I've been Christmas shopping.

I forgot how much I love Christmas shopping, actually- only remembered just now. It's funny, it's this really Zen state you enter where you're wandering through town- the best thing to do is to work out, beforehand, at least one present, preferably one you're going to have to go to several locations to complete (I usually have a couple like this.) So you make a list of names, then you go after this present running the names over in your head. And what you get- seriously- is you get moments of epiphany. I do, anyway. I had a really good one today, I think. :D Find out this Thursday, but I think it's a pretty good one... :) So that's why I lvoe it, because for these moments you jsut feel SO good, because you know you're getting something that someone's gonna love. Beats making a list, too, because it always ends up way more personal.

I do like shopping. :D

Byt the way, guess who came into the shop today and said "I kenw you worked here, I've been reading your journal?"

Guess.

Everyone's favourite stalker conservative Wellington College boy.

That's right.

It was STEVE. *shakes*

I dunno. I was actually a little bit uncomfortable with that- not him reading it (although I can think of people I'd prefer to have reading my journal) but the idea of this guy, who I don't dislike but don't know very well and who has, let's face it, been a real bastard to people close to me, reading my journal and never commenting once. It's... disturbing.

Anyway, he said I should read his, but he didn't give me an address- he shouted out what sounded like "teenage blunder dot blogspot dot com." I THINK that was it. But I tried all those variants and found nothing so, Steve, if you're reading this, be a darling and tell us your addy, will you?>

Heh, no, it's okay. How many armed hold-ups do we have in NZ anyway, esp during the day in the middle of the city?

(The policy, anyway, is "Give them whatever the fuck they ask for, don't be a sumbass and don't be a hero, jsut DO EVERYTHING THEY SAY." So I'm definitely okay with that. :o )

No deflecting bullets off OTHER bullets like Apu ;)

Besides, hands that touch guns will never touch mine. EVAH.

The armed holdup thing? A few years ago about six or so peopel were shot dead in Auckland by one guy running around holding up banks and service stations.

We're not that safe here...

Thats the same policy absolutely everywhere has. Don't die, give them everything.

Its amazing what the fleeting glance you got before the gun appeared will stick when you're being questioned later. Apparantly.

1. Auckland (I'm sorry, Auckland really is more dangerous than Wellkington, street-crime wise)

2. A few years ago is the last armed hold-up you can recall? That sounds pretty safe to me. I mean no job nlike mine is risk-free, obviously, that's a no-brainer, but I nevertheless don't feel I need to stress myself out about as long as I know the Procedure (;)) and keep my head at the time.

Mmm, I guess. After they leave we have to lock doors and make sure all the customers stick around, i guess for that reason... *shrug*

2. No, that's the last *fatal series of holdups* I can recall.

I just meant we aren't some sort of paradise. We are very much safer than other places in the world.

It's not a big deal in the end.

2. Oh. Well. Still.

Oh, I know that. *eyeroll* I'm not totally blind and overconfident.

Yeah. :)
