Secret Santa Save the Day (Story at 11)

Oh, this day. I seem to have a sinus infection, which always gives me the horribly chafed nose that peels for the next week. And I was a little late for work, which became noticeably late when I recounted my till three times because I though I was going crazy, when the drawer really didn't add up to $100. And I got stuck in Tools again, which is the register that sees the least action and in fact requires you to continually scope the other registers because you're supposed to wave customers to your register when there's a line while also watching for thieves in the tool aisles. I mean, I don't hate it down there like some of the cashiers, but it's going on three weeks with me almost exclusively down there. Plus, there's a gaping hole in the side of my loafers so I had to wear ankle boots, which are not exactly what I would have chosen to stand in for six hours.

But! I got home and found my hohohos gift! And I got pretty much the best santa ever! Candy! OK Go! Mercedes Lackey book! CHRISTMAS SOCKS. And finally, best part, will love it forever: FOOLPROOF ON DVD! The OT3-ish caper movie starring Ryan Reynolds!

On balance: Today was awesome.
