Errata.

I'm not even sure what "errata" even means. And I'm too lazy to go look it up. Today I'm using it to mean "random things."

There's a new gang of thieves that have been hitting the B&N. A different guy every day, but all stealing in the same way (handing DVD sets over the wall by the escalator). So every day when I go in I wonder, "What got stolen yesterday?" I have been using the video to figure out who they are and how they're doing it, and I actually have caught two of the guys and kicked them out, but I still worry that they're going to keep coming back. So today's my day off but I'm worrying about work, and I'll probably stop by the B&N when I go to the gym, just to go through the video to see if anything got stolen last night. Sigh.

Other than that, not much going on. Jeannie started her new job on Tuesday, and seems to be having somewhat mixed feelings. She likes the people that she's met, but she seems to not like the design or building materials for the houses that they're actually building. But maybe, in the course of her job, she can work to make the design and materials better, yes? I think she's going to end up really loving this job, once she feels comfortable enough to dig into the deep stuff. But, she has only worked there 2 days, so at this point she's just learning names and figuring out where to eat lunch and shit like that. She said she's feeling a bit underwhelmed and overwhelmed at the same time.

And now for the "errata":

I don't know if you hop over to Old Aunt Amy's blog regularly, but if you don't you should go look at this picture. It makes me happy every time I see it.

A few weeks ago, Jeannie and I were looking up menus online for restaurants close to our house. We came across this wedsite for the Paper Moon Diner, which we both found pretty hypnotic. I love its simplicity.


****EDIT****

Ok, because I'm a sucker for grammar and usage I went and looked up errata and it turns out I'm a dummy and I'm using it totally wrong. But you know what? I'm gonna leave it so that in a few years when I'm really smart I can look back and have a big laugh at what a moron I was.
