Last month Juliet picked a Dean Koontz novel for the book club and everyone kind of hated her.



I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S BACK. I'M SO EXCITED OMG.

Okay, so WOW, the first three minutes freaked me oouuut. ETHAN. LOL OMG. That was so great. Ahhh.

You know, my sister has a huge crush on Jack, and throughout the last season and whatnot, I was like, "Eh, yeah, Jack." But omg my heart? Is so broken. A+ for you, Matthew Fox. You were amazing. And made me very sad. Augh. Ex-wife. You are such a whore. Even if Jack is kind of stalkerish. Still. Ow, man.

Dude, SAWYER. Omg the LOOK he gave KATE when she came into view. OH WOW. And him dancing to the music alsdkjf;lasjdk. LOVE.

I kind of wanted to punch Juliet in the face. I don't know. Something about her tone. Is she Henry Benry's wife, maybe? Dunnooooo.

So, yeah, is it just me or does Jin have super sexy hair in the previes for next week? Oh Jin. It is like, curly and longish.

Ugh. This show.


So, yes. I worked again tonight and... I don't know. My manager wasn't there, so I couldn't continue in my training, so I helped behind the counter. Just... thrown in there. I just had my cashier training on Monday (which was long and SUCKED), and never before have I ever worked a register, but it was just kind of thrown onto me today. And that was... disconcerting. Somewhat unrelated, but I made mistakes, really stupid mistakes, which is inevitable, really, I mean, I'm new, but I hate making mistakes more than anything. It's the only way to learn, I know, but augh. I hate it. It's just this whole new thing of dealing with customers, and knowing where things are, doing the right things in the right order, and shit shit shit did I get that right? I don't know, I can't remember.

I'm a worrier, and I hate that about myself. And yes, while I'm am so very fully aware that this is just coffee, and I really should just chill, everything will come to you eventually, I can't. I know things will get better. But right now it just kind of sucks.

That being said, I had a new Maple Macciato, and holy crap is it good. MY HEAD, though. Sugar and caffiene. Agh.


Also, my sister's birthday is coming up, and I totally ordered a Dwight bobblehead for her. I am so the best sister in the history of ever.

When I started they just completely threw me in! No training for the register or anything, I learned while being trained that way. :\

The new maple drinks are good! I would never, otherwise, buy one, if I didn't work there and sampled them for free. I wouldn't even buy a pumpkin spice probably, but I really like it. Of the new ones, I only tried the Maple Creme. I'll make the Macciato tomorrow. :D

Do you guys have to make samples and then make announcements or anything? Oh, nvm actually haha. I think we only do at my place because it's in a Safeway grocery store. That was one of the main things I hated about starting at this place, because I hate anything to do with public speaking. But it's not so bad.

OMG did you guys get the Halloween plushies? Or did I ask you that already? Anyway, they're so adorable! *^_^*

But, I'm jealous of your sister! I really want to get a bobblehead. :D I'm assuming you've already got one for yourself?

[identity profile] caithream.livejournal.com 2006-10-06 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
Gah! How did you do it? How long does it take for everythink to kind of just sink in? I'm stressing so hardcore over it, and I know I shouldn't, but gah.

We make samples, but I haven't been around while they've done it, heh. And yeah, it's a stand-alone kind of place, so we don't have to do any announcements, heh.

Yes! Omg the mugs too! SO cute. I may have to get one. :D

Hee, no, I don't have one for myself, but here's to hoping she'll get one for me for my birthday!

I've worked with old registers and what's really awkward is when you ring something up, and then start to say the number but kind of dwindle off cuz the number you're reading (for coffee or ice cream or something) sounds something like one thousand two hundred.... lol

I'd say about half of the show tonight was good. The end was lame though. hmm. But yeah, Sawyer/Kate...so unbelievably obvious in this ep!

[identity profile] caithream.livejournal.com 2006-10-06 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
Eeep, old registers. Fortunately we have the touch screen ones, so it's not too terrible. Still, it's a lot to learn. :\

Aww, Sawyer/Kate. I really don't have a favorite, if she goes with Jack or Sawyer, heh. I'm mostly concerned about Claire and Charlie. :D

you honestly have to try the maple creme frappuccino. it tastes exactly like pancakes. no joke. it's awful. but you still have to!

you'll be ok. sorry if i pressured you.

[identity profile] caithream.livejournal.com 2006-10-06 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
Ahaha, the macciato pretty much tasted the same way. PANCAKES. That's awesome.

Believe me, it was no pressure from you whatsoever. I just... need to grow a pair and get with it. I don't know. Can't help it, I guess.

I was all, "whose backstory is this that it's in some suburb in Cali -- WTF IT'S ON THE ISLAND? D: D:"
I don't think Juliet and Benry (lolz) are married, he came out of a different house.

I didn't realize how excited I was about it starting until like five minutes before hand. I can't help loving Sawyer and his monkey cage contraptions. ♥

As for work, I TOTALLY HATE when bosses do that. They're all, "oh, I taught you this for like five minutes the other day. Let's just throw you into the lion cage and see how things go!!"
And I hate making mistakes too. It'll start coming naturally sooner than you think. PROMISE!

he came out of a different house.

Trueee. Rulers of TEH ISLAND do not have time for such frivolous things as love!

It'll start coming naturally sooner than you think.

I hope so. I hate being the new kid. Wah!

♥♥♥

He is so scary and NEEDS TO GET SOME EYEBROWS OKAY? D: D:

*covers eyes so as not to read LOST spoilers*

Re Work: *pets* You sound sort of like Zachary acts when he doesn't do his FIRST GRADE homework PERFECTLY. He's all, "Oh, MAN!" and throws his pencil and gets all grumpy and says he can't do it and I feel like, just well, IT'S GONNA BE OKAY! Hehe.

No, but really I can understand. It seriously WILL come to you, unless you're one of those totally brainless people, and um, I've known you for half a decade now and YOU ARE NOT one of them. You be smart, chickie.

*pets again*

Seriously, one day there'll be a new new girl freaking out at the register and you'll be telling HER to chill out.

*loves*

Maple Macciato, omg that sounds absolutely heavenly!!!!! *makes gimme hands*

[identity profile] caithream.livejournal.com 2006-10-06 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
Oh Dor. Me and Zachary would get along so well, ahaha! When I was little I got so frustrated at myself when I couldn't tie my shoe or ride my bike the first couple of goes. Aww. He's such a cutie, hee.

I've known you for half a decade now and YOU ARE NOT one of them.

1) HOLY COW half a decade! We are all so BFFs forever, hee, and 2) ♥♥♥♥ Thank you, babe.

So I might have missed this from the finale of last season but wasn't Hurley with them too? What the heck happened to him? Was he sent back to his camp to tell everyone?...Now that I think about it maybe he was, but my friends have my second season so I can't double check...I know it was just one episode but I miss everyone else on the island. ahhhhh

[identity profile] caithream.livejournal.com 2006-10-06 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
Sayid told Hurley to stay back since Sayid figured it was a trap. So I think he stayed? And Sayid went off to The Other's camp to ambush them. It's been a while since I've seen it!

PS, have I told you lately that I miss you a whole, whole lot? 'Cause I do! ♥

[identity profile] distantechoes.livejournal.com 2006-10-06 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Hurley went with them and saw that bird that was like "HURLEY!" D:
And when they got bag-headed by the Others, the main guy was like, "We don't like fatties. Go back to camp." So he did.

omg why only four toes, I just remembered!
