must away

i'm not sure anyone has had the desire to be away as much as i do at the moment. i'm heading out asap just to be gone. not sure where i'm headed or what we'll do, but i'm hanging out with a girl from work whom i get on famously with. she doesn't work in my store, which is even better. we're not supposed to fraternize as they say, but since she's of a different store, so much the better.

the place was hopping last night. massively busy. the most busy i've ever experienced. and it was wonderful. meanwhile, we were setting up the new holiday set, which was awful planning on the part of the higher ups (do we really need to be rearranging our stores on a day which is the most busy of the season so far? come now).

but my boss and i tag teamed it, and it came together.

mingled with an endless rush of customers. and my boss had predicted when it got really busy, we'd lose it.

but we didn't. he prepared us well, and as we left for the night he said,
i expected to see you guys go nuts, but you didn't.

nope.
i laughed.
we are ready.


and so we are.

now i must away, to go somewhere i want with someone who wants to actually spend time with me. i don't get that vibe at home. ever.

the feeling is probably mutual at this point. i don't want to be here anymore than they want me here, essentially. so i drag in after midnight and stay up until 2, then wake up very late, and most times, have to go back to bed because i'm so wasted tired.

but not today. today we play.

i need to find some red shoes. i was thinking converse, but they don't have any support and i need to be supported, i think i have high arches.

peace. out.

enjoy the true american holiday eat fest that thanksgiving is. i know, i suck the joy out of everything, but it's my nature. the holidays, for me, are to merely be endured.
