And then, sometimes, there's callers like this:

Customer: Could you possibly send three of those?
Melle: Sure, no problem at all.
Customer: You are the woman!

*beam* Am The Woman! Woohoo! He also praised me for being up and cheerful at 8:15 in the morning, bless him. Hee. Clearly, I am Queen of Customer Service. All shall love me and despair! (Wonder if I can put that on my CV, heh.)

(Also, OMG there is a new kid in the department who looks like a young, extra-skinny Bob Geldof. *tries not to stare*)

Link of the Day: The Gospel of Judas. I'll just sit in this corner over here and flail for a bit, thanks.

And now, we meme! First of all, ( the answers to that character meme. )

Gacked from telesilla: Rec-Go-Round: Rec me one story you've written that you're proud of, any genre, here on my LJ. Then go forth and ask the same in yours.

From various people: Go to Wikipedia and look up your birthday (excluding the year). List three neat facts, two births and one death in your journal, including the year.

Three neat facts:
1860 - South Carolina becomes first state to secede from the United States.
1951 - Nuclear power first harvested when EBR-1 powers four light bulbs.
2005 - 2005 New York City transit strike: New York City's Transport Workers Union Local 100 goes on strike, shutting down all New York City Subway and Bus services. (Sorry folks, my bad!)

Two births:
1946 - Uri Geller, Israeli psychic (This amuses me far more than it probably should. Heeee!)
1980 - Ashley Cole, English footballer (... He's exactly my age? Gah, I hate it when people my age or younger are massively successful, it makes me look like a failure.)

One death:
1968 - John Steinbeck, American writer, Nobel Prize laureate (b. 1902)
