I see all these end of the year movie lists talking about their favorites, but I don’t see a single good movie on there! They’re all so depressing. Who would want to see a movie about the Queen? If it had Diana alive in it, I would be first in line. And I’ve never even heard of Babble. James Bond is good, but I haven’t gotten around to seeing that yet. I’ve been real busy w/work and my plantar’s warts, so I’ve been home a lot. But!my favorite movie of the year was Happy feet. Gerry took me and his girlfriend’s daughter and I loved it more than she did?!?! It had Robin Williams in it! He is the funniest man on the planet, hands down. And I like tap dancing, too, even if it is penguins. This should win an Oscar for cuteness, funniness, and best dancing. Why don’t they have those categories/!? Everyone should email Oscar and ask for a dancing award!?1

Im getting really tired of the candy bars getting smaller but the prices staying the same. I try to tell people at the cash register about Snickers being smaller than it used tobe but the same price and they just sort of look at me. But Im angry about it,are you?

I was looking through the photos in the 1 hour photo bin (some real nice ones for the holidays, that Johnson girl sure has a fine looking family, I do say) and found this receipt stuck between the ‘J’s and the H’s. That nice young man must have forgotten it when he was here last. Hope he doesn’t need it for his taxes and such heh heh. My son Gerry has a fit if I misplace any of his receipts for his taxes. “Old cold scatterbrain lost the receipt again,” I can hear him now. Anyhoo – if the nice young man is reading this, I’ve got the receipt if you need it.snyder-receipt.jpg

Just this afternoon, I was saying to a ginger gal in line:  Can you believe we already have all that lovey dovey stuff? –OH you got a reeal deal on theses suppose-sitories here, I love  bargain!! – - yep here comes the smoochy and and the rubby dubby lovey.  And me still nursing corns from staying open all night on Christmas Eve.  Or as my son likes to ccall it Christmas Slave because he thinks they work me too hard here, HA!  But I don’t mind and I certainly don’t feel like a slave, slavery was awful and everbody like Time and a half n half, even my son because that means…CHA CHING more presents.  You have  a real good day now.  NEXT.  Okay and what do we have here.. looks like a LOT gate o aid.  Looks like your gate needs aiding.  who parteed 2 much, huh? Who is a partyer?? Hold on. “PRICE CHECK ON GATE O AID FOR MR. PAR TEE ER!!”  just joshin I got that sku memorized. (I love to give the customers a ribbing!)  Real good now, come back soon.

They have lots of nice stuff at Snyders after Christmas that are really discounted. I got a Santa kitty for my tree next year and it was only three dollars and it was just darling!!!! Teresa got a box of candy canes for a dollar and gave them to everyone on her break with a note that said “glad the holi-daze are over!” Too true! I should get something for my son for next year. Gerry likes cars. Maybe a Richard petty ornament would be fun — there are a ton on for 60 percent off. He’d probably just lose it or throw it away. He’d say “Mom! We don’t need more of this crap!” Ha ha. He’s right, but it’s just too cute to pass up a Santa kitty.

Oh my good buddy put in his notice at his job at United the airline and then they found a bleeding ulcer in his stomach and it was another 20 days at United. Heh hehe,too bad!!@

Hi I’m Colleen and i Work at Snyder’s in Minnesota. Me and my friends at work always say they should make a Tv show about our work because it’s so crazy, and I read about these blogs in Time last week so I thought Id start one to tell you about some of the crazy things that happen there!!

I was ringing up some milk Duds and Twizzlerz today and told this guy:

  Oh my is it hot in here today or what?  I know its not the hot flashes, cause I’m well past that age, heh, heh,.  I’m usually too cold now, the old cold corpse, yep, the old cold corpse, that’s what my son calls me at home, I’m the old cold corpse, I’m always cold and he’s always hot.  All righty then here you go, b-bye.
