I am thinkin the next I'm doin training is the Brampton session thing on Tues. No email back still. But at least I'm not goin in tomorrow cuz I'm goin to get my hair did...finally. I don't even remember the last time I had a cut.

Sucky ass loss tonight with the Leafs. Ah well. It doesn't upset me as much if they at least put up a good game and it was amazing so it's all good. Al came over too. I accidentally poked her in the forehead pretty bad with my nail. She's like, OMG that was the hardest thing ever! I was like, I just put polish on today *sorry face*.

Me and L went out to BP last night too. We had nachos and talkin about how she and Debbie joined the gym. She said, "I told Deb that we have until Tues to eat all the crap you want, cuz after that it's bein healthy...like not eatin the cheese off this plate," as she realized she was nibblin the stuck-on bits of nacho remnants LOL

I had ordered a Tom Collins, which even our waitress admitted didn't look right, haha. But it still tasted alright so I took it. She told me to try it first cuz she said it right as she got back to our table and I'm like, yeah isn't it supposed to be green-ish? It looked like yellow swamp water :P

So I'm buzzed and we're back in the car about to go home. L hadn't started the car yet cuz someone had called her and she was on the phone. I pushed down the emergency brake and scared the hell outta L cuz we ROLLED, hahaha. But she braked and put it back up so we didn't travel far. Like, all it was was a quick jerk. She's like, wtf are you doin! I'm like, sorryyy!! Who knew we were gonna move? Haha. I've never seen that before...it's not like we were on a hill or any kind of incline at all and the car was still in Park. Good times. I'm not allowed to touch the emergency brake anymore.

Not bad today. Tho it was some crazy ass rain comin down this afternoon. So I watched the guy do his thing at work for a bit. And Evan (L's friend who I had already met a few times before) showed me how to do some things and went thru some till processes with me. Shit, I have a LOT to learn. I'm screwed. I'm sure I can get it down after a while but I'm scared for when I start out. Oh god, please let me just stick with the cordless phones and not the cells or the cameras. Esp since I spent hrs doin inventory and merchandising for the phones tonight...I know them the best so far :P

I looked up SKUs and UPCs to brands and models on a list, tidied up the demos, put the stock in the right places, and lined up the boxes up to the shelf. That whole huge display looks friggin good, thank you! The guy I was shadowin was like, we have the messiest department out of the whole store...cuz we have all guys, haha. That kinda work I totally don't mind tho. I like bein neat.

Another 5 hrs of chill, non-skilled, do-able work. Me like.

Coldplay is comin back for another show in March! I wonder if they're gonna do a similar one tho. Cuz I just saw them in the summer so I dunno. And 50 Cent's comin in Dec :) I love his shit. Not sure how he's gonna be in concert but I'd like to go. Tickets are goin on sale Sat (pre-sale tomorrow) so that's quick. Pro: Rihanna's gonna be doin the show too. Con: Tix aren't cheap. Pro: G-Unit will also be there. Con: The show's Dec. 20, during the holiday shoppin crunch (aka prime work days/time the bosses won't let you have off). I just don't like not knowin when I'd be workin cuz I can't plan things ahead, like my bday or trips or even weekends.

OK I'm goin to bed. I'm assuming I'm not workin tomorrow :P

Leafs killed them tonight, yeah! It looked pretty bad in the 1st period and I was gettin disgusted but held in for the whole game. That was some hockey, ppl.

Wow, I've had a whole 4 days off without training. Of course that means I'm goin in tomorrow. I'm gonna be shadowin some guy from 4 til close! Should be pretty good tho, learnin and gettin hands-on experience...and not actually workin yet gettin paid ;)

Talked with Dar online for a while, did some laundry, had an awesome conversation with L on the phone. Damn, that was funny. "I was LIVID!!" You know when you laugh so hard that you make no sound and you can't breathe? That funny. Good stuff.

Didn't watch the hockey game but doesn't really matter since they lost to Washington. What is that? 5:00 is a weird time to be at the bar anyway.

I cleaned my room and vacuumed the house tho. Some stuff you just don't like doin...cuz they take a long freakin time to do! But ya gotta do them.

Me, L, and G all met up separately at Timmy's for some good ol' talks. God I was so mad last night, so it was good I got out for a bit.

I haven't gotten a work email yet so that means I won't be goin in tomorrow either cuz they won't spring it so late like that.

Weird space I'm in right now. If only I could call it somethin. Hmmmm.

I've got a way to work this out
I've got a way and you know how
I've got a way

Aghhhh...no more drinkin, haha.

Al was my hero and brought over Pepsi last night. To mix with my Absolut Vanilla of course...which G almost took with her daily birth control pill, haha. "That's not water!!" Very close. Me and Al were like, would've been funny tho, imagine her reaction. Cuz G makes the most screwed up face when she tastes alcohol that isn't as sweet as sugar. I'm like, yeah but she'd spit all over my livin room carpet.

That was such a wicked game! Leafs! L went with The Dan to the ACC and we kept callin eachother. She was supposed to come after the game but G had bounced and Al was just leavin as she reached my house. Like in my driveway. The idiot didn't even come to the door or call me. She just chatted with Al while they were in their cars.

It was good times tho. Interesting business with a giant stuffed frog, G's general ignorance, and a globe. We were discussin where we should hold Chrissy's bachelorette party in the summer. And trips to Vegas, Texas, and Puerto Rico, haha. I'd like to see this happen.

Apparently I got paid this week tho. And we found out how much it is for training. Yesterday was alright. More talkin. OMG we hafta go for some 2-day training session at head office in Brampton. I dunno how I'm gonna get there. But that's next next week. And by then, we should be on the floor. I'm kinda excited but I'll be nervous about it too...but that's me overthinkin it. This week'll be shadowin our department buddies so I'll get to handle the products and interact with customers somewhat. Damn, I'm gonna hafta do a lot of new product research! More hw, boooo.

Well our manager said the earliest we can expect an email about this week's schedule is Mon so I'm takin it easy today and possibly tomorrow :P

I just watched You Got Served, haha. That was kinda dumb but hey, it's a movie about dance-offs. It's purely a B2K vehicle.

The Leafs game today should be on right about now. Maybe me and L will hit the bar to go watch it on satellite. Holla.
