A few things

First, I must remark on the apparent stupidity of Walmart (unless anyone can give me a good explanation on this one). So I found a really nice DVD shelf for $27 (Here if you want one!) and it said it was available at the local Walmart. So I headed over there today, only to find it for $40! So I asked one of the employees about it, saying that it was cheaper on their website, and she explained to me that if I want the cheaper price, I should order it online and have it shipped to store for free....err, wait, what? Doesn't this seem like a lot more work for Walmart than just letting me pick up the shelf RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME for the cheaper price? But no no, that's not how it works, so I ordered it online like she said and in a week or so, my $27 shelf will be delivered to the Walmart where I can go pick it up.

In other news, I am really liking my job. I'm working on teaching the toddlers some basic sign language (so far we're working on "done" and "more"). They're all under 2 years old, but I used to babysit for a toddler whose parents taught her sign language and I really liked it. It has been ridiculously cold here lately and all the other schools around here closed except for mine. -_- It was around -30 to -40F with windchill. Yes, snot really does freeze.
