well its official folks, i'm unemployed.

allow me to take you briefly through the madness which was last night.

4 pm, S (old civic crowd but still part of the gang) brought up a bag of goodies containing funny headband dress up thingys, timtams, chips, chocolates, jelly lollies... more jelly lollies and shiny shiny smiley face stickers. each of us working (2 other girls as well as me) had to wear said funny headband dress up thingys - which makes every 2nd customer ask what on earth is going on, and every customer look at us like we are insane. we ate ourselves stupid and i spent the majority of the night hugging customers and saying goodbye, as opposed to actually working.

10:40 pm, S (bad influence that girl) turns up at the store with party poppers and the ingredients to make cowboy shots (butterscotch shnapps & baileys). fed me 4 shots in 10 minutes and i still had to get the store closed.

11:30 pm sees us making our way to epping pub where i was bought 2 shots and a drink to her one drink. then 1 shot and a drink to her water. meanwhile festy sleazy men hit on us and wouldn't go away, despite all our boyfriend talk and uncomfortable silences so they'd know we didn't want to chat. when one started putting his hands on me we drew the line and threw all notions of being polite out the window. finally the boys turn up, A (old civic crowd we affectionately call boy), and P (a close friend of mine that was originally a customer). to cut it short, they buy me more drinks and i get home at about 2:30 am.

so here i am, slightly tipsy and wondering if the eskimo joe buy has e-mailed me back and i end up on the computer for an hour (he had by the way.... Definitely not a problem to get me into the NY gig), 3:30 am, i remember eskimo joe are making an appearance on RAGE (music program on ch.2, can't be bothered finding the site) at 3:50 so i might as well stay up for that. taped it as it was the music clips to their old songs that they refuse to play anymore and new clips as well. 4:20 am i decide i smell like ciggy smoke and can't go to bed like that so end up having a llllllooooooonnnnnnnggggggggg shower. around 5-ish i crawl into bed.

8:30 am i wake up in a panic, freaking out that i'm meant to be at work.
