orientation was today. it was kinda boring, mostly just videos for three and a half hours. my paycheck for this week and next will be about $20, lol. then i don't have training again until 10/31, another shift on 11/1, and the last training shift on 11/6. ughhh. so my next paycheck will only be abut $80, but hopefully things will pick up after that. i'm hoping that maybe they'll decide "oh hai, you don't really need a third shift of training so here's a register" maybe on my third shift of training. i mean, how hard is it to run a register after i've done it in other stores?

i'm probably going to crosstrain for electronics a few weeks after i'm done with cashier training. there's this board next to the scheduling board where you can write down shifts you don't want for whatever reason, and someone else can come along and claim them, so if i'm trained in two areas, i can claim shifts for both areas. i already plan on claiming as many cashiering shifts as i possibly can, just cause i need the hours.

in other news, i painted my nails tonight! i did an orange base coat (wet n wild "craze") and then angled french tips in black (rimmel "black satin"), so the orange bit ends in a point. it looks pretty sweet, imo. i also painted my toenails orange and will be painting jack-o-lantern faces on them. : ) i painted my toes and the underside of my fingernails with glow in the dark top coat. woo! i keep getting my nails caught between the keys on my laptop though, and that's kind of fucking it up a little bit. they're dry though, so it's not too bad.

my paid account just ran out. : ( but i got the job at target as long as i pass the drug test, so i suppose my part of my first paycheck will go to renewing my account, lol. i still need to find khaki pants and red shirts though. i checked all the stores in batavia AND brockport, and only found one pair of passable khaki pants, so this tuesday i'm going to the galleria with mallory to have a look. they have an aero, which is supposed to have decent pants, and they also have a forever 21, which should have cheap shirts. they also have a wet seal and penney's and macy's and shit, so if i can't find anything there, there's just nothing to be found. i'm sort of annoyed that target has NO red shirts though. wtf? and they only had like one pair of khaki pants that weren't dress pants. hopefully i'll be able to find something at the galleria.

i went grocery shopping the other day and wegmans has their halloween nail polish displays out! i bought sinful colors "fiji", which is a shimmery purple, and also a glow in the dark top coat by fantasy makers, which i guess is a child label of wet n wild. the glow in the dark works relatively well, when i went to bed that night my nails were glowing a bit! it makes me want to paint some of it on the backplace of my phone, in case i drop it at night or something. the other color i bought didn't go well though. it took four coats before it was opaque, and even then, not all the nails are completely opaque. since i did a base coat and three coats of the glow in the dark, i now i have eight layers of nail polish on. :/ not pleased. normally i only have like four. i've also noticed that once you get past 4-5 layers of nail polish, including top coat, it starts to peel off more easily than if there are only 2-3 coats. so that kind of sucks. the glow in the dark is cool though, i put on three coats and it slightly changed the color of the base nail polish, it's kind of a dusty purple, but unless you saw the original bottle, you probably wouldn't know that i had on a tinted top coat. so that's cool. i plan on painting my toes orange, then using the glow in the dark top coat, then using black and painting my big toes like jack-o-lanterns. : ) since the black is going on after the glow, you'll be able to see the jack-o-lanterns in the dark, too!

i suppose that's all. i'm pretty tired, even though it's barely past one. my kitty's taken to sleeping on my bed again, so i'm going to go cuddle with her. :D
