Whoa
So, the other day I was reading a magazine article on "How to Get Great Skin in Your 20's, 30's and 40's" and I started to turn to the section on 20's and then I realized...that doesn't really apply to me anymore, does it? I mean, I'm not 30 yet, but it's close. Now for teh first time ever I'm starting to worry about wrinkles! Gray hair doesn't bother me...I've gray hairs since I was twenty, but wrinkles...man, that's kinda scary.
Yesterday I had a weird encounter with A, the co-worker so bizarre she got her own tag. A is an older woman, not quite old enough to be my grandmother, but close. She has this habit of watching me work...sometimes she talks to me, sometimes she just...stares. I used to really like A, but now she creeps me out. Well, yesterday I was in the back, marking down some over-ripe bananas, when A comes back and starts complaining about how the managers want us to nest the banana boxes and remove the plastic. For some reason, A seems to think that this makes them ripen faster, but it is to slow it down. If we left them in the plastic they'd ripen too quickly. I'm not sure why A thinks that, but she was talking about when the bigwigs realize how much money we're losing on over-ripe bananas they'd put a stop to it. If we have over-ripe bananas, it's because bananas come in bright yellow and then sit in the back for a few days. But A didn't get this.
And then she started talking to a bug.
That's when I left the room.
NaNoWriMo is coming up! I'm working on an outline for my story so that I'll do better this year. I praticed yesterday and it took me about an hour to write the 1667 words I'd need to write every day for NaNo. I'm hoping that I can actually get ahead of myself on November first so that on the second I won't have to worry about writing on my birthday. ^^
