the candy man can...

first 'real' day at work i think. i had to learn how to use the cash register and stuff so i was tag teamed with this older lady. frankly, she scared me. she wasnt very friendly and within the first five minutes i was close to tears. seriously. i mean, i'm tenderhearted as it is, but this was crazy. things DID get better as the day went on, and i got to be okay with her. see, my problem is that i'm REALLY shy around new people and i think that annoyed her. it's not my fault she was making me uncomfortable! i think she thought i was stupid cuz i'm new and i'm young, but i proved her wrong within the first hour and she started to treat me better, like i said, it got better as time went on. we priced candy all morning in between ringing people up. let me tell you how i've NEVER wanted to consume so much candy as i wanted today. i didnt buy any though... lol. i didnt steal any either. maybe next time. if i'm a good girl. :-)
i got a little bored after awhile so i started singing in my head or whatever, then a brilliant idea crossed my mind: i could pray! and pray i did. i prayed for every customer we had for about 15 minutes straight... it's hard to concerntrate on more than one thing at once. but it was a start! maybe from now on i can make an effort to do it everyday for at least a little while.
i just got home about half an hour ago and i'm so exausted. i might take a lil nappy nap. i feel bad because i think i was grumpy to frances on the phone. i'm just tired and my feet hurt from standing for 6 hours. i'll get used to it i guess. i work tomorrow at 9am, then monday and thursday of next week. i can handle that. :-) i'm gonna go watch my movie i think! that would be fun... 'triplets of belleville' here i come!
