Not everyone is named "Steve"

maypirateThis is a conversation I had yesterday:
Richard: So this is my new motorcycle helmet and it has built in sunglasses and blue tooth and air vents and it looks like something out of Voltron!
Me: I got my sweatshirt out of a dumpster!
Richard: HIGH FIVE!
I'm good at life.
Or not so much. I don't even know. I was scheduled for a three day weekend but I spent Friday being in pain from having my teeth hardcore cleaned and scraped, Saturday at a 9 hour garage sale in the rain where people were cheap as hell, and then getting called in to take someone's 1-9 shift yesterday. And of course I work today, because holidays are a foreign word to me.
This is on top of my newly somewhat more social life, since![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
feels_like_fire is a force of nature and it's been a long time since there was someone else in my house to make me do things. Although I have threatened to hide her computer if she doesn't stop living on tumblr and reblogging everything that has to do with "The Avengers."
Speaking of that movie and all the other superhero movies I'm no good at, I just felt like telling all of the "X-Men: First Class" fans that we have like 20 copies of the movie in my store.
Oooh, it's all shiny and embossed. I may just rub it all over my body. I've already accidentally licked it while posing for that picture. :F Enjoy, unvideo'd humans! HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHA. ;)p
But seriously folks. You can always laugh right back at me because it's Labor Day and I'm at work and I will always be at work forever. And I took a copy home to watch it again and see if I could better parse the fandom phenomenon.
Anyway. Time to daydream about sandwiches for three hours and maybe work on a cover letter.
Edit: I just remembered that the last time I taunted people with a desirable DVD (which was Star Trek), I then fell illish! Today it seems my ribbing has conjured ALL THE FLIES IN THE WORLD. AUUUGH STOP TOUCHING EVERYTHING FLIES WHYYY And we just got our first "are you open today?" call. MY HUBRIS, LET ME SHOW YOU IT.

I love you dear! I hope today goes quickly and as painlessly as possible! GOOD LUCK!! ♥

Can I stab your job? Can I?
