sunburn in September, that's gotta be a first

[liveyourstory]

We've had some crazy Indian summer thing going on this week, it's bizarre. I mean, I'm not complaining-- it's been nice and sunny and not too humid and even though I've been stuck inside a dark bookstore the whole time, it's still cheered me up to have some nice weather again. Although I was also grateful for our air conditioning! Especially today.

Tea supplies were...good enough, I suppose. One of the problems with still living at home is that the parentals get final say on what tea brand we buy in, and unfortunately they prefer Tetley while I would rather have PG Tips or Typhoo. Luckily I had both green and peppermint tea to keep me going. We had grogeous weather right up until yesterday. It was still warm-ish in the morning but with a nice breeze, but by early evening it was cloudy and chilly. Today doesn't deserve comment.

That's one of the tasks I perform, true. Sometimes it feels like I do everything but actually sell books! We get some interesting stereotypes: the sci-fi/fantasy fans (around Christmas time we moved our sci-fi section from the ground floor to the basement, and you could always tell which were the people who came in looking for it even before they asked); the foreigners (we get a lot of those, being a popular city with the tourists); the people who assume you've read every book in the store.

I'm pretty good thanks, hope you've been keeping well. I've got a busy few days coming up (schmoozing with the rich and famous...or something like that!) so I'm enjoying a day off and spending it watching a couple of DVDs my cousin leant me.
