how I acquired a poison ring
Ugh. I went to the mall with Amanda - it was
packed. I almost broke out in hives. I don't know what we were thinking. It's the day after christmas, of course the mall is going to be crawling with people. I got some fun things, though: the Druid Animal Oracle, a hilarious book called
Angus, Thongs, and Full-Frontal Snogging: Confessions of Georgia Nicolson, and a "poison ring." The Animal Oracle is gorgeous, but I don't think I'm going to be able to use it. The cards are huge, and my hands are not. I've had this problem before, and it royally pisses me off every time. Can't people take into consideration the fact that most hands do not resemble baseball mitts when they make these decks? Really. But the book is thoroughly amusing, and the I quite enjoy the ring. It's my first - I don't own any other rings. I never wear them because my fingers are short and kind of stumpy, but this one looks all right. The front opens up, so you can put a pill or some powder or something in it. I'm afraid that if I keep playing with the clasp I'm going to break it.
Borders is hiring again. I called a little while ago to see if I had to put in another application, since they have mine on file. I'm supposed to call back tomorrow afternoon, and talk to someone named Mindy. This'll be the third time I've tried to get a job there - if they don't hire me this time, I'm going to start to wonder. Do I have a disease? Am I really so completely unemployable? Do they have some kind of personal vendetta against me? Come on, all I want is a job! Is that really so unreasonable?
I'm going to see LotR tonight with Adam. I wanted to give him his presents today, since I couldn't last night, but I'm still waiting for the last one to come in the mail. I'm beyond irritated at the person I bought it from; I'm ready to hunt him down and commit homicide. Honestly.
back & forth
Wait, there's more!
