Sign Of The Times

****

Hey! They put the diary back to normal. Thank you diary
gods! I didn't like it the other way. But, I wasn't going
to complain.

I had the best of intentions when it came to writing on
Thanksgiving, but it didn't happen. Instead, I passed out
cold on the couch while Snookums cleaned the entire
kitchen by himself. I was really surprised. He cleaned
everything, put the leftovers away all on his own. When
earlier in the day he told me he wasn't going to touch a
single dish. I don't know what came over him, but I like
it :) I went to bed after he finished, because I had to be
to work early. I think he felt sorry for me. I was on my
feet all day Wednesday, cooked all day Thursday and then I
had to be on my feet all day again yesterday. Maybe he was
showing me some compassion?

"Pink" Friday as we call it at Victoria's Secret was
crazy, but not nearly as bad as last year. I thought it
was a lot worse last Pink Friday. I wasn't the only one
who thought that either. Because of all the whispers of a
recession and then the oil prices and food prices going
up, I think the company took into account that there
wasn't going to be as much indiscriminate spending, so our
numbers weren't as high as last year. I'm glad they didn't
set us up for failure. There isn't anything worse than
working your ass off and still not making your segments.
Last Pink Friday I had 13 credit cards, yesterday I only
had 4. I still was #1, but that's a definite sign of the
times. I can't blame them for not wanting to sign up for
another card. I don't need anymore credit cards myself.
So, when I'm asked in stores I immediately shut them down.
Even though I know how that feels. Then I feel the need to
explain that to them. In apology.

When I got home last night, Snookums let me go straight to
bed, because my feet were killing me. He brought me
dinner, while Kiki laid in bed with me (and proceeded to
eat my dinner). Kiki got bored and left around 6pm and I
fell asleep at that point. Snookums didn't wake me up,
either. I woke up about an hour ago (8:30am) and I feel
really good :) I suppose I should after 14 hours of sleep.

I need to go make my family something to eat. After
spending the day with Daddy, I'm not sure what they ate
yesterday. I'm sure they did though. The baby at least,
helped herself to my dinner and Annie is old enough to
forage :) I work again today, but only for 5 hours. I'm
thinking today is going to go slower than yesterday (even
though yesterday was twice as long of a day) because we
won't have the wall to wall crowd to contend with). It
should still be fun, though. Ciao.
