So... How'd Your Day Go?

Just broke my broom beating the snot out of one of the area rugs we have strung across the clothes line...8-[

Edit: Got a new broom and have started work on the next segment of Glass Girl.

Day off. Went to the used bookstore, had friends over for the day. Played Cards Against Humanity and had chicken and biscuits for supper. Overall, awesome.

Just got back from seeing Jurassic World in 3d Imax. Lots of people get eaten. It's worth seeing for that if nothing else.

Yesterday was pretty special day for me as I gave blood for the first time http://www.forum.hr/images/smilies/cheer.gif We don't get paid, instead we get a drink (usually juice or something similar), a coupon for the near restaurant (as they were on the Court yesterday, I ate there), and two days off which you can use whenever you want, so I'm just chilling at home. I felt really energized after everything was over, and can't wait for the next time :grin:

Good for you!!!! Something I've always done regularly. You're doing a good deed and they have Little Debbie! One warning-if you donate in the summer months...lots of hydration before and after. The only time I all but passed out was a humid day and not enough liquid before I donated. Otherwise never a problem.

Today was hiding from the heat and mounds of laundry to sort. Tomorrow I have to start a determined effort to find another job or two. Bastards have me down to twenty hours next week...the taxes don't understand hour cutbacks

Oh, don't know if I mentioned it on this site...I'm ready to get on the roof with a megaphone and announce to the world "I'm going to be a Grandma!". Changes your whole perspective...yes I have more on my plate that I can possibly manage, over thinking, depression and panic but...
My eldest boy is making me a Grandma and everything else kind of fades back there.

Finally got around to seeing Jurassic World. Was it constructive, no. Was it instructive, again, no. Did I laugh, yes. Hokey awesomeness is occasionally just the sort of pick me up one needs.

Today I somehow got the song, "Total Eclipse of the Heart" stuck in my head.

After spending an hour driving, and singing a mashup of it, the profanity-laden wedding Singer version, and parts of the descriptive video parody on youtube, I pulled in to a gas station and it was playing over the loud speaker.
I think it's time I get myself a 900 number and open a psychic hotline.

Feel free to pm me for lotto numbers.

We had our first day of inventory today. Hallmark decided to outsource and hire a company to audit our product for us and then a select few of us double counted the important stuff afterwards. It was long. My day started at 5:30am. I felt good overall. What's even better is that I didn't realize I had off tomorrow which is awesome. It's nice to get that little surprise. It's the one time that reading the schedules wrong has been to my benefit.

I ate "chili con queso" flavored pringles today, and bought a white chocolate Milka bar. Yum.

Think today was a special form of punishment. slated to work 7am to 11am, sucky in itself. Then instead of saying Big Corporate is coming to visit they were just insisting on everything being watered
It is 7am
We are on flood watch after 6pm tonight
It is the hottest most humid day of the week today
I didn't bring my sunscreen
Not playing the age card, b
but there a bunch of young energetic droogs who could have been scheduled to hump the hoses
Then insult to injury, a customer asked for gallon oil containers in the overhead, I can climb up there no problem
But bull moose store manager and assistant manager are standing there...and here I am moving this gigantic ladder, can't they become human enough to offer even a teeny bit of help? The customers will help for pitty's sake...and all the bastards can do is order me to do the watering after I get the oil down. Me want a "real" job, and I will not be a douchebag to underlings.

Well, you could have been the customer service agent on the other end of my wrath when I explained their incompetence to them (I'm surprised the phone lines didn't melt). Then she complained about my language - honestly, that is not job for shrinking violets. I shouldn't have lost me temper, but sometimes...

Anyway, hope you have a better day.

I did finally get a slight poke in there. I keep my liquid refreshment behind the gas cans in the store. Outside where I was working and it would have been boiling. 86 outside and there they are waiting for me, why am I inside? " Because if I don't have a drink they'll find my body out there and I won't get the watering done right?"
