill the hot tea and explain.  Clock this:  (Gyatt, I'm so cool, I can hardly stand it)  I'm just like this chick-cool AF. Anywho, California sober is-still imbibing in flower cannabis, cannabis edibles, vapes, gummies, drinks etc...but not drinking any alcohol.  I like to call it- "Stoner chic"  And so, in turn, these mellow bars, or craft mocktail joints are really cashing in on this age group, specifically. But, what I have noticed-in turn, that us old fuckers-the Gen X crew are starting to get in on this action, a...

I'm sure that when your 9th grade guidance counselor asked you: "So, little Johnny/Kevin/Karen-what do you want to be when you grow up" You absolutely answered: "I'd like to work in the most dysfunctional place in the world where alcoholics and drug addicts burrow in and never leave. I'd like to clean up metric tons of vomit, and give psychotherapy and divorce advice for free, and I'd especially love to be berated by a full on jackwagon of a 'general manager' who got his associates degree in business administration from his local junior college and drives a Dodge Stratus. I really want to eat standing up, chain smoke-standing up, sleep-standing up, have sex in the bathroom stall -standing up, and cry in a walk-in cooler when I get overwhelmed. I really want to lift and pull things twice my weight and super-punch soda syrup boxes until my knuckles bleed. I would like to also-cut thousands of lemons with those same bleedy knuckles and raw palms from...

  What OWNERSHIP is: Coming in (at the butt crack of dawn, four hours prior to opening) Cleaning, prepping, book work, staffing, more cleaning, more prepping, inventory, intake, stocking, shelving, more cleaning. THEN-working the actual lunch shift. Then, restocking for the evening, cleaning, more prepping, more staffing, resetting, maybe (if you are lucky) a 15-minute standing lunch break, and change of clothes, and cigarette-usually drags come between bites of a dead sandwich that Karen demanded had too much mustard.  THEN-working the actual dinner shift. Then cleaning, cleaning, cleaning, and more cleaning. Headache sets in. Book work with a headache, money counting, checking staff for their work and cleaning, and then closing the door and turning off the neons. You pour yourself a glass of red, and sit down-finally, and you are there until the wee hours balancing, setting up cash for the next day, cleaning the bathrooms, maybe eating dinner at 1am, and crying in your wine....
