worn off

Here it is just three days into my blogger life and the novelty of it has already worn off. Maybe it's just my laziness creeping in. I will try to stave off the laziness and hunker-down for some good ol' blog postin!
Since I named this blog "What's goin' on" with the intent of letting people I know be in the know with what's goin' on in my life, I should let you know what's goin' on. I must've forgotten that my life isn't that exciting--so those who are reading you have been warned!
Perhaps I can tell you about my work at J. Crew, or, for those of us in the know, 'The Crew'. Actually, I'm pretty sure no one except Marky Mark calls it the Crew, and he can because he's just cool like that. There's not much to say about working retail except that it sucks, and more so when I have to pretend I care about helping rich, entitled snobs who pay $200 for a sweater because it's cashmere (my apologies to anyone reading this who has done so, I still love you). I'm just a J. Crew poser, pretending to know what I'm talking about with cashmere, cardigans and chinos. I did help a girl last night who told me I had a great hair color, which helped the nose-diving night get a little better.
It's taken awhile, but after nearly four months of working there I finally feel like I'm part of the team (or Crew, if you will). I know people's names, they know mine, we talk while we work, I laugh and joke with them, and it feels comfortable. When I realized that I got a little scared, since this is just supposed to be a job that supports me until I find the work I really want to do. But since that might take awhile, I guess there are worse places than J. Crew. If I'm still there in a year, then there's a problem.
What a boring blog today. My deep commendation for those of you who actually made it thru. I will try to be more interesting next time!

I liked it so far. I think you will get better the more you do it. Unless you do get lazy. Then I'll just refer back to your facebook account.
