Today has been uneventful. Got two more ear piercings though.
Aand I have to wait a month to get the last one. Meaning I have to walk back into that jewelry store with the overly talkative lady who lacks a social antenna. Things I've learned today, between missing the boat and finally excusing myself to at least catch the next ferry:
-Her father who's been ill for some time is coming back to town in a week's time. Along with a nice description of his illness.
-She has two young boys. One of them is only her step son. He's in forth grade, her other kid just started first grade.
-She does not want the summer vacation to last for two months. She'd rather have the kids do no homework throughout the entire year, and then just have a month off. This is mostly due to the fact that she has a firstgrader who cannot be home alone for two months, and she cannot take all that time off. And a bunch of other reasons which she explained in detail to me, but I just won't put you through that.
-Her step son does not like all the stress with living a week in each home. And then she listed the reasons and what they have done to solve the problem.
-Last week she went to the store with her family. The guy behind the counter messed up the reciept, so she paid too much for the kids' candy. This annoys her, because it has been her favorite store.
-Oh, and she has a friend who has a father in Germany. The fact that I have a German line from some lyrics as my title is, trust me, completely unrelated.
Now, after the summary of what she told me in the 20 minutes it took me to get my piercings and escape, you could be her stalker. No need though, just drop by and she'll tell you everything herself, and tons more if you don't have an excuse to leave and you are too rude to make one up.
Now that I am assured that you have a lot of interesting and informative reading, I shall take my leave and go study for the history test tomorrow. Or go for a walk while listening to Oomph!. Probably the latter.
