work ramblings

So uhm… “Hi“, I guess.

I ‘m not sure how to start this. I totally feel like I’m starting a new blog, even though I already posted twice. But those where only two random thoughts. By that, I’m not saying that this blog is going to become any less random, I highly doubt that.

I read a lot of blogs lately, and that made feel like starting again myself. About a week ago I was working the early shift at the gas station (which is from 6 a.m. to 2 p. m.) and so many things happened that morning, that it eventually got me thinking “I need to blog about this day”. I even took notes. But alas, they are lying on my desk at home. So today you are not going to hear the story of “that totally crazy day”. Right now I also am at work, which means I should be doing anything but writing this, but it’s the night shift, so there are not many people coming, and I have done (nearly) all my cleaning and stuff, so I really don’t care. Of course I can’t post this until I’m home in the morning, but who cares anyway.

What would be better right now of course would be studying. I have a really important French exam coming up, I have an essay due Thursday at noon, and I also have to do a 45 minute presentation on Rushdie’s “Satanic Verses” that day. But you know how it is. Plus I’m very easily distracted. In my defense, I already read a couple of French texts tonight though.

It’s strange, I keep thinking “can I actually say this?”. It’s been ages since I actually wrote longer texts in English. I hope it doesn’t bother you if some things sound messed up. But I thought writing an English blog would be nice.

I don’t even have any funny work stories to tell today. Which is quite sad. Usually I have at least one or two funny, weird (or both) things happen in a shift. Well I still have two hours to go though, so maybe there still is a chance. So now I’ll just mop the floor and sort out old newspapers, today’s just got delivered.

So now I’m officially done with all my duties until I open up the shop again in about an hour. My feet hurt. And I’m bored. Meh. I will now start reading “A brief history of blasphemy” for my presentation and try to stop wishing customers a good evening even though it technically is 4 in the morning.

I wish everyone who is reading this a fabulous day,

Gewuerzgurke out. (I’ve always wanted to write this)
