So I organized my nail polish collection yesterday... o.O my friend has about 10 of my polishes so total combined with that I have 205 bottles.....Yet..I feel I need more! one of my obsessions is Christmas and Snowflakes. A few months ago I bought some plates from Born Pretty and one of them had snowflakes on them. So I grab a blue for a base and a silver foil and go to work. I have one word for how that worked out...FAIL. The snowflakes turned out horribly. I don't know if it was the polish or the plates weren't engraved enough or what but it was bad. So, I was thinking about making another blog to do just my nail polish from...but IDK. With my boy going away, I was going to do a blog about my day to day life with him gone, but IDK if I can manage two blogs... Anyway, here is a pic of my stash lol See you next time!
A piece of string...
A blog about a girl, her life, and her nails.

I told you I was never good at Keeping a Diary!
HA! I haven't posted since JULY! Like the title says..... anyway, so my friend S and I were at Ulta the other day and I was talking about how I follow a bunch of nail blogs and how some of them are making it their goal to go through all of their untried polish! I told her I'm getting to that point and she says I should start to do it too! Not to gain followers but just so I can actually do them! I will TRY emphasis on TRY very hard to post pics and such of my stash and my untrieds! :) for now though, feel free to peruse my blogroll for some AMAZING bloggers who know what they are doing! :) Also, Manicure Addict is having a HUGE giveaway! You should check out her blog first and follow her so you can see some awesome nails and possibly win an awesome nail polish haul! :) That's all for now! hopefully I'll post later today or this week if I'm lucky my very first swatch! I may even create just my own nail blog....

My weekend....
So, the last time I posted was the 14th...that feels like ages ago. Not much has happened since then. But I will tell you about what did happen. So the 14th was a Thursday....Friday, I honestly cannot remember what happened on Friday. Saturday I went to work with A and she and I had a fun night working as always...Sunday, well Sunday is when I do my cigarette order. OI. I get there at 3 and then I have to SCAN all the loose packs by brand...So I scan one pack of Marlboro reds, then count how many I have on the shelf..I have to do this for all 50+ brands that we carry. Then I move on to the Chews...same thing as the cigarettes...then I have to scan all the backstock of the chews and cigarettes...so I'll scan a carton of Marlboro lights and count that I have like 7 cartons in the backstock...Once I'm done scanning I get to plug in all those numbers into an ancient looking iPad..it's not actually and iPad but all the idiots who come in asking me what it is ask if it is an iPad...OI VEY. Well, I'm there with my boss till she leaves at 7 then I'm all alone till graveyard comes to relieve me at 11..THEN I have to go into the vault...or the cooler and stock all the drinks. I hate Sundays. Today...or rather yesterday. I worked with A again. Monday is another ordering day...just as big but not as complicated. "A" has to order all the candy and gum, and I have to order Pepsi, mountain dew, juice and about 1/4 the booze in the store. So mine is broken into 3 orders since not all the companies carry the same thing. So along with the order I have to stock the vault..again...blargh. Now for the *drumroll* Idiot of the day!!! Here we have what looks to be a competent young man who comes in and goes to the slurpee machine (I'm noticing a pattern with slurpees and stupidity)...He picks up the biggest cup there..annnnd....asks me "is this the biggest cup for the slurpee?" o.O No you idiot there's an invisible half gallon cup right there next to it! Seriously?! After that I just focus on getting my orders done and getting the hell out of there. Today, A and I made plans to apartment hunt, but my boyfriend S decided to work on my laptop ALL FREAKING NIGHT. So here I am at 7:20AM writing about my weekend...I have so much to do today! Laundry, Tires for Rover (my car), apartment hunt...and somewhere in there I have to not fall asleep in between while S goes to work...Till next time!

Shooting, pizza and beer
So, yesterday my friend A, and my boyfriend S, and I went out to Red Rock to go shooting since I needed to blow off some steam from the chaos of Free Slurpee Day. "A" needed to blow off some steam too, (she works with me), and she also wanted to learn how to shoot. So we went to pick up S from work at about 5 and drove out Red rock. One small problem, there were COWS where we wanted to shoot. So, we drove for FOREVER trying to find a decent place to shoot. Well we ended up on the side of a mountain, and my car, rather my suspension, was NOT happy when we got there. Anyways, teaching A to shoot was fun and funny, she, like, me was scared of the BANG! portion of shooting, so we started her off with my gun, which barely makes a bang, more like a POP,it is a gun though, don't get me wrong. Then I had to convince her to shoot the meaner looking one, and once she did she was like a kid on a roller coaster. "That was awesome!" BANG! BANG! lol those cans didn't stand a chance. She brought beer with her to drink, and normally I nor S would allow this, but it wasn't like she was downing beers before we went, and we were there to supervise. So darkness approaches and we pack up and head back down, my car handled going down better than up but I guess that's how it usually is. So driving down we see this truck, and a CREEPY man standing by there. Turns out he needed a jump. I wasn't freaking out because S was there and we had guns in the trunk. So we get his truck started and we go on our way. We get back into town and realize we are famished. So we go to a local bar that has fantastic Pizza, plus we know the employees. So we order a Hawaiian pizza and he comps us a pitcher of beer, I'm the driver and since I don't like beer anyways I stick with soda. So afterwards we head home and I sleep better knowing I obliterated some boxes and cans with my frustration instead of dwelling on my anger and the stupidity of Free Slurpee Day.

Free Slurpee Day!
So, I work at 7-11. Yesterday was 7-11. Every year on July 11th, the world goes mad for Slurpees. GOOD LORD. People were crowding around the machines, the floor was a black smeary sticky mess, I could hear myself walking...and the machines looked like they had exploded. The straw wrappers, the lids, the cups...EVERYWHERE. I mopped that floor 3x today. and 5 mins later, it would look like I hadn't done a freaking thing. We ran out of cups around 2pm. Here is where the stupidity kicks in. We put signs on the doors, on the machines...SORRY NO FREE SLURPEES and WE RAN OUT OF CUPS, TRY ANOTHER 7-11. People came in saying "Are you really out of cups?" and there's no more free slurpees?" Me: Yes we ran out at 2 sorry. My head: NO YOU DUMBASS, I PUT THOSE DAMN SIGNS UP FOR GIGGLES! I dealt with this idioticy for 5 hours! I was going insane! And people were RUDE! Giving me dirty looks like it was my freaking fault, and staring at me expecting me to say go ahead, use a BIGGER cup and walk out of here with $2.00 worth of Slurpee. They were also saying snide comments like "this is bullshit" and stuff. Like THAT is gonna make me say, "Oh you're mad? You poor thing, here go get some slurpee and let me lose my job." NOT! Like I said, stupidity and me do not get along. I get agitated at ONE person being an idiot! On an average day, I'll deal with like 10 idiots, spaced out throughout my day, so I can deal. I dealt with 30+ within an HOUR. OH GOD. Thank God it is over. I don't have to see those damn slurpee machines till saturday! YAY! Oh, ALSO, I had some JERK pull a fast one on me and steal a CARTON of cigarettes. That's like $60 worth of Cancer! GAH! I called my boss freaking out, and she told me to breathe and these things happen...blah blah blah... but I felt..I don't know...violated in a way. I was PISSED. I was a good steaming mess for about 3 hours...the slurpee idiots that kept coming in through the door didn't help my pissyness either. Anyways.....Now I get to go play tetris with a boy, a dog and 2 cats so I can get some sleep and forget about today. Tomorrow I get to go shooting and take out my frustration from today on innocent beer cans and make them explode! :D
So, I think I may give blogging another shot....
HI! If you are following me, then YAY! All this really is a place for me to write about my day, or week, and probably rant, since my job involves customer service, and that means idiots and rude people. One thing I cannot stand is stupidity, especially for extended periods of time. Now, I'm not saying that I am the smartest thing on planet earth, FAR FROM. But I try to use my head and not ask stupid questions like" Do you have the bread that goes with those hot-dogs?" Umm NO I just hand you a stick of meat in a box..I am also VERY sarcastic... anyway, welcome to my blog, or my diary I should say, The name may change later...a piece of string was the catchiest thing I could come up with 2 years ago when I started this. I was never good at keeping a diary..hmmm.. You are welcome to put your two cents in :)
