so, i really enjoyed today. it was a very FULL day of training. chris and i woke up at 6:30, arrived at the carmel location for training by 10 am, and set to work, completing our days around the 7:30pm area. it was amazing, and our trainer mike is wonderful, and i really enjoyed the customer service in the realm of retail. clothing stores are much more my niche than banks, that's for sure. and it was the coolest feeling to know i was learning how to be a manager. there were a few things i got lost on during all the expansive closing procedures, but a few more times and i'm sure i'll be on the ball.
it was so awful though; the one draw-back was that jack had to be in his cage ALL DAY! but he was super-excited to see us when we got home, and methinks he didn't hold anything against us. (he's snoring right now, by the way. what a cutie.)
chris and i had a nice heart-to-heart last night. i hope we can learn how to slowly respect each other's space. we're just so used to being so close and up in each other's business that our individuality was never even questioned. i don't know. i think we'll get better here soon.
ok, and happy halloween. no, i know it's not halloween yet, but man, do i have a story for you! chris and i went to a couple of haunting grounds on friday night. it was the creepiest (and craziest!) thing ever. the first was the main street bridge in downtown fort wayne where you're supposed to see a white-gowned lady walk around sometimes. i MAY have caught a glimpse of her, but we were so hopped up on our own irrational fears that i could have made that one up.
and then we went more north in fort wayne, off of dupont, to search for this valley in a road on griffin street where it is said that if you put your car in park at the base of this valley, an inexplicable force will push you up the hill. so, it is pitch black, not a light around and we're freaking out and feeding off of each other's wigging out, but we do it. we put the car in park in the deep of the valley. and we wait.
.........................................and i swear to you, there was a spirit that passed in front of the vehicle. days later it's hard to believe, but we know what we saw, even though we try to explain the phenomenon away by saying it was just a very definitive form of barb's exhaust...that came out of the woods?? needless to say i've had some really crazy dreams the last few nights. maybe tonight i'll have a more sound sleep! i still can't believe we actually did it. and apparently plans have already been made to go back when shaun comes here around thankgiving so we can "investigate". great. can't wait. sheesh.
i think that's a full update.
more to come soon hopefully...
