“I'm not a morning person.
After taking dangerous levels of over the counter meds to numb my aches & pains enough that I can get to sleep, then the 3 to 4 wake up bathroom visits through the night, and wrestling with my demons in the dream realm. it is all I can do to get up and around in the morning. Even after I have put my game face on and headed out the door, I am better left to myself, the least amount of human interaction the better for everyone's safety.
That is until I get to my favorite morning cafe for breakfast. The girls at Eggbert's here in Claremore are wonderful. They have become more than my morning routine, they have become more than friends, some are closer to family than my blood family.
It doesn't matter how grumpy I am when I walk in, I always have a smile on as I leave. Their attitude towards the customers is more of an atmosphere than an attitude and it can only be described as an atmosphere of positive energy, of shared love, and shared success. Don't get me wrong they are human and as such there are the occasional ruffled feathers and hurt feelings, but it only takes them a few minutes, a quick cigarette or breath of fresh air out back, and venting to one of the others and they're back to their Sunny self.
I don't know where I'd be mentally or emotionally through the day if I didn't start it out by absorbing some of their positive energy first thing in the morning.
So to the girls at Bert's. I just wanted y'all to know that I love each and everyone of you. You make it much easier for this grumpy old fat man to continue with his day when all he really wants to do is nothing and he wants to do that nothing with no one.
You give me a reason to act like a human for one more day, each and every day.
Oh I almost forgot; the food is mighty tasty. I've tried everything in the menu, there is nothing that I don't like.“
