SAD DAY... BUT WITH A FEW HAPPY THINGS THROWN IN...

i could not help but feel a bit sad today... read more to find out about it.

today was jed's last day. he was promoted as department manager at another store. jed was always extemely helpful whenever i had any questions, and there were a whole lot of them. he would always take the time to explain things. he will be missed.

luckily i was able to tell him goodbye (and even get a hug) because although i was scheduled to work from 6:30-11, my manager asked me if i would work a full shift, since our assistant manager called in sick. so i ended up staying until 3:30.

for lunch i went to chipotle, yum yum! after work i got a smoothie from jamba juice. i finished it just now. another yum yum.

a bird flew in the store again today. this was the third bird that's come into the store when i've been there, and the second bird to come into the store this week. except this one stayed for quite a while and flew around to the different walls and sang so we would know it was still there.

my fingers hurt. jed called me to the front to blow up some balloons for a customer. she had 22 balloons. i really only blew up and tied 21 of them, since jesse blew one up for me. i popped one, and it was really loud. i think my heart skipped a few beats. anyways, the silver ones are the hardest ones to tie. they're extra thick. it took quite a while, but like i told the customer, we don't specialize in balloons. i wonder how long my fingers are going to hurt.

i get to work another 5 days this coming week. my schedule will be posted soon.
