Not the dumbest ever, but I will not read eBay orders right. I just had to quickly package up another product for someone because I only gave them 1 of what they wanted, not the two that they ordered... So I'm gonna e-mail the lady now and say, 'Hai, I had the dumb yesterday so you get soaps separately! Bai!' ... Just a bit more formally, obviously.
I once sent a big emergency blanket (those foil things) when they guy wanted the small one with a whistle. Boss wasn't happy.
Ok, not emailed her cause, to my way of thinking, they were posted the same day. :D
Eating sushi. It's brekkie. :D

Go. It'll be fun! :D
Forgot if I was in early today, so I called the office (I never call the office) basically cause my brain was mush. In at 12:30.
Children of Earth. End of 3x04 made me sad. End of 3x05 hit me more. :(
Brekkie! :D

It's all dark and yucky here now. I've been spoiled by the sunshine. Damn.
Anyone else doing The Porn Battle? I wanna get some smut writing practice in, and this sounds like a great idea. :D
Anyways, uh... Yeah. Bye! :D

Gonna buzz off.
You never saw me. Right?

I have unlimited downloads during the hours of 2am and 7am. How do I set up my computer to download things in that window of time without my having to be at the computer? All comments and tips will be appreciated, and will make Rach a very happy Rach as she would then be able to watch Amanda with her dark hair and English accent. :D
Work tomorrow at 10am. I wish Mark would hurry up and get his net online. Meh, I love him to bits.
Now, first ep of Sanctuary (where Rachel jumped about like a little puppy when two Atlantis names popped up in the credits...)(And why is Google Chrome saying that Rachel is spelt wrong? Stupid fucks...).
Rach xxx
PS I am loving Amanda Tapping in this. God help me she's cute... But the hat makes her look dowdy... Meh, she rocks hard core!!!
I hope everyone has a great Christmas this year and I'll probably list all the
So yeah, Merry Christmas peeps, and if I'm not too shagged out, I shall post soon. :)

Got a dress rehersal that I have to be on stage for by four. That's why I'm doing the morning shift.
I've read Twilight. I will be watching the movie. I probably won't enjoy it (if my ranting to Ru was anything to go by).
I want more Atlantis and NCIS. Just cause I'm happy that Rodney got the girl. :D :: Claps like a happy performing seal ::
Work now. Ugh.

I'm up uber early because I have a cold, and I couldn't sleep, and I had What Lola Wants stuck in my head cause of Zia. So I think I'm gonna write for a while until, at least, someone else is awake, then I can have a shower without feeling guilty of waking anyone up.
And also, if I wait until someone else is up, I can have a shower and have a cup of coffee waiting for me when I get out. :D But if I shower now, I can straighten my hair before work... Meh. I don't have to be in until nine. Well, five to nine technically... Oh. I can have brekkie today! :D Not that I don't normally have brekkie, it's just I'm not usually hungry when I get up, so when I do eat, I force it down and feel icky.
Ugh... Ok, now it's 7:10. I've been up since before 5. I'm getting tired, and I'm gonna die at work today, but I'll go. I'm a woman, and women don't complain about colds.
Ok. 8am. Shower now. Then brekkie. Been reading fanfic. Need a clearer nose. Ugh.

tinknevertalks if you want to add me (or gimme your username and I'll add you and read your stuff when my brain is trying to find that elusive spelling).I'm dressing up as a fairy tomorrow for work... Basically I'm wearing deeli-boppers, fluffy edged wings, glitter and a couple of tidy things. Wendy basically told me not to go over the top or scare customers, otherwise she's fine with me dressing up... I think she's gotten used to it... Ye gods, how the hell am I gonna get through work when I leave the shoe shop? (Cause... You know, I'm not gonna be there for ever.) I'd be castigated in an office (if castigated is the right word).
:: Coughs ::
Anyways, November I shan't be posting so much cause I'll be NaNoWriMo-ing and seeing fiancé and working and having a life and watching NCIS and Stargate Atlantis (I've just thought, what the hell am I gonna watch when Atlantis finishes? EEEP!!!).
Rach xxx
PS Add
tinknevertalks for NaNoWriMo fun. :Dtheperfectspy)... I could go through and change all the tags (head meet ache).Mark has a [trial period] job... "Canvassing" (read: selling) windows and conservatories and stuff like that... Except, he's the guy that gets the foot in the door for the person who'd do the figures. Yaay him getting a job. Boo him getting a job in Doncaster. That's about 210 miles away. (Seriously, look up Lampeter to Doncaster on google Maps, you'll see what I mean.) I won't see him for a long time (unless I can seriously convince Wendy to give me a week off, doubt it somehow...). I'm kinda glad that I'll have a distraction for November (really don't like him being away - I don't trust other people...).
Mum and dad are away this week, until Sunday. They went to my cousin's wedding, then off around the English countryside... They're on the other side of Newcastle Upon Tyne. They saw the Angel of the North... Good for them. Kinda missing them, but I've made dinner for myself and my bro these last few nights (Ru doesn't want cooked meals... She had a Ginsters pastie for dinner).
I just had someone randomly review a story that I said I had stopped writing... Honest to god, it's such a bad fic, and I don't want to write Mary Sues (cause they are... I can remember a lot of it, they were deffo Mary Sues). Maybe one day I'll rewrite it... But I don't see it happening soon (for one thing, I have two fics on the go, and I'm starting NaNo in November).
I'm gonna type up a drabble real quickly then go to bed.
Rach xxx
I'd like to thank God, my parents, all my fandoms, all my RL fandoms, all my friends and especially you. Yes, you, the person reading this post. Because, lets face it, you rock!
Also, I'd like to thank Lampeter library for letting me go on their net there when it was shitty dial up and only one computer there.
I would post a load of my old entries under cuts, but my spelling has seriously gone down the pan since leaving school. Also, I'm afraid of petty, selfish, shallow me.
However, this post shall have links to things, and requests (cause OMFG I need these things), and a general love in. :D
So, first a link.
OK, not so much of a link as a YouTube screen. It's me, drunkenly singing. If you like, you may listen and laugh... (Of course, I find it hard to listen to it... Like, painfully hard, but listen, point and laugh! :D)
Now, songs I want you to listen to (then delete and buy the originals to support the artists). (Change xx to tt.)
Reel Big Fish - There Is Nothing Like A Dame
My Chemical Romance - All I Want For Christmas Is You
Hairspray 2007 Movie Cast - You Can't Stop The Beat (OMFG the Jive Erin and Austin to this? FTW!!!)
Miley Cyrus - 7 Things
Korn - Kidnap the Sandy Claws
Nightmare Revisited? Gonna get. The Korn track rocks, as does the Flyleaf track... It's a bit sad though... Prefer the FOB version, cause it's so upbeat, but yaay music!!! :D
On the note of music, has anyone got a karaoke version of Kidnap the Sandy Claws? Sounds like a weird request, but I don't want Zia to sing Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered in a Christmas show cause it's in the most awkward place and I'd rather have all three of the witches have another song together than have Zia randomly sing at the start of the fourth scene before you actually know that she's chasing a guy (also, she sings 'What Lola Wants' at the end, which is the total opposite of Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered cause Lola is about getting the guy, Bewitched is about being in love and being fucked over slightly by it).
...
And Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered is one of my favourite songs and I don't want her to murder it...
Anyways, this is the end of the 2500th post. I hope you enjoyed it (and I will most probs add to it with pictures and icons... Dunno yet...)
Work.

After this one it'll be 2,499, and then my next entry will be 2500!!! For me that is huge cause omg, 2,500!!!

It does help that my journal is over six years old.
I've finally watched the end of the first Deathnote movie! Light is a fucking twisted dude... Anime is better. Although the last episode makes me wanna headslap him for not being more reserved in his gloating.
OMFG!! NCIS!! Lee... Ziva... Tony... AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!!! Seriously, the first ep was good, and the second one was too! Like, with Miami, I was all like, 'Meh, whatever' about the second episode of season six, but the NCIS gods of writing have kept it up! I am so bloody happy that it's all been kept good, and I honestly can't wait for the story arc to continue in regards to info leak person!!!
I have work in just over an hour. Boring. :(
I actually had brekkie today. It was nice. Ok, I had brekkie at a brekkie time... Usually I have brekkie at brunchtime.

kejsarinna.Everyone has things they blog about. Everyone has things they don't blog about. Challenge me out of my comfort zone by telling me something I don't blog about, but you'd like to hear about, and I'll write a post about it. Ask for anything: latest movie watched, last book read, political leanings, thoughts on yaoi, favorite type of underwear, life experiences etc. Repost in your own journal so that we can all learn more about each other.
I'm 21 in just over an hour! (Technically, I don't turn 21 until 3:45 in the morning... But that's kinda stupid saying it so I shall stick to the original thought) Wendy gave me two bags full of stuff (that have paper on top so then I can't see what she's given me) that I can't open until tomorrow. That's ok... But giving it to me at 2:10 in the afternoon? That's just torture!!! I just had moments of squealing, 'I wanna open my presents!!' but I've been good. Not opened any presents or cards... I do want my prezzies though.
Going out tomorrow night. Cocktails at the Kingshead. Shall be fun! :D

The wake was good. Sat with Jake, Ru and Mark... Then we moved over to where mum and Tim were (Tim's a friend of the family). Had a laugh... Got pictures of the family. And Bagel Girl was working!! She's still totally cool. :) I went over to grandad's house for a little while, showed Mark around. Said goodbye to all the books and the pics and the room... Dad's getting the chance to disconnect from that part of his life, but none of us kids are... Well, I'm not. By the time he goes over, I have to get ready for work. :(
Then Tim went off to change and have a shower at his "knocking shop" - the b and b he was staying at. He came over, and we had Chinese take away for dinner... And lots of alcohol. We played Trivial Pursuit, but then he got too silly and tried eating the pieces so we all kinda called it a night. Mark thought Tim was cool, which is a good thing. :)
Sunday, I was getting dressed after having a shower, and I just got really sad. Mark and I went out town, got him some fags (yuck), got me some chocolate ice cream (tasted so good, but made me feel sick afterwards), got home, dad raised his voice and I just burst into tears. So I explaiened why and dad was really understanding. I watched a lot of NCIS that weekend. I think I've hooked my family. Saturday night, me, Jake, Ru and mum were all sat in the tv room watching NCIS. It was fun. :) Kinda like bonding sessions you see in family movies when they sit together.
So yeah, recap. I miss my grandad, mourning is not fun, I love Mark and I have hooked almost everyone in the house onto NCIS.
Work sucked yesterday. I didn't start fucking packing up until 5:35, didn't leave the shop until 5:55... I usually leave at like 5:40. WTF man, WTF? And now we have to wheel a fucking chest freezer AND a fridge freezer out each morning and bring them in each night. What the bloody fuck is with that? I have enough trouble bringing in the fucking wire bins that hold all the crappy shoes that go outside... I now have to start packing shit up at like quarter past five, which means I need to do all the eBay stuff before then, which usually is fine, but Mondays are killer so I basically use all my afternoon eBaying stuff, not cleaning/sorting stuff out/serving customers/killing my eyes with sporks. I hate fucking lugging kitchen appliances in and out of a fucking building. If I wanted to do that, I'd get a drivers licence and ask for Russ' job. Urgh.
I told Wendy I was almost crying on Sunday (cause I saw them in the shop so I went in to say hi and all), and she said she could see that my eyes were red and puffy.
...
HOW THE FUCK COULD SHE SEE?! I HAD FUCKING SUNGLASSES ON! DARK SUNGLASSES!!!
:: Sigh :: Sometimes I hate my job... But I like it enough (I don't have to do much, I get on with the boss, life there is ok).
Urgh.
Seeing Mark tomorrow. If it's nice we're gonna take Chloe (his neice) to the park. :) Should be fun.
Rach xxx
But yeah, moving stuff onto the hard drive... It got sold as a 250GB but because of filing system and stuff like that it's only 232GB. Sure, it's only a teen tiny fraction of it, but if you're gonna advertise as 250GB, you would think that all 250GB would be usable! I know, bitching for no reason, but it feels good.
Went to Aber this morning with Jake (he's lost the card that has his National Insurance number on it, and how the hell is he supposed to get a job if he doesn't know what it is?) and we got a form from the Job Center (who are still all utter pillocks except for the security dude, who helped us), then we had brunch from KFC. It was a lot nicer than I expected, and Rudie had the last bite (she had prom last night so she crashed at her friend's house and her and all her friends met me at the bus). I had a brill travel back from Aber (I love gossipy teens). :D
I really hate one of the women at work though. She just left a bloody chocolate wrapper behind one of the card readers! The bin was by her fucking feet!!! It's not that fucking hard to miss! I have such issues with her it's hard to begin. Few months back I wouldn't talk to her, cause she would basically repeat what I said verbatim to the boss. So I refused to talk to her. Kinda makes me a bit of an attention whore, but, like a month, month and a half back, I went in and the door actually slammed before she turned around to look at me. Proper slammed. I must have looked like a bulldog licking piss from a nettle cause I was so pissed off. If I had done that, she would have gone running up to the boss and tattling on me. I haven't breathed a word to it to the boss but I'm so just biding my time. I can hold a grudge longer than a camel could spit...
Gods, all I seem to do recently is bitch. No wonder I don't get on well with people. After a while people just seem to annoy me. Random strangers who come into the shop annoy me... Especially if they can't control their kids! Spank them, they're misbehaving! I just wanna head slap so many of them for their stupid noisy kids! I'm gonna be no better when I have my own kids, I'll think the sun'll shine out of their asses, but fucking hell, if your kid is screaming the place down, you don't ignore it, you punish them, even if it's a row. Why won't people take responsibility?!
Oh! I've been reading!!! Absolute shocker I know, but I've just read a really good book by Adele Geras called A Hidden Life, and it's really good. I was really happy for the lead character by the end (and could kinda understand her relationship with her grandmother, which wasn't great). Now I'm reading The Time Traveller's Wife. OMG. It's so good... I'm up to the part where sixteen year old Clare asks 32 year old Henry to help her punish a guy and the tiny bit after it was so sweet and gods I love the book already. I hadn't realised how much I had read until it was 5:15 and too late for me to start trying to get the comp to go into safe mode and defrag (it just won't open up the computer profile when it's in safe mode). So that'll get read tomorrow.
monnie_doggett I love you for just going on about this book. It is so worth it.Meh. I'm gonna go and make some NCIS icons.

Elizabeth Weir as a possible baddie?! OMFG YEAH!
So yeah, I did work today. I did about 3 and a half, maybe four hours in CAVO (just learning the ropes and stuff), then the rest of the day in work work. Twas fun. Ruth, the receptionist who got the job back in January, is actually a really funny person! :D So I learnt how to do stuff on reception, so then I can fill in if someone gets ill or they can't find a cover. :D Rock on.
Also, I should be helping out on the database soon so I'll be computer girl again! :D
Wtf is with the pregnant Teyla belly? It looks odd...
Anyways, I'm gonna be supa!Rach at work... Which'll be interesting...
Anyways, I'm gonna go find a drink. My throat hurts.

I just don't know. :(
Sang my duet with Hannah, with only one fuck up (I forgot we were both singing one part), and both solos, but I'm really hating Goldfinger... I wish I'd done Diamonds are Forever, but with singing Diamond are a Girl's Best Friend I didn't want people to think I had a diamond fetish or something.
Need to find a dress though. Chris is going to Carms tomorrow, so I asked her to find out how much renting a nice dress would be. That way I can either buy a nice one on eBay, or rent one. :)
My head hurts too. :(
Ashes to Ashes watching, then bed.

61... Not bad. There's loads there I wanna watch, but never really got around to doing.
It's so sunny here. It's amazing. I'm just so happy. I hate winter cause I get so depressed and yucked up, but summer is perfect. Sunshine is amazing, even if a moment in it burns me.
Well, not just a moment, but you know what I mean. I'll have to put on sunscreen before I go out (although yesterday there was a storm with loads of rain... I hate storms!). It's just amazing to turn my head and out there is bright sunlight reflecting on the houses across the street, amazingly clear blue skies and, if I didn't have my music on, I'd hear birds singing. It's just great. I love summer! :D
I just don't love it enough to get burnt.
Best go shower before work. I really can't be fagged, it's too nice out, but what's gotta be done has gotta be done. Maybe I'll do the windows, something nice for the boss to come back to.
