Is it really December 16th?

I can't believe how close to Christmas it is, the time has definitely passed by in a flash.

Today was kind of nice.

I woke up and managed down toast and I watched Gilmore Girls. My dad and Ellen came over and we went out to breakfast. We went to the Cracker Barrel and I was definitely freaking out. It was crowded and my face hurt so much. We had a good table, we sat near a giant fire place, and on the table they had this game which requires logic and I sat there playing it until the food arrived. I had two pieces of french toast and it made me sad because they were a bit boring and everyone else had something they really wanted. Oh well.

I wrapped my brothers' gifts and I finished up A Night At the Opera and the fire place was on and the tree was lit up. It felt all homey and stuff.

I spoke with Allison on the phone and she gave me the code for the itunes card, I still have to buy hers. :x

I don't like that tomorrow is my last day off but I guess it means one less day until Christmas?

I almost bought the first season of AHS but I stopped myself because I know I'll be getting money for Christmas, so why waste my money when I'll be getting some soon enough?

Day after surgery

My mouth definitely hurts more today, well my bottom teeth do anyways, I don't know if it's my teeth or my face. I didn't use ice today so it looks swollen and I could have sworn it looked bruised but my face is always red so I have no idea. It's definitely sore to touch though.

The good news is, I can manage more food. I had french toast for breakfast, and toast and tomato soup for lunch, and more potato soup and grilled cheese for dinner. I even managed to eat a cookie that my mom made. She made oatmeal, chocolate chip cookies. I went to wawa today and I bought a 'winter spice latte'. It's basically a pumpkin spice latte but it has nutmeg and other winter-y stuff.

My dad and his girlfriend came over for the weekend. They stopped by for an hour or two and I showed them Super Mario Galaxy which was cool. And I started watching Duck Soup with Ellen.

My dad bought me the Dark Knight Rises and The Casual Vacancy which made me really happy. Ellen got me this stuffed polar bear with these beans inside, and you put him in the microwave and it's a heating pad. I named him Batman. Don't judge me. And she got me these fuzzy socks which you can never have too much of.

I found these really great photo's on this Lana Del Rey fanpage and I need to post them.




You don't realize how much I love Ride, the video its self is beyond amazing, but the lyrics just speak to me. Lana just understands me, and I can't stand when people say she's fake or whatever.

Can you tell I idolize the woman?

i had my wisdom teeth out today.

And honestly, it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. I had the appointment at 9 and I was out at like 10:15.
My mouth hurts but other than that, I'm fine. The lady at the front desk wrote me a note saying I needed out of work for the next 4 days. I AM OKAY WITH THIS.

So Megan posted

on my facebook wall and I am in love with it. It's my new cover photo.

This blog post is dumb, but oh well.

But it's my birthday!

So today is my birthday and I know it's not over, but I really want to make a blog post now.

At midnight my friend Megan wrote on my wall and I was like





Okay no, I was tired.

At around 12:30 I actually left my room and Drew was like, Happy birthday, you'll get your present in the morning. I actually had a feel.

I woke up to a few facebook posts and it made me have feels even more.

I watched a little bit of Inception but then I realized I had work so I got ready. My mom gave me my gifts and I was happy. I got a new wii remote, Super Mario Galaxy, and this phone case:


I went to work and I asked Sarah if Cathy was there today and she said no, and I almost did this:







Words can not describe how I felt.

I walked into the break room and put my stuff in my locker and I walked back to the desk so I could find what register I would go on. Sarah was like, Allison, you work 4-8. I looked at her like:





I told her, no I work 11-5..... So when I went to the office the schedule said 4-8 and I was pissed because Cathy changed the schedule without telling me. Who the fuck does that? Oh right, Cathy.
Courtney stopped me on my way out and gave me a plate filled with cookies, and she was like, I made cookies for you. thrkjthrkjthrkthfgbtrughtrjkjtrhtjgjfgbreutgbfa



I called my mom and she was pissed. But oh well. I only work 4 hours today, so I'm not complaining.

Drew got me the first part of the seventh season of Doctor Who so I'm happy.




I started playing Super Mario Galaxy and it's fabulous.


Plz ignore all of the gifs. Or don't, I don't really care.

oh how cute

So tomorrow is my birthday and since it's on a Sunday you can't really do anything fun. My mom told me the other week that my Aunt was going to come over today to celebrate and that made me have feels.

Basically that's how I am when I have feels. Okay so Eleven is my spirit animal and everyone should know that.

Anyways, so I worked from 10 until 4 today and work sucked so much. At first Cathy was alright and she actually was nice but then at around 2 she got bitchy with me and I wanted to scream.


Thank you again Eleven for reacting properly.

She would get mad at me for really stupid things, like always. Weis has this new system where you push a button the computer and that sends someone over for 'carry out' which is exactly how it sounds, someone helps brings the cart to their car and unloads it for them. So I would push the button and it would send Cathy over to the register next to me, I think she assumed the lady on that register was pushing it, but I was. So I would ask Cathy if the hand held dinged and she would look at me like I was insane and say, no... In a bitchy tone.
I was standing in front of my register waiting for a customer and this man walked over with quite a few items and he didn't have a cart, so I pushed the button so when she came over, she could get him a cart. She walked over rolled her eyes and walked away. After the guy left, she came over and was like, Allison how many times do I have to tell you, the only times you push the button is for reasons x, y, and z. Even though it was obvious that the guy needed a cart. I don't get it, if someone else pushed the button, she would have thanked them and gotten a cart and probably write their name down for good behavior or whatever. But OHHH no since I did it, that wasn't cool.

Some girl came into work a half hour late today, because she thought she started work at 3:30 not 3, Cathy didn't care and said, oh, well there were enough people on, so don't worry. If I did that, I would be lectured for 20 minutes and then be suspended. Fucking hell.


That's how I feel when Cathy opens her mouth. Everyone talks about how sweet she is, but she's condescending. She walks over and is like, what's wrong hon, or what's up sweetie? To me, that sounds condescending not sweet.

Anyways



So after work I started crying because I was so frustrated and like a child my emotions demanded to be heard.



See Rory gets me.

My mom tried to comfort me and I was like please don't touch me.



My aunt came over and we ate pizza and cake, and it was nice. She got me an Alice in Wonderland puzzle and I love it.

Yeah I'm done.

Some times work amuses me.

I feel like the only thing I don't fail at is making pointless blog posts. Well there are a few other things but blogging is a good fit for me.

So I walked into work today pumped because I knew I had to chameleon for my entire shift and go 'above and beyond'. I got to work an hour early and I saw Samy and I walked around with her for a few minutes while she was helping doing something but then I felt weird standing around so I told her I would talk to her later and I walked into the break room. I sat there for an hour and listened to Lana Del Rey (did you mean god?) and started reading the Shinning, I bought the book a few days ago and I just started it today. I really enjoy it, I mean I am in love with the movie, and the book was only 8 dollars so I'm pleased. Anyways, I read and listened to Lana Del Rey.

After I punched in, I went on register 11 but I didn't care because Kayla was on 12, so I had someone to talk to. Besides the next manager button was working today. (yay). I asked people about the secret sale and I packed their carts for them, but then I realized Cathy wasn't there today so no one bothered doing anything we were supposed to, so I didn't either. I sold four of the secret sale items today so I'm happy.

So there's a guy who works at Weis but he only works over nights, but for some reason some times he works during the day, and he worked today. He's attractive and I found out he likes My Little Pony and I mean he LOVES it. His background is Pinkie Pie, and his ringtone is Pinkie Pie laughing. Twilight is his favorite and since she's my favorite, I love him even more. Did I mention he's attractive? He also likes Doctor Who and Sherlock, and I think we should get married and have children. Well no because I don't want kids. Maybe. I don't know. I had to wait after work for my mom so I sat in the break room listening to Lana Del Rey and playing on my phone and Brandon came in the break room. And we talked and he was adorable and okay I need to stop because feels suck. I don't know if I like him, because when do INTPs ever know anything about themselves? But I think I do. I feel tempted to flat out say, hey I like you sort of and we should get married date. But I won't because I suck. He's nice and he sat across from me at the table when the break room was empty, and he laughs when I talk (I don't try to be funny, but apparently I am. Ask anyone.) and when I left he was like Bye!!!! and waved and I think I might have died a little.

Oh and Rarity is his least favorite pony and she's my other favorite so I was sad. He likes her but she isn't his favorite, which is alright because that's how I feel about Rainbow Dash, so I get that feel.

Ugh I hate feeling attracted to anyone that isn't fictional, or famous and has no idea I exist.

Okay I'll shut up.

Frustrated

Work has been a royal pain in the ass lately but I think I have reached something good-ish. Cathy pulled me into the office today and was talking to me about the new changes of the store and she understood that I was frustrated but obviously 'gossiping' was not good. I don't think she talked to Randy though because then I would have cried or something. (I'm terrified of Randy and if you met him you would be too.) She said I was a good cashier and she wants me to stay and she's giving me the hours I asked for because I'm good, and to be honest that made me crack a smile. I usually have a blank face when I'm being talked to in the office because why show expressions, they feed off fear and shit. I'm beyond tired emotionally these days. While it's nice that I like most people I work with, it's just ridiculous what they make us do. We are expected to stand in front of the registers if no one is coming through, I understand if it's relatively busy and other cashiers have customers but you don't, but if there's 5 or 6 cashiers and we're all standing in front of them like idiots, that's another story. We are now expected to thank them for being a gold card member. We are expected to  ring up their groceries and instead of just leaving them on the counter for them to grab, we are now expected to walk around and put them in the cart. First of all, how ridiculous is that? If they have a massive order, we are expected to do the same. So every time you pack a bag, you walk around to the other side and put their bag in there and then turn around and do the same thing. Talk about time consuming. We have to ask them about the secret sale, and then at the end we have to circle and tell them how much they saved, tell them how many gas points they have and how many cook ware points they have. Most people want in and they want out, they don't give a flying you know what about hearing how much points they have when they can look at the receipt and see for themselves.

I'm just frustrated but at least Cathy said something nice so I guess that's good. I hope things change around there.

In other news, I saw they had the Dark Knight Rises at work for sale and I almost did thjrhtktrjthrhtkjqrhtkjrthjrktqrtrthjgfjkghrtuhg because feelings.
