today has been the busy. lots of banking in the last day of the year and all. i sent out christmas presents to amy and kirsten today so watch your mail ladies. tia and i worked as a seamless team today, which was totally weird but hopefully we'll get some credit for it. they give awards and stuff to people who work well together. working here is like being in first grade where you get treats for all the good things you do except it's money instead of stickers. i'm still listening to bridget jones diary and i've started to keep a diary in the pretty indian book my mom got me last christmas. i think it's mostly due to bridget jones' influence and partly to having pointless things in my apartment and trying to stop. there for i must use all of the things in my apartment. like the pasta pots. and the waffle iron. and the bread board. sheesh. so it's oddly warm and beautiful and is not at all a bad scary winter here in maine. not to say i'd like a bad scary winter...but it just seems odd. i was expecting something so much more scary. i'm sure by april i won't have been disapointed. we have a half hour left and we're practically counting the minutes. every other bank closed at three and here we still are...with NO customers. sigh.
