The Small World of Malt Shops.

So, I started working this summer at a malt shop near my house, which I have always dearly loved. I've already got, like, 600 dollars, and a checking account and a debit card, so...
yeah. I'm a big girl now. I work on Fridays and Saturdays, and I get asked to sub for other people a lot, since I am one of the few who will actually do it. On weekdays, Dave is my manager. Most of the workers don't really like him, but I'm not exactly sure why, cuz I think he's fine. On weekends, my manager is Brent. I dislike Brent more than Dave, because although he gives us free food and Dave only gives us half-off, he can be kind of annoying. And he thinks I'm obsessed with pokemon because he's seen my Pikachu sweatshirt, and now he always speaks in "Pikachu" to me, and told me I should put Pikachu ears on my bike helmet. I'm just glad he doesn't know I've memorized the Pokerap. And to top that, he thinks I'm a dungeon master because I knew there was a World of Warcraft trading card game and Nate didn't. I'm not sure how, because Nate is a gamer and plays WoW a lot, and I haven't played it for months, so I guess he must be living under the Blackrock Depths. I recently learned how to make malts, but I almost always have to do dishes instead, which is boring, cuz no one ever leaves. But money is cool, so I almost always close dishes when I can. And at least it gives me something to do....

7 Pounds.

So, I thought "Well, Will Smith is in it, therefore it must be good."
WRONG!
That was one of the worst movies I've ever seen, and I have no idea why anyone would like it. Okay, that's not true. I could see how some people would like it. They'd probly think "oh, it's so sweet. He killed himself to give his organs to 7 people. That makes his suicide totally justifiable."
And THAT is what I hated about the movie. It's like they were saying, "yeah, he committed suicide but now his girlfriend has a heart, and other people benefitted from it, too. So it's all good."
And his "friend" who totally went along with his plan. He annoyed me. If they were REAL friends, he would've stopped him.
So...yeah. If you've never seen it, its not really worth watching. A total waste of 2 hours of my life.

A Horrifying Experience of the Extremely Boring.

Well, this break our firewall broke. Much to my dismay, this meant that we had no internet for 3 days. (well, we could check our e-mail every day, but still...)
If you have ever had this discomfort, I'm sure you would understand, but for those who haven't, let me paint a picture for you. What do you do for a whole day when you had nothing planned and no one else was really home except you?
Your options:
Read for, like, 12 hrs straight.
Watch a billion movies and die of boredom because they're all movies you've seen before (and probly way too many times) because you can't watch any movies on Hulu or instant netflix.
Take a walk, although where on earth would you go and can you really just go take a walk for 12 hours?
Draw. (but who can draw for more than, like, an hour?)
So, somehow I managed to survive death by boredom, which is not half so interesting as death by poisoned cake anyway. During my hours of death, I read Brisingr, which was, as you can imagine, horrible, but since I read the first two, I had to find out what happened. And I also drew one picture and read The Shadow of the Bear. And I watched 3:10 to Yuma, Slumdog Millionare....twice..(Love that movie, BTW. We had it from Netflix) 3 eps of Pushing daisies, some Office episodes, and half of Star Wars 6. (because I though it was Star Wars 5, which I havne't seen in forever, and then I was confused, cuz I was like, "I thought this happened in episode 6, and where the deuce is Hoth?)
Soo...yes. (and speaking of hoth, look at this: http://www.thinkgeek.com/stuff/41/tauntaun.html Originally an april fool's joke, it was so awesome, that they might make it real!)
And then we got our internet back, and I was saved from a horrible doom...
