Oy, I'm so glad it's Friday afternoon. This morning and yesterday were tough. Busy, which is good, but I was surrounded by well-meaning helpers who needed a lot of help, artists who apparently couldn't follow simple instructions (well, ok, one artist in particular), and difficult customers whose rep is on Nantucket at the moment. I swear, the next customer who keeps talking over me is getting disconnected! There were a couple who, if I could reach through the phone lines, would have gotten a good whack upside the head.
Since they only scheduled coverage until 2:00, and I didn't get to go to lunch until 1:15, I got a short lunch break today. Just long enough to go to Rite Aid to get my hair color (and a big bar of extra dark chocolate), and read a couple of chapters of Stephanie Plum while sipping an Izze Sparkling Pomegranate. I feel much better now. *g*
I wanted to get a fabulous new nail color, because I am bored with all the ones I own, and nothing was catching my eye. I am bored with *all* nail colors, apparently. I will have to make do with what I have, I guess. Maybe I'll paint my toenails blue again. That will cheer me up. Oh, there were some pretty ones, but nothing that I'd actually wear on my fingernails. Pale blue, dark purple, frosty pink. Colors that clash with everything I own.
Anyhoo. I'm feeling extra overworked and underappreciated today. Not one person here has remembered that tomorrow is my birthday. For you non-Leos, that is a mortal sin to we lionesses! *growl* I'm looking forward to a glass of wine and the season finale of Doctor Who this evening, and Lammas with the coven tomorrow night. Ooh, and the July 4th rained-out fireworks have been rescheduled for this Sunday, so they're my birthday fireworks now. *g*
