ateolf: (the goat...BITCH!)
friday night they offered overtime so i couldn't resist, even though i seem to be losing fridays lately...it's just they went SO long before without ever offering overtime and since no perfect attendance bonus and no third roommate i've lately been afriad NOT to take any overtime i can...anyway, then yesterday Mary Beth and i went to this yardsale this girl from work April was taking part in...i got a bunch of really awesome ties! okay, then here's a midly weird story: i go to Value Brakes to get my brakes inspected 'cuz of their squeakiness and the guy there asks me if i already had an appointment and since i didn't says he can't do anything because the manager left and the only way he can get me "into the system" is if i already had an appointment (!?) um...that doesn't make any sense and i think he was fucking lying to me just 'cuz he felt he could get out of work he didn't have to do...i'll have to call them later to set up an appointment and ask the manager if that's actually true as it's so fucked up, i'm normally not the one to complain but if you just refuse to give me service that's just a little uh, i'll say "fucked up" again (especially as there's only one day a week i'm able to do this shit...) anyway, afterwards we went to Jimmy's out in bartlett which is a very chicago-proud hotdog place...i'm not a hotdog person but they had some good damned hotdogs...then we went to that goodwill 'cuz it's like almost next door and they actually had a few books worth getting: Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert, Underworld by Don DeLillo, Modern Germany Reconsidered 1870-1945, The Descent of Music by Deborah Cumming, and Waiting for Godot by Samuel Beckett...then later in the evening Jason came over and we watched Girls Behaving Badly before going out for doughnuts...and we got there just before 2 am and they were super-fresh and so fucking soft and tasty and more wonderful than doughnuts usually are (which is good in theory but then they shortly make you feel sick...) anyway...i think i'm out of junk to say...
