November 22, 2013

Today was a pretty uneventful day. After sleeping in, I spent most of my day watching YouTube videos, coming up with some new craft ideas thanks to Pinterest, and learning (or remembering) Spanish with the help of the Duolingo website. I need to look into the word endings more because I keep getting you and they mixed up. I and we are easy, 'o' and 'mos' respectively. I'll get better. Or I'll keep guessing and eventually lose interest in Spanish, much like I would do after a week or two in class for the the six or so years I took it in school.

Tonight at work I finished reading Aliens On Vacation by Clete Barrett Smith. It was an enjoyable book. And despite the fact that I bought it at the school book fair, and it is written for children, it was pretty spot-on when it came to describing nervous first interactions with girls. Also, the best thing about kids books, a happy ending. As for the rest of work, I switched off reading two other books that I would like to finish eventually, and did my best to avoid the craziness of Catching Fire happening downstairs.


I switched schedules with someone so I will be opening tomorrow instead of closing. I wish I would have thought to check the movie schedule first though because we have a midnight showing of Catching Fire. A movie which happens to be exactly eleven minutes shy of three hours with all the ads and trailers added in. And it started slightly after midnight thanks to the preshow, which means I won't be clocking out until around three o'clock in the morning. I have to be back at work sometime around eleven o'clock tomorrow morning so I won't be getting even seven hours of sleep. That kind of sucks. I am now reminded of why I didn't like closing on a Friday and then opening on a Saturday. Especially when the manager decides to keep me an extra three hours when it is completely unnecessary.
