posting... alright, here it goes ^^"
hey guys!
hope you are all doing well and had an amazing weekend ^^
I don't have a lot to say today, but that's alright, last week's monster made up for that in advance ^^
my weekend was alright. work was exhausting, but at least I managed to steer clear of the most annoying customers. my boss however was having an increasingly hard time.. she's got a really bad cold and should be in bed.. I think I've caught her cold too, so I'm trying to take things a bit easier this week.
on friday though, we were missing 50 bucks out of the register.. now that pisses me off, cause I'm pretty sure I didn't do anything wrong.. but still, you start to doubt yourself.. luckily on saturday, when it had been pretty darn busy and I was working the register all day, there wasn't anything missing, which made me feel a lot better again ^^
just for the record, two other girls had worked the register too on friday, so it might as well've been their fault, we just don't know ^^"
despite some backlashes and a lot of complaining customers, we are getting a pretty good turnover. in fact, it seems like we're giving away the shoes for free and that everyone in and around my town hasn't been able to buy any shoes for years >_< it's been busy EVERY DAY.. right now, we're just preparing for a very slow time when everything calmes down and the people have enough shoes..
also, just for the record, I am not a shoe sales person like in America and on tv.. what I do is look up the right size for people (on the boxes, cause apparently, people forget how to do anything themselves once they walk in), show them where to find mirrors, show them where to find certain shoes from the commercials and last, but not least, help parents with little kiddies find the right shoes for their offspring.
so no measuring old people's feet and having to fit the shoes on them. they can all do that themselves, thank goodness ^^
other than work, I also had a weekend ^^
my boss dropped me off right in front of Silver's house ^^ at first I was nervous about driving along with her, but everything went alright and we just chatted and laughed and talked about things in the store and what we might expect in the near future ^^
so anyway.. I got at Silver's, showered, we went to get food from good ol' MaccyD's. then we played some We <3 Katamari and then we went to the birthday party of a friend of Silver's ^^
the party was fun, it was outside around this big, warm fire ^^ I ended up drinking too much after all, though I was a nice little girl and only drank beer ^^ 'twas still too much though..
had fun talking with several people ^^ especially with the birthday boy, since he has an aquarium full of.. *dun dun dunnnn* (Magnus, you're going to love this!) PIRANHAS!!! they were soooooo cool ^^ so was the fishtank by the way, it was HUGE ^^ *secretly jealous*
either way, we both had fun and were the last ones leaving the party.. we basically got kicked out cause the host wanted to get some sleep ^^'
sunday was alright. if you don't count the ginormous hangover I had (somehow, I only get them from beer.. oh and too much tequila, but that's a different story ^^") and the fact that I'm getting sick..
we played more Katamari and then headed over to my house. then it was time to eat (we spent most of the morning sleeping and just being in bed ^^") and after that, we watched tv. I taunted Silver with my Hellsing DVD box for a while, since he really wants it hehe but I'm the one who bought it so, muahahahah!
I get to borrow Silver's PS2 for a while \^_^/ YAY!!!! I also borrowed four games, or else it wouldn't be of much use.. I got We <3 Katamari, Red Ninja, Tenchu and Dynasty Warriors ^^ so I'll be able to get some relaxing in this week hehe ^^
we played more Katamari and then Silver had to head home, since I was feeling more and more crappy..
when he left, I got online for a bit to wish Matty good luck, he's got a job interview today *crosses fingers* and before I knew it, it was past twelve already.. I don't know what happened, but time just flew past and I had to get some sleep! I had taken two sleeping pills, so the sleeping part went well ^^ in fact, I'm going to take another nap after this ^^
let's see.. nothing much more to say.. except maybe for the fact that I've suddenly got a huge amount of money on my account, that I can't really place.. I tried to calculate my pay for last month (I get paid a month later, due to provision calculations) and it was less than what had been added.. but it couldn't have had my government-scholarship money either, cause that would've been way less than usual.. *shrugs* guess I'll have to wait and see when my receipt thingy comes in next week ^^"
in the meantime: I'm rich, YAY!
well, this is turning out long after all, so I'll end this with your postly LOLcat. it's in reply to JD-kun's comment, of which I'm still not sure whether to be offended by it..
and I'll throw in another one, just for the heck of it ^^
have a great day and I'll see y'all later *hugs for everyone*
Much Clown Love, I'm outti.
