One more day...

Today was another fun day at work! lol Just kidding. Work was very long today. No customers and we didn't get our stock in until later in the day. We did get some exciting stock in though! You may wonder what could possibly be exicting??? Well that would be more Ed Hardy and Affliction shirts! For those of you that don't know these are VERY popular shirts. They also have jeans and hats but our store just has the shirts so far. Not only are they so popular they start out at about 70.00 dollars each! OUCH! Now for those people that choose not to pay the 70+ they simply walk in and walk out with shirts aka steal them. Now they may take 1 or 2 or our latest person took 14! Yes 14 shirts! Now some people I'm sure are wondering how in the world do they keep stealing these? Well let me tell you...We sensor each and every one of these things(well until today but more on that later) and they are where you can see them so the people know they are there. Anyway the reason why they keep getting away is because where I work they thought the best place for these shirts is by the door. Yes people right by the door! All these people have to do is walk in and walk right back out. Yes we have security but most have cars waiting for them and are gone before you know it. Now today when we got more of these shirts in we sensored about half and then ran out of sensors. We asked our manager what he wanted us to do and he said go ahead and put them out because they are going to get stolen any way. We went ahead and put them out but seems to me it would be better to keep them in the back and wait. Guess not.

Well tomorrow I leave to go to Arkansas. Yay!!! I can't wait. I need a mini vacation. Right now I'm working on finishing washing and drying everything I need to take and then I'm off to pack my bags. I'm going to try and get to bed early because I have to get up extra early tomorrow because we are getting transfers in at our store. That is going to be SO much fun...not. This will be my last post until I get back so have a good weekend and I will post when I'm back!

Being sick is no fun...

Well for about the past week I have had a sore throat and just felt bad. It takes a lot to get me to go to the doctor but on Friday when I still wasn't feeling any better I went. Shocking!!! :) I went to one of those emergency clinic's and I waited maybe 5 mins before going back to a room. The nurse did all that fun stuff...temp, blood pressure, pulse, do you do this and do you do that. Of course I'm the perfect lil angle so it didn't take her long before she left. :) Next the doctor comes in and she is very nice. She looks in my ears and in my mouth(say ahhhh) and then she wants to do a throat swab. Now most people that know me happen to know that I gag very easily so I'm sitting there waiting for the nurse to come swab my throat. I start praying that I don't gag too bad and then.... Anyway she came in and did it and yes I survived! 10 mins later in comes the doctor with the verdict. Drum roll please.....I have an upper respatory infection AND tonsillitis. YUCK!!! She gave me two prescriptions for some get well drugs. My antibiotic is a HUGE horse pill. Takes lots of water to get that one done! Then my other med is a nice med size pill that goes down just fine. I have to takes both of these twice a day for 10 days. It has been 3 days since I started taking them and I already feel lots better!

I'm looking forward to this weekend. I will have sat, sun, and mon off from work! It has been a while since I have had a weekend off so I'm excited! Also not only am I off but I will have a mini vacation in Bella Vista, Arkansas I leave fri afternoon for the long 4 hour drive there to get the key to a house that my family and I will stay in. We did this back when I was younger and it was lots of fun! I will try and take pics of our trip and post some here.

Well it is now 11pm and I stayed up WAY to late last night so I'm going to bed early. Have a great week everyone!
