Feel The Horror...meet Barnsie, the Barnes and Noble mascot this holliday season. We had our annual Christmas meeting this past Sat at 6:30 AM. Needless to say, it was an utter and complete waste of time, lest you desperatly need to know where all 800 copies of the new Dr. Phil book will be displayed...at least they had donuts and coffee for us which is really the least they can do after we've sold our souls to this damn company.We were given "Barnsie Bucks" for answering inane trivia questions about books and the store..Sadly, as you can see, I am a gigantic tool and answered correctly. See, you can turn in your buck for some crap ass advance copies of books, which in reality are free and usually just sit in our lounge collecting dust in a cardboard box...no matter...the real star this year is Barnsie and already he has had many a great adventure... his promo kit shows him enjoying tea in the cafe and reading Hemmingway..."he has a thirst for fine literature...and loves to curl up with a good book"...oh...my...dad! I can't believe this is my reality...anyhow....we have a huge Barnsie(who retails for $500-a bargain if I do say so myself) and he must weigh about 200 lbs. He was on display on the third foor, sitting on a wooden stool which was a stupid idea at best b/c there really wasn't any room for him there, but he was near the cafe, which as you damn well know is one of his most favorite palces...it was kinda funny seeing all the Japaneese tourists waving at him and taking pictures...a couple of Fridays ago, he fell, face down,  and it took 3 of us to lift him back up to his stool...the following Saturday, a kid was tugging on him and Barnsie fell on top of him!!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!! The kid was  unharmed, but I think it probably scarred the shit out of him...just imagine being, like, five and having a huge bear in khakis fall on top of you!!! What's even more alarming is that several of my co-workers have fallen prey to the evil Barnsie and have purchased the $19.95 version of him b/c he "speaks to them" I'm perplexed....

Hi everyone. This is my first post of inane ramblings and stories from the sea....Today was eventful....I hung out with the incomparable Leti Ruiz who fed me really good cake and, like, everything else in her fridge untill I practically burst. Then (cause I'm a masochist) we went to get more food from the Korean Market, named some grumpy fish and discovered a magical Ramen ingridient called Seatangle (?)Yes ladies and gentlemen, I am a rock star! Untill the next time....xanga
