Sweet dreams are made of these.

Two little bits of awesome from the 'mart today:

1. Regional managers are coming in on Friday. Thank heavens I don't have to work tomorrow or Friday, which means I'm not going to be either a) running around like mad trying to detail, straighten, and clean anything I can find, or b) worried about being on my best behavior. Alas, it did mean that I spent at least half of my shift on checkout today scrubbing grime off the floor, polishing the sign holders in the foyer, dusting the candy and toy machines, and wiping down all surfaces I could reasonably do while not getting too far away from my register.

2. I was walking from the service desk to my register to pull my money for the girl coming in after me (it's about 3:27, I was supposed to be off at 3:30) and what should happen? Complete power outage. Which meant, of course, that all registers went down. They can only be brought up 2 at a time, in a specific order. Thank god mine was the second to go up. But then my screen froze. So I had to reboot it twice. Then I had to wait for all the other registers to go up before it was time to reboot the sporting goods register, where the time clock was, on which I had to punch out. I left at 4 PM. (So, an extra 30 minutes? During a week when my hours were drastically cut, I'm not going to complain. It was more of a pain in the butt than anything.)

Now I'm at home, waiting for my hubby to get here so we can spend some quality time together this evening. And by quality, I mean peanut butter cups, sweet tea, and bad t.v.

The stuff dreams are made of. :)
