I have to study for a history final... I'm not doing it though. If I did I'd probably pass out cold. Instead, I'm sitting at work, may as well be twiddling my thumbs for as productive as I am being right now. Currently four women are being busy counting every item in the store. The only reason I am here a whole twenty hours after I woke up yesterday morning is to provide access to the office computer and to make sure they don't screw up the counts too bad.

This is bleh because I still have a full nine hours to go before I can quit this place, at least for this week.

Speaking of my second home, if anyone is interested, the poor guy who got hit by a car and broke his hip... He is out of the hospital. The surgery to insert a pin was successful. He is at home resting, as he will be for the next two months. A fellow employee gave him a bed, because apparently he was sleeping on one of those teeny race car bed mattresses. You know the type, not really a twin, but not really a crib mattress either.

I feel kind of bad about that. Here this guy is, works 40 hrs a week... always shows up. Willing to come in with little notice in an emergency, and he's sleeping on a damn toddlers mattress. He at least has a full now, and Im going to go pick him up another set of sheets.

Switching gears...

I can't believe there are only seven days till Christmas. Where does the time go when you are off doing other things? Worse yet, I only have like four or five gifts for people, perhaps six. I know of at least three more that I need to get, after that I'm lost.

What makes a good gift? In all rational it should be something frivolous, something that the person for whom you are getting it would never buy for themselves right? ... I dunno if I buy into that. I like to get things people need, or will find use for. I guess I'm ... odd in that respect.

Speaking of gifts, I'm being bombarded with the usual "What do you want?" I think I can safely say there is little, if anything, material I want. The material things I do want, are too expensive and I'd feel beyond guilty if anyone purchased them for me. However seeing as I'm going to ask you guys a question, I guess I best volunteer the info myself right?

I would like a 15 inch MacBook Pro.

I'd really like apple to fix the oversights/ flaws with their iPhone, and for AT&T to fix their online multimedia message retrieval system... That however is a whole separate blog I'm afraid.

yeah... that's about it. simple I guess.

What are you guys wishing for this Christmas? C'mon don't be shy
