paper paper paper

im getting a blister on my finger from all the cutting out i've been doing today.
working on envelopes to go with notecards to post in my store.



its been raining a lot lately so i havent had a chance to get outside and take some pictures. but i'll get there, eventually.


and on an unrelated note, skins is an awesome show. they're about halfway through the series on sbs at the moment. have been listening to the soundtrack today and its fun.

dsylexic today

having one of those days.
today at work i kept reading the number 9 as 4. i was trying to call customers and kept getting told that 'this number is unavailable'.
and even when somebody helpfully pointed out that they were 9s, not 4s, i still did it.
in my defense though, the 9s looked a hell of a lot like the way i write my 4s.
on top of that, my manger pulled the 'hey, you're short!' card and told me that he likes to put things up high so that children don't mess with them, and that i should be the one testing out if they're up high enough.

oh yes. the joys of working in retail.

and. something is up with australia post.
seriously.
every time i go in there to post something - usually, the exact same thing as the week before, i get charged differently. today it cost me less than $10 to post four letters, three to america (and one to perth). the other day it cost me $10 just for one to amercia.
im beginning to think that they just charge whatever the hell they feel like charging, because there doesn't appear to be any sort of logic behind it.

anyway.
i got a whole stack of new paper for envelopes, and i'm looking to get some sticker paper to make stationery kits.

and there are no new listings for today because i had to go to work.
i fail at setting goals.
