Happy Valentine's Day & Happy Chinese New Year! I have been sick for several days so my day was uneventful. Slept a lot. Watched bad sci-fi on tv. Species & American Cyborg (on a Spanish speaking channel no less). Doing laundry now
Yesterday I was paid to do an in-store demo at a local grocery store selling Dove peanut butter chocolates. My voice was cracking & I had to bring cough drops. I wore plastic gloves so that hopefully I didn't get any customers sick. Stupid part of it was the company had me buy 12 bags of the candy, leaving only 3 on the shelf. I only opened 4 bags in the 6 hours I was there. Not many people wanted free candy! WTF?! I swear, the manager took the left over bags of chocolates home. I wasn't allowed to take them with me, because the company that hired me paid for them. Normally the managers leave the left over items in the breakroom for the employees. But I know he was leaving for the day when I caught him to hand them over. I mean, who wouldn't take free candy to give your family on Valentine's Day, right?
.
Tomorrow I should go visit my mom. I usually go see her on Sunday for dinner. But I wasn't feeling up to going anywhere today. I have Valentine's treats & a card for her. I really would love to hit up the Ren Faire so I can catch Mediaeval Baebes. I hope I feel well enough to do just that!
I think I need more cough syrup. And some juice. I may go out & buy some juice. Or maybe I'll squeeze my own from some grapefruit on the tree in my back patio? I need some Vitamin C!
