Okay, I have to comment on last night's new episode of Buffy. At present, I am typing with a new set of fake nails, so bear with any typos and mistakes, please.
SPOILER WARNING

Got to say, it's looking up. With the new Sunnydale High up and running and the Hellmouth conveniantly situated under the new Principal's office, we can see we're up for a fun year. I hear rumers about them harking back to the 'glory days', when the Scooby Gang was looking up stuff in the library. It also looks like Dawnie's getting her own gang. Kit and Carlos, two 'unreachable' troublemakers, make friends with the newest Scooby-in-Training over a ghostly encounter in the SHS basement. Yup, Buffy's training her lil' sister to fight the good fight. The new principal is interesting. He apparently knows who/what Buffy is and even offers her a job at the school, as a counselor of sorts. Convenient way to get Buffy hanging about the school. Loving Spike's 'demons'. What a great surprise to see Warren, Glory, Adam, the Master and, the crowning glory, Drusilla paying the newly souled (and kinda nuts) Spikey a visit.

Oh, and I've got twenty bucks on the girl running for her life at the beginning being a Slayer-in-Waiting. Not only has the casting call(among agents) gone out for Slayers-in-Waiting, but for Slayers too. It's gonna be good.

I hate work. I'm just so flipping bad at it that it makes me want to scream. I can't even get through one day without messing up at least once! I want to scream and throw things and cry. I like my job, but I hate work. Dammit! And I want to swear, but I was going to not swear on here anymore. Anyway, as I've said before, I work at a kid's costume shop. It's fun, when there's not actual work needed to be done. I can think up costume ideas by the dozen, tell you how to dress your kid as the Golden Snitch or remember what wig Diane was looking at three days ago, but I can't do actual paperwork. I'm serious. I always forget at least one step. Sometimes two. My bosses are always having to remind me to sign off on this and double check this and call her for that.

Last week I screwed up royally and I will never live it down. We sell dance wear at the store and because it's Sept, all the classes are starting, so everyone needs new everything. That means new shoes. Tap shoes, jazz shoes, ballet shoes; used, new; you name it. At one point it got so busy that I was sitting on the floor surrounded by boxes and pairs of ballet shoes while people just queued up behind me to be fitted. I must have fitted at least ten people in half an hour. Well, on Friday, a mum comes back in and says her daughter's ballet teacher said that the shoes were wrong. Donna(my boss) did another fitting and informed me(not meanly) that not only had I fitted the girl completely wrong(like a size and a width), but I had accidentally given her one 7 and one 7.5. I was already embarassed that she had to be refitted, but add the fact that I screwed the store over(we couldn't find one of the other pairs), I was feeling very crap-tacular. And thoroughly ashamed. I mean, I've been there for almost a year. I should know this by now!

I just want to stop working. I can think of a million other things I could be doing, all of them involving NO WORK. *sighs wistfully* I wish....

I saw the video for Justine Timberlake's new song "Like I love you". Very much a Michael Jackson rip-off. Not a great song, very Justin, though. I have never thought he was cute or anything, but this new look is bordering on yummy. I could almost like him.
