Day 06 – Your day, in great detail


My alarm went off at 6:45 am and I hit the snooze button twice. Finally jumped out of bed at 7:03 am and immediately headed for the kitchen. Made coffee, and got a cup of water. Stopped to pet Berniebutt with my foot. Got on the internet, got up to get coffee, got back on internet, blah blah blah. At 7:56 got up and got my clothes (specifically grabbing my whale socks because they are my favorite), then went to Mom's bathroom where I changed my pad, got dressed and took a piss. Brushed my teeth. Put on socks and shoes. Grabbed totemrock and put it in my pocket and snatched up purse and told Mom I was leaving. Unlocked door, opened door, locked door. Thought Mom's truck was behind mine, then realized I was wrong. Unlocked truck, got in truck, closed truck. Turned truck on, switched Bathhouse Betty for Carole King. Pulled out of driveway. Drove to work cursing at fellow morning commuters and singing off key to "You're Beautiful" while probably getting most of the lyrics wrong.

Took my street until it ran into Woodland Hills Drive, drove straight through the lights and took a left onto FM 1960. Drove. Cursed at the sports car going under the speed limit. Sang along to "Where You Lead" and considered turning on North Houston Avenue. Decided to just take the turnabout under 1960 instead. Did that. Turned into the parking lot. Parked. Held door open for feeble old man and then entered Donut Junction or whatever the fuck it's called. Waited in line. Studied Asian adverts. Ordered a dozen mixed donuts with half a dozen glazed. Got one donut free. Paid with a card then left. Got in truck. Bitched about the stupid bitch driver who was sitting behind me ("Bitch move I have to go."). Finally pulled out and headed to the south exit of the parking lot and turned right onto Business FM 1960. Waited at the light. Light turned green and I drove. Turned right into the parking lot and sped over the speed bumps. Parked. Got out. Walked to door. Unlocked door. Locked door. Realized Cathy wasn't there yet and the alarm was beeping. Ran to the alarm box (while holding donuts!!!) and shut it off. Meandered to the back wondering why the fuck Cathy was late and hoping she wasn't asleep. Clocked in. Turned the lights on. Decorated donut box.

Cathy walked in. Had a brief conversation about how she got all red lights on her way in. Shared donuts and counted the safe. Put a smiley face next to the total to jazz things up (yeah I'm a dork). Let people in, told them to eat all the donuts. Set up front registers while Cathy set up the balloon counter registers. Wandered around. Realized we were open already. BS'd some reason to tag costumes with Krislynn. Made tags for costumes. Tagged costumes. Walked around. Checked my e-mail. Went to bathroom to post to std. Waited in the back for Kayla to show up. Pulled her hair when she did. Walked around some more. Made faces at Kayla while she talked on the phone with her bank instead of working. Went into the office and pretended to do work while drawing Kayla an elephant. Gave Kayla the elephant. Got bored of walking and decided to work.

Wandered over to aisle 9 to tag costumes. Sat on the floor and bemoaned its hardness and my curvy spine. Checked my e-mail. Tagged costumes (lots of costumes). Checked my e-mail. Stacked boxes. Repeat repeat repeat. Shuddered as Steve arrived. Stacked boxes so I could hide from Steve. Moved phone to crotch so he couldn't see me screwing around. Considered shoving my phone down my pants and calling myself but realized that would not turn out well since I was on my period and at work. Wondered if anyone had ever actually done that. Wondered if any of my friends had ever actually done that. Debated whether or not I was a creeper for wondering that. Tagged and checked and stacked.

Got up and walked around. Told people to eat more donuts. Sent Krislynn on break and put Lanette on register. Bitched about Steve fucking up Joe's project. Talked about idiots. Sniffed Krislynn's chorizo. Went back to my boxes.

You know that drill.

Krislynn came back and I sent Lanette on break. Went to the back and made a paper airplane and threw it at Kayla's head. Bemoaned my lack of paper airplane making skills.

BLAH BLAH BLAH SHITTED AROUND SOME MORE.

Mr Don came and then Chris showed up and then I went on break. Church's chicken and the ice in my drink melted before I got back to the store.

(and I'll finish this tomorrow because it is fuck two in the goddamn morning. NIGHT BITCHES.)

Day 06 – Your day, in great detail, part two


After my break I clocked in and bought some gum and then went back to my boxes. Tagged costumes, checked e-mail, tagged more costumes, put them back in the box and moved it so it blocked me from Steve's line of sight even more (idiot douche was painting the dressing rooms but didn't bother to prime the wood beforehand). Then Joe snuck up on me and asked to go on break. Blah blah blah, I went back to my boxes.

Cathy went and got back from her break. I chopped my hand open and bled all over the place. Luckily I had a MLP bandaid in my Filofax. Bandaged up my wee finger and then barked at my employees a bit. Made a copy of the cleaning chart and reconciled two registers. Walked the store and made sure they had cleaned properly while making lewd jokes and giving Joe a hard time. Let them go then sat with Cathy in the office waiting for Chris to get back from his break while I spun around on the roll-y chair. Tried helping one of the new-ish girls find some tablecovers and napkins that were no home merch. Chris got back and he gave me a handful of Whataburger coupons and I pulled Kayla's hair once more before leaving.

RAIN WHY WAS IT RAINING ARGH.

Drove home, praying my super old windshield wipers didn't break (I really need to get those replaced). Got home and petted Berniebear and got dressed. Blue/white/black dress with white and black leopard print lame leggings and black boots with a black jacket. Sat down and waited for Gene to show up. Almost fell asleep. Picked up at 6:14 pm with red roses and a card waiting for me in Gene's van. Went to Saltgrass Steakhouse and nommed the steak and talked the talk. Had another pina colada. Drove home and was offered a TRIP ANYWHERE I WANT TO GO. He suggested Europe and/or DC + Mass. and I'm debating between the latter or California. Said good night and came home and cut flowers and put them in a vase. Brother left me a book (Eat, Pray, Love). Talked on the phone with Lauren and Peri and was incredibly awkward (I suck at phones, sorry) and then Mom came home and we talked while I played with Legos. Typed up the first half of this thing and went to bed really insanely happy.
