I've been super boring over the last couple of months, but things have actually been happening recently?
Anyway, I currently have a temp position at TJ Maxx, which is delightful because retail during the holidays is never delightful. And I'll admit I'm a little nervous over the fact that apparently they aren't going to provide us any real training until our first shift—I think I'll be okay, but after having a job where they actually provide training before you jump into work, it left me feeling a little unsettled. Orientation was on Thursday and I have a namebadge and a store discount and everything.
Yesterday, Dad and I had lunch and went to see Silent Hill: Revelation. I enjoyed myself, actually, although I think it was a bad movie.![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
dungeonmarm wanted to go to a haunted house after he got off work, so once we stopped being lazy, the two of us and ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
evanjeline went to a local one, where we chatted for fifteen minutes or so while we waited in line, discovered that evanjeline had never been to a haunted house at all, and then got paired with another group of three before we headed in.
It was fun, if nothing spectacular to write home about. I have apparently lost my ability to be scared by haunted houses, but the two girls in the other half of our party made up for that, because they were either really terrified or having a lot of fun pretending they were scared. After that, we had a late dinner at IHOP, and then went to my place, wheredungeonmarm complained about being too tired to drive, and I was too tired to care.
We have plans today to make it up to Little Rock for a 9:00pm showing of The Rocky Horror Picture Show (participation kits included. :DDD) so that should be fun.
