Within two days of the other cashiers knowing I was looking for any days they wanted to give up, I've already got a full schedule for next week. I'm already at 38 hours. If they'd let me work overtime, I'd take a shift on Friday. This paycheck that I have coming on Friday is going to be shitty, but the next week's paycheck will be sah-weeeeet.

And I should also be getting my income tax refund around the next paycheck as well. That ended up being $825, state and federal.

*tangent* Kevin and I went to see Hunter in Little Shop of Horrors last night. It was okay, for a high school musical production. It could've been a lot better. I think we did it a lot better when I was still in high school. I do think Hunter would've made a better dentist instead of who they cast, but I think the only reason Hunter didn't get the part was because he's not really a "singer." The set could've been better...it just seemed like they didn't put much effort into making a set. But here's how I see it. The Tri-Creek School Corporation put "so much money" into redoing the school, giving it walls and a snazzy new ACTUAL theater, but what's the point in redoing the theater if they're not going to throw the drama department a bone and pump a little more money into the arts? Oh no, they can't do that. They have to keep funding their damn special state-winning champion football team. *rolls eyes* Red Devil Pride, my ass.

My only other gripe...the three-piece "Ronnette" chorus. Their costumes were shitty. If you go to see "Little Shop of Horrors," you expect that initial chorus to look dressed up!, right? They looked like they were dressed like three schoolgirl rejects on Skid Row. WTF?!

They could've at least found a blond bobbed wig for the girl who played Audrey. Hell, you can go get a cheap one at Spencer Gifts or Party City.

*semi-related tangent* I was remembering how the last time I saw "Little Shop of Horrors," it was when Jacob and I were on the outs. He introduced me to Tina that night. He broke up with me a week later and started going out with her not long afterwards. (Then again, I always pointed a finger at Andrew for sticking his nose in our business as the cause of that, but oh well. That's all in the past...although if I were to ever see Andrew today, I'd probably just castrate the prick.) But you know...I had a rotten time that night. I didn't have a rotten time last night. So...I'm hoping that this was the end of a long, shitty era in my life.

*tangent* I'm watching "Family Guy," and for the first time ever, I'm offended by this show. I'm talking about how they're depicting Peter when he has his "moustache" stroke. Sorry, but I've seen how Mom had to get around after her first couple MS attacks when she lost the use of her right side. That sort of shit ain't funny, Seth McFarlane. That's downright chilly.
