I was supposed to work from 7-2:30 today...but no truck came in to B&N so....I don't have to work today!  GO ME!  I slept in til 10:30!!  I am going to get my laundry done!!  I am going to have clean dishes!  I am going to vacuum the two carpets in my house and sweep the rest!  I am going to have dinner and go to karaoke with a friend!  YAY! Oh ( Read more... )

I went to the movies last night!  I saw Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist.  I thought it was super cute and liked it a lot.  However, before the movie there was an Army advertisement that involved Kid Rock singing a song called Warrior or some bullshit like that.  It had the whole Army motto running through it, the "I am a soldier, I will not ( Read more... )

So I got a personal trainer.  His name is Wayne.  He makes me hurt and he smiles while he does it.  I have sore muscles in places I didn't even know I had muscles!  But its good.  I like it and hopefully he'll whip me into shape!  YAY workout!  

When I got to B&N last night and read the daily planner one of my duties was "costume".  Costume?!  After asking my manager what that meant and she told me I got to dress up like little nutbrown hare!  So I put on this awesome bunny costume  (the coolest part was the little body suit you had to wear underneath the fur to make you round.  It was ( Read more... )

So when I got to school this morning, I made the sad discovery that our good friend Icabod the fish had died.  I knew from the moment I brought him to school that there was going to come a day when I had to have the "Icabod died while we were at home last night" talk...but I was hoping it would be longer than a year and a half.  However, despite ( Read more... )

One of my little guys at school decided to take too big of a bite of hot dog during lunch today, then not chew it and swallow.  He stands up, drops his spoon and starts waving his arms.  I look at him, ask him what he is doing, realize he is choking, smack him on the back a couple of times, he starts turning blue, I feel like someone just kicked me ( Read more... )

I am now a proud Barnes & Noble worker!  My first day is tomorrow!  Good thing I stayed positive!

It's been a week since my interview at Barnes & Noble.   I talked to my interviewer today and she said that she had gotten all my references and that they would make a decision soon.  *sigh* It's torture!  I wish that they would decide!  My ego is on the verge of being damaged!!  However, we need to be positive people...so chin up!

I applied for a new part-time job ( I tried to be a one job kinda girl...what can I say...I am a job junkie)!  Someone I knew from college told me that Barnes and Noble is hiring and I put in an application today.  Thinking about it...I don't know what I will do if they A) Don't call me for an interview or B) Interview me but don't hire me.  I have ( Read more... )
