At last...a day off.
Jul. 27th, 2007 01:09 amMy first day off as a working chick is tomorrow. My plan is to spend the weekend writing and relaxing, lunching with friends and watching a movie or two. I want to see Harry potter again but everyone I'd go with is out of town.
Work is pretty hard. After all my whining about how I don't need a strong musical background to do this job, I really could use a stronger musical background to do this job. I've got my eye on a Fender mandolin in my endless quest to learn an instrument. I'm finding it quite daunting, the amount of product knowledge I'm expected to know. My trainer says I'm doing well, so I'm probably putting too much pressure on myself (surprise) and could stand to relax. But I'll feel like a complete tool if I screw up this job after being out of work for so long. H keeps telling me to relax and not worry so much. He's a good one, that H.
I'm a bit late with this, but Weekly World News is suspending publication. I can't believe it, not just because I need to know what the aliens are up to, but because I'm shocked that enough people aren't buying the magazine to keep it afloat. I mean seriously, those things are good for a million and one yuks.
And now...the Friday Five:
1. What item would you be embarrassed for people to know you own?
There are probably some movies that reflect badly on my taste, Kingdom of the Spiders maybe?
2. What is something you splurged on just for you?
I haven't splurged on anything in a long while. But I am buying an iPod at the earliest possible opportunity. Yeah!
3. What is something that you own with no real world value that is priceless to you?
My class ring, which was a gift from my mom and her husband.
And my Welcome Back Kotter pillow.
4. Do you collect anything?
Movies, Chick Tracts, action figures/dollies, comic books, gargoyles (though I don't have very many gargoyles, I always want more)
5. What item belonging to a friend/family member do you covet?
Either![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lickingtoad or Paul has the Talking Krusty Doll. I also heard that clockworkmonkey has Kang and Kodos, which I'd figuratively kill for.
