Busy day, downtown for an interview in name only, the guy took one look at me and went ahead and told me that I shouldn't cover for the other guy that slacks off. And I filled out paperwork.
Got a nametag (licence # tag) engraved at the Fairview mall ($10), picked up some library comics while waiting for said engraving, then picked up some work/cargo pants at Marks work warehouse (about $45), then got some steel toed black boots, very awesome with their electrical insulation too, like a utility belt for my feet (probably like $70) and I got some new socks because seriously, my heels get cold- not really, but I need new socks.
And I got yogurt, pizza, and juice.
So I'm back to no money- hope this work thing tomorrow goes well.
I like running all over (by which I mean driving), running errands and whatnot. It's cool, time with my radio and a sense of purpose. Plus there's that degree of problem solving involved, figuring the most effiecient routes, places most likely to have what you're looking for, all that stuff.
I was originally going to hop back into the car at Don Mills station, go to Key Man Engravables at the Scarborough Town Centre- but then realized Fairview Mall, where I was currently parked, PROBABLY had one of it's one. I didn't even come CLOSE to the Scarborough Town Centre today.
Allowed myself to be super distracted this evening, I took forever getting to my comic reviews, stopping after only the two because I do have to make sure I'm in bed, rested and organized so I can get to work tomorrow.
First days at work. Yup, very similar to Exam Days in that I will probably wake up a lot during the night, checking to see if it's time to get up or if I've slept 30 years too late.
I forget how long Rip Van Winkle slept.
I keep forgetting to write this down, it's a short joke for my set:
"I find different things funny than a lot of people, I've got a bit of an off beat sense of humour."
(Then I hold as if I were waiting for laughs in response to me saying something funny)
"See? I was expecting laughter there."
Alternatively, if someone actually DOES laugh during the space I left open, I can say: "REALLY? No one was supposed to laugh there."
Just a quick gag, but I like it. I'm not liable to forget that one, it's been in my head for a while actually, but I can almost sort of relax now that it's written down.
Unless now that it's down I totally forget about it, and can't find it later going through my archives...
It's fine, it'll be fine, I need to get ready for bed.
