oyceterI fear nothing intelligent will come out of this journal until the Olympics are over.
Watched men's gymnastics today, along with various swimmy things, but missed stuff because I was at work. Silly work.
Buying day was pretty good -- I bought more stuff. And someone sold us their entire set of Sandman, and they were all the original covers, and they were in beautiful condition, and I am a happy happy buyer ^_^. I also came across an order with some older "how to make a relationship work" books, then a wedding planner, then a whole bunch of fairly new books on divorce. Yowch.
The worst part of the day was coming across a small cockroach (about an inch) in one of the boxes I was doing. I was quite restrained. This means that instead of screaming my lungs out and jumping about ten feet into the air and skedaddling, I merely gave an undignified squawk, which caught the attention of pretty much everyone within a ten foot radius, and skittered to the other end of the buying counter. Luckily, my boss dealt with the nasty thing for me, and ew ew ew ew ew just thinking about it is making my skin itch and my toes curl in a particularly unpleasant way.
I am not good with bugs.
