banner day or yay I'm done and never let me have a shopping cart

[cornerofmadness]

I AM DONE WITH WORK UNTIL JAN.!!!!!!

Grades are in. WHEE. And can you believe the student center sent me someone to advise today? We're not even supposed to BE there other than to put in grades. They wanted me to sign him into my overfull class without any prereqs. I spoke to the guy (non-trad) and asked what he wanted to do and that's the one thing with older students, they're usually easier to handle, not as much attitude. I put him in the prereq class instead.

Then I hit the laundromat and instead of sitting in the library (which was a freakshow today, probably because it was freaking 60 degrees) I hit Wally World for some crap I forgot to buy (still forgot to buy saline). Let me say this: I hate shopping. I hate shopping Wally most of all and I MOVE when i'm in there. I hate slow shoppers. They make me insane.

So...I rammed an Amish kid. Gee, I felt bad about that one but we came around corners and boom. Next aisle over, I nail his dad's cart (and bruise my belly on the handle of the cart). I manage to get to the other side of the store, come around the corner and bam, slam into a student (I failed her). Sigh. Go into the frozen food and get T-Boned by my friend, the Indian Math prof. I'm lucky to have survived. As long-term friends know I HAVE broken toes running my own self over in this wal-mart.

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Bake all day. Oh, wait....

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i'm going to take Naru for his first check up only 1500 miles late...i suck

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

I'm at 49,000 miles and still need to do my 30,000 miles check up on Connor. *siiiiigh*

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

nods but that's not quite as bad. The initial oil in cars is the 'break in' oil and it's not quite the same as regular weight oil

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Ahhhh. Gotcha.

[enemytosleep]

You suck. *is jealous*

Glad you get a well deserved break though. Yay!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

nya nyay nyah na! wiggles backside at you.

that's our compensation for crappy salaries and students, we have SO much time off

[sp23.livejournal.com]

Ahahaha! You shouldn't be allowed to drive a cart in W-World.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i'm a total hazard

[havocmangawip.livejournal.com]

Maybe one of those LITTLE ones with two tiers that grocery stores have. I'm not too dangerous with those. The big ones? Watch out. It's not that I'm going too fast, it's that I'm distracted!

Congratulations on a well deserved break and holiday!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

well i was going to say that too and forgot. I'm not actually IN wally world. I'm probably either in Placid's world right now or in Amestris trying to make Roy do things

thanks.

[havocmangawip.livejournal.com]

The real world is overrated!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

it truly is

[sillymagpie.livejournal.com]

Congratulations on surviving the semester and grading. Is there perhaps a less trafficked and less dangerous shopping center anywhere near you? Or can you go in full plate armor?

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

actually the walmart IS it. i should prehaps pay attention to the real world and not the one inside my head

[a2zmom.livejournal.com]

Yeah for being done! Boo for cart torture.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i'm my own worst enemy

[despina-moon.livejournal.com]

I hate shopping, too. WITH A PASSION!!

Well, with all your time off, you can write for us poor working suckers!

Edited because LJ SUCKS!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

it's one of my least favorite things to do. I don't mind grocery shopping much or book shopping but as for the rest. shudders.

hmm that reminds me i do need to post up that saiyuki story i did for springkink

[despina-moon.livejournal.com]

OMG, YES!! Post that.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i'll probably do it tomorrow

[ozma914.livejournal.com]

Well, *you're* one person I want to avoid while shopping!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i can't be trusted

[ozma914.livejournal.com]

You'd run me right down -- I'd be too slow for you!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thanks

YAY to holiday break!! And I see you are sharing our 'unseasonal' weather *bah!*

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

it got cold again. Pick a damn temperature and stay there. the bouncing around gives me headaches, literally

[0-mother-0.livejournal.com]

Me too - and sinus gunk and a million other unpleasant things. It's tough having bi-polar weather (reminds me too much of my parents...).
