Let me rip... tear... KILL....

Nice quote. XD

I'm angry. I'll post why later, because I really need to get to sleep. Big thanks to Nigel for letting me vent to him.

I hate people SO much.

(By the way, Ian, one of yours is done, and I'm working on the second. With luck, I should have it done by tomorrow, actually. I know you said you can't send payment until Friday, but no rush, just so you know. They'll be waiting. ^_^)

I hate people so much.

Say "Merry Christmas" and the non-Christian or non-religious ones are offended. Say "Season's Greetings" and the religious ones are offended. I'm sick of offending half the population. From now on, I'm just gonna be all "GO FUCK YOURSELF" and offend everyone. Hmph.

I'm still angry about last night (it'll come when I'm more awake), but pretty excited that I woke up on my own... and heard my phone ring (good thing, as I'd forgotten to plug it in). Spoke to Phill briefly but I have to call him back later, as he was -- and I think he still is -- on a tour.

Ever wake up with a headache? And it won't go away during the day? I think today's gonna be one of those days, groan. At least it's a day off. :::goes back to hiding under her covers:::

Last night's mess

Excuse me, but I don't think it sounds like such a big deal anymore. It still sucks, though.

There was a fire at work yesterday. Sometime after nine, I was with Eka behind the register and I asked her if she smelled burning wood, because I did. She didn't, but before long, the smell got stronger. We thought one of the old registers finally died, but the smell wouldn't go away. We actually had to clear out the store because we didn't know what it was. Everything behind the register seemed fine, and there were no outlets or electrical things anywhere else (aside of the lights but they were all okay) to catch fire; there was nothing visible. We thought, then, that it was something in the wall, especially because there's ongoing construction above us, but the smell was strongest near Register 1, where Eka was standing. We couldn't figure it out.

I got kinda dizzy and went to go to the back but Fernando flipped out and everyone thought I'd fainted so they called loads of security and no one believed I didn't faint. Another reason to like, KILL Fernando.

One of the security guards found the problem. One of the barely-visible lights had fallen out of its place and onto a box, which overheated and caught fire. It was in the bottom corner of the counter, on the other side of the counter from where Eka was standing. We closed the store for a half-hour or so. In the meantime, since there was no one around to mess everything up, I tried to clean. No one bothered to help me, though. :/

I need to get back to knitting now. And laundry. And stuff.

Oh, and I lit one of the candles Naty gave me so now it smells -- just subtly enough -- of cinnamon in here. <3
