Normally my social life consists of work. Not the writing work, that’s not so socila, but the waitressing/bartending. But this week, I had two parties to go to. One was a going away party for Dani, my friend, and my boss at work. God, I’ll miss her. She’s making a big change in her life and moving back to Saskatchewan after 13 years of running this BP’s. Change is good, but she’s the reason I’ve stayed at that job as long as I did. She’s an amazing woman.
Good thing she’s into email so keeping in touch will be easy. 
The other party was last night.
The BP’s I work at is near a few big businesses, one of them being the Molson Brewery. So all theri staff are regulars of ours. Now that the brewery is closed down, we don;t se all of them as much as we used to. But one in particular, Dave, is and always will be around every day. And lastnight was his combination retirement/birthday party. I worked most of it. Serving drinks and chatting with everyone until after eleven, then I booked off early as it had slowed down, and left the new girl to bartened and close up so I could sit and have some drinks too! It was wonderful.
Niehter were big go dancing, party all night parties, but both were very special and extremely social as thery were full of people I don’t see often enough in a social setting. Both made me realize I’ve been slightly anti-social lthe past year …
Anyway, I just wanted to share since it’s the holiday weekend, and I’m working the rest of it.

Sometimes the best parties are small ones!
