Sometimes, life got to be hectic. Brian usually enjoyed those times while they lasted, although it was nice to take a break after a week of such things. With the Red Willow barn severely understaffed, save for the students, and White Oak not much better, things were indeed busy. But the students, they were a saving grace. When he'd worked at the stallion barn, he'd never known just how easy they could make life for him. Now, though? He could tell them to turn out horses and focus on the other things that piled up, the temporary duties that he'd picked up in addition to his work at White Oak barn.
But now, he had wanted to relax. Thinking of just how many things were going undone while he lingered did not help. As the waitress approached him, he smiled up at her, "A coke, cheeseburger, and fries, please." Simple, yes, but that was fine. The food here tasted about as good as one would expect at such a diner, which was all that he needed. Just something different from the cafeteria food, and a place to hide, where he couldn't get more added to his workload. As the girl brought him his glass, he smiled, then turned to the carbonated soda, taking a couple of swallows of the oversweet drink.
