We've been cleaning up our stock room at work, and I snagged a sweet typewriter and a increasingly tacky-looking desk lamp.
Did my taxes (wrong) yesterday, owe the government SOMEHOW, and have thusly been put in a shitty mood. Gotta go downstairs and watch 16 Candles so we can get new flix in the mail.
I am weary! But I only have tonight and tomorrow to work, then my 3-day holiday! Well... not so much holiday as no-work-days. Bryan couldn't get those days off, but we are going to Six Flags on Monday. That could be a huge mistake, considering that it's Spring Break for the younger set, and unfortunately, my tolerance for children these days has worn away almost completely. All that's been though the shop this week have been school groups. These kids may be angels at home, or with their folks, but with a single adult figure, they're nightmares. They chant "WE WANT ICE CREAM," up and down the block, they play with, and subsequently break our pirate pop guns (after about 10 minutes straight of "POP POP POP POP" you'll want to strangle a few yourself.) And the adults do nothing to control this behavior. And then there's the kids who break a snowglobe and don't offer to pay, they take crap from one section and it winds up across the store. These children have been a combination of our WORST customers.
I'd be amazed if my tubes havent tied themselves this week.
But I digress. I don't know if I could stand to be around a great number of kids after the week I've had/ am having. But we're going to try to go.
