Is it January yet?
I have 5 days off from work, starting tomorrow. In a row. Pretty happy about that. In any event, I needed the time off. This past weekend at work was indescribable.
By the end of it I felt fairly certain I was perfectly capable of throttle someone to death. Why? Several reasons: We're painfully understaffed (so I end up doing the work of three or more people), it's Christmas shopping season (so every customer is an utter prick), when shit doesn't get done the managers bitch and complain and wonder why (BECAUSE WE'RE UNDERSTAFFED), and a number of my fellow coworkers are dumb as fuck. For example, a woman came in this past Saturday, saying she had driven all the way from the Sugarloaf area to purchase a 76-1/4" tall double french door. WE'VE NEVER HAD THOSE. Yet, someone told her on the phone that we sure as shit did, so come on down from fucking Timbuktoo to pick it up. Needless to say, she was livid when she found out that we didn't have it. Anyway...
How I will spend my mini-vacation:
- Getting my malfunctioning iPod replaced at Best Buy, as well as picking up my sexy new 200gb external hard drive.
- Picking up the layaways containing items for our future apartment.
- Gaming.
- Catching up on lost time with the love of my life.
- Sleeping.
- Whatever the fuck I want, biatch.
In recent weeks, I've been mulling over this idea for a pen-and-paper RPG, and I've come up with quite a bit of material. I'm not going to divulge any information, as I need to keep it to myself until it gets published. Yes, published. I've set up shop with a particular online outfit that will allow me to self-publish this bad boy, as well as sell sexy merchandise for it. This could be a lucrative venture; in any case, it'll be fun.
I'm starting classes at UMF by mid-January, the 18th I believe. My last day at Marden's is the 8th of January. Oh, and next Wednesday we're getting our Christmas bonuses, which is always nice.
More to come at a later date.
