Goodcents Anyone??

One of my most exciting moments in Dallas was when a Goodcents opened up. I mean...who doesn't love Goodcents? As to be expected, we Kansas folk here in Dallas frequent the restaurant often. Well, I'm starting to think a little too often.

Case #1: Last week I stayed outside on the patio to save our table while Ashley and Erica went in and got my sandwich. Ashley ordered my sandwich (wheat bread, turkey and Swiss-that's it) and one of the owners said, "Heather is here?"

Case #2: See for yourself...



(Here is the link if picture is too small)

Sidenotes:

1. When you spell check your blog post, the recommendation for Goodcents is "God send"..no surprise there.

2. Ashley and I think we should be grandfathered in at the $3 Turkey price.


LBH (Let's be honest)...I'm probably going to go for lunch today.

Boring blog post title right? Well mark the date and time because you will NEVER hear any of the words from the next sentence come out of my mouth, EVER.

I kind of have to give props to KState.

Ahhh! That was awful to type, it felt like my hands turned to stone. Every finger was so heavy to even move to the next computer key during that sentence. Blech.

On with the explanation...

One of my best friends from high school went to KState. You may have heard of her, her name is Vanessa Calcara. As much as I judged her, I always had a grand time when I went to KState, even if I was tearing apart a fellow pi phi's room. Then I moved to Dallas and didn't know anyone, Vanessa put me in touch with one of her pi phi friends. You may know her too...Erica Snyder. I have now been living with Erica for almost 2 years and she has become one of my best friends. Now the ho is getting married and I am forced to move out, but who am I moving in with...a KStater. Ashley Payson. And...all my friends down here went to KState. It's ridiculous.

Another realization came when I was at the Bruns/Carter wedding 2 weekends ago. Brittany and I became friends because of course she is a KState pi phi. I had a great time with the KStaters at that wedding. Same thing happened at the Otto/Griffin wedding last year. And I generally enjoy all the KStaters that I meet. I have many other KStater friends...those are just a few examples...

So props to KState, you produce some pretty cool people, occasionally. Or is this just another testament to how awesome I am to win the hearts of all these K-Staters. I will go with the later.

And don't misunderstand this post. I still LOVE KU and would never go to KState. Just giving props where props are do.

So mark the time and date, because you will never hear those words again.

"s#!t"

Maybe I cuss too much. I don't know. But I like cuss words because they are so expressive. 1 of the reasons I like the sports industry is that everyone cusses. Its great.

Well today I found out its not so great (sometimes).

I tend to get a little tongue tied sometimes. It usually takes me a couple of times to record my voicemail greeting at work. Monday I rerecorded my greeting after being out of the office all weekend. I messed up the first time so hit stop and then rerecorded again. Well today I received the following email from a client...

"Heather - I'm trying to purchase the tickets, but it's not letting me.

Also, on a personal note, you might want to change your voicemail, because we can hear you say "s#!t" I guess because you messed up the first voicemail.......heehee. I'm sorry, but I wasn't sure if anyone else had mentioned this to you, so I thought I would. :)"

No Coraina, I had not heard that from anyone and it's been 4 days. Also, I get about 30 calls a day at least. No one told me.

Needless to say, I fixed it. But, will probably not stop cussing. F*#! that.
