Almost time to head out for the second day of training. Kelley (the woman I was training with yesterday) thought that I'd be put on cash today. This is somewhat of a scary prospect, because the only thing that terrifies me more than cash would be drivethrough & cash, but I was watching Kelley do things yesterday and it doesn't seem to bad. She also made a fair number of mistakes so I don't feel the need to be completely perfect, which is good because I'd actually be freaked out if I was.

When I get back today, I definitely need to finish up my Killea chapter of Spirit Wars. I'm pretty much finished, which is awesome. Yes, the deadline was yesterday...I would have reached it if we hadn't gone to Ryan and Nico's to watch Monty Python. But one day off is still pretty damn good. I wonder how Shannon is doing.

I also need to catch up on my NANA and Digimon Savers, both downloading them and watching. Also, I just got this live-action Korean series called Goong, based off a manwha that I saw discussed over at ANN.com. Looks interesting, so I must give it a watch too.

And Margaret and I really need to get a move on Sailor Moon Classic. Because it's long and taking up much computer room.

Back from a rather crazy first day on cash. It went pretty well, I think...one complaint about slow service but it was from a tour guide who was with a bus of old people and had many of them here at Tim's ordering sandwiches and soups and stuff that's far more complicated to get than coffee...and more difficult to ring up. I think I'm getting an okay handle on how the cash register works, but I'm still not quite as comfortable with it as I am with making coffee (that's easy). Getting better at recognizing which donut is which though!

My feet are so sore. I actually ended up not getting any break, even though I should have, but I didn't see a good opening and didn't ask, so it's my fault I know. But I didn't mind too too much, because as much experience with stuff that I can get the better.

The highlight of the day however was when I split my pants XD Because the pants I got yesterday were too snug but they didn't have the next size up, so I made due. Until I bent over too far and...bye bye butt seem XD They managed to eventually find me a bigger pair of pants though, which fit much better, so that won't happen again.

I still need to get my second blouse. I meant to ask about it, but then got distracted. Oops.

Now, time to enjoy the afternoon, which so far is one of the things I like best about this job, not having to be at work for 8 hours. Of course it means I don't get as much money, but I suppose I'll live with that.

Edit: To-do list for the day ^_^

- laundry
- shower
- groceries
- type up and send off Killea chapter

New icons for Noel and Emmeline, I'm rather pleased with how the former came out. I need to get more images however if I ever want to do more for Emmeline. Gilbert is up next, which should be fun since I have a ton of images for making those ^_^

I'm going in alphabetical order by username, in case anyone cares. Poor Patience is shafted as always XD

So, finally had success in getting impatiens for my gargoyle hanging pot. I got some lovely pink ones, dubbed Audrey IV, once again after Little Shop of Horrors. Hopefully Audrey IV will do better than Audrey III ;_;

I also got a chives plant which I'm not worried about killing because I don't think you CAN kill chives, they're pratically weeds half the time. But yummy weeds.

Now time to watch some NANA, because I actually watched half of ep 6, and now I have 7 and 8. And then I'll have enough to burn another CD and get it off my computer.

Might watch some Goong too, to see what it's like.

Edit: And yay, Jacques finally realized that my May cheque was never deposited and will actually do that now. This is good, considering it's June and all.

Okay, caught up on Nana, yay. I really didn't care much for episode 6, because it really was too much of the exact same thing episode 1 was. As far as startings go, this anime doesn't have the best. If I didn't love the manga so much, I probably would have given up on it actually. But now the story is really getting going and that's exciting.

I'm still somewhat worried about the anime being forced to end differently than the manga because it might catch up to what ever point the manga is at now (though it is much farther ahead in Japan than in the English release, that much I know, since the first live-action movie went past the English release). But hopefully that won't happen. Because that would be sad, because generally every time I've seen an anime do that it really has decreased my enjoyment of said manga. Pretear would be an exception, but since that was pretty much two completely different stories with the same characters (more or less), it's not quite the same case I suppose.

I'll watch some Goong tomorrow. That should be fun.
