What a day! I will tell stories of my day in italics, and then when the font goes back to normal it’s time for the show.
Somedays at my diner are uneventful, these go on for long stretches of time. Other days, like today are different. Everything started normal, got to work at 4:30 AM, made three dozen cookies, cooked a few meals and talked to the regulars. My niece comes in to start her shift at 7 AM. A little after that we had a lady come in who was obviously on meth. She was skinny, ordered one pancake and then just kept to herself while her eyes darted around the move and her hands fidgeted non-stop.
