Sometimes

I've been getting so drained at work lately... I keep anticipating the time when it will all just go away, and yet it doesn't...

My Lockport store is currently the #1 Wireless zone store for April (out of several hundred), and last month we were#2. It has been SO BUSY!

Which of course is good for profits, but I'm finding it to be a hard time juggling sales, and trying to keep these guys going long enough to keep their other tasks up. I walked into the store Monday morning and it was a DISASTER.

I placed a $35,000 order because we were so very low/sold out of stuff. Seriously - that is a big order.....

I love working in Lockport because it makes my check much more bearable, but holy hell does it kick my ass.

Today I'll be in Springville, which has still been a profitable store, but less chaos. A little relaxation, I guess. Except the admin lady called in, so I get to do her job too. BAh.... AND as a result, I don't get to go to the dinner tonight. BALLS!

Its so hard leading these kids into battle....

oh... haha on another note, (e:lauren) got a ticket yesterday! haha

I intend on doing this tomorrow. But I don't have any bonsai pottery. Nor do I have gloves. Which could suck as my hands already have red prickles on them.

AH.

A couplea thingies

Firstly, I was unable to get my shift switched at work so I can't make it to Tuesday. Sorry folks.

Today is my only day off this week. I'll end at probably around 50 hours and I can't wait to see that delicious paycheck. Overtime AND commission. Peaches.

Ive been writing a story in my head in the hour and a half a day I spend commuting to/from work. Its super complicated. And rather sci-fi. Kind of a Harry Potter meets Journey to the center of the Earth.

Here is just a snippet of the craziness I have developed. A Bonsai Bridge. Yes, 6 trees meticulously grown and groomed over thousands of years to become a sort of bridge over a waterway.

Yup. When I say it outloud it sounds reaaaaallly nuts. :)

vadas

Every time I start to write a post, I realize two things.

1. I really have nothing exciting to share.

2. Anything that I could share would involve a lot of back explaining to fill in all the gaps that have occurred because I have not been sharing. I get overwhelmed and sign back out.

Thus I continue to stalk.

felly who?

I have actually logged on instead of stalking anonymously!! yes indeed!

I did so for two reasons.

  1. 1. (e:matthew) and all of (e:pmt) - I am sorry I missed your party. Happy belated birthday matthew, and I hope the party was kicking. I was lame, forgot about it until I was settled in. Lameass.

  1. 2. I am interested in this Price Rite. I mean... come on its a block away! How could I not? Perfection! Except for one thing...

Traffic. The grudge I have right now for the Price Rite traffic is, at the moment, sitting next to the traffic grudge I have against Pano's. I'm sure once the rib sale finishes, I'll be just fine.

I would tell you more about my life, but there doesn't really appear to be much else going on. Seriously lame, I know. Its all good.

double vision

i'm in recovery from an extremely long and damaging vacation.

Lake George was great, New Years was great, and the Bandits game was great.

We even had the Bandettes in our suite with us!

But after 5 nights of drinking and shenanigans, I'm ready for the monotony of daily life.

I am sorry I missed the Estrip New years party though - it looked like great fun.

Oh and I watched Dark Knight last night. Creepy.

vacation from vacation

I'm tired. As excited as I am for heading out for my annual trip to Lake George for New Years, I'm tired. And I can't wait till next sunday, my next FULL day off with really nothing to do but recover.

And since that will be the day after the bandits game, I'm intending on being hungover then as well.

(E:Janelle) or (E:drew) - Let me know when we can drop off the key. (e:lauren) will be out running errands and should be able to drop off the key, if need be. But she doesn't remember where you live either (she was absolutely no help to me in finding your place) so maybe she will go door to door!

This list errand list is too long to write.
