So... I know I never post anymore... but... I've had a really busy relatively stressful last couple of months. And I haven't really been able to talk about what has been consuming most of my life of late.

But, I can talk about it now.

So... as of this week, I'm the Store Manager of the Large and Viewed as Evil by Many Corporate Bookstore that I work at... I'm still a little stunned by this turn of events myself.

Weirdly, I have Katrina to thank for it more than anything else. My store manager was pulled out of our store shortly after the storm to help with aiding employees of and helping reopen our two stores that were pretty much devastated by the storm. And he was gone for months. And we got grazed by a hurricane ourselves during that time. Evidently, I did a really good job of keeping things running well (not to mention saving tens of thousands of dollars worth of merchandise with my wonderful pre-Rita preparations).

So, yeah... that's my big news... Sorry, Dave, I guess I'm officially The Man now...
