Go figure

Thursday was about the best day we've ever had at Edgar's. Huge lunch crowd, I visit every table. Everyone was happy, then the afternoon was fairly brisk, as afternoons go. Huge after work crowd at the bar. Then a good dinner crowd. So I figure. Great!! Good weather, good sales, tomorrow's Friday, nice weather expected. So Friday comes around. 3 tables at lunch. Seriously. Not a soul, except for Greg, an across-the-street regular, who came in for dinner. NO ONE. I can't take that. I was a miserable ball of anxiety. Just standing there with nothing to do. I left at 5:58. There was no one in the restaurant.

At 6:45 michael the manger calls me at home (this never happens), my sister is there. I'd completely forgotten. I felt so ashamed and miserable. I tell myself it will be OK but am racked with doubt and misery. 

I came in this morning to do my taxes, well, organize them so someone else can do them. I look at the Micros system for the total from yesterday, it was whopping!!! They had a huge dinner hour that started at 7 and ended at 10.
