Work and whatnot

Aug 13, 2006 22:10

Everybody is getting ready to go back to school... for the most part. Most people are leaving this week (or this coming weekend). I won't be leaving for another 12 days. Yay for me? Not exactly. I get to hang out here in Sarasota by myself for a week. But then again, how is that any different from how it is now? I wake up, go to work, come home, watch tv and sleep. Throw in some high quality computer time and a few phone conversations and you have my life in a nutshell. Not that I'm complaining. I'm not. I am relaxing... enjoying the lackadaisical lifestyle before I get thrown back into the mess we call higher lever education. Gotta love it.

I am so excited for this year. Living in a new dorm with some of my best friends (providing that the dorm is actually ready on time), not being the new kid on the basketball team (providing that I don't break something between now and then), and hanging out with JAAAAKE! Should be a good year. That is all I have to say about that.

Work today was pretty lame. Except for the fact that I got to leave an hour early because we got the store in pretty close to perfect condition in less than 30 minutes after we closed (which is pretty close to impossible on most days). Oh, and there is this one girl who I cannot stand at work because she is an air headed slut (who admitted to it... by the way) who just likes to hear herself talk over the walkies. Anyway, a couple weeks ago she was telling us (and by us I mean the whole store and anybody else that would listen) how she had an argument with her teacher about the Great Depression. I was thinking okay, this is possible. You may have different outlooks on how the government could have handled things, how it was caused, etc. But no. She argued with her teacher, for an hour, because this girl thought the Great Depression was when all the dinasours died and everybody got depressed. Not even kidding. And she was almost proud of the fact that she was arguing something as outrageous as what the Great Depression actually was. Anyway, today she brought it up again, and then went on to amaze me in her ignorance. Today she admitted that she thought Anne Frank made the first American flag. Can we just examine this statement for a minute. A) Anne Frank wasn't even American. She was German. B) Anne Frank was born waaaaay after the American flag was established. And I'm sure there are many other obvious reasons... but whatever. I asked her over the walkie if she thought about what she was going to say before she actually said it. She just laughed and went on blabbering about nothing. I don't really even know this girl, but I have never wanted to pop someone in the face so badly. I thought natural selection weeded people like that out??
