Does my cranky wench look big in this?

ME: How can the kids' section get SO out of order so quickly. I just alphabetized this whole thing a week ago, and now look at it!

SOUPY: It's not just your kids' section. Today, I found a mystery novel that belonged near the floor with the other Ws. It was up on the top shelf with the As. Figure that one out.

ME: And what are these doing here?

Sleep deprivation and customers? I think life is asking too much of you! Better nuke 'em all, keep a diary (useful for when Bear is bigger and you actually have time to write apocafic again) and start over. :)

LMAO!

No. Because then it would be:

Customer: I wanna look at a book.
You: Which one?
Customer: ...I think it was red.
You: ...
Customer: Or maybe it was blue.
You: ...
Customer: It was on Oprah a couple of years ago. You know, that book that everybody liked!
You: ...

Hey, I can promise you I wouldn't come bother you.

Ah, but you've taken the wrong approach.

When I was a bookstore clerk, I used to feel clever when I found books out of place and put them back...made it fun, rather than frustraiting. (True, though, that the kids section was always a trial.)

I still pick up books that are in the wrong section and try to get them home again when I go to bookstores.
