strina | State of Me

Not, like, the mechanics of it, just the people. Coworkers and customers both. Two of the other cashiers are just. I would very much like to punch them in the face, or throw spiders at them, as they are apparently frightened enough of them that I had to swap one of them in for at the service desk and spend 2+ hours in the sweltering foyer fighting cobwebs and daddy long-legs. Many of the customers are bitchy - I just almost got written up because one of the new guys screwed up but I was the face the customer saw, so obviously I was at fault - but there are also creepers the no-personal-space guy (when you notice me leaning away because you are too damn close, the proper response is not a giggle) and Melty Man, who keeps asking where I live and talking about giving me a ring, which 1) inappropriate, 2) you look older than my granfather, and 3) INAPPROPRIATE. God, people, just because we can't yell at you doesn't mean it's suddenly okay to be a jackass. I need to take some days off before I actually snap.

In better news, my cat remains freaking adorable and clingy and so spoiled. Most of my time at home now is spent with a cat napping on my boobs. Earlier I was taking a bath and reading an old Hannah Howell when he decided to join me in the tub, although this time he actually dangled his tail and feet in the water, instead of curling up in the middle of my torso like usual and clawing the crap out of me when water dared to be wet.

I am actually thinking about driving to Duncan tomorrow for the "World's Biggest Garage Sale" - probably a misnomer, but I am in a garage sale mood after last Sunday, when I got a silver rune necklace at one for 10 cents, chain and all, plus a bunch of old Avon bottles, including one that looks like a mermaid (it is awesome, I totally want to fill it with glittery bath salts and just keep it on a shelf).

Fandom is still my happy place, though, so:

bandom_hc has hit a tipping point for me; I have now submitted too many prompts (38 - yes, I totally did have to make a list just to keep track of which ones I'd posted so far) to be embarrassed by the over-enthusiasm. All I can do now is shrug and blame the mod for making a challenge so very suited to all those stories I've been wanting people to write me for the last year and change. I have suggested threesomes 6 times so far (Brendon/Katy/Travis! Brendon/Pete/Ashlee! I never knew I wanted those!), and GSF thrice, plus the one with the space harem. Totally my favorites, though? The slightly retooled Brendon Urie: One Man Band and the one where a bunch of bandgirls get drunk and form the supergroup Haters to the Left, which they use to mock misogynist assholes.

And did y'all know there is a big bang for Tony Stark/Steve Rogers, aka Iron Man/Captain America, aka the OTP I accidentally caught from

elspethdixon's Resurrection, Reconstruction, and Redemption 'verse? Because I did, but I did not know it had gone live.
