Magical or Mundane?

Optimism makes the sun shine brighter. That's the motto I am trying to live by. With a life as mundane as mine, it is important to be optimisitc about things.
I have to go to work in a half hour, so this won't be a very long blog to begin with. I work at a little hotel, only 4 branches and all in one state. Its fairly cheap, so we get a lot of strange characters coming in. Usually gross truckers that try to hit on me and the kind, elderly couples who are trying to survive on a small, retired budget.
The other day, when I was working, an Amish family came in. I only talked to the grandfather and father, but they were fun to chat with. You could tell almost immediately that they were Amish from their looks and faces (they have distinctive faces). The father was modernized with a phone, and a credit card and a card, etc, but the grandfather wasn't. They paid $200 cash! Who carries that kind of cash with them on a daily basis anymore? Apparently the Amish do.
That same night a gay couple came in from Colorado. I didn't know they were gay right away until I asked them what room they wanted, and they said one bed was fine, and they joked about hiding being gay or not because they definetely weren't in Denver anymore (Wizard of Oz joke, anyone?) I laughed and reminded them that they WERE in a small town! (Approximately 10,000 people.)
I have to go for now, I work from 4 to midnight tonight and have to make something to take for dinner before I leave, and I still haven't put on any makeup! Yikes! Write back soon....
