Wow I've missed 30 pages since I've last been in here...
LOL, yeah, these pages go quick sometimes.
So I tried to go to work but after I cried in frustration over the discomfort I got sent home.
Some idiot bumped into me on the way home. Lucky my bumper on the car was so iced up they did no damage as they just hit the ice.
*phew*
Can this week be over with.
Awwwwwwww
. Sorry about that! Yay for no damage, at least, though (LOL at the thought of the ice being what saved you. How funny).
And a
to all who aren't feeling well. Being sick at Christmastime
. I hope you all get well enough to enjoy the holiday (well, and to be well, period)!
GG, good luck with the calculus exam. I still maintain that a teacher holding an exam on Christmas Eve is evil, Scrooge-like behavior of the highest order. But yeah, hope all goes well with it, and hope all went okay with your other exams. I'm sure you'll do just fine. We're all rooting for ya.
Thora, yay, glad the weather's getting better. Shame your vacation's growing shorter, but we look forward to all the details you didn't get to share when you get home. And hope everyone else who is battling chaotic weather is doing all right. I've heard about the snow in Europe, sounds nuts (and my sympathies to those in California getting hit with the heavy rain, too. I saw some footage of that on the Weather Channel today, ye gods...
).
Small snowstorm expected here tomorrow, so woo.
VP, wow, your situation with this Bob sounds remarkably similar to a situation a friend of mine's been going through the last couple of years with a guy (I've been her sounding board about it for, oh, the entire time I've been back here). And you've both ended things with the guys, too, which I agree with the others on. Relationships/friendships aren't perfect, no, but they should never stress one out as much as yours seems to have, so I'm glad that you've lifted that weight off your shoulders
.
Angela that customer sounds infuriating. Got to love it when they change their minds like that, then pretend nothing had happened.
LOL, no kidding (and thanks, VP, for your comment as well!). Like I said, it was a "she said, she said" situation, but I'm more inclined to believe my manager, because I just can't see her saying, "Oh, yeah, go ahead and sell it" knowing full well it was set aside for someone else. It sounds like the lady's been a hassle to all who've dealt with her, so...yeah.
But none of that matters to me anymore, 'cause I DON'T HAVE TO WORK FOR THE NEXT THREE DAYS! *Collapses in happy heap* Work was INSANE this evening, soooooooo many customers. My mouth was so dry by the time I left-saying the same five sentences over and over to each new customer ("Is this all for you? Did you find everything okay? Can I help you find something? Do you want a sack for that? May I see your ID?") will do that to you. And my feet hurt. But now I can chill.
(And yet on Friday, when I get paid, I'm going to go out and get the last couple Christmas gifts I've yet to pick up
. Explain
that insanity)
Also, my family officially has a car again, woohoo! A friend of my sister's got a new car and didn't need this one anymore, so they gave it to us. Which will be nice, save my family a hell of a lot of money that we've been using for cabs for the last few months when needing to get somewhere. So yay.
The hand sanitizer reminds me of Craig Ferguson, 'cause he has that on his desk and has used it a couple times on his show with a guest, hehe. I'm watching him right now-I seriously think he is certifiably insane, I really do. But in the best way possible.
All right. And now my long, rambling post comes to an end, LOL.
