up the down escalator

November 20th, 2008 at 04:32 am

Saving log - $4 tip box
Spending log - $9 lunch

Watching a guy do a very frugal 15 sec stair step workout. It wasn't busy, so he ran up the down escalator.

We got all of our temp staff here and orientated. Orientation included food, so I didn't have to tear into my breakfast/ energy bar stock. I got a little SBC coffee card which I will hold in reserve. Plastic in the bank, as it were.

Put my tip box squeezings in for this month.

Made the Thanksgiving Day plans - we are eating with the Duvall friends. It made sense because if they come here, they have to put the poultry away for the night (otherwise the free ranging cougar gets her own Thanksgiving) or they have to come here early to leave early to put the poultry away. When it gets dark at 5pm, it puts a crimp in the festivities.

    OMG, I was at the mall with an extremely energetic 20 year old family friend who is a dancer. He has a thing about the down escalators (shouldn't those be descalators?) and dances all the way down! He also has a trick to stop the down escalator! Yah! Scared me to death. Don't know if he has a trick to deal with mall security who surely one of these days will nab him for his choreography. Maybe he could parlay his talent into a job: Escalator dance shows, sequins and all, to entertain the holiday shoppers.

    Yikes! I really don't like escalators. I use them when I have to, but am ultra careful about it. They just seem like such an easy way to get oneself really hurt.
