current read: the HP's I'm on the prisoner of Azkaban
current music: I don't really listen to music all that much lately cause of the tragic loss of my ipod but if i did i would be listening to Lady GaGa..... ALL THE TIME!
Hello poeple,
I want to let you all know first and foremost that it's freezing cold here in the windy city but i'm pretty warm most of the time because I live in a cave. (in this instance I use the term cave meaning my room has no windows but is not actually like a cave because caves are cold and my room has a giant red heating pipe running through it)
Let's see.... since last I blogged nothing really of note has happened except that I acquired a real bed....with a box spring and everything... I'm sleeping a lot better these days. I also started another show The Pirates of Penzance- The show is a lot of fun and I'm particularly loving being with this cast.
We finally got TV in our humble little place which is kinda sad to me because before if i was bored I would clean or do yoga or read and now I just kill braincells surfing through channels looking for something decent to come on. although I do like how we get the aljazeera network. I don't watch it I just like knowing it's there.
I recently had a situation at my job with this girl who came in, she must have been having a bad day and me and my coworker shmirma (name changed to protect the innocent) were also being rather grumpity. wemust have all just started off on the wrong footing and since we (my coworker and I) were not feeling this girl (she was being a little too snippy-it's just tea people) we didn't bother to turn things around and give her what we call signature service.That was a mistake on our part but we didn't really think anything of it. Well homegirl went home and emailed the owner of the company telling him how rude we were and how mistreated and hurt she felt.... Okay I agree we didn't go above and beyond as we usually do to make this girl happy but she was no peach herself and give someone time and a knack for non-fiction writing and things start to happen, like people start talking about firing people. luckily it was us (me and schmirma) were talking about here so our manager knew we would never treat anyone as horrible as she made us out in her email. anyway, the whole thing blew over and all is well but it serves as a reminder to me- no matter how bad of a day i'm having, and whether i'm in front of or behind the counter anywhere, I should always be nice.
Because when you are nice to people they are likely to be nice to someone else and doesn't that just make everything better?
the answer is yes.
In other news I heart my roommate alot. Here are just a sampling of the fun things we do when at home and without chores.
Juggling: she's teaching me a lot of cool partner tricks
making grilled cheese: my cheese is dairy free but it's still fun
sing: we made a delightfull little song about our mouse Consuela
STOP!!!! WE INTERRUPT THIS LIST BECAUSE..... we have a mouse (ew right?) I named her Consuela and she lives part-time behind the oven and part time behind the fridge. There's no particular reason why I named her the way I did other than I like saying it.... Connnssssuuuueeeeeellllllaaaa. rolls right off the tong.
now i've lost my motivation to blog so- to all my faithfull readers out there (both of you) Happy Holidays!
