Plei! Lily is the cutest! Those are such sweet pictures!
The job is okay. I like the customers, but I'm not sold yet on working on commision. Since I'm still in training, I haven't really been given the opportunity to do all that much, so I'm just about breaking even, once I buy lunch. Plus, I'm pretty terrible at talking people into spending thousands of dollars on pictures, mostly because I think $5000 is the most ridiculous price ever. And the makeup thing has been difficult because they were apparently expecting a large shipment of makeup, but in the meantime I was forced to use like, one tube of lip gloss, three shades of foundation, and q-tips for applications. Also, they apparently have incredibly quick employee turnover, which makes me a little nervous. Which sounds like a lot of complaining, but really, so far, so good.
People spend that much?? Oy. But I'm glad it's not completely sucking.
I will absolutely include a weekend, Perkins. The real difficulty is going to be talking myself into going back to NY, where I will know winter awaits.
And I'm going on a Caribbean cruise at the end of September, since I found a crazy good deal.
I've missed you guys! So I feel kind of bad saying I need to go, but it's 2:40, and I think I have a bath in my future, and I'm exhausted.
So, night night! Sweet dreams!
People spend that much??
No. That's pretty much the initial price, and they work their way down from there. Most people end up spending around $500, and walk out with a bad case of sticker shock, and, like, one picture.
Plei, remember the jewelry box I linked to yesterday? I found someone who sells it in black and who has a better approval rating, so I think I am going to get one: [link]
I like the black one more, and I really like the little travel jewelry box that comes with. I need one of those.
Speaking of travel, I just printed my boarding pass for my flight, which is in under 10 hours. Maybe I should go to bed soon.
Skipping a lot and poking my head to post that, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is Lyra Jane and her DH's anniversary. Happy day for them both! With lots of wishes for a wonderful year.

Hi Nilly!
The black leather is elegant and quite pretty.
