work was strange yesterday, i got thrown onto a register, was expected to know everything (because i worked there 4 years ago, nevermind that things changed, a lot), got no break and stayed 45 minutes late (unpaid) learning how to close the store because tonight i'm doing it solo. a little nutty for a first day i would say. for those who don't know it, i work at claire's now. a place i swore i'd never work again (i do that a lot). we watched the canada day fireworks from my mom's livingroom, there were trees in our face so we only saw the higher ones but it was pretty and more comfortable than going out into the cold to get sandwitched in with the mob scene. wednesday is husband's birthday and i have the day off, i'm so glad.

five or so years ago i worked at this square clothing store called northern reflections. it only lasted a short while because i was planning on blowing town, the district manager thought my hair and piercings might frighten the customers, and the manager was an anal freak that spoke to everyone as though they were 2. she was in her mid twenties, engaged to a short, lazy eyed goon i went to highschool with and she always went on about stupid bland old woman crafts and various gross things she would buy for her wedding. she also enjoyed explaining the differences between hunter green and emerald green, and going on about how wrong it was for one of my co-workers to live with her boyfriend without being married, and how she would never disrespect her parents by living with her boyfriend before they were married (even though they were humping, a fact she conveniently neglected to mention during her speeches). i saw her in the parking lot of michael's today (big ass craft store) taking two giant pillar vase things filled with fake white flower and lace and ivy crap, into the store. i wonder if she ever married that little freak. next door to the craft store they had a pet store where we bought some cat nip for lucky, she's all cranked up attacking her scratching post and rolling around like a lunatic right now. tomorrow i start work. i've got 4 hour shifts all week and husband's birthday off (wednesday). my mom lent me some scratch so i could buy him real presents and give him a proper birthday. we did all the shopping and wrapping yesterday but i musn't say anymore because he reads this and i wouldn't want to spoil the surprise. we went to a mall today and saw my mom's car in the parkade, so i left a whistle on her windshield. i'm that nutty.
