I know, the oddest things make me happy. Absolutely nothing interesting happened between work and home today. Tuesday I got to explain to a father and his two daughters that a Fluffernutter was the sandwich, and the thing they wanted was the jar of marshmallow creme. Oh, and where the chocolate crumb crusts were. Conveniently, they're in the same aisle. Ok, actually the one daughter had a clue, but apparently the dad had never had a Fluffernutter.
Why am I always the one to tell people where to find things in the grocery store? Most stores, even different chains, tend to stock particular classes of items together, so you'd think people would have a clue. Then again, I'm ignoring Pixel's Second Law, which is that many people are idiots.
And the nifty not-TIVO has music-only channels, so I don't have to keep re-tuning the tuner (because Mikey and I listen to different NPR stations). Which I'm sure he appreciates (the tuner part, not the music channel part). Anyway.
Wednesday's interesting happening seems to have been limited to sauteed mushrooms and steak for dinner. Well, that and another day of the roof not falling down around us. The people that have been repairing the roof at work for the last two or three months have now made it to our little corner of the building, and, well, the building isn't terribly solid to begin with. When they drive their little cart around the sprinkler system shakes. The walls shake. The drop-ceiling shakes. It's a very comforting feeling, really it is. And then there are the nifty chemicals and the tar that they are doing the work with. Such lovely smells. I usually have to explain the odd noises at least once a day, because the customers can hear them through my headset.
