my excuse
Yesterday on the way into work I hit a drift in the road, slid, and after almost correcting myself, hit the second drift and lost it. Spun around and nailed the guard rail on my drivers side.
The biggest issue here is the wheel damage.
I found a replacement rim for $100 (used) that will arrive at the shopp in Springville, today. Thankfully the tire is fine. Today, I drive BACK to springville on the stupid donut I had to put on and get to find out the rest of my fate. Of which I know:
My alignment is way off, I'm pretty sure I have a bent rotor, will need at LEAST one new rotor, brakepad and caliper. I may need a trailing arm too.
The worst part about the whole thing was that I was on the phone with my mother when it happened (she didn't know it happened, until she asked me why I was swearing) and not TEN minutes earlier we were having a conversation about my insurance being so high, and how I have to do some shopping around, because my deductible is $1000. Fing f f f f f.
ANyways, I hope you all had a great time last night and Sorry I didn't make it!

Sometimes
My Lockport store is currently the #1 Wireless zone store for April (out of several hundred), and last month we were#2. It has been SO BUSY!
Which of course is good for profits, but I'm finding it to be a hard time juggling sales, and trying to keep these guys going long enough to keep their other tasks up. I walked into the store Monday morning and it was a DISASTER.
I placed a $35,000 order because we were so very low/sold out of stuff. Seriously - that is a big order.....
I love working in Lockport because it makes my check much more bearable, but holy hell does it kick my ass.
Today I'll be in Springville, which has still been a profitable store, but less chaos. A little relaxation, I guess. Except the admin lady called in, so I get to do her job too. BAh.... AND as a result, I don't get to go to the dinner tonight. BALLS!
Its so hard leading these kids into battle....
oh... haha on another note, (e:lauren) got a ticket yesterday! haha

it looks sorta like this
the intention is to prune it into a bonsai
like this:
I intend on doing this tomorrow. But I don't have any bonsai pottery. Nor do I have gloves. Which could suck as my hands already have red prickles on them.
AH.

Firstly, I was unable to get my shift switched at work so I can't make it to Tuesday. Sorry folks.
Today is my only day off this week. I'll end at probably around 50 hours and I can't wait to see that delicious paycheck. Overtime AND commission. Peaches.
Ive been writing a story in my head in the hour and a half a day I spend commuting to/from work. Its super complicated. And rather sci-fi. Kind of a Harry Potter meets Journey to the center of the Earth.
Here is just a snippet of the craziness I have developed. A Bonsai Bridge. Yes, 6 trees meticulously grown and groomed over thousands of years to become a sort of bridge over a waterway.
Yup. When I say it outloud it sounds reaaaaallly nuts. :)

1. I really have nothing exciting to share.
2. Anything that I could share would involve a lot of back explaining to fill in all the gaps that have occurred because I have not been sharing. I get overwhelmed and sign back out.
Thus I continue to stalk.

felly who?
I did so for two reasons.
- 1. (e:matthew) and all of (e:pmt) - I am sorry I missed your party. Happy belated birthday matthew, and I hope the party was kicking. I was lame, forgot about it until I was settled in. Lameass.
- 2. I am interested in this Price Rite. I mean... come on its a block away! How could I not? Perfection! Except for one thing...
Traffic. The grudge I have right now for the Price Rite traffic is, at the moment, sitting next to the traffic grudge I have against Pano's. I'm sure once the rib sale finishes, I'll be just fine.
I would tell you more about my life, but there doesn't really appear to be much else going on. Seriously lame, I know. Its all good.

double vision
Lake George was great, New Years was great, and the Bandits game was great.
We even had the Bandettes in our suite with us!
But after 5 nights of drinking and shenanigans, I'm ready for the monotony of daily life.
I am sorry I missed the Estrip New years party though - it looked like great fun.
Oh and I watched Dark Knight last night. Creepy.

vacation from vacation
And since that will be the day after the bandits game, I'm intending on being hungover then as well.
(E:Janelle) or (E:drew) - Let me know when we can drop off the key. (e:lauren) will be out running errands and should be able to drop off the key, if need be. But she doesn't remember where you live either (she was absolutely no help to me in finding your place) so maybe she will go door to door!
This list errand list is too long to write.

Hello hello

and unfortunately I didn't get your message in time, and couldn't find the beer you wanted. All I brought back was some chimay, which is not even hard to find here- but there were too many carry-on restrictions, so I had to buy it in duty-free and the selection was limited. :( I did have a tasty delirium nocturnum while there though, and had a rochefort back at the house too. :)
Ok felly sorry for hijacking!
