rockin' pneumonia
 
So... today was pretty damn lame.

There was shelving, a lot of it. Three H-carts and three v-carts. And a desk full of go-backs. I had to cover customer service most of the day, we had two people who were pretty new at it, so I was helping them AND helping my customers. And I couldn't find five books in a row, IN A ROW. And my lunch was screwed up (get in at seven take lunch at 1pm... would be in violation of federal law). And Marcella quit, so I ended up "picking up" one of her shifts next week (goodbye day off!). And the department was a mess, and I got two very pissed off customers. And we lost about 1/5 of our doctor seuss because we were supposed to get a display 16 days ago (or two months ago if you want to go on -original- plans) and gained thirty squirty million Katie Kazoo Switcheroos! And that section has already been PDT'd this month, so it will REMAIN impacted until the next months due outs.

And outside of work, Frank won't be coming down... anytime soon. So, his birthday gift will have to wait. It's really dissapointing, I haven't seen him since -my- birthday (and he has my west wings!).



I went home and made myself a drink (a stiff one), then took a nap.


GOOD THINGS THAT HAPPENED TODAY: I had lunch with James, and that was nice (we had an author signing so our breaktable was half as big as it used to be. It meant that I was essentially knees to knees with him, so talking was pretty easy). AND (this is the best news) Russ came in! Russ came into the store! And hugged me (a couple times. Sometimes I wonder since he's like six years older if he views me like a little kid... yeah, I think he does, oh well. Better he see me that way than as a lady who wishes very sincerely he were -not- married). Oh, his wife came in, too, I helped her find some books. You know, internet, if you want me to be interested in you, I would suggest becoming an unavailable geek, that really seems to -do- it for me.

I have dance music, and yes some of it is terrible (as in, one doesn't like to admit to anyone that you have Justin Timberlake's single... something I totally didn't type out, and you didn't read, because I would never do something like that. RIGHT?!), but it gets me moving and makes me happy. I stand upon my little footstool (so that I don't injure my arms, it's really sad what you can get used to for free internet), and dance and dance. I might be going dancing next saturday!

Also, That's the way I like it, is really really really cute.

Lastly, I'm sleeping in! I have an evening shift tomorrow!

I'm not telling you... but I'm not -not- telling you?

I don't think there is much to -understand- about that song, I just dance to it... or I would, if I had it.

Also on the list of dance music, some early 2000s Madonna, Will Smith, Rihanna, and a lot of techno... a lot a lot of techno.

About Me
I really like to read, overanalyze things, and dance, maybe not in that order. Oh, I also believe in being intellectual and silly.
