I think I'm allergic to customers

I just thought I would update this thing before the holidays...and before I fall asleep.

I forgot how nuts a grocery store gets around Christmas. I spent my entire shift today re-filling milk, eggnog, eggs, etc. Every 10 minutes, my work would be undone by these bloody vultures I call customers. I just hope this was the mad rush we had all feared, because I work 930-630 tomorrow and really don't feel like answering stupid questions all day long.

It sucks working Christmas Eve because I don't get holiday pay, and normally I would be scrambling to get to church...but this year, Forest Grove has their Christmas Eve service at 10:30 PM!?! Whaaaa? It's either that, or wake up early on Christmas Day for the same service, drive out to Dalmeny for service for the first time in a looooong time, or go to a different church just for that night. None of these options are particularly appealing at the moment, but I suppose we'll go to Elim for a night.

Oh well, at least I have Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Year's Eve and New Year's Day off. Speaking of New Year's, are there any plans out there? I'm already invited to a party where I know I will be the only sober person there..so if there's any other sober options out there, I'm all ears...

Finished my Christmas shopping after my shift. I normally save it all for Christmas Eve just for the adrenaline rush, but knowing in advance that I'd be working forced my hand.

Still waiting for marks...I bet I wont get any until I get back to class...which is coming soon, so maybe I should get some thesis work done...next week...

I would say Happy Holidays to you all, but since there are so many people (politicians) annoyingly insisting on this politically correct greeting...I will instead wish you all the traditional Merry Christmas!

I'll be on here before the New Year to wish you a happy one of those.
