So she was doing inventory.

What? Inventory was totally fun ( Read more... )

There was no sitting still for Turtle Wexler at the office today. She was up on her feet more often than not, bouncing around as she tried to take care of one task or the other, here and there, even babbling to the plants a little just because she could do that while up on her feet ( Read more... )

True to her word on radio, Turtle was having a very special sale today on dictionaries and Cheetos, forty percent off, fifty percent if you got both of them together.

Here it was! Opening the store for the first time of a new semester! Turtle loved this day, and hoped it was productive and that she's started enough curiosity among the newbies that some of them might come in today. She was bouncing around the store all morning to make sure everything was ready to go, and, of course, putting up signs. Signs ( Read more... )

It was clear because he was pouting. Wiggly little social butterfly that he was, it bugged him to no end that he'd missed the newbie picnic as a result. When he got sick, ( Read more... )

Typically, Turtle was an exceptionally good worker, especially in the office, surrounded by things she was easily enthusiastic about. But today, there was absolutely no hope for her at all.
