Smoothie kick

I'm on a smoothie kick. I cannot seem to keep my bananas very long in this apartment (it gets on the hot side) and I can eat only so many (like ONE) in one day. I've got tons of frozen fruits now. Blend em all up! Actually I made some kind of strawberry/pineapple smoothie. But it had apples and a banana and blueberries in it too. I used apple juice and passion fruit juice (which by the way is NOT easy to find). It tasted pretty good I must say.

Tomorrow we'll try something new.

I'm really disgusted at humans. Granted, I can understand the occasional pieces of popcorn that fall to the ground in the movie theater, but MUST you dump the entire bag on the ground? Or leave your trash all over the place? That's just completely and utterly......hell I can't even come up with the word. Actions are really telling.........

While I was cleaning out the Ratatouille theater (that's where ALL the mess seems to be, and I don't even want to hear that it's messy because of CHILDREN), these two older couples were in there. THey were so funny. After I swept up the mountain of popcorn everywhere I left and brought in the trash can to dump everyone's cans and sodas and bags that people can't seem to take with them out of the theater and put in the garbage can next to the door (but I ramble). The one little old lady had her feet up on the seat. She quickly put them down and said "I'm sorry MOM I won't do it again." I just thought it was funny. THey were a riot. I hope I don't get all crotchety in my old age, I hope I'm as fun and happy as these people were. THey were just going on about stuff like Linsay Lohan, The Olson Twins (because the slides were running with quotes from popular people etc.), then they got to talking about the old folks' home. For a moment I thought maybe they had snuck out of there.......IT was a refreshing part of my day.

That and the fact that I made an extra $1.26 while cleaning the theater. Yay me! LOL

Now that I clean up there, I don't want to clean here. Nice eh? But I like to be busy. And if I don't clean there isn't much to do besides start movies. And I don't want to sit in the office watching the boss. Plus no one really talks to me (or actually I found out they talk ABOUT me). Which doesn't bother me really, but then I get bored. And as I see it, if people talk about me, that means they are thinking about me. Whether its' good or bad, I'm on their mind. I made sure I let one of my 'spies' know this so they can relay back. I figured that the girl I had it out with was the one bad mouthing me. But no, it is one of the staff leaders (like me). Which is actually funny really because I can't stand her. TUrns out she doesn't like working with me because she doesn't like the way my eyes look at her. Hmmm. And this coming from a person who freely admitted she was all psychotic and had to be sent to the looney bin for three days. Then comes back heavily doped up.......Yea ok. She's a winner in my book!

What would happen if the world would actually come out and speak their mind? Really. I don't mean in a mean or nasty way. FOr instance, on several occasions I HAVE spoken my mind. Of course people don't like to hear that they are not liked by someone for whatever reason.

What I would like to do is just put things out in the open. Because this talking about other people behind backs is just childish. Granted, I do it, on occasion, but I don't gossip and I don't tell others how I feel about someone else, because I realize they in turn tell someone else who in turn tells someone else. Well you know how it goes. SO I've learned to keep things to myself unless I am ok with someone knowing something. So I usually will tell them directly before I tell other people. On occasion this hasn't gotten me good marks but why fucking 'pretend'? So if I feel that urge, I may just tell this wannabe stripper (that's what she says she is going to do while still working at the theater. Oh honey if I was stripping and making that kind of money, there's no way I'd stay working at the theater for a measly few dollars an hour. This is how warped she is. But apparently that hasn't worked out because she is working nights at the theater), that the feeling is mutual, that I don't like her (something about her I didn't like when I first started, and usually my instincts are correct) and don't want to work with her either. We are scheduled together Thursday. I need a day off this week.........

If someone has a problem with me, sure I might take offense at first, but I'd rather know, than wonder why the fuck they ignore me when I'm talking directly to them in front of their face. That's just fucking rude. Had a nurse do that. I'd speak to her and she' would walk right on by. Eventually I stopped speaking to her. Oh but when she needed something from me? Yea, I'd walk on by. Until she was forced to say my name or something to get my attention. I don't play like that. I don't care what problems you have in your life, there is NO reason to be outright ignorant and rude to people.

BUt at the theater turns out not one person likes one of the staff leaders. TUrns out he is the boss's best friend. He's called his Bitch haha. The boss wasn't happy when he heard that and said if anyone called his friend that he'd fire them. Oh what a mature boss I have. Least he gives me the courtesy of ASKING me to do something instead of demanding like he does others. Age does have it's privelidges (however you spell that word).

Ok think that's about it. Enough of my rant. It's swelteringly hot here and I have no AC in the truck. Makes for a wonderful WONDERFUL ride to work!

Our supermarket sells frozen mixed fruit in a bag. When I get on the smoothie kick, I buy a bag and blend 'em up. Sometimes I'll put some vanilla ice cream in it - which completely ruins the health benefits, but who cares?

Yeah - so what is it about movie theaters that makes people such pigs? I guess it's the dark, but for some reason people feel like they can just leave their crap on the floor for somebody else (you) to clean up. It's a strange custom.
Of course, they do the same thing at the ballpark, so maybe it isn't the lighting - maybe they're just pigs?
