i was dreading looking for jobs today, but it has been entirely great.
first i went to the used bookstore and got an application.
and found 3 books i wanted for $1 each.
then i remembered that the new jane carey book came out TODAY! so i checked half-price books, didn't find it and used it as an excuse to go apply for a job at barnes and noble...where i met a very nice fellow sff geek who seemed eager to have me come work with him.
checked out a couple more places, bought ross some jeans he has been asking me to get for him, and discovered !! there is a new air traffic store that has opened near us!
for those of you who don't know, air traffic is a gaming/juggling store. the guy who owns it is nice/knowledgable/gave me a free club-juggling lesson and gives lessons for really cheap on sunday afternoons!!! i know where i'll be spending my sundays!
i couldn't resist. i got a contact juggling ball to replace the one i have that is really way too small for it. it is BRIGHT orange and UV sensitive.
so now i get to go home and enjoy my fun new toys/books.
paradise.
SQUEE!

Date: 2006-06-13 01:59 pm (UTC)i am applying to the maplewood mall b&n. i really don't want to work retail, but i don't consider it permanant. i am mainly looking for fun work while i find something that pays more and is in human rights. i would be grateful for your help, but please take that into account before you risk any sort of reputation on me.
