THIS IS NOT AN APRIL FOOL'S DAY JOKE POST

 It absolutely is not. It just seems like one. 

What happened to March? March 2026 was a lovely month, with a minimum of drama. It just scooted away, quick like a bunny. 

Feeling totally like an April Fool's Day joke is our now-penniless state here at the bookstore. The pennies are gone from the tills, and from now on, when we give change in cash, it'll be rounded up to the nearest five cents. So, what do we do with our pennies now? Do we accept pennies from customers? Rounding up just feels wrong and weird. Hopefully the next POTUS will pull a Mormon Prophet and change everything back to the way it was when the current guy goes out. 

Okay, back to counting my penniless tills (it's just so strange).

9:34 AM: Watching the Lincoln City webcam on my computer monitor - it's stormy over there today, so it's mostly gray and wet-looking. Bleah to that. 

I think I'll write a March recap. (type type type) Okay, done.

11:57 AM: Boss Lady was ON ONE today. Kyle left early, he was so angry. Damn, woman, you're amazingly good at pissing off your employees! 

After reading that my curling iron is turning my white hair yellow (and my brown eyes blue), I decided to stop using it, and go back to using the purple shampoo that's supposed to brighten my hair. I came home from work, chatted with the kids, and hopped in the tub for the shampoo - I'm supposed to leave it on my hair for 5 minutes and doing that in the shower is a pain in the butt. We'll see how this goes.
