January 12th, 2025: My final day of my work week, I woke up early for work and had more cereal. The bus ride to work was ok, work consisted of me stocking the beverage cooler again before I was told by Jesse to start counting the inventory with a scanner. I remember hearing Folsade say something about when she was 17 or something. Both Lebanon and Copper complimented me on my outfit today, which consisted of black dress pants, a belt, and a turquoise button up shirt that was tucked in. I actually went on lunch kind of early, at 12:00pm instead of 12:30pm because I didn't have anything to do then, I went to the owner of the store and I didn't see his friend Mr. Medici, so I asked him where he was and the owner said:
"Oh he'll be here soon!"
I then went on my lunch break and had my calabrian gnocci. During my lunch, Copper asked me what I was having and if it was good and I told him that I enjoyed it, I joked around with fAsherah a bit more by closing the hard to open door. After that I just continued on with scanning items. I asked Lizzo how she was doing and she said that she was having issues with her family dealing with her father, the whole story is that her family has had chickens ever since she was 6 years old and Lizzo poured a lot of love into them but her father, who she described as a narcissist, was pretty neglectful, which resulted in multiple stories of them being neglected, such as chicken feed being left out to rot, eggs being uncollected which resulted in chicks hatching and rotten eggs, and a story about a chicken being attacked which resulted in part of its skull being exposed where her father reacted by putting the chicken in a box in the basement to "mercy kill it" but it survived, she also said she never found out about these things until she goes home for break. After the whole extremely long text about her chickens she then texts me:
<Now I'm trying to rehome the chickens and get them to someone who actually cares. Not only does he not care about them, he doesn't respect the care I put into them and how much I love them.
So I talked to her about my mom’s friend Addison and her large collection of chickens (and some ducks too) and she could adopt them from her, she then replied:
<Thanks for the offer, but unless they live near where I do, the drive would be too long.
Although I don’t think that we aren’t that far from each other. I then got done with some of my work early so I just decided to chill around for a bit before doing my closing tasks. I got done with those a bit early and decided to chill a bit more before clocking out, buying some Jordan Almonds, and heading home. I got a text from my mom which said:
<Hey, give me a call when you get home from work tonight.
And I did when I got home, it was mostly about internships that she wanted me to apply to. I then walked to church and I tried to go to the bathroom early on but one of the choir singers, more specifically the one who worked at the bankruptcy firm, walked out and said that the toilet was already flooded. The sermon was ok, the priest talked about being a teacher at the Catholic school and Joseph was serving as an acolyte, and afterwards the priest asked for help with taking stuff down, I started with taking off the baubles from the Christmas tree with Raphael, Raphaela, and their son, there was also this woman who was there who was playing the piano once who was in her mid 30s and unmarried from the looks of it, whom I will be calling Liseuxa, and she was a social worker, she seemed pretty nice to me and helped me take stuff down to the basement. After that I went home and did some more programming for the retake and then went to bed.
