The fish I bought two weeks ago is dead; or almost there any way. I'm sure if I poke him, he'd swim around before going belly up again. Good thing about working in a pet store is the 40% discount I get on all items in the store. That's a cheap $0.55 goldfish withouth the discount. I don't know why he died, he's in a 10 gallon tank by himself and doesn't get over fed. I've seen him eat his food once (but only that one time) and if he's starved to death, it's his own damn stupid fault :-D
Alright, today was a good day. I got to visit my sister and found out she's moving to the city I live in. I figured since I was already in town, I may as well stop in at work, Sharla asked for my help so I got a 6 hour shift in today. Didn't get a break, though, but that's ok 'cause Subway is only a block away. Loaded Original Pizza subs own you! Come to think of it, that was the only thing I ate today.


More dumb stuff from a 17 year old version of myself that the 27 year old version my myself is not proud of.

Yesterday was pretty cool. I woke up and was getting ready to go to work at 1pm like Sharla told me to and she calls me. Now I don't have to go to work untl 2 so I've got an extra hour to just sit around and do absolutely nothing. 1:25 comes around and I figure I should eat or something because it's a 15 or 20 minute ride into town to the Pet Store. I left at 1:45 and got into the store just at 2pm. Sharla immediately had me cleaning mouse cages. I had to scoop shavings out of the cages and aquariums with mice in them and there was crap all in there. It was good fun.
Not to bore anybody with details, the rest of the night I was scraping algae out of tanks (I scraped about 13 of them) before I was informed that it was closing time. I thought Damn, time went by fast but probably only because I wasn't wearing a watch. So I'm giving birds and rodents their food and water for the night and these two girls show up. They (without permission) open the ferret cage behind me and take the ferret out. I didn't mind because these girls were cute, so I let them hold it while I was picking mouse doodoo and shavings out of the food in the cages.
The girls leave, I'm mopping floors and Sharla (the manager) asks me So, do you think you still want to work here? and I said Oh yeah. Sure so she said Good, here's your schedule and she began to laugh. Angela commented That's some way to hire somebody. So I got the job. I work 54 hours over the next two weeks at $8 and that is r0xoR.
Oh yeah, I found out from Angela that all the girls are older than me. Angela is 21 and she's the youngest, so go figure. The other girls are 22 to 25. The cutest of them all, Lisa, who I would have thought was 19 is actually 25, married and has two children. Damn. At least there's always one hot honey that comes into the store per day.

I dunno how this thing works. I'll pretend that I'm Tycho over at Penny-Arcade with teh L33T rant that he always has in store.
Is this thing supposed to be a "Dear fricking Diary"? I've never had one of those, too girly, thus the name of this "diary" is B33R. If you don't know what that means, then get the hell out of my blog.
I applied for a job at a local pet store a couple weeks ago and got a phone call for an interview a week later, it went really good so the manager lady called me back and got me to come in today for a trial shift. I don't know if I get payed for it, but it was cool. The only staff at that store are all female and mostly my age, which makes that place the coolest place to be. There's two people who are older, the manager and her #1 assistant girl person. The girls are all hot, but I don't think Sharla (the manager) likes it or would like it if I ever got too involved or close to either of the other staff.
Anyway, I had fun today. I cleaned fish tanks, scooped dead fish out of the tanks. Got to meet all the hot co-workers. Played with reptiles and fish... however I don't think that every day is like that. Today was one of the more busy days (but not the busiest, I've been informed) and it went pretty smooth. Kinda sucks that I'm not being payed for it. Oh well, I go back tomorrow for another 4 hour shift... which reminds me, that's less than 12 hours of sleep and I need that time to *gasp* sleep. So screw you all, I'm going to bed.

How's that for my first post?

OK, after posting this thing to the web I get confronted by this ugly pink web page. wtf is up with that? There's got to be some option around here to let me fully customized this thing. I'm off, again.
