The unholy demon is a fucking idiot....

Let me just start out by saying that..

Would you like examples?

....with pleasure:

Evidence A) She didn't bring a drawer down to music even though she knew it was busy and they didn't have enough registers. One of the cashiers mistakingly started ringing on the drawer while there wasn't anything in it. The she started yelling at me that she didn't have a DAS so she didn't know another drawer had to go down there. Even though she was supposed to stay downstairs and do returns at the main and do none of the swaps. HI-larious cause it's her mistake to fix. She also apparently doesn't know what the fuck "all the drawers in music are sups" mean. She just kept going "but why?" and "Hmm..that's funny" No matter what I said she wasn't getting that everyone was ringing on everyone elses drawer cause they don't have enough drawers. I had to keep repeating it to her and finally I just grabbed her and yelled "I'm not ASKING you..I'm TELLING you!"

Evidence B) It took her 5 hours to look at the fucking DAS. By that point she had missed her break. She just assumed she was going on break at 6 and I left at 7. The look on her face when I said goodnight to her was PRICELESS. Then she started yelling at me cause I didn't tell her to go on her break. My reply: "Why...am I your fucking babysitter?" I was busy swapping out drawers all day because she was so busy twidling her thumbs. I didn't even offer to stay late. Oh..and I left her a bunch of flashes cause I had to scadattle out of there considering by the time I finished all the drawers I was doing it was 6:45. ok...maybe not scadattle I was hanging out in music talking to Mike for about an hour. I COULD have done the flashes...I just didn't feel like it.

Evidance C) and this is the best one...Liz REAMED her out for forgetting about the Dunbar change. I couldn't help but smile at myself.

I feel so torn. I feel really mean but then I think about all the hell she puts all of us through and then I almost feel like she deserves it once in a while.

16 reasons why I love the new James Bond movie..

So I went to go see the new james Bond movie a few days ago with a group of people from work....essentially 4 guys and me. lol As if I wasn't already a big enough Bond fan, here are the 15 reasons why I absolutely loved Casino Royale...

1) The Opening sequence is in Black and White....::squeal::

2) The song and opening credits....awesome mix of new with an old school touch of what the songs used to be....even if there were no dancing naked women to be found...the animation was amazing.

3) I was sitting next to the best people ever. lol Both times

4) Story.....kinda realiztic enough where it's still James Bond-ified but you could still believe it would happen

5) Daniel Craig.....Awesomely hot in short shorts

6)Aston Martin......::drool::

7)Actually made the transition from Baacarat to Poker work

8) Daniel Craig shows flashes of sheer Connery in his acting....he's got the swagger..

9) Did I mention the bad guy cried blood tears?

10) It rewarded you for reading the books....super big yea!

11) Even the bond girls were good this time around

12) the fact that while watching the opening credits I freaked out that Giancarlo Gianinni was in the movie.....Who else would get that excited....Honestly..

13) have I mentioned Daniel Craig?

14) and his treasure trail?

15) and the fact that he is naked in the movie?

16) Does there really need to be any other reason?

Ok...the last one isn't really a reason....but seriously....one of the best movies I've seen in a long time..and definately the best bond movie in a long time....Go see this movie..now...right now..

Now..

Badass Defused

A) There are certain moments in every girls life where we get to have a cool badass line.

B) At said moment we should be allowed to bask in that glory.

C) I had one of those moment a few nights ago

D) and then promptly fell on my face

How did this all happen? Well one night at work one of my co-workers said to me "If you weren't dating someone I would take you on." Not out...mind you...on. For the first time in my life I got to do the badass thing and look all sultry and go.. "You couldn't handle me." Ok...so not terribly badass but it was kinda cool. Not that I needed to point out to him that if I were single when I had started at B&N I probably would have pursued the one super hot co-worker I have. lol Yeah....I'm lamzz0rz. Sad.....I can't even spell that in l33t. lol Grrrr... Anyway back to the story.....After my moment in glory I proptly walked up the stairs to go to the break room....at which point I hit the top step with my foot and fall FLAT ON MY FACE.

Yes....laugh....please laugh.....my moment in the sun snatched away by the fact that I'm so clumsy i trip over my own two feet.

I think maybe I should just stick to what I'm good at from now on......

Takin it old school.....

I'm probably dating myself but I grew up watching wrestling. And not just ANY wrestling...I grew up in the hayday of the best wrestling ever...the 80's. I grew up watching Ricky Steamboat and Gorilla Monsoon and Bob Orton and the Undertaker when he was still young and Ric Flair when it was still concievable that he was the nature boy. My walls were covered with posters of the Iron Shiek and Sgt. Slaughter and Jake the Snake and Andre the Giant.

These guys told me to look both ways while crossing the street and take my vitamins and be nice to other people. Fuck...Sgt. Slaughter was a freakin GIJOE!

But of course as anyone who grew up in the 80's knows...there were two men who completely ruled WWE merchadising....Hulk Hogan (when he wasn't a bright scary orange and just mearly kinda tanned)... and the legendary Rowdy Roddy Piper. Say what you will about wrestling but I'll bet you talk to anyone who grew up in that time frame and those are the two names that get repeated over and over. These two men were the faces of wrestling...and polar opposides as well. Where Hulk was the epitome of good behavior and telling kids to eat their veggies, piper was always causeing trouble. Brash....loudmouthed....and controversial....he was what kids who were trying to look past the goody-two exterior of Hogan wanted in their wrestler...a man who could talk shit and could back it up.

I won't lie....I was a Hulkamaniac. I had Hulk sheets, Hulk slippers (you guys know the ones...the ones with the hard pastic heads that you could beat someone to death with), Hulk dolls, Hulk puzzles and even a Hulk lunchbox...BUT....and to this day I will still say this to anyone...I was a Piper fan. Hulk was cool...but Piper was AWESOME. A badass who could back his words with a fight that didn't consist of the same three moves each time. I'm writing this only cause I just got the Piper box set today and even just holding it in the store I got a little misty eyed at the countess hours I spent watching Piper fight and boxtops cut out just to get that plastic cheap-ass Piper memorabilia from the cereal box.

I'm not saying much just this.....Hogan was cool....but Piper was the man....

I do love them Rangers!

Ok....so...I'm writing this extreamly hyper so I pardon two things: My bad spelling and grammer and my staccato sentances.. that being said I will have to say that I've had the BEST time tonight. i just got home from a hockey game. ok this may not seem like a lot BUT it was my very first game at MSG...hell it was my very first non flyers game. And especially one where I'm not rooting for the opposing team.

ok I'm going way to fast I have a headache now..I'll start from the begining.

Danielle...my Bookseller/cash office mafia sister and all around amazing human being invited me to go see a rangers game tonight. The rangers aren't my absolute favorite team..they are maybe my third or fourth favorite team in the league..but I do love them. So of course I said yes..I mean come on...taking the train to NY, going to a completely new stadium and getting to actually root for a team I love and support...this was gonna be great. Then she adds the punch...they were gonna play the NJ Devils. For those of you that dont know....I HATE the devil's with a passion unbridled. This isn't exactly true....I adore MOST of the guys on the team...Brian Gianta, Patrick Elias and one or two more guys....but I hate HATE hate hate hate hate hate Martin Brodour. Hate him....oh my god I hate the man. I hate him as a player.....and tonight I got to see just how much. But I'm getting ahead of myself again.

So...I picked up Danielle from work and we went back to her house where we made what can only be called the greatest fritatta known to man. lol Peppers and eggs and potatoes and onions....oh yum! on top of sourdough bread. I pull out the jersey I'm gonna wear tonight....the leaf's Brian Leetch jersey. Why not a rangers jersey? Cause I still gotta show love to my boys man! I figured this was a great comprimise...I still got to wear the jersey of my faovrite team...and it still had one of the best loved men who played for the rangers on it.

So anyway....We hop in the car..sandwiches in tow to eat on the train. get to the train station and have to go all the way back because we forgot the tickets...hop back in the car...go back home grab them then go all the way back..and yea! our spot was still empty..run out with maybe 5 minutes to spare and realize that the parking machine doesn't take coins

Ok....will someone explain to me why the princeton junction parking machine only takes dollars?

But anyway...make it to the station and get on the train. I love train rides. It was so much fun...and MUCH easier than driving into the city. Get to the game where the seats were amazing...just about center ice with a perfect view of everyone. amazing. The crowd was amazing, everything was just amazing. I've never been to an NHL game where there was so much love and fun. Maybe cause I've always rooted for the opposing team but still. Everyone just laughed and joked with each other...it was awesome. I left with a shit-load of merchandise and not only that.....BUT THE RANGERS BEAT THE DEVILS!!! Best 5 minutes of my life was the start of the 3rd period when the rangers scored three...count em' three unanswered goals to take the lead. And Brodour got a pentaly for Delay of game...cause he's a fucking cheater! And now I don't have to sneak into work tommorow fearing my bosses laughter. hehe Me and Danielle can hold our heads up high. Yea!! hehe...I just had just the best time tonight. wow I'm starting to drag ass now but it was completely worth it. hehe I'm gonan go crash now! peace out! hehe
