Boo! for missing hte Mini Maker Fair.
We had an ALL Store Meeting this morning. Learned some new stuff, Best Buy makes some really funny videos about new info (not all of them but the more recent ones are especially good). Learned new info about my department
and
was named co-MVP for my department! Which translates to these rewards points we get (although I forgot to ask if ours were split or if we each got the full points). The other MVP was the guy who was hired with me and just hired on as full time.
In fact the store manager said he'd never had a situation where 2 people were hired on the same day, did their new employee training together, and were hired as full time on the same day. Then someone piped up "And were named MVP on the same day".
And another guy who was in our training was named MVP for his department.
My Halloween costume didn't really come together the way I wanted and I realized now a better idea - by the cheap outdated electronics and go as the Ghost of Technology Past, but I'll save that for next year.
I have a cold. I was thinking about not going to work. But at about 1 , one of our cats made a strange meow. , dilated eyes and couldn't walk. The er vet say all his lymph nodes are swollen and he is dizzy. Nothing to tell with out lab work. So off to my vet in the am. Nathaniel is in the big crate and safe for the night.
Beth, I hope you and Nathaniel are feeling better soon.
If anyone is awake yet, can I have a little procedure~ma for this morning?
askye, congrats on the MVP! Go, you. Clearly it is the right job for you.
Procedure~ma. sj.
Kitty~ma, Nathaniel.
Thanks. I should have asked for traffic ~ma too. I guess everyone went to to work late after staying up to watch the Red Sox.
Did I tell y'all that my mom and I saw Dan Savage on TV and now she has a crush on him? So even though he never became a priest he still sort of gets to be Father WhatAWaste.
Which is funny since I think I introduced his column to her while we were watching one of those really McGiveresque cooking shows, you know the ones, with like, a sprig of parsley, some caviar and a shoestring, or something else impossible, and I just blurt out "Chefs make me crazy...they've eaten all the normal food already, so now they are like those guys that can only get off clutching their bathmats that write to Dan Savage." And then, the longest silence ever broke out.
Nathaniel was supposed to b e my 20 yr cat. He was not supposed to get cancer at 3/4 yrs old
we are going to d o what we can , but fuck this hurts.
