There has been some drama at work. One of the guys in my department walked out today after our managers went to talk to him after a customer said that the guy allegedly hit him with a ladder. It was super-intense and kind of uncomfortable. I was hoping it wasn't that one particular guy, even though he is occasionally prone to reacting to customers ( Read more... )

I need help. Maybe you could help me ( Read more... )

It has been a while, but I have a story! I mentioned this on Twitter, but I have to elaborate on it ( Read more... )

This is Day Three of the Icepocalypse, and I want to cry ( Read more... )

You know what's great? That first day in September when you know that fall is coming--and in Texas, I've come to realize that it's the first day that the temperature stays in the low-to-mid 80s and there's a breeze. It was pretty much overcast all day, and I walked Pepper twice, and now she's sleeping at the foot of my bed with her Lambchop toy ( Read more... )

I've worked all weekend. Yesterday, they switched the playlist over from country to pop/Top 40. Within the span of an hour I heard both "Call Me Maybe" and "What Makes You Beautiful". I didn't mind the former, because that song has been cycling through my head for weeks now (and, oh man, the video! Go watch it NOW!), but "What Makes You Beautiful" ( Read more... )

I was at work yesterday when the severe weather started. Our power flickered out for a minute around 1:20, so they started handing out flashlights just in case. I have one on my key ring, so I went back to the break room to get it out of my locker. Someone had turned the TV on to Fox, and they were saying that there was a tornado warning, and one ( Read more... )

It's the end of the first week of the year, and I've already finished three books. SPEAKING OF BOOKS, I started a side Tumblr called What I Read This Year, so that I can post short reviews about all the new books I read. I don't think I'll talk about any of the books I re-read, unless it's an all-time favorite. But really, I tend to read more new ( Read more... )

I signed up for Camp NaNoWriMo, because I need that extra kick to finish Old Fashioned Words, and because I'm crazy.

You know what sucks about titles? When you change the title of one thing to the title of something new because it fits better. Old Fashioned Words was originally the title of my NaNo from last year, now I've retitled that to Be That ( Read more... )

The Mavs winning the Finals is bringing the handsome men to my yard, and by "yard" I mean "job". I've been on the register for the past two days that I've worked and on both days I've seen quite a few attractive men come by, but they're all in the mid-to-late 30s/early 40s range. Sigh, where are the handsome, single guys who are within my age range ( Read more... )
