Getting Hunky
Finally it seems like the worst is behind me, except for pay day of course. Today I got up early but felt fine, minor challenges but compared to the last two weeks nothing too bad. Then I finally found the time to walk over to Hunky Bill’s and get my Ukrainian Breakfast. I was pleased to discover they hadn’t raised their prices this year - because after the last two weeks I would’ve paid $20 for some Hunky Bill’s.
They weren’t completely set up but thankfully they had everything they needed to fill my order. Hunky was in rare form, singing and dancing along to the concert stage music and mocking Tim Horton’s. Service was prompt and funny.
The fair has begun.
Now I wait for the call. The opening day call when some area is overwhelmed and I’m sent in as reinforcements. Often an area I’ve never worked in before - although every year the list of places I haven’t worked gets a little shorter.
The call could send me somewhere difficult with lots of hard work but I don’t mind that much because it’s just nice not to have the ultimate responsibility for a change. Then, with a little luck, things slow down to a decent pace tomorrow and I’m really able to catch my breath…and begin planning for the next phase, and the next year.
