Personal



So I have a job now. I'm working the front desk of a hotel, checking people in and out, making reservations, etc. Eventually I'll be doing half night shifts and half day shifts, but for now, it's all during the day while I get comfortable with the system.

Which isn't taking long - I'm still confused by the differences in the debit or credit process, but I've been able to handle most everything else. There's a lot of downtime on this job as well - you help people as they come in, so there's really no busy work. Yesterday, I think about six people checked in during the eight hours I was there. I'm thinking about starting a blog - Doodles from the Night Desk :XD:

The hotel is on hospital property (though not actually affiliated with the hospital), so we get a lot of guests who are there for surgery or treatment, or family members who want to stay nearby. The people working the desk know all the regulars, which is kinda neat.

Thursday was my day off and I used it to take Russ to Magic Springs for the first time. I don't think he'd ever been to a water park before, at least, not to my knowledge. Completely wore me and his mom out :lol:

Other than that, not a terribly eventful week.

<da:thumb id="536669918"/> On KyotoI fell in love in Kyoto city. It was a city beautiful even in the rain,
especially radiant in the sun; all temples, shrines, pagodas. I wandered
from neon arcades to wooden halls with one thousand and one
golden buddhas, to mountains and monkeys and back
again. There were handsome varnished wooden walkways,
winking red lanterns, enchanting golden pavilions and yet
I can only remember him. In a city of cultivated charm, of
practised refined beauty, I can only remember his face.
I fell in love in Kyoto with a boy who taught me magic tricks
at midnight, who held me like a promise, who’s blue eyes
glittered like his native seas and I swear his smile was
stellar. The bonsai twisted in the yards, the monks
hummed in the courtyards and we kissed in a
dark room. We could have been in France or
America or the Marianas Trench and it would
have been the same; two arrows flying,
two archers intertwining their bows,
two hearts caught in the middle of
Kyoto.
