Clicks Tsotha's time card, goes back in the store room

I think I just became staff.

lol - hang around long enough, you become part of the furniture! still, Tess has a way with a can of polish and a soft cloth that brings a smile to many a patron's face. Or so i hear

 

[Remec]

ooh, that looks nice. kicking back after a long day, mr R?

More like taking a bit of a break before heading out for the evening. Went to a movie, ferried my stepson to and from his clinical studies, and grabbed the girl we babysit off her schoolbus (Sat school to fill in unscheduled snowdays)...seems like it's been a busier Sat than usual for some reason, but not really a long day, per se

Feels longer as I work on these last daily poems, though

looks like a lot of to-ing and fro-ing. what movie did you go see? did the bus driver object to your child-snatching tendencies? you deserve that drink

*quirks eyebrow* Intriguing.

well it was something about polish . . . french polishing, i think. And then there's the feather duster.......

we don't talk about that too often. it tends to create queues.

Rowan and two of the kids wanted to check out "Divergent" since they had all read the series. I found it to be a passable, formulaic but not in a bad way, slightly dystopian adventure/coming of age movie. But it has made me want to check out the books.

Have to finish this Mercedes Lackey novel I'm reading first, though.

*quirks eyebrow* Intriguing.

Indeed. Just what I was thinking

Hey now...I haven't spruced up my mind enough for visitors. Or is that part of the local gestalt at work?

Oh, I can see why. And I'm never here when she's on duty. *sigh*

You mean there is wood, and wood?

*ponders the possible meanings of "top up". Proceeds to refill butters' glass*

Oui, mademoiselle.

Ha ha ha

 

[Tsotha]

Ha ha ha

Well, it made me think of "bottoms up!", but then the top is already up; it seems a bit counterproductive to try to drink that way, so...

 

[butters]

Oh, I can see why. And I'm never here when she's on duty. *sigh*

she's an elusive lady *nods*

it means keep doing just what you're doing - refill

merci beaucoup, monsieur.

Ah, French, I know a little, put your coffee cup down butters
Bone de jour, ya'll

thankyou for the warning, mister

what's a dog without a bone or a puss without a purr, eh?

 

[butters]

my french is strictly limited.

i could use a little one to one language coaching

changing the subject, there's a film on tonight with Tilda Swinton as the mother of a disturbed child in We need to talk about Kevin. Looks really good and she's one of my favourite actresses.

 

[Tsotha]

you've done this before

*sips*

Not really, but I've watched others doing it a lot.

you're a natural
all bartenders have a story, though they rarely get to voice them being so busy allowing others to ramble on... what's yours, T?

*observes, shuts up*

*shrugs, keeps organizing*

I'm not a fully fledged bartender, just the help while Harry is out and about. Too soon to have a flashy 'tender story, I think, and the others... Too blue. What about you, my faithful patron? Got a story?
