sometimes i have to wake up earlier than i have to in the mornin to check my mail/estrip/etc before lauren needs the computer for the rest of the day...

and then i have nothing exciting to post.

been thinkin about moving a bit further north of buffalo when my lease is up - since mostly i work in lockport and lauren goes to school up there. i love the fact that we live right between allentown village and elmwood village for anything that we want to do - but seriously - we don't do anything down here so at this point its just costing us gas. maybe we should just stop being lame!

besides we need to be someplace with a yard so that I am allowed to have a dog. lauren promised you see :) i've named him already. Ralphy.

So my aunt and cousin live up in the falls - LaSalle? she is trying to get me to move near her. And i would have to say that if i were to move closer to anybody in the fam it would probably be her...

but then my boss shook her head at the idea of it. no no no... you don't want to live there...

okay fine. its not like i don't have till June to find out where I want to move to...

now i'm rambling.

So the cats haven't knocked the tree down yet.

it looks kinda nice actually. It is the light that we were missing in the unlit side of the apartment. Of course it kinda looks like the tree is on fire in this picture...



this is what lauren has been doing for the past four days. Well no actually mostly she has been on the computer. She works so damn hard and i just wish i could help her.

i'm trying to focus on keeping myself positive. I tend to get so very irritated so very easily. i guess i made a lot of pretty good sales today too so i guess its working.

(people just really irritate the poo out of me sometimes~!)

lauren is hoggin the computer. the whole 'school work' thing..

yeah sure...

put up the tree last night. its sooooo ugly!

white tree.

the cats will knock it down soon i'm sure.

because that is what they do. they ruin christmas. every year.

but at least when they do bad things i get to yell at them "You are ruining christmas!" and it makes me laugh a little.

egg nog in my coffee. apparently i need more to compose full sentances.

I give my retail season resolution out to all of you know. in speaking it, i have a much better chance of keeping to it.

I promise to chill out when everybody and their mother wants to purchase p hones from me that are not very profitable at all.

I promise to not freak out when THe phones actually LOSE money due to current promotions.

I promise to remain happy and positive throughout the holiday grumbles and rumbles.

I will thoroughly enjoy my customers and look forward to their presence in my store, even if they are only paying a bill.

I will refrain from uttering complaints when they leave.

I will stop complaining about how walmart undersells us consistantly and makes it very difficult for me to deal with customers.

I will enjoy the holidays and all that there is about it. This includes traffic, christmas music, snow, and every member of my family coming in and requiring deals on phones.

Happy Turkey day you ALL!!!!!


(E:lauren) went home for the holidays and i find myself alone for the first time in quite some time! which apparently means eating large amounts of pizza.

now i have to get my butt in gear and clean up this joint and head out to my gram's. It will be insane. lots and lots of people. my mom is one of ten.......

so now i'm just procrastinating.

if i can figure out how to post with my phone - i will. I don't see how i could actually post a mobile photo without going to a pc first. i mean i don't have an iphone like (e:jim) or anything.

anywhoodle. i'm going to play some tunes and get moving. happy turkey gobble guys!

oh and (e:janelle)... did you guys get your gift?
