So apparently it’s November 11. Wasn’t there supposed to be a giant moment of silence or something? I almost forgot, but then our fax machine crapped out at 11:11 so I went to my computer and noticed the time. Naturally I thought of Constantine first. But then I remembered the poppy I found on the ground yesterday. So that was pretty cool, but I still think its odd how everyone, in my office at least, just continued about his or her business like normal. I was talking about this with my mom the other day, saying that this should be a day off, because a whole day to remember would be better, plus there’s no stat in November. She said that people wouldn’t remember and they would just take it as a day off to party. Though that may be true, when I get a free day off, I usually wake up and go "sweet shit i'm in bed, thank you -insert statutory holiday reason here-" as opposed to showing up to work like any other day, and just barely realizing its an important day.
Anyways, I just found out that the job I have to do is actually much simpler than I originally thought, so i’m going to go get that done so I can leave here today even earlier. Huzzah. I’m excited
ps. I got my jacks mannequin shirt in. i’m real happy. Except this one is missing the asterisk on the back. I’m just happy to have something to show my love for the mannequin.
