So I finally got around to watching Absolute Zero, the poor man's Day After Tomorrow. It wasn't really worth staying up for, but I wound up sleeping for roughly 2 hours, then headed off to work. Interesting people I met at work today (Earth Day btw ( Read more... )

The only real mistakes I made were forgetting to give this guy his Newports when he'd paid for them (he came back maybe 30-40 minutes later and jokingly ( Read more... )

In case the locals around here haven't heard, a BP station close to Southern Regional was the site of a shooting. I'm perfectly fine and it wasn't the store I work for. I only work Sunday morning and Saturday afternoon this week, and I'm enjoying the time off. But when I heard the news story I sort of froze in place. The circumstances lead me ( Read more... )
