So, it was an insanely busy night. I'm beat. I'm up waaay past my bedtime here. It's not nearly as much fun staying up until 2am when you're not surrounded by silly college students. Although... technically I was surrounded by silly college students. It's just the leaving and going home afterwards part that's different.
Aaanyway, my point in posting... Massive, massive insane kudos and karma and whatever else you have to everyone in the theatre tonight. I have never had a shift that went so smoothly. Nor have I dealt with a nicer group of customers. Every LoTR fan in the universe, even if they've never seen the movies, or only like LoTR because they think Orlando Bloom's hot or whatever... you deserve a hug for just being awesome people! The concession was a mess afterwards, but I mean... I didn't get yelled at anyone about the prices (well, they complained, but it was jokingly), I didn't get anyone all confused, people knew what they wanted, but they weren't rushed and insane and... and.. people were dressed up! Not a whole lot, but enough to make the night more interesting. Even one of the guys that works with me was dressed up (not working tonight, obviously, but still), and he was perhaps the most amusing.. I think he could've passed for an unusually tall and less-hairy Hobbit... Of course, it was rather evil for most of us behind the concession and being managers and stuff, since we would have been there watching the movie otherwise, but hey, the second great part of tonight was that I found out all "the girls" (which includes some guys) are going to see the movie this Saturday, and then going out to eat. This means I'll be driving around most of the day in my mom's car (unless I find a ride or something...) and I'll be cutting it rather close for work, but oh well... I get to see everyone again! I'm sooo excited I can't bear it. I've missed everyone so much. When I got home from work tonight, I just sort of stood outside for a bit, and for a little while I didn't really want to leave for Chicago again. I was a nice feeling. Even though I know I have to go back for like, six months straight soon. It'll be OK, I'll enjoy it. Provided I don't get too bogged down. I know I've changed a lot since I've been gone. Funny, my parents haven't really mentioned it, but I know I have. I wonder if my friends will notice.
Ah, what a lovely day it's been. Even before work, I just sat around doing nothing, then I brough the Christmas tree in with my dad (smells like Christmas in here now!), then sat around some more (by sat around I mean "played Xenogears" but for some reason I'm reluctant to say it). I think I laughed more today than I have in a loooong time, and that's good. I need to laugh more. Which is why I'm looking forward to Saturday. Chicago would be so much better if more of the people would just loosen up a bit and not take everything so seriously, ya know?
Hooray for tangents! Provided they're the sort not directly related to mathematics...
