Drunken Blog

So I had a really crappy day at work, and am PMSing big time. I have finally opened my birthday bottle of wine and am feeling really good!! heehee Nothing really exciting to post. Work is a pain. I got to be the only one in apparel tonight trying to keep up on returns and straightening everything. Stupid college kids kept trashing everything as they were finding last minute stuff for their Halloween costumes. I should so be fired for how many rude things I said and how many people I told to stop trashing the store or they would be forced to leave. Or at least talked to. But they think I am wonderful so I doubt they would believe any customers who complained. My pizza just got here so I am going to go stuff myself, take a bath, and go to bed.

Colorado

Wow...I didnt realize its been almost a month since my last post. I havent been up to a whole lot. This past weekend Jacob and I drove to Colorado to visit a friend. We left about 11 pm Saturday night and arrived there at midnight Sunday. It was an incredibly long drive. We stopped and slept in the car for a couple of hours in Montana. We had to stop in Wyoming for a couple of hours so he could finish his homework and email it in. The country side was beautiful. We saw lots of antelope and heard an elk. He made two loaves of his yummy bread to take with us so we had good stuff to eat on the way. I was supposed to go by myself but I talked him into going with me. I am such a bad influence on him.

The actual visit was not so great. My friend was not herself. I am going to give her the benfit of the doubt and chalk it up to being seven months pregnant and trying to put together a new house. Her husband is not very friendly either. Poor Jacob didnt feel welcomed at all. I felt really bad. It was an awkward visit. The ride home was almost just as long even without stopping to sleep or do homework. There was rain, snow and lots of construction. It was nice getting to spend some time with Jacob and not be entertaining myself while he did homework.

I havent really done anything else that I can think of. Just work and hanging out. We had a gas leak in our apartment that was fun to deal with. The guys came and replaced a valve which put pressure on the other old valves, therefore rupturing them and making the leak worse. We finally got it all taken care of and have heat now.

Work is the same. We have been really busy. There is a stupid new system for the backroom. All the bins have barcodes now and all merchandise has to be scanned in and out. It takes forever. Although we have discovered a way to cheat the system which makes it much easier. It takes so long to enter stuff in that the overnighters are way behind, which puts us way behind. There are pallets and pallets of freight in the back blocking our bins and hanging racks. We cant get to anything to put it on teh floor or bin the stuff on the pallets that wont go out. Its ridiculous. I havent worked the last four days so maybe its better by now. Our stupid store manager wont let us dress up for Halloween this year either. Jerk

That is it for my exciting life. Jacob and I have been together for three months now. It has gone by really fast. We were supposed to go ice skating last night but he ended up having to work from 4pm to 1 am. We will do it next week some time instead.
