And it starts. Five long, unproductive hours of sitting. Maybe it'll include some intense Collapse playing on my cell. or perhaps I'll crack open my government book and complete the assigned reading. I really shouldn't waste time. J is playing jeopardy. He's pretty good, though today his challengers are three kids. I got my grade back from the speech I had to give last week. C. Blah, I'm such a terrible speaker. Or a good speaker full of fear and lacking confidence. Either way, I suck at it. I'm learning though...hopefully soon I'll have it down.
When I came in at 4, J and Linda only had two sales in for the day. The third sale was made by a guy who tried on a million sale shirts before deciding to take one that is similiar to the color of my dragonfruit (pink) walls. Then we had a man come in looking for a specific style of hat but he wasn't able to describe what he was looking for. The dirty old man said "Its kind of like pornography, I can't describe it but I know it when I see it." This statement was followed by a lot of creepy laughter.
This job is easy. i guess that is why I've stayed for two years. Easy money, even though it isn't very much. Plus, I get so comfortable with situations and I'm not good at change.
4th sale. A hawaiian print shirt with santa on a motorcycle. I know I can't think of a better way to spend $120.
5th sale. wow. the fifth sale was the filth sale. I can't describe it but I know it when I see it. Just a very very raunchy couple.

Oh man do paper cuts suck. and it doesn't help that I'm a wuss. I'm looking forward to sleep tonight. yes, i am. I feel good during the day now that i've been getting so much sleep. More energy and increased concentration are definitely good things. The past couple of saturdays i've gone to bed really early...like 9ish. and during these saturdays, I get phone calls at about 11 to find out that people actually want to hang out with me. but I'm so distant. And I like my time alone...probably for the first time in the last two years. I'm content with me but I still have ways to go be for I can be content with me around company. yeah? So now I am in a place where I can stand who I am. I know how to make the best out of what I have. And I have a lot so this task isn't at all complicated.
