Well, I checked the status of the package again tonight, and it finally shows up as being in CT! I’ll most likely get it on Monday.

I can’t wait! :D

It’s been so long since I’ve posted. I’ve been busy with getting school stuff settled, shopping, working, and trying to relax in between.

I got my draft schedule for Cross last week, and it was missing a course, and it had me enrolled in two classes I totally didn’t sign up for. I finally got that straightened out with a guidance counselor, and just need to talk to the ISSP coordinator when school starts again about my ISSP courses.

I went clothesshopping today; I got a couple new pairs of jeans, and two nice winter/fall shirts. I’m going to go back at some point soon and get more shirts and pants, but I’m still not sure when.

Oh! I also got my new phone. I ordered a Samsung Sync last week, and it showed up here yesterday! It’s one of the nicest phones of its kind that I’ve used. It’s got a nice, clean UI (with -awesome- sound effects), it’s light, small, sounds good on calls, etc. Also, it’s my first 3G phone, so that’s pretty exciting. I love how fast it is compared to my old phone.

Anyway, just thought I’d give you all an update. Hopefully, I’ll keep this blag going well through the school year.

Until next time. :)

For the past few days, I’ve been slowly getting better from that head cold I had last week. I’m finally down to the point where I just have the occasional cough or have to blow my nose. Woot!

I finished my internship at Yale on Thursday last week. I’m kinda bummed about not having to go in, but at least I’ve got a couple weeks to myself before school starts again.

Stop and Shop has been pretty calm this week, knock on wood. We’re starting a buncha stuff this week; new logo, colors, etc. The customer appreciation coupons came out today, and they weren’t yet active in the coupon database. I think that’s straightened out by now…hopefully.

Well, that’s all for now. I can’t think of anything else worth mentioning on here. Just felt like writing a quick update after my short absence. :)

Happy Monday! Yeah. I’m sitting in an office thinking of something to blag about.

The coming week should be pretty cool; Stop and Shop scheduled me for file maintenance all week (minus yesterday, I was working on the front end). And even though I’ve got a lot of mornings to work, it should be more relaxing than working as a cashier all day.

Speaking of yesterday, it’s time for a small rant. Well, more of a protip. Or maybe even just a point establishment. I can’t predict tax calculations on-the-fly, so don’t get mad if I tell you sonething’s $1.79, and it rings up $1.90. Also, don’t demand your money back from me after I’ve already rung the transaction out. That just makes me have to go get my drawer balanced out again. Finally, don’t be a bitch to me, demand the manager and be all sweet and nice when he shows up, then continue to bitch at me when he leaves.

Whew. :)

In other news, I’m getting another machine from that same person off Freecycle that gave me the Armadas (Armadai?). This is an IBM ThinkPad 600e; again, not the newest, but at least it’s something new to tinker with. Still not sure what I’m going to do with it, but I’ll see when it shows up.

I’ve got Windows 2000 on the Armada 1750, and just for lulz, I installed XP on the 1598DMT. Note this is a Pentium 1 at 266 MHz. Sure, it’s slow as hell, but it’s fun watching XP on such an old machine.

I think I beat John (see blogroll) in the length of a single post typed entirely on an iPod touch. Not like we’re in a competition or anything. (I’d totally win though, I’ve definitely got more untold rants than he ever will)

So, that’s it for now. Thanks for reading. :)
