Happy Meme Day 3
Reasons to be happy today:
- Having the day off!
- Getting to shower! (One of our baths - the one with the shower - gets renovated right now, so we don't have a shower, but we can shower in the janitor's bathroom. I usually just wash at the sink, but today I enjoyed a hot shower. Bliiiisssssssss.)
- Finding a nice, thin pullover that I can pull under my purple sleeveless knitted dress - and it was a business of getting into the store, having a short look around, getting a changing cubicle right away and only one person before me at the checkout. \o/
- Mailing the whole rest of my Christmas cards (er, some of you might get them late. I'm very sorry!). When I got to the post office it wasn't actually that full, but there were some lines. But! There was a little stand where they sold only stamps (and you couldn't mail parcels and the like) and since that was what I needed, I didn't have to wait at all. :) Ok, there were some problems when I wanted to pay with my cash card (apparently all the lines were full and they've had that problem all day) and they had the same problem with my credit card and I didn't have enough cash with me. Following dialogue ensued:
Me: Well, then you'll just have to hold my letters hostage and I'll go and get some cash.
Post Office Clerk: Oh, would you do that? Wonderful.
Me: No problem, I'll be right back. (I went and got some cash at the atm and then got back) I'm here to pay the ransom. *smile*
Post Office Clerk: Great! *takes my money* And here are some gummybears for your patience!
Me: Thank you - and such a coincidence, I have some chocolate for you to help with the stress! *smile*
Post Office Clerk: Oh - thank you! *smile*
Seriously, I know retail at that time of the year and the post office can't be much better - and then having technical problems? Not. Fun. - Watching a movie! (I thought I had missed it because it should have come out in November, but then I saw it in the program of this little cinema here and was all Yay!) It was good. :)
- Free popcorn! (They had some problem with the tech and the movie stopped playing after about 20 minutes and when we (we were only two people in the cinema) went on search for an employee, nobody was there, only a note to call this other small cinema right around the corner if there was an emergency. So I did that, they send someone right away and then we got free popcorn for the inconvenience. :)
