My inspiration for this post came from my dear, longtime blogging friend, Debbie @ Musings by an ND Domer's Mom, who is not only a gifted...
Hi folks!
Well…here it is only three more days until Christmas and I’m happy to say that so far, I made it through retail hell without totally freaking out and biting someone on the ass.
(however, Saturday I came VERY close several times)
I won’t lie…it’s been exhausting and aggravating not having a day off in two weeks; living my life at the store nine hours a day, eating, drinking and peeing, while waiting on mentally disturbed customers.
(please note: I haven't actually pee'd on a customer, though)
Thank god I work with several fun people, who we’ve kept each other joking and laughing through some rough spots. We’ve also kept each other alive with chocolate and MANY coffee runs to Starbucks.
(caffeine is such a beautiful thing, isn’t it?)
I would also like to let you know that the “laundry situation” got so bad, that I actually had to start hand-washing my underwear in the bathroom sink and then lying them out on the hot radiator over night, to dry. You’ve no idea how good it feels to put on a pair of rock-hard cotton underwear that feels like you’re wearing a piece of card board. I started getting paper cuts on my inner thighs.
I won’t be posting again until after Thursday, so I wanted to take this time to wish each and everyone of you and your families a blessed Merry Christmas, and to also thank you for your love and support while I’ve been away. Coming home after a day at work and reading your comments was like an emotional healing salve.
Please know just how much I value, appreciate and cherish your friendships.
You mean a hell of a lot to me.
So in the theme of Vent…I would like to share a little Christmas gift, letting you know that you’re ALL my favorite stars.
Now pretend that this is the Academy Awards and you’re nominated for Best Actor/Actress in a motion picture…and that you’ve ALL won.
Drum roll please……
For Best Actor/Actress in the movie Vent…..
applause...applause...applause!
Merry Christmas, Stars!
