Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays.

First I must apologize.

Sorry I haven’t been writing much in my journal lately.

Jessica came home for the Christmas break on the 16th, and is here until the 8th. To sum it up: I’ve been spending a lot of time with her and working, instead of writing in my Blog. Bad Bad Andy. Yeah.. I know. I’m sorry.

So anyway, Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays/Insert Special Day Generic Wish here to everyone of my blog readers.

As to gifts this year that I got my family:

Jessica: $52 Build A Bear Cat and a Promise ring.
Mom: $78 Puzzle Holder.
Adam: $12 ‘Brother’ mug.
Dad (the hardest one to shop for): $7 Dark Chocolate South Bend Chocolate Factory Cherry Cordials.

Over all, out of all the presents I wish I’d given my dad something a bit better because it feels pretty cheap. I may hand him $20 and tell him to use it to some coral or something that he wants at the new coral store in Oceola.

Tonight, I’ve got a bit of skewed plans. I’m spending most of tonight with Jessica and her family, and then if we’re not going to mass, I’m going back to my parents house. This means that I’m either going to open presents tonight at Jessica’s (Jessica may of gotten me something but I’m not too sure.) Grandparents. I know for a fact that if we don’t goto Mass at 10:00 or Midnight (depending on what time the Mass is and if Jessica’s parents really want to go to it or not) that I’m going to ask to be dropped off at my parents house so I can celebrate Christmas tomorrow with my family and do the Christmas lunch/dinner/presents and stocking openings tomorrow morning. I also know that Jessica is going to probably be eating lunch/dinner with us tomorrow.

I have no idea what I got for Christmas from anyone, and I’m extremely excited.

Everyone have a great Christmas/Holiday break.

I pissed someone off today.

Heh.

Yup. I pissed someone off today. Not sure how, but, I did.

We were insanely busy today. I did 54 GPGs, and during the middle of helping someone, some lady came in and budged her way through the line, and asked me where the DS Styluses were. I said ‘Over there mam.’ and pointed to where the DS section is (they’re right around there), to which she replied ‘Where are they??!’ I said ‘One moment mam I’m kind of busy there are people in front of you, and I’ll be with you in a second.’ to which she replied ‘I need to know right now.. I’m in a rush.’ I then replied quietly as I walked over to where the DS Styluses were, and said quietly under my breath ‘Did they even look?’ (I don’t think they heard me.. maybe they did..) and then got back to ringing people out (there were at least 14 people in front of this lady) and then handed them to her, and she got pissed and said ‘This is the second time we’ve been in here and the last time.. I want your corporate phone number and your name.’, at this point James (my manager) took over and handed her Steve (my district manager)’s number and my name. He then turned to me after she stormed out and said ‘You did nothing wrong, don’t worry, she was a bit of a bitch herself and didn’t need to cut in front of everyone.’ This made me feel at ease, but I tell you she was nasty as hell.

We did an absolutely amazing day in sales. I’m just hoping that I rang all my GPGs as the proper ones for commission. It was absolutely insanely busy. 9 1/2 hour day and I did loads and loads of sales.

Long, long day.

4 days 11 hours left until I get to see Jessica again and give her christmas gift..
