I have great will power!! I had signed the home early book on wednesday and got approved to leave at 9:15pm. I emailed staffing back and said that I would rather stay and work (my bus leaves at 10:20pm so I would have to call a cab, wait for the cab and maybe get home at 9:40-9:45pm. I really wouldn't be gaining enough time to make a difference. Thursday came and went rather quickly, and on Friday when I logged on at 1:45pm I was looking forward to the weekend. I got an email just before my first break telling me I could go home at 3:45pm. I was stuck in a call until 4pm, but then I logged out and checked the bus schedule-it said a bus was to arrive at 4:20pm. I went out and waited for alittle while, but remembered that my schedule is from 2007. So I started walking (thinking if the bus came I'd wave it down and if not I'd be closer to the mall and home. (I had wanted to pick up some 3M hooks to put pictures up). I stopped over at the liquer store and bought a big bottle of coconut rum for myself and some beer for Sam. It was around 5pm (I think, I wasn't wearing a watch) when I arrived home and Sam was pleasantly surprised to see me (since I came bearing gifts). He made us some Sloppy Joes for supper, they were really good! At Zellers I had seen an entertainment centre, but no price on it,so I had just passed it by. Saturday Sam and I got up and went to Zellers to buy it. We got there and found out it was marked down, it was only $59.95, down from 129.95! I spent all afternoon putting it together-easy to assemble my ass!! Whoever decided to put that statement on the box, obviously had never attempted to put it together before! There were a crap load of these stupid screws with locks that had to be attached after they were screwed in and placed in whatever panel was required for that stage of assenmbly! It was Crazy!! From now on I will be shopping for products that say "no assembly required"! It was a really nice evening though, Sam and I hung out together and had some drinks. :)
