An army of psyducks....

It's been awhile since I posted anything so I though I should put up something. I'll do the whole link thing, since this might be a long post.

Last week was interesting. Monday I had to go the courthouse for jury duty....I'm 18 for less than six months I'm summoned, my mom's been eligible for 20+ years and she's never been summoned. What's up with that?

So early Monday morning I wake up and go to the courthouse. I get there turn in my paperwork. Wait, get sworn in, wait, use the bathroom, wait, some people get called, wait, a few more people get called. Twelve O'clock rolls around. We go to lunch. I wait in line for chicken nuggets. A word of advice. DO NOT EAT COURTHOUSE FOOD. IT IS AWFUL. Needless to say I threw away the cafeteria food and got some ice cream from a vending machine.

I finish lunch, go back to the jury waiting room, wait, people get called, I wait, I get called (yay!) We're taken to the 6th floor, wait outside the courtroom. We're called in. The judge tells us the aspects of the case and tells us that we're not supposed to talk about it. All I can say it was a civil dispute and had I been chosen the trial would have lasted three weeks. He then asks us if we have any obligations. I'm not currently enrolled in school, have no family obligations, do not have to work for a living, and only work part time. Needless to say I do not qualify for dismissal.

We go through all that and like 7 of us are asked to stay to fill out a questionnaire. I had no idea how to answer some of the questions. The one's like "What's your household income?" also the whole employment history thing. The stuff that adults know. Blah I'm eighteen and yet I still feel like a little kid. Anyway, when we finish with the questionnaire they say we can go home, we just have to come back the next day at 9:00.

I drive myself on Tuesday. It went ok until I get on Nebraska which had a ton of construction. (Courtney + traffic*contraction)^raised to Ryoga's sense of direction = One lost and confused Courtney. After much frustration and a near breakdown I reach the parking lot, go up four levels and park. Then I get lost on foot. I eventually get to the 6th floor of the courthouse ten minutes late. I wait some more. Some of the other juries are like "Are you really 18??" I mentally lol.

We go inside, in some form of order. I was number 120. I sat in the back. The plaintiff questions us, by rows...He usually went off on a rant before got to our row. I nearly fell asleep. We're released for lunch. I learned my lesson on cafeteria food so I decide to survive off vending machines. Glad I did.
THEY HAVE CHEESEBURGERS IN THE VENDING MACHINES. YES FUCKING VENDING MACHINE BURGERS THEY WERE DELICIOUS.

Anyway, after lunch the defendent guy asks us questions. He doesn't go off on small rants as much as the other guy, but it's still really boring. After awhile they send us out. Then they call us in. I'm not chosen I go home.

I get home, then get sick. I swear it was those nuggets. According to my mom chicken nuggets + stress = sick.

Abridged version: I go to court two days, eat vending machine burgers, get sick from bad chicken.

Yay work related stuff. No real order to this part. Just random observations/stories from work.

    I noticed I get called the randomest things at work. Servers seem to have the odd habit of calling people fun names. One guy has taken to calling my Sunshine. Sometimes he calls me darlin' but only when he says "thanks darlin'" Similarly another guy always so "Thank you ma'am" when I seat him. I've also been called Miss Courtney before. The weirdest one so far was Cupcake. The one who called me that can back quite well. He's selling yummy baked goods to raise money to go to Rainbow Weekend.

    Little Back story for the next thing: I work at Ruby Tuesdays. The one I work at (the main reason a shy ackward girl can get a job as a host) my brother (Chris) used to work for. He transferred out before I started, but most everyone knows and likes him.

    Anyway, the other night I was standing at the hostist stand and one of the servers comes up and looks at me for a second. She then says: "Courtney, every time I look at you I think I'm looking at Chris in drag"
    I was thinking "well, thanks. Good to know that I look like a guy"
    It seems although we have not spent much time around each other since about 6th grade, my brother and I not only have the same facial features, we also have similar speech habits and mannerisms. I've heard from other server we have the same cadense in our voice...but I'm my brother in drag? T_T

    Ok. Outside of work, I've been busy playing pokemon. I got the diamond version. I'm building an army of psyduck. Once I've captured and trained my soldiers I will then gather a herd of gyarados to serve as beasts of burden. Then I will rule the world with an iron grip!

    I also got Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. Great game. And I've been geeking out with the marvel Civil War.....well that's about it. I'll try to update more often so I won't post a ton at once..

Boredom + Photoshop = the reason to read Hunter x Hunter

2007-09-14T00:33:42Z

Um...I started playing around with Photoshop today....
Well technically it was Seashore the mac version of GIMP which is the open source version of photoshop...but if GIMP = photoshop and Seashore = GIMP, the Seashore = photoshop...so yeah same thing.

I slightly altered a page from Hunter x Hunter...check it out.

Yeah read Hunter x Hunter....it's FTW

Oddity^pirate = arggity

2007-09-06T21:42:13Z

Why do I keep using math? It's not even simple functions like addition. I just used an exponent...Why?

Anyway. I ran some errands with my mom earlier. I finally got my tips from Sunday. ($40 yay!) And my tips from yesterday. We had to pick up my sister from school so I didn't get to run to the bank like I planned.

But on the way home from Hallie's school I saw something...odd/cool(?)

Math break:

coolness/ oddness^current mood = description of sight
current mood = indifference
coolness >/= oddness
therefore: description of sight = wtf.
(had mood been more empathetic D.O.S = WTF)

Ok, so I saw something rather wtf. On Memorial, walking on the median was.....a pirate. A real live pirate....just staggering down the road. wtf yes?

First Entry/Camplaining about work.

2007-09-05T21:15:22Z

Yay! My first entry. And it's about work.....yay?

It wasn't too bad today. There was this manager/trainer/district controller/regional director/panda observing us today. She said I was doing a good job so I felt good. I also got my pay check. Yay! $3.08ish/hour * 20ish hours - government = $60. I is rich. -_- Tell me why I'm doing this again.

I was also gonna pick up my tips from Sunday. I've been anxious to see how much it is since Sunday got UBER busy:

given that closers = 2 servers remaining on the clock, 1 hour till close * closers + 8top + 5 top(3) + 2 top(10) + 3top(6) + 4top(7) = one crazy fucking hour + 37.3 annoyed customers^2overwelmed servers +/- hostess^(feeling bad for seating people * urge to bus tables)

Hmmm....I will probably include lots of math in my posts. I don't know why, but I will.

Anyway since we got that busy I wanted to know how much I earned. So I waited until I was done with today's shift. The managers that had been on were in a meeting with the lady regional manager dictator thing. So I waited until the PM manager came in. I asked him for my tips and my paycheck. HE COULDN'T FIND MY TIPS! Which sucks. So now I have to go in tomorrow, when I don't work and get them. T_T

One of the servers got angry at me because I "triple sat her." Technically I double-sat her, but it wasn't really my fault. She was working in the bar. Apparently one of the managers sat two people in the back of the bar, behind the drinks, and the counter. and tall bartender, where I couldn't see them, while I was seating some crazy people who wanted to sit on the patio. I WAS NOT INFORMED OF THE SEATING! So I thought the girl in the bar had only gotten one table or so since the beginning of the shift so the next people who came in, I sat in the bar. The next person had a sleeping baby in a stroller and asked for this half booth table thing in the bar. The managers told me I HAVE to seat people where they want to be seated. So I sat her there. The server comes out and snaps at me "You triple sat me!" Which kinda mad the lady with the baby feel bad since she asked to be seated there. I apologized later and explained what had happened and she apologized for snapping so it's all good.

Not much else happened today.
