Ever have one of those days? Well, My friend Environgirl had one yesterday and for all those inhabitants of retail hell, you should check it out. She lays it out and as always is funny as hell while doing it.

So I finally got the details of the TV thing going on in my store next week. It is a show that should air on TLC sometime around next January. They are calling it "Look at me now" currently. It is about 12 teens who went to fitness camp this summer and the girl coming to my store lost 20 pounds. I have to sign a release since I am the one who will be helping her and may end up on camera.  I won't even know for 5-6 months if I will even show up on tape... Wild!

So I survived the 1st day of Tax free weekend with a minimum of psychotic people and stress... Let see how the next two days go... By the way... What up with getting 21 boxes of stock in today at 3:30pm?

Nurture the darkness of your soul
until you become whole.
Can you do this and not fail?
Can you focus your life-breath until you become
supple as a newborn child?
While you cleanse your inner vision
will you be found without fault?
Can you love people and lead them
without forcing your will on them?
When Heaven gives and takes away
can you be content with the outcome?
When you understand all things
can you step back from your own understanding?

Giving birth and nourishing,
making without possessing,
expecting nothing in return.
To grow, yet not to control:
This is the mysterious virtue.
