I feel like I've lost my muse. Nothing I've written recently has moved me. (I'm in the middle of a dozen stories, but have finished nothing, which is why I haven't posted lately). I feel like the muse has been gone a while, but when I looked back over my summer posts, I enjoyed rereading the familiar stories I wrote the end of July/beginning of ( Read more... )

Corsages are a pain, but some stories are cute. One young man came in to get flowers and candy for his second place girl after spending lots of time and money on a girl who cheated on him the next day. He had already asked this second girl before he came in, but he wanted to ask again correctly. Then they were going out for the day to talk about ( Read more... )

Wouldn't a person know better than to stand outside someone's fan blowing in and smoke? That's what woke me up this morning. Rude.

I like the person who was working my days off as a person, but not as a worker. The customers didn't either (enthusiastic but ignorant) and neither do my other coworkers, who had to take up the slack. So I'm not going to use her again. I was going to put my foot down about her being scheduled in my department (I write the schedule, the store's ( Read more... )

I'm playing phone tag with the PT people. They got my info last Wednesday, but didn't call until Monday when I was back at work. I called them today and got 'leave your name' message. They'll probably call back when I'm working. Calling them during my lunch isn't going to work either as I can't get an actual person. I was hoping to get an ( Read more... )

One of the perils of summer I hadn't considered: I scooped out some homemade blackberry lemonade sorbet to fill my bowl and a little stayed on the spoon, so I went to suck it off, as you do, and spoon was so cold that I pulled it out of my mouth... along with skin just inside my lip. That was three days ago and it still hurts. *Ouch*

 Let's see if this works. Yesterday it took almost an hour to get the chapter posted in all three places (not counting editing). Today I got it up in the other two places in less than five minutes (the trick, I think, to AO3 is to paste from Scrivener into Rick Text. Yesterday it took me more than five minutes to get the spacing right). What took ( Read more... )

I need names for Kenneth's parents that aren't John and Lisa (Peregrine's parents' names) but my brain is soup today. On the plus side I only had to brave the hot weather for an hour to get a half gallon of blackberries. Lots of berry are still green so we'll have fruit to eat and flavoring for our lemonade, etc. for weeks. Maybe my husband will ( Read more... )

 The other day a woman asked about a wedding bouquet (we didn't have what she wanted for her tables because we sold the last one months ago). I was pretty sure by the casual way she said it, that she wasn't even really price shopping. But I gave her the honest answer that bouquets start at $50 (and that fifty was for a former coworker, all the rest ( Read more... )

I might get someone for back up in Floral who knows what she's doing. I don't want to wish too hard in case something happens (like any one of five people getting sick, one of which just came back after six weeks leave).
