   Excuse me, little old lady? Do you have change for a dollar?
Heh, so I did, in fact wake up in time for work Friday morning, had some coffee. And I handed in my paper! Boo yah!! Free at last!! I went into the office and my prof says "Well, is it brilliant?" I was like, "Well, you tell me Paul!" Truth is, it's not very brilliant. I think it's a big ol' pile of crap. Mediocre at best. Ah, well. It's over and that's all I care about.

So after I dropped that off, I headed over to work for the day. So there I am, muckin' around in the aisles, hanging signs and whatnot, when I overhear this older lady talking to this guy who was in one of my classes last semester. And she says to him "my goodness do you ever look like my nephew! I can't believe it!" So he, being the nice guy that he is, chats with her for a little while and finds out that her nephew passed away a couple of years ago. She's getting pretty sentimental talking about it and I'm worried she's going to start crying any second, so she asks Pete (this guy) if he will say goodbye to her on her way out of the store. And he says "well sure, that's the least I can do." So she keeps on shopping and I talk to Pete for a bit, until I get called to cash. Pete is ready to go, so he gets into my lineup.

On the next till over, Kels is busy putting through that lady's order. She packs everything up into the cart for her and the lady heads for the door. Before leaving she turns around and waves at Pete. He waves back and calls out "Bye Auntie Ruth!" because he said he would, right? And she leaves. So I start putting Pete's order through and Kels reaches over and hands me a long piece of reciept tape. "What's that?" I ask her, and she says "That lady said that her nephew would be paying for her stuff today." Pete went white as a sheet (the bill was almost two hundred friggin' dollars!), my jaw dropped and I go "Kels, he's not her nephew! Go grab her!!" and Kels goes "Dammit!" and runs out the door to catch up to her. The lady is just getting into her car as Kels gets out there...
This is getting long, I'll take a quick time out to just say...

So anyways, Kels gets to this ladys car and dives at her and grabs onto her leg, and to get her out of the car, starts pulling on it!......Just like I've been pulling yours! Heheheheh.... That was fun! It was actually a pretty uneventful day so I thought I'd make something up.

Thanks, merci, arigatou and gracias! The new yaoi support banner up top is courtesey of Raven! Isn't it hot? Yes...yes it is!
