e_clare1. pudgy cats who hate being cuddled--but get swooped up anyway
2. free laundry
3. unintentionally speeding to keep up with the awesome song on the radio
4. my own little bed (currently sporting kickass Star Wars sheets)
5. the "pop-culture of my high school years" collage that always falls down
6. all-hours access to the fridge (mmmm...cold pizza)
7. running into just-the-person-i-needed-to-see walking down the street
8. running into people i haven't talked to in months walking down the street
9. cable tv with the channels in the "right" order
10. the possibility of walking almost anywhere i need to go
Today? Was a good day. I'm all warm and fuzzy from work, instead of hating the world like usual. My managers are all happy to see me, the newbies were nice, and all of my customers were patient while I tried to reacclimate myself to the subtle changes in concessions.
Thank you, customers: lady who told me the popcorn was stale, guy who didn't like trailers, and that nice man with the missing teeth who came back for a popcorn refill. All of you chatted about the good points of movie theaters, and made me remember why I wanted this job so much last year. *hearts you all*
And thank you, co-workers: newbie usher who actually introduced himself; manager who finally explained all the changes in concessions, then said "I'm just so glad you're back;" and boy from Kansas who was working the desk at the end of the night and reminded me I only owed one dollar for parking. <--My hero.
(Tangentially related randomness: I had "Moses Supposes" stuck in my head for fully half my shift. Nice to see I'm still saturated with musicals.)
Tomorrow: Jessie McD and I see Troy--although I don't think there's any way it can live up to this. Heh.
