Welcome Home, Watch Out For Those Stairs!

So my dad went home from the hospital yesterday (at least that was the plan as he sat on his hospital bed in street clothes while talking to me on the phone). I would think that if he wasn't home, my mother would have called but who knows. I'll double check tonight. He has an enlarged heart, an eye that doesn't want to stay open (he's going to the opthamologist for that bad boy) and they think he had mild congestive heart failure. Lovely. At least he's at home. His terror dog missed him so much. I'll be going out there in a couple weeks to see him.

I mentioned here that my inlaws have the stairs from hell in their house. Peanut was chugging around the kitchen yesterday whilst my MIL, SIL-not really, niece and Monkey Boy were eating lunch. She went towards the gate blocking the front steps (appx 8 steps), someone said no to her and she proceeded to take off with absolutely NO CLEARANCE FROM THE TOWER! She propelled forward so hard that she knocked the gate over, went forward and rolled down the stairs. Please don't hate me people, she's ok, but it literally took 5 minutes to type that sentence. All I saw was her legs go up in the air and I heard a couple thunks. Linds (my SIL-not really)heard thunks and looked up in time to see her at the bottom of the stairs with that look that says WTF Just happened? My MIL moved at warp speed (Mach 4 if you will) and got her before she turned right and went down 4 more steps to concrete. I think that Peanut has a bruised ego, if anything. She clearly has inherited my memory problems though. She's almost knocked the gate down a half dozen more times. They have to learn the hard way but good Lord, it's hard on Mama too! Sheesh.




We're going to the Wild game tonight w/ my BIL and SIL-not really (thanks guys!) This will be my first Wild game and I am so excited. Hopefully I can talk the husband into getting me an authentic jersey. I'll wear my NorthStars one and probably lose my voice but oh well!

This, That and The Other

I can already tell that Thanksgiving and Christmas are going to suck ass even more than it normally would at my job. Last night, a guy was telling me how much he gave me, how much he was supposed to get back and THEN told me what order to give it back to him in. Um? Sir? I'm not a twit, ok, I am a twit, but I'm not an idiot. Ok, sometimes I can be. Like that time I moved up to Wisconsin in the middle of a blizzard from nice, warm Tucson, AZ for a dumb boy and we broke up less than two months later. Yeah that sucked but my point is: I've been in retail, just about every job one could have except store manager, for about oh, 19 years. I think I know what I'm doing when it comes to giving change back. Don't talk to me like I'm a 16 yr old kid who's working his first job and doesn't give a shit what kind of work ethic he has. I care about you as a customer but when you're a dick to me and pissing off everyone in my line so they are dicks to me ? Well,

I know of no one who agrees with me that Jason Mewes is hot. This is a bad example and this is definately NOT hot. That's ok though. I remember the good, forget the bad. I make no excuses for my taste*. For fans of Clerks , Chasing Amy , Dogma , Jay and Silent Bob , etc , check it out: P.S. I've been working 'til 11 or midnight most nights so I'm pooped. I'll blog more. I promise. Was I missed though? * Or lack thereof to some people
