So I've had a couple of jerk customers at work, and I hate working register, but it's only for a couple of months, so I put up with it. No big deal.

What IS a big deal is I hafta go in tomorrow, and this sucks for several different reasons:

A. I've come down with a bad cold. I felt it a little earlier in the day, but now it's become a sore throat, sniffly nose, and splitting headache.

B. I hafta WALK to work with said cold in the 106 degree heat.

C. July 4th wasn't as great as it could have been. We accidently ran over a dog on the way there (NOT my parents fault all though), damaged and almost flipped the car, I got sick when we drove by and I got a good look at the poor guy, and sent 14 years of tradition basically down the toilet. I'm still not entirely over seeing his body...

D. Taking off wouldn't be a good idea since I'm taking off for orientation and the Harry Potter book release. I mean, I could, Robin could always get someone else to do her dirty work, but I don't want mom to think I'm faking and not let me do anything but sleep and stare at the wall while I'm home.

E. My manager set me up to OPEN BLOCKBUSTER. Alright, this is REALLY starting to piss me off. WHY do you keep scheduling the BRAND-NEW TEENAGER to open and close the stupid store?! Dude, CHOOSE SOMEONE OLDER WHO'S WORKED HERE FOR A WHILE. That's an assistant manager job, not Chi-the-part-time-chic's.

So, that's my rant for the night. I'm gonna see if I can sleep this stupid cold off.
