Well I should be in bed now so I'll make this quick. I went to work today and I was bored as hell. I did nothing. I called Carey, Jess, and Krista while either workin or on break. I then came home and took a shower. Lori managed to clean the whole house's carpeting. The floors were soaked. I then went to Krista's to watch a movie and watch the olympics. Lori (hers) was having arguements with us on which person was going to win the round/event. Then I came home and learned some disturbing stuff about my cannuck friend. Poor him. Then I just talked to ppl on MSN. Now I'm going to bed so that I can get up and work again tomorrow. Well at least tomorrow is my last day before the weekend. Then 2 days off. I can't wait.

Well once again I had work today. I had to work the cash register again. I am finally getting the hang of it. Allison showed me the difference between instrumental and band music. Now I think I understand where almost everything comes from if not all of it. I also went to the cafeteria with Bill today to get a deli sandwich. The sandwiches there are soo good. Well Ken came over and talked to Allison and I about grim reapers and their actual purpose. I never knew that they don't kill people, they actually release the soul so that they can move on. This one really mean lady came in and Allison warned me of her and she yelled at Allison because we didn't have any workbooks. Allison said we never carried them. (Allison has been in charge of the gift shop for years now. lol. old people are sometimes a pain in my ass.) Allison won't be at work tomorrow because she is going to some convention. So I am in charge of the cash register for tomorrow and saturday. I can't wait. Well I got home and my plans to do anything tonight were crushed by girls that play soccer. Those dykes. Well they really aren't dykes I just got bored. I ended up calling kaylee and talkin to her for an hr or two. I feel much better now thought. I am mostly tired though. I have to take out my contacts, then I am shippin off.

Well today I had a shitload of work to do in the warehouse. Damn Montour had a giant order. Since I am the only one working there now, I had to do it. I think they might have rented for the whole school. They ordered 39 trumpets. Those bastards. It took me 2.5 hrs to fill that whole order. There is stuff like randomly placed now due to that order. Then I got to help alphabetize folders by publisher for Peggy. That was mighty boring. I went and did some inventory and then went to lunch. I went to the cafeteria with Bill and Jack. Lenny the old UPS guy was there. This guy is so funny. He is def my #1 hero. I had a grilled chicken and bacon wrap. It was really good. Then I left and did a few more inventory things and then I went to see Allison to work the cash register. I didn't do bad at all today except I wanted to see how many digits the register could hold and i hit tax and it rang $0.01 cents up. Then I attempted to void it about 4x and that wouldn't work. So Allison came back and voided it like 5 more times and somehow it was ok then. Idk. After about 3 we were getting bored and just sat there and talked about her new house. From 3-5 it was incredibly boring. Almost no one came to the store so I had nothing to do. Then 5 o'clock rolled around and I went to get Bill to leave and then I saw that the inventory bin was full. So I needed to check those in. I decided just to do it tomorrow, but idk when I'm going to get to it since I have to work the register all morning until about 1 til Allison comes in. Then I have to work the register the rest of the week on my own. So yippy. If I ever find how to dial out I will make sure I call someone. Allison gets calls all the time. Most of them are from her husband or her realitor. She's really cool though. She taught me a new phrase today and it was "A chip on your shoulder." It means you have an attitude. Then Ken came over and taught me some crazyass word that his stupid girlfriend used. I'll have to ask him. I tried to even spell it and I had no idea how to even start. His g/f tried to bring a "crossbow-like" piece of art from Spain. Obviously customs wasn't too happy. They ripped apart all of her luggage and ended up breaking the crossbow. Ken is so funny though. Thank god for sane non-musical people at my work. All the music-related people are strange. Well I shall be shoving off to bed soon. I'll leave my work phone number and my extention tomorrow so anyone can call me when you are free since I will prob be bored and just sitting there.

Well today I had work once again. The work week is so strange there. Tuesday-Saturday. Well today I learned how to use the cash register. There are literally 5 or 6 buttons that enter the same amount of 7% tax. They are suppose to serve as a way to tell how much they made. It is so confusing. All of the music looks the same and could be classified into many categories. I even screwed up a customers credit card. I charged him $6.60 more than what it actually cost. Then I thought smart and just gave it to him as cash back. Then some girl wanted to buy a tie but use it as a belt and I ended up ringing it up with tax when it really shouldn't have been with tax. So I had to learn how to void it in the end. I seriously had so much trouble with the machine. I have learned the jobs of 3 people in the last four days and they expect me to be able to replace any of them at any moment. Each job is extremly difficult. I really don't know how I can remember most of this stuff. Well I got home and got my schedule. I was so excited that I have classes with a lot of my friends. Then I went to Kelsey's for a class meeting. It was quite entertaining. Then lori and I left and we came home to my sister and her friends pounding on the piano. I got to come inside and scream at them. It was fun. Lori didn't want me to though, but I did. Then lori scooped me some ice cream and britt delivered it to me. Well I have to go to bed soon so that I can get more training at the register tomorrow.

Well ya, Kels. I only posted part of it b/c most of it I thought should be kept quiet. Then again nothing really happened though either.

Werd man, that cash register stuff will eventually stick in your mind so hard that, not only will you be a pro at it, but years after you leave that job you'll still be able to remember exactly what you used to do to ring people out.
More power to ya, good to hear from you on me bloggie

Well since today was Monday, I got to sleep in. Then after I showered and such my dad told me that he wanted to fix the piping in our house so that we could use the hose outside. It was a disaster. He couldn't get the valve off so we went to home depot for more shit to do this. When we got back, we finally got it off and had to guess how much pipe is acutally used. It was terrible. In the end we got it back together and now it works fine. The wooden boards that hold our house together are a bit charred now though. When we went to turn the other line it started to leak. So we were thinking maybe that could be next monday's home improvement. Then I ended up falling asleep on the couch watching the olympics. They are quite amusing. Well I have work tomorrow so I have to go to bed at a 1/2 decent time tonight so I shall post about the loony bin either before or after the meeting at Kelsey's house.

Well yesterday I had work at "the loony bin" as mason would call it. The people I work with are crazy. Once I got home I went over mason's then Matt called using Pete's cell. We then talked to our folks and decided to go over and play cards with the honkeys and Joe. It was a lot of fun. Then we surfed the web all night and went to random stuff. Matt ended up sleeping on Chris' bed. Since Matt's bed was free, that is where I slept. Brad got the lil love seat and Chris took the couch. The bed was mighty comfy that I slept in. I got up around 3 because Matt's a douche and threw a pillow at me. If I could have slept a few more hours I would have been fine. Then I walked out to the kitchen and had 3 donuts for breakfast. Mrs. Tomnay came in and said that we were having dinner in about a 1/2 hr. So then mason and I stayed and ate dinner with them. We ended up leaving at about 645. I dropped mason off and have just sat on my computer this whole time. I think I need a shower. I feel really gross. I shall post tomorrow after I do whatever. Hells ya I'm off tomorrow, but then back to work on Tues.
