    I am home, also wishing I was in bed...but I have to work at eleven, so going to sleep now wouldn't be such a good idea.

    This tends to be a gender exclusive privilege for girls.
    Fellah's rarely get away with this.
    Except sometimes at gay clubs.
    And they have to be really pretty boys. :rolleyes:

    Probably not...my first job was at a movie theater, and I used to hide in the usher closet when things got slow and go to sleep...it was only for a couple minutes, but even so, I'm sure if my managers knew, they would not have been thrilled.

    From what I gathered, my sister and her friends get in because one of them knows someone that works there, and she just lets them in through the back. Her going to clubs instead of drinking at home works for me, because it means I don't get stuck paying for her alcohol if she asks me to pick something up, but the little vindictive voice inside me thinks it would be really funny to get the person sneaking them in busted.

    I'm not going to...but I like thinking about it...

    Don't worry. I didn't think you were, since I didn't initiate the "How are you?" exchange. She did, then walked away, and I have no idea why. Her body language could have been that of good intentions with discomfort or because of reluctant social obligations to be polite. Maybe she thinks I want it. And I do, but not if you're uncomfortable, don't want it, or can't go beyond "Hi, how are you?"

    me, too, emily. Three hour blocks between classes suck. On the plus side, I finally have new light bulbs in my bathroom. There are, I think four under the thingie in the ceiling. On Friday, the first one went out, then it got darker and darker in there over the last few days.

    I'll trade one of my employees for that girl, Rei. We have the same conversation every time I work with him. He asks if I played volleyball the night before, I tell him no, I only play on the weekends, and then he asks me if the Mexicans scared us away (we played at a court we don't usually play at once, and there was a huge Mexican family next to us who played really well...since then, he brings them up every time he asks me about volleyball). I'm always worried when he gets to the last question that a customer is going to overhear and, not knowing what we're talking about, get offended.

    Edit: Hi Em (and French Chick! I didn't see your post before)!

    I didn't know they let sheep go to school...

    haha get it? Cause you said bah?

    Ok, I'm a dork...I'll shut up now.

    :)

    Edit: Yeah, Rei, he gets on my nerves with it sometimes. The first time he did it was really creepy, too, because I hadn't actually ever said anything to him about playing volleyball, he'd just heard it in passing. I came to work after not seeing him for a few days (had played volleyball the night before), and he was like "so how was volleyball last night?" Uhh...I didn't tell you I played...stalker...

    I used to love test practice. Monotonous tasks help sooth my OCD, I think...

    *cries*

    No more doggie pile for you, Rob. :p

    Yeah. You could be getting a colonoscopy right now, Em. Or doing jury duty.

    Uh huh. Alberta is interesting. People have no idea what my accent is. I've been told that I have a Jamaican attitude in the way I talk (by a Jamaican). This weekend, one person said I don't sound like I'm from Toronto, then said I sound American. The next day, someone said I sound slightly European.
