Things are looking up...

  • Got confirmation.... now we will see what happens.
  • Mom and Dad are coming to visit this weekend to spend time and bring my Christmas tree. So excited to put it up.
  • It officially snowed, which means the people of the great state of Ohio don't know how the hell to drive. I mean, seriously, 15 in a 50 just cuz there is a little water on the road?! Come on people!
  • October Road is back on the air... Yahoo!
  • Still happy I moved here. More now than ever. I don't think that will ever change.
  • Enough with the lists... off to bed!

The wonders of Black Friday weekend extravaganza!

I don't think that I ever worked and hoped that it would end but never end at the same time. The 14 hr shifts, having t0 pretty much stand up at the front cold from the doors, and dealing with a few choice customers, associates and shoplifters kinda sucks. But for the most part, all of the customers were really happy and well-behaved. We didn't have a lot of complaints and the ones that did were just trying to cheat the company. Gotta love the holidays! I think the best time started today about 6 when you could tell we were all tired and wanting this weekend to end. I think the last 3 hours were the best time I have had with all of us together. I don't think that will ever happen again. I think that the best part was Michael trying to talk gangster so he "could sound hip" and then 4 black guys walk around the corner. Can we say AWKWARD?! hehe... Makes me even more glad I moved down here.

Everything else is great! Life, work, family... its all wonderful. I mean, there are always a few hiccups, but is all worth it in the long run!

Wednesday, November 7

I wish I could describe this day in one word...

Today was my first day "flying solo" as they call it. I had my first official close as a manager without anyone else there. Really, after a few hiccups, it wasn't too bad. Definately not as bad as I thought it would be, except for the fact that I T kept calling and asking me questions and when I tell them I don't know, call back tomorrow... don't keep asking me questions!

Other things are going well... but don't want to jinx it. We will see what happens.
This weekend going up to the cabin and spending time with mom and dad. Real excited, especially since I'll be hittin the casino saturday night, which I haven't done since a few days after my surgery.

As of right now... besides this weekend, won't be home til Christmas. Have lots on the plate the next two months, including Black Friday (Yahoo!!... yeah right!) and lots of plans with the co-workers... hehe... pictures should come with those fun trips!

Besides that, not much is new. Had a great time spending time with SA, JR, Brandon and Andrew this past time weekend, with special appearances from Nathan and Dad Bornemann. Definately worth the laundry. I sometimes forget why I love talking to Brandon and Andrew.. until we sit at my parent's house for 5 hours and laugh our asses off!

Now its off to bed... tomorrow's truck day and I gotta lotta stuff to do tomorrow before Friday comes. Yeah, definatly should have cleaned up the house a little bit instead of playing video games. (But Mom, I was on Level 5 of TMNT Tournament Fighter! I can't stop now!! hehe) Have a good one!
