How do you answer with a straight face?

I have been working on the front line of the hotel industry for over a year now, and I would like to impart some advice of things to not do and or say.

PART 1 - Things not to say*:

1."Are you Asian?"
"Why no,I am not."
"Oh, I thought you were because you have dimples."

2. "Is your hot tub heated?"

3. "That (smoking) room smells like smoke"

4. "Do you know what beige means?"

5. "My husband just went to the bathroom and now the toilet smells like urine."


*The following are direct quotes.

Slacker




I have been such a slacker lately.My mother and Kristi came for a visit in May and I have yet to post any pictures. Maybe someday I will. But I do have pictures of Evan from the last few days. For the past month and a half it has been pouring rain here on the coast. We finally got some sunshine if only for a few days over the holiday weekend. Kari, Brett, Evan and Brett's parents came to the hotel where I work and played in the pool. Evan is such a water baby.


Yesterday we decided to fill up Evan's little plastic pool and play at home. He was more interested in the hose than his pool.

Best Layed Plans









I had this great idea to have a picnic one day. The sun was shining so we decided to go to his Aunt pat's house to have our picnic (mostly because she has grass and we don't). I packed a beautiful lunch of PB&J's, apples and crackers. As you can tell by the lack of eating pictures no lunch was eaten by Evan that day. He wanted to help Aunt Pat with her yard work. Oh well, it was still fun.

Easter




Easter was spent in Connecticut with Grandma and Grandpa but no Auntie Katie.
