So, today was interesting to say the least. I woke up at 1 am b/c I went to sleep early the night before (total shocker there). Chatted with Paul until I had to go to work.
Work was a hell like no other. Fridays are usually pretty bad, but this one was epically so. We were 5 people short for one reason or another. I got stuck over in D-block breaking down the repacks. No big deal though. I got to work alone and get shit done. Luis decided to hold a little trivia contest during the morning huddle, and I won a Target hoodie. I'm gonna sell it to Kevan though. He usually wears a hoodie in the backroom and apparently there are complaints about his not being "brand" lol. Oh well, its not like I need the damn thing anyways.
Mom sent me a text, and after my shift was over, we went out for lunch and shopping. First stop was to visit her coworkers tho. They hadn't seen her since before her surgery and were no doubt getting worried at the lack of info. One of the guys stepped on mom's toe and totally ripped off almost all of her toenail. It was nasty. Good thing she was on pain meds tho, b/c she didn't feel a thing.
After that we went to New China buffet in NLR near the base. I took pics of my plates and put them on FB. I love that place. Wishing now that I had snagged myself some sushi tho. Anyways, after we were veritably stuffed, we walked over to the Hobby Lobby to do some perusing through their patterns and fabric. I ended up spending like.. 80 bucks. Bought some tan denim for making some new pants for work and some kickass looking cotton print for a vest. Gonna play with the idea of making a bikini from it more seriously, but most bikinis are made from two way stretch material. not straight cotton.
So we head home, and when we get there I check on the guinea pigs. To my surprise, there is a tiny little ball of fluff running around next to the other two. So I now have to buy another cage. Because I don't want to end up having anymore babies running around -.-
