Amazing what a good night's sleep will do for you.
Absolutely amazing!
I feel a thousand times better this morning and would probably be embarrassed by the blog I wrote yesterday, but c'est la vie.
This is what I looked like when I woke up this morning:
And this is what I look like after a hot pocket, nine cups of coffee, and a session with the hot iron:
Hot and sexy times, for sure.
I'm headed to work in a bit. It has been a bit of a downer at work this week because, to quote Kathleen Kelly, "My business is failing."
Except Kathleen Kelly owned a small independent bookstore for children and I, well I am an underling for Fox Books.
But still. Having to deal with customers who throw fits to get what they want and when I still won't back down, respond "Well it doesn't matter because you are about to lose your job anyway" is not really a fun way to spend the day.
People are assholes. Above and beyond poor management, staffing, and a failure to get ahead of the e-business, our business ain't doing so hot because people are not willing to pay full price for books and they are not willing to buy books. People are reading less. And they want their books delivered to them electronically. So a company like B&N can make a good profit for a few years off their e-readers, but it will eventually make their brick and mortar stores obsolete.
We don't have an e-reader so we are just headed that way faster.
But I am not going to worry about that today.
Because tonight is the BCS championship game which means, cross all your fingers and toes, that the store will be empty.
Of to work.
No more Bones and coffee for at least 10 hours.
Boo.
But don't I look pretty?
You look lovely and I always think your glasses are sassy. They make me envious cause my glasses are crap!
