Some of us were working, or reading with our families. We let you have the Precious. You're too old to be - oh, forget it, you sneak. I'm jealous, that was mine.

Boy am I exhausted. Work was - well, it was a mess. See, the driver who was supposed to work until 12:30 and close the store decided he needed the night off, and the idiotic second assistant manager in charge of messing things up decided that was a good idea. Only to find that for some reason, no one wanted to stick around that late on a Saturday night. And everyone had a good excuse, too - one had a farewell party to attend, one had to be up at 4 am tomorrow, I had church, another just had a baby and wanted to get back to his wife... basically, the guy with the lamest excuse got stuck with it. So he whined for the next five hours about it. And, we had no deliveries - I made $10 in tips. On Saturday night. It was pathetic.

Now I'm tired, but more relaxed; we made chocolate chip cookies and read another chapter. I do love Connie Willis! And church is only 12 hours away. I really enjoy church these days, it gives me a feeling of recharging my spiritual batteries, of losing a lot of my worries and such. Kind of like a hot bath and chocolate cookie for the soul.

(sigh!) What can I say, I lead a very dull life.

Still 5 more Preciouses to go before the big quadruple-Precious.

Sorry work was such a mess... here's a pretty spring sunset to help you relax...
