Then I'll move it faster, faster, faster, faster.

Noonish

Only two days off this week.  Today and Friday.  I fucking NEED a day off after closing with Cindy last night.  She makes us do twice as much as anyone else makes us, and every time she walks past me, she goes,"Faster, faster, faster, faster!"  SHUT.  UP!  MY ARMS WILL NOT MOVE FASTER THAN THIS WITHOUT FLYING OFF OF MY BODY.  GO.  AWAAAAY.

The store was closed.  The customers were all gone.   The EMPLOYEES were all gone.  Except for me, Justin, and Cindy.  Yet, for some reason, it is inappropriate to talk while I'm cleaning the glass on the meat display case.

I was already pissed at her for being such an annoying bitch, and for having to clean ALL THREE slicers that night because there were only two of us closing the deli (Cindy had to close up the seafood department because the guy who was supposed to got hurt in culinary school today).  But.  Even though I'd been working my ass off and putting up with her shit for the past nine hours (THAT'S RIGHT KIDS, NINE FUCKING HOURS OF CINDY) I wasn't allowed to make idle conversation to take my mind off of murdering her in the face.  FINE.  I'LL JUST GO FASTERFASTERFASTERFASTER.  MY RAGE FUELS MY ARM.  AND MY MURDEROUS PLOT.  ENJOY.

"Nooo taaaalkING!  You need to be working!"

"We can do both at the same time!  (forced happy tone)"

"No you can't!  If you're looking up at him you're not looking at what you're cleaning."

What?!  I didn't even know where the fuck he was at.  I just responded to a voice from beyond the counter.  SHUT.  UP.  CINDY.  THIS IS NOT STUDY HALL.  I HATE YOU.

"I wasn't looking up at him."

"*hushedgrumble*"

And as if that were not enough, they had to shut the power off because they're doing something to the freezers or something.  I don't know.  But, Cindy had us rush over to the machine to punch out, BUT IT WAS TOO LATE.  WOW.  SO, A FUCKING HALF HOUR AFTER WE'RE SUPPOSED TO LEAVE IS TOO LATE.  IMAGINE THAT.  So, she had us go fasterfasterfasterfaster back to the deli, and I was THOROUGHLY PISSED, rushing round like a fucking maniac, and slipped on the floor (I didn't know Justin had just mopped.  I was too consumed by my attempt to burn a hole through the glass I was cleaning with my fasterfasterfaster arm.)  and landed flat on my ass (and killed myself).  It was a classic Charlie Brown football kick fall, without so many flips.

She was acting all fucking concerned.  Concerned that I might report her ass and jeopardize her fucking JOB maybe.  It's her WHOLE FUCKING LIFE.   She is the ONLY person I've met there who talks about nothing but work.  Justin told me she has kids!  SHE HAS NEVER MENTIONED HAVING CHILDREN, A HUSBAND, A PET, A FRIEND, A THOUGHT, OR ANYTHING BUT MEAT AND CHEESE.  DIE ALREADY!

Me and Justin had a very serious discussion about this (while she was at her 2 o'clock meeting and the employees were allowed to speak) and decided that no one would fuck that.  The kids are either a lie, adopted, or were artificially inseminated.  No one would even rape her.  She'd be talking about stock levels.  Who gets off on that?

Anyway, when we FINALLY got out of there (9 fucking 15 pm), I was on the bench in front of the store trying to release all of the day's frustration by crying and ranting to Cameron on the phone, when Cindy comes around the fucking corner and starts talking to me!  "Are you okay?  How long until your ride gets here?  Do you want me to wait with you?'   WTF?!  NO!  GET THE HELL AWAY FROM ME!!!  IT'S HARD TO BITCH ABOUT YOU WHEN YOU'RE A FOOT AWAY.  IT'S YOUR FUCKING FAULT I'M ENRAGED AND HAVE A THROBBING ASS-BRUISE RIGHT NOW.  DON'T TRY TO MAKE YOURSELF FEEL LESS GUILTY BY PRETENDING TO CARE.  YOU ONLY CARE ABOUT GETTING IN TROUBLE FOR HARASSING AND CAUSING INJURY TO CUTE HAPPY NEW EMPLOYEES THAT THE MANAGER ABOVE YOU LIKES.  YEAH.  MAYBE YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE TOLD HIM WHAT A GREAT JOB I WAS DOING SO FAR.   MAYBE YOU SHOULD HAVE KILLED YOURSELF INSTEAD.  HAVE A GOOD EVENING.  I HOPE YOUR CHILDREN KILL YOU IN YOUR SLEEP.  YOU KNOW THEY WANT TO.

10:30pm

I just got home.  UGH.  It was nice to not have to leave the house until 10am today, but I didn't fucking get home until ten PM.  I'm so exhausted.  I hate all the shit we have to do at closing.  Opening is a LOT less stressful.  You don't have Cindy bitching at you to hurry up about every three and a half seconds.  Plus the actual work itself sucks.  Garbage, dishes, Cindy bitching, picking scorching hot meat off of chicken bones (FOREVER), Cindy bitching, cleaning everything, Cindy bitching.  You get the bitchure.

No one can stand Cindy's bitching.  This sweet old lady, Maryanne (which is ironic to hear from me, because Cameron's demon-mother shares the same name) got so pissed about it that she started to sneakily throw away some of the chicken I was picking the meat off of so we could all go home sooner.  It was SO funny.  XD

Today, I bought a quart of fresh-squeezed orange juice and a giant thing of spinach.  I finished all the orange juice by lunch, and had half of the spinach.  I felt so healthy.  XD 

Then I had a milkshake.

YAY!

1am

That's right, kiddies, I've just woken up.  I went to bed at 8pm (after having woken yesterday at 3pm from a TERRIBLE night's/half-day's sleep).  And I had some left over green smoothie.  I actually like it better after it's been in the fridge.  It's a bit thicker (probably because of the coconut oil, which becomes solid around 75F) and it tastes like blueberry applesauce.  Because it basically is.  LOL  I will have so much fun making baby food for my kiddies someday.  Why do I keep saying kiddies?

So, yesterday, when I got up it was because my mom was coming home and wanted to take me to the farmers' market!  I was so excited!  I think the reason she's buying vegetables is because I told her I was gonna start buying them for myself.  The real question is... is she trying to save me money, or trying to maintain her role as food dictator?  The world may never knoooow.

So, then we came home, I had an apple and brushed my teef, and we were off to the dentist!  I love my dentist.  She is SO nice.  I wanna be best friends with her.  LOL  Really, though, she's just so friendly.  The dentist I had as a child was TERRIFYING and seemed to hate children.  When I had to have teeth extracted, she wouldn't let me close my eyes when I got scared.  She'd say closing my eyes would make me more scared, and yelled at me to keep them open!  So I had to watch the novocaine needle inching toward my gums.  I swear the syringe played the Jaws music.

Compare that to my current dentist, who takes notes on what you talk about, and offers tips on fun places to work.  Her favorite place to work when she was in college was Krispy Kreme, because everyone who came in was so happy. XD!!!  Also, every time I come in, she compliments my teeth.  Today she said,"I love cleaning your teeth.  They're so pretty.  They have a nice color."  I just sat there with my mouth open.  Because she had her hook in there.  The tiny one for scraping, that is.  She's no pirate.  

But yeah, it's actually a family business.  Her dad owns the place.  I guess he does my mom's teeth sometimes, but I've never had him.  She's young, like late twenties to early thirties.  And really cutesy.  I think it's mostly because of her tiny little voice.  LOL  Maybe that's why I like her so much, because it reminds me of my friend Lindsay (Michelle's sister) who, oddly enough, is studying to be a dentist.  XD  I miss Lindsay.  And Mesa.  And Michelle.  I wonder if Michelle is still in China.  She went there this summer with a foreign exchange student she's friends with.

Anyway, then we went to Burger King.  ^-^

Time to turn that baby OVER!

XD

I've been sooooo ridiculously tired lately, and it's keeping me from getting things done.  Like getting a job.  And cleaning my room.  And trimming my hair.  And going to the beach.  And OH MY GOD HE BOUGHT ME GODIVA!!!  Sorry.  I'm on the phone with Cameron, who is currently in Connecticut.  I LOVE HIM!

Anyway, to get myself some well deserved (and well needed) energy for my many-a-task, I'm going to start buying (and eating!) some very healthy food!  Tomorrow me and Niki are making our first green smoothies and doing a bit of banking.  I'm pumped!

And for those of you who may be wondering, yes that spider was waiting for me last night.  On the wall next to my bed, no less.  I managed to catch it using a glass and a folder, and let it outside.  I felt so brave afterwards. 

Not during.

4:30pm

Woke up around 3:30.   It's officially summer vacation, so I don't have to pretend I've been in class all day anymore.  It's a relief and a strain, because although I don't have to be so sneaky now... I get this "WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN DOING ALL DAY?!"  (meaning, other than cleaning) which can be even more stressful at times.  What really irks me is when she says it when I've spent half the day cleaning.

Plans for today:

• Have a cup of Giant Beagle black tea that's like two years old.
• Have some applesauce.
• Start to learn the lyrics to the Lucky Star opening song (Motteke!  Sailor Fuku).
• Start to learn the full dance if I have the energy.
• Watch a million episodes of it (currently on episode 10).
• Maybe play some SyrupTales because the 3rd anniversary event (lasts all May) is AMAZING and I lvl up twice as fast.  (77.76% to lvl 26!)  AND THOSE STUPID EGGS ARE GONE!  YESSS!
• Eat more, here and there.
• Find out if I'm going to Niki's tomorrow night.
• Tell Niki that my mom wants to know if Niki/her mom want some decorations from my graduation party for hers. (Done! XD)
• Try to work on Cameron's band logo thing.
• Try not to fall asleep while my mom's getting ready for work in the morning.
