First random update!

So I happened to load my email the other day and saw an email address that consisted entirely of numbers, the domain containing "verizon" at some point in it. The body had a whole bunch of instructions on how to view video messages and the like, it all looking very much like the signature of an email that someone forgot to put a message in. I was about to click the "report as spam" button when I noticed there was an attachment. Thankfully I was using gmail so I got to see it was a picture of a child in a costume. I thought to myself, "who would send me a picture like this...?" when it all came together in a blissful epiphany: It was Deliah in her Halloween costume! Corey must have snapped a shot with his camera phone and sent it directly to me. Needless to say, Deliah looked ADORABLE. She was dressed as a ladybug, replete with black tights, spotted jumper and a red bonnet. Too cute. She was eating some of her spoils and had a look on her face that was clearly warning her daddy not to get too close to her chocolate.
Scene change!

Today I worked my first unassisted shift, and I must say, I feel I did very well at it.  I only had to call to ask one question that I couldn't remember the answer to (thank you Erin, even though I know you won't see this), but I did have an emergency call directly following that as the register refused to let me total out any sales I tried to ring up.  Again, thank you Erin, you = lifesaver.  Oh, and the best part about today?  My till was PERFECT! Not over, not under, PERFECT.  Score one for me!
Last but not least!

As you may or may not know, November is National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo for short, or just NaNo), and I've decided to try to take part in this.  The basic challenge is to write 50,000 words in 30 days as that's the word count on a typical novel.  Right now I'm a few days behind, but I ACTUALLY have a plot I think I can turn into a novel.  Got an outline and EVERYTHING!  In fact, when I'm done here I'm going to go see if I can catch up!  For those of you interested, I'm going to post the day-to-day efforts on LJ for the applicable dates.  Here's hoping I make it!
