*december 30, 2005*
let's see. last night i basically slept impromptu. it was good cause i got to get caught up with my sleeping. =). woke up here and there but eventually got out of bed around 10ish. ate some food and then got ready. went to my chiropractor appointment. it was quick. doc says that i'll be done with my treatment by next week. that's good to know. still had some time to spare and so i went to the dollar tree by my babe's house to buy stuff i've been meaning to get. got tortilla chips, hairbrush, diet pills, etc. then went home. ate a bit while watching another friends episode. and here i am now. i'm finishing ripping my cds on my comp so i can exchange them at mojo. hopefully i can catch up with this entry (as well as previous entries) soon, if not today. plans for today include work from 3-10. until then, that's all for now. letterz ...
let's see, i finished up this entry and then showered and got ready. went to work. 3-10 today. did a bit of everything today. gobacks, fitting room for a while, cashier, etc. recovered at the end and then clocked out at 10. went home, chilled, talked to my babe a bit, and then eventually slept ...

today i woke up around 4:30ish. ate breakfast and got ready. went to work. 6-2 today. i started off a bit okay but then i felt really sick. while recovering boys, i felt really weak and my whole body was aching. plus i was feeling hot and wanting to throw up. i was considering going home early but i tried to stick it out. eventually it came to the point where i wanted to go home early and so i asked stan. he said we'll see. so after my break, chris and i finished baby girls markdowns. i asked stan again and he said stuff like 'you can but remember you only have 6 sick days a year' and 'that's why we're having troubles in the store because everyone calls out sick' and all that stuff. i understood where he was coming from but he told it in a way where he blames me for calling out or for making the store all crappy. i honestly didn't take that many sick days this year (except for my accident a few weeks ago which shouldn't count). i guess i took it really personal and thought he'd be more compassionate and all. seriously, i'm one of the workers who hardly EVER call in sick and i work hard even when i am. but today felt unbearable and he gives me a lecture and all that crap. so yeah, during my lunch i cried and let it out. i honestly did not know why i was crying but it was good cause i'm not as emotional as before so it's good to have a good cry now and then. ate lunch and got back to work. i took some tylenol and stuff and luckily i felt better. cashiered a bit and then joined chris in baby boys markdowns. clocked out at 1:30. i was glad i made it through but i would like to have more support from certain people next time. =/. bleh. anyways, i went home and ate a bit. watched more cinderella man spec feat and then i took a little nap. woke up around 9ish. ate dinner and watched tv. worked out a bit. talked to my babe and then slept. i slept pretty early tonight. that's good though. i need to rest ...

today i woke up around 4:30ish. ate breakfast and got ready. went to work. 6-2 today. work was okay today i guess. did mens markdowns pretty much the whole time. started in feature and made sure everything was done also recovered a bit to make it look good. edmond did shop 1 and so i did shop 2 which was khaki. i wanted to recover it as well but it was kind of trashed. i did what i could though. finished shop 2 and then helped out with cashiering and stuff like that. i also did the boxers markdowns and moves and by this time i was ready to clock out. i took a half hour lunch and so i clocked out at 1:30. oh yeah, i also bought this one frost free jacket. the only thing that sucks is that there's a rip (probably from shipment) and so that kind of sucks. hopefully i can fix it at home. anyways, i left and went to go to my chiropractor appointment. it was pretty quick. no massage today, just with the machines and heat and stuff. after that, i left and got gas for my car. i guess it can hold more gas now compared to my old car. hooray. then i went to blockbuster to exchange the copy of cinderella man. the lady said it was already due but she gave it to me anyways. thanks! after that, i went home. my babe wanted to hang out but i guess work called him in today. so yeah, i just stayed home and chilled. eventually took a nap. woke up around 6 and my babe called. he came over. we chilled for a little bit before he had to go home. hooray cookies! chilled a bit more and then my mom wanted to finish watching cinderella man. started working on my dvd player but then it started skipping AGAIN! i really wanted to finish the movie and so i went to blockbuster and exchanged it again. tried it one more time and it skipped again. what the?! so last ditch effort, i tried it on my new dvd recorder and it worked fine. later on, i found out that format of double sided dvd doesn't work on all dvd players and other people were having problems with it as well. at least me and my mom finished the movie. i liked it! i hope it gets a best pic nomination for the oscars. i still want brokeback to win but i enjoyed cinderella man as well. i wonder if renee zellwegger will get nominated as well? we'll see. after the movie, i watched a few special features and stuff. went online a bit and then worked out. took a shower and then went online again. talked to my babe before eventually sleeping ...

today woke up around 4:30 again. ate, got ready, and went to work. 6-1:30 today. worked on boys markdowns for the first 4 hours. i recovered it and made it look the best i could. finished it within that time which is good. after doing that, helped out elsewhere. recovered a bit and also cashiered. pretty much that was it until i clocked out. pretty normal and unevent-filled day. went home and ate some food. watched more of my friends dvd and then took my afternoon nap. woke up later. chilled for a bit and cleaned up in my room for a while. then me and my mom tried watching cinderella man on my dvd player but it still skipped. so yeah, postponed it until tomorrow. i watched tv and worked out a bit. then i showered and went online. talked to my babe a bit and then eventually slept ...

today i woke up around 4:30ish. ate breakfast and got ready and went to work. 6-1 today. arrived at work and then started on womens markdowns. stan opened and he proposed to do a 'new' procedure of markdowns. basically we just needed to scan and then put up post its and signage and then mark it down later on. i guess it so that the customer will know that there is clearance items still in the shop. i guess it kind of works but there's still drawbacks. it's kind of like doing double the work and there are other things that can't work with this procedure. anyways, me and chris finished doing it that way and then we met up in clearance. we were supposed to tag and sort everything but clearance is already such a mess to begin with. luckily we had the help of erik and also christian and rob for a little bit. tried to do what we could. we were successful in marking everthing but everything still needed to be sorted. got lectured by stan in how we were supposed to get done with the sorting as well and all that crap. clocked out and left. went home. chilled for a bit until my babe came. we were hanging out for a bit today. babe picked me up and then we went out. first off we went to best buy so that i could return my angel dvd. the line took forever but i eventually got the veronica mars dvd for free (in lieu of the exchange). hooray! we also wanted to go to jc penney cause my baybuh got a giftcard but decided against it. i was kind of sleepy. instead, we went to circuit city and bought some dvds on sale for $5. after a while of deciding, i got john 1, bring down the house, and unfaithful. then we went to blockbuster cause i had a coupon for 4 for $12 used dvds. i wanted to get some but realized i didn't really need them and just went home. babe left and then i chilled. took my afternoon nap and then woke up later on. the rest of the night was okay. chilled, worked out a bit, ate dinner. showered and then went online. talked to my babe a bit and then eventually went to sleep ...
