running

our manager left a week ago. he'd put in his two weeks notice before i left for my trip so they had three weeks to figure out how to cover his absence. and i still don't know what's happening with that. i've been pretty much running things in the store. and trying not to go into overtime. it's been exhausting but i kind of like being in charge of getting things done around there. i'm in the middle of making peanut butter and jelly cookies. they smell and will hopefully taste delicious. at least they're coming off the cookie sheet unlike the last bench i attempted. gareth didn't see any movies this weekend. last week's was zombieland. another one too bloody for me to see on the big screen. i'm excited about next week's new movie. where the wild things are. i'm going with my family to see it. on my only day off next week. i hope they figure out who's going to be in change soon. hopefully it will be a situation where i can ask for that raise. i think i deserve it. i miss vacation. hopefully i'll get another one soon.
