Maybe it's luck of the Irish?

Tonight at precisely 11:34pm, I arrived at home, opened the gate to the stairway leading to my house... right as it starting pouring in SHEETS. I'd noticed a light drizzle while I was on the bus, near Commonwealth, and by Park Presidio (my stop) it started coming down more. It wasn't so bad on the way home, those 5 blocks or so, but the moment I was safely inside the stairwell, it started coming down IN BUCKETS. ^_^ I am the luckiest girl around. If I'd gotten soaked in that, it wouldn't have been a mere congested nose, it would have been pneumonia!

Box today was boring. Not only was it freezing at first (and I couldn't have the jacket; one guy was using it, then he gave it to another girl in box) but there were a few grouchy customers, and my period didn't help things any. Plus, towards the end of the night when company was lacking, a certain Guy I Used To Crush On talked about as much as a brick. I ended up singing several theme songs to myself, writing ideas for WDKY down, and giggling at references to "Army of Darkness," among other things. -.-; He and one of the managers both think I'm crazy now. Probably, anyway.

YAY! I don't have to work tomorrow, though! 2 days off! Tomorrow is PROBABLY the Matrix: Revolutions screening... I'm honestly curious how the W brothers (don't ask me to spell their name...) -er, that is, assuming one of them didn;t get a sex change like it's apparently rumored- will end the trilogy. I have to watch Reloaded again, though. :P I didn't understand a bit of what the Architect said in the last bit. -.-;

I have to talk to one of the managers, though... about being off Thanksgiving. I mean, it might be the busiest movie day of the year, but...
(1) Only 5 people are allowed requests (legal ones) anyway, so it's not like they'd be losing a whole LOT of people.
(2) They have to pay overtime to everyone... one less person is more money for them!
(3) I have an excuse-- I only get to see my grandparents twice a year. I only have TWO left, and they live in SoCal, which is literally under fire these days. Given all that, is it so wrong to want to see them over Thanksgiving? I mean, I'll work Christmas Day...

Ooh, I went to Venture Frogs, that place inside the movie theater, for dinner. YUMMERS! For only $12, I got Spring Rolls, Sweet N Sour Chicken, and Jasmine Rice! ^_^ Plus 2 free sodas from concession, some "Swedish Fish" candy from a co-worker, and a 20% discount... lovely dinner! Only thing is... had to pay with my credit card... and I have to use it tomorrow (assuming I go out to the supposed screening) to get a Fast Pass. Blech.

Uhmm... uhmmm... god, it's already November. Geez. This is why I never make too many New Year's resolutions, they never seem to come true since time goes by too fast. But I do have to contact SFSU soon. If after all that hassle I didn't get in, I have to apply to CSUN this month. They have a huge student population, but... Well, let's hope I get in there, if I didn't get into SFSU. Because I'm really brightening to the idea of moving to Northridge. It means Mom-freedom, living in a place I like with my grandparents, whom I love (and would give me uberfreedom) and being near Eva and Rochelle, neither of which I've seen lately (of course). It does mean giving up a lot of friends and familiar places, but hey, what else is the Internet for? Besides, Gramps has DSL... ^_^

I'm kinda hungry, so maybe I'll have a bagel. Catch up on my other email, maybe work on WDKY, and then do my little ritual to talk to Michelle after all this time. X_X I hope it works.

Damnit though, Alias only recorded the first few minutes! I ran out of tape! *cries* I had a bad feeling this would happen... lizchan, what happened? Someone give me a summary! Or a play-by-play! ;_; OSHIETE KUDASAI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okies, buenos noches.

I only caught the last few minutes of Alias but...

Evil Francie is alive and well, working for the Covenant. And apparently she might be superhuman after surviving being mortally shot and then escaping and wrecking an ambulance all by herself. Or at least Syd thinks that way.

Yeah, I just remembered something like that from the eyecatch last week. Oy vey. You know who I wanna see again, though? Will!

glad you weren't poured on. ^^ And hey! What happened to taff day?! You never announced it!! *wails* Am I the only person who noticed?

Oh...

[azurite]

>_< Ugh, I know. I haven't been much of the holiday mod lately, what with work sucking so much of my free time. Well, we have nothing planned for all of November, so I'd be glad to announce a belated TAFF day, for all those who wanted to post and didn't.

But it doesn't look like they'll be any Mamo Day awards, sadly, since the voting for the second Overall round went badly AGAIN. I might just have to forego awards for all the holidays, from now on. The only one that ever seems to get any attention is WAFF vs. TAFF day.

*le sigh*

NOOOO!!! We have to start doing something... like, making it mandetory for all users to vote during holidays or something...
I'm actually really shocked someone didn't come before me and was like... where'd taff day go cause I asked about taff day when it about half over.... around 530 i think. I dunno.... I wish the group was as active as it was a year ago. It makes me go sad face!!! *wails*

Well, we can never require people to do anything. While I realize voting only takes a short time, it appears that the majority of the people on-list don't read the messages, recieve only special notices... that kind of thing. I'd like to limit voting to mods only, but... X_X That'd be too unfair? And plus, mods write fics, too. So... I just don't know.
