I have 3 days off now, yay! Today sucked again, but at least Alex was apparently coming in. My next two shifts are 6am-2pm Friday and Saturday and usually that shift goes okay. Plus I'm working with Tasha who would be an instructor if she wasn't like, "Pffft... I'm not essentially being a shift manager making 2 dollars less than one." So yay! ( Read more... )

So yesterday we had about 9-10 inches of snowfall.  I was 10 minutes late for work because I left the apartment a couple of minutes later than I should have if there was no snow.  Of course I wasn't considering the fact that I would need to brush all the snow off of my car ( Read more... )

So for my creative writing class we are supposed to write about this picture in one of our text books. I figured I'd do it under a LJ cut in case I babble on about it and no one cares. For the record, the picture is interesting, so I'd check it out. I scanned it from my book so the quality isn't very good, but you should be able to get the ( Read more... )

Ever think about the way artists and entertainers view their creations?  It's kind of sad if you think about it, since they can never appreciate the things they make the way other do, or at least that's my assumption.  Da Vinci could never have pondered the Mona Lisa's enigmatic smile, as he presumably knew why she was smiling like that, or at the ( Read more... )

So today I was listening to music on Winamp. I turned on Working Class Hero by John Lennon and since I was in the kitchen making coffee and cleaning my coffee mug, I had it up really loud; it is a rather soft song. So not realizing just how loud it was, I didn't bother turning it down right at the end. We generally keep Winamp on shuffle, and so ( Read more... )

So the other day at school I was outside of the Fitness Center and they have a display all about the 25th anniversary of the FC. In this display they also included an article from the paper about the Highland, which was an amusement park that was at the site of my school before it was made. Apparently there was a fire and a lot of it burned to ( Read more... )

Sooooooo... For some ungodly reason my drawer came up $20 short. I really need to stop letting team members collect out of my drawer. Apparently, while I've been gone they've been having problems with money coming up missing. The only possible way I could have done something to cause it is to come up short is if it was in my deposit, which is ( Read more... )

I still have muscles that hurt from yesterday, and I have Fitness Center I again tomorrow, aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh ( Read more... )

I love the word "dingbat". I don't hear it often, or really use it myself too much. Someone at work uses it sometimes, I think Janis, and I love, possibly because whenever I hear the word used it's spot on. Plus it's a way of saying "stupid" or "ditzy" that's not overused, which is pretty rare, it seems ( Read more... )
