I'm Your Pillow
So there's this song by Franz Ferdinand called "I'm Your Villain." And while they're an awesome band, their singing is not exactly well-enunciated, and unless you have the lyrics sitting in front of you, the words are sometimes hard to decipher. And in this particular case, I thought they were saying "pillow" and not "villain." Granted, that doesn't make a lot of sense, so I figured I was hearing it wrong, but it still sounds like pillow to me, and when I sing along I always say pillow by accident at least once.
I actually have a little money to spare now, thanks to Aunt Cindi (and I feel terrible that I can never remember whether she spells her name with an i or a y at the end...I think it's an i, though...). I'm trying reeeeally hard not to go out and spend it on the first thing that catches my eye, but it's hard. Grr. I already spent $40 on towels and underwear at TJ Maxx. There's nothing wrong with my current set of towels, really, although one of them got some bleach on it, but they're dark blue, almost navy, and my bathroom really does not need ANOTHER color in it, so I decided I wanted white ones. And I was at TJ Maxx for the underwear, but I figured I'd look around and see what was on sale. The towels were pretty cheap (and very soft!), so I got them, and there was a hat I wanted, but it had a stain on it that I wasn't sure would come out, so I didn't get it. *sigh*
Also, I'm not sure if my Christmas plans are going to work out quite the way I planned...TC (one of the other assistant managers) just quit. SO...now I'm one of only two assistants, and I don't know that I'll be able to take any time off around Christmas as I had planned, which means that driving for seven or eight hours each way to see Sarah might not work out--we're only closed the 24th and 25th. SO...I guess I'll have to see how much time my boss is willing to give me.
On an entirely different, not to say random, topic...I went shopping for DQ at Office Max and Home Depot today. It was fun. I love spending other people's money *grin*

My paycheck will be direct deposited into my checking account at midnight. The money is not even in my posession yet and already it is burning a hole in my pocket. I feel your pain. Just remember that the moment it's spent, something will come along that you actually NEED that money for and you will be effectively screwed.

Also, I originally meant to tell you a story about a misheard song lyric. When I was in high school, my friends and I would drive around listening to loud music and we'd all sing together equally loudly. So one day, I was in the car with my girlfriend and one of my best friends and we were listening to that Alanis song, "You Oughtta Know." So it gets to the part where she says something about, "this cross I bear that you gave to me" and my friend SCREAMS, "this cross-eyed bear that you gave to me." Cue MUCH hysterical laughter. Cross-eyed bear! Hah! It's been 7 or 8 years and I still laugh about it. Also, have you ever been to the web site, www.kissthisguy.com? It's fully of a plethora of misheard song lyrics... some of them are quite amusing. Pardon any typos, but it is only 6:30am at the moment and I have not yet had my coffee.

And that wasn't anonymous... it was ME. I don't know how I managed to leave that part out.
