My Fakir icon is teh sexy :3
Well, I hope everyone is pleased with various things and whatnot *smiles while others attempt to puzzle out cryptic message*
New layout--very pretty :3 For some reason, I tend to gravitate towards blues and greens and yellows in my decor *shrug* I was actually looking for the one![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
magic_truth just switched hers over to because I thought it was lovely, but I couldn't find it *sadface*
I worked today. Even though it was supposed to be my day off. See, the Management in their infinite wisdom decided to schedule Buffet Night for my department and the Kitchen. And then I'm sure they sat around, stroking their metaphorical beards and thinking to themselves, "You know, I don't think it's at all important that we actually tell Chinese/Italian or the Kitchen that they're doing the Grand Buffet on Thursday. It'll be a surprise! Like Christmas and their birthdays all rolled into one!"
...yeah. We honestly wouldn't have known about it if one of the ladies who worked in the kitchen hadn't seen the ad in the paper and raised the department alert. So I got to come in and help with the rampaging masses.
Except, ya know, they were more rampaging for (and in some cases, complaining about) the $3.99 large pepperoni pizzas. We couldn't keep those things on the rack! But then we had people who swore up and down that it wasn't the same size as shown in the ad...yeah. Lots of fun.
Another (almost amusing) side-effect of this being sprung on us liek whoa was that we didn't have a chance to find out if the discounts were being added in automatically, or if we were supposed to change the labels. So we changed the labels...only to have the really complainy lady come back and, after complaining, was nice enough to point out that it was taking the dollar off up at the front. So instead of ringing it up at the priced $3.99, they were going for $2.99. We went through probably twenty pizzas like that before the error was noticed.
What makes this amusing, you might ask? Apparently, NO ONE knew about the Midnight Madness, and so EVERYONE was scrambling to get things ready. So the bakery next door did the same thing we did and printed off labels with the sale prices on them, not knowing that the discounts had been programmed into the cash registers. I would like to shake the hand of whoever was honest enough to point out that their bakery goods rang up at twenty cents. Poor bakery people.
On the very bright side, I didn't have to stay and help with closing. I got to leave at eight, an hour before close. That was pretty glorious, let me tell ya.
...does anyone have any Princess Tutu fic recs? I'm hankerin' for a good read ^.~
I feel like there was something else I was going tobitch post about, but I can't remember what it is. Huh. Oh well. Still need to figure out when I can kidnap kaitodoushi and watch the last two volumes of Tutu with her so I can see her reactions to all the glory. Why yes, I am obsessed! How did you know?

Must you play with my infinite sense of curiosity?
no subject
If you must know, I gave a friend her birthday/Christmas presents for the next three years today.
no subject
Ah, that makes sense now. Well, thank you for taking mercy on me and telling me what was up with that comment because you know how I am--I don't like cryptic much unless I'm the one being cryptic. Double-standards, ftw, yo.
no subject
*laugh* I just like being ze cryptic sometimes. It confuses people :D

Hey, I have to watch 3 and 4 before I can watch 5 and 6! And my Fakir icon is smexier :P. I need more of him, but I'm too afraid to look in case there are spoilers DX.
Ack, we need to talk! Either on IM or the phone or something. -_-
no subject
We've got our plans, don't worry. You'll have seen the rest of it by next week, and hopefully you'll be as enamored of it as I was.
I was going to call you tonight, but it was getting late ^^;;
no subject
Yay!! *is excited* And then I can run around and find/make Fakir icons! And Ahiru. I'll need her, too. ...Really tempted to use that last username and possibly find that icon to make it make sense XD
Eh, that's okay. I still need to ask Mommy to be a reference and I keep forgetting to call, ha ha ^^;
no subject
HOORAY! And I can use some of your icons!! ^____^
...I assume you mean my Mommy? I know she'll say yes, just give her a call :)
no subject
Yes! And you can help me find ones where you found them! ^^
Of course XD. Hopefully I'll remember to call even though my mother has been insanely annoying about it -_-;
no subject
Oooh, the new layout is purty! X3
I recommend joining
As for your music, are you watching the awesome PT AMV with that Swedish (or whatever language it is!) song?
no subject
Thanks!
Oooooh, yays! *goes to join communities* I think I'm officially Tutu obsessed ^^;;
Actually, I did see that AMV--which was how I first heard the song. And then I went and found the song so I could put it on a CD and actually listen to it :3 I'm completely addicted to that song :D

Sounds like fun at work... I love the last minute spring-upons!
no subject
Yeah...it was great, let me tell ya *rolls eyes*
no subject
Well, I'm sure work was grueling, but afterward you may have had a good laugh? Communication is a good thing and last-minute is never a good idea for stuff like that. Serves them right if they lost money. *done with preaching*
You may want to try this site for Princess Tutu fics. Haven't read any on here, but it's a site devoted to it.
no subject
*laugh* All things considered, it was a good night. Usually on Buffet Night we do our all-you-can-eat Chinese for $3.99, and we have a line all the way back to the bakery for the entire evening. So making pepperoni pizzas all night wasn't too terrible :)
:O Fakir... ♥
