so yeah! i planned my own midnight event for this game called destiny. i think it was pretty fun. it wasn't 100%, but it was way better than other midnights at my store. everyone was up and about, NOT standing against the wall like a bunch of losers. we had snacks, i had a bunch of random things to give away....i will make sure it's even better for the next one!
everyone lining up at the end. yes, i was totally standing on the counter. i won't lie. it is my favorite thing to do whether it's a midnight event or any time of the day.
but first let me take a selfie....(yeah i love my co-workers)
my friend's brother won second place in my tournament! the winner was the kid in the grey hoodie behind me.
the final match begins....
one of the first matches. ron filled in since we almost had enough people to fill the bracket! he's not too good at call of duty, but neither am i.
our sony rep came in and set up this nice little table and banners and stuff! we actually got the game online for customers to play through the night!
these two (above and below) were my handy work. i love to color. not that there is any fancy drawings, but at least i have nice hand writing.
yes, i realize the pictures go in backwards order (so if you start here and go up, they progress to the end of the night). i am feeling lazy after putting in lots of hours in a short time. more so just being awake for so many hours in a short time. like, monday i got up at 7:30am and didn't go to bed until tuesday at 3am. i'll be trying to catch up for the next week. at least tomorrow i don't have to work early so i can start.
i always have fun at these things. it's even better when all the customers can get excited for something like this too, and makes it all worth it. next time i will have to make cookies since i missed out this time trying to plan everything. i am pretty sure it won't be until november, but maybe if people preorder enough stuff we can do it again sooner.
in other random news, i brought satch out for a ride on tuesday, too.
yes, it's crazy bird lady time. he is so good. he just sits on my shoulder and looks at everything going by. don't worry, i was parked in the parking lot at ron's work for the picture so we were completely stationary. i would not drive with my son and take pictures, i wouldn't know what to do if anything happened to him. he is the best.
our little family photo. ♥ ♥ ♥
yeah i know. i'm stupid. deal with it. crazy bird ladies have that right.
it's funny how people get excited or weirded out by birds. i was standing by the door and a few customers would come in and out. most of them smiled and whatnot, i think one guy didn't know what to do and gave me a weird look. a few people asked about him, just because a bird in a rite aid has a certain "wow" factor, i guess. of course, a bird anywhere outside of a pet store or home is probably fascinating, so there's that.
well, since i have no more to rant about, i will leave it at that. hopefully i will have something to work with and share with you sunday. thanks for reading! ☺
