The more I drink this the more it grows on my, and the more I want to drink it. What a vicious cycle (though luckily I bought 100g a few days ago, so I’m totally stocked up)! Anyway, I made this in the morning to take with me while I finished merchandising the store. I actually didn’t end up drinking until the bus ride home and by then it was cold, but it was really good. A little bit bitter but that’s because it sat so long (with a few little bits and tea leaves in the bottom that the strainer didn’t get out), and it wasn’t enough to make it unenjoyable.
We actually finished merchandising the store early though, which I was both happy and sad about. It was predicted we’d take 6 hours before set up would be complete and they could officially open, but it only took the three of us working (there were 5 for most of yesterday, but 7 by the end of the shift) three hours to finish up. I’m glad, because boxes of calendars are heavier than you would think, and my arms were getting sore, but also kinda sad because I could have used three more hours of pay.
Also, I got to shelve approx. 250 calendars relating to specific dog breeds. It really sucked because they were completely mixed up and out of order in the boxes but I had the shelve them alphabetically. It took forever. I swear, I don’t want to look at another dog for the rest of the week (except I’m gonna have to on Monday or Tuesday when I do stock/merchandising for the store I’ll actually be working in).
As a reward (and since we left at noon) for finishing really and working hard, I decided to spend the money I had set aside for lunch from the food court on tea instead, since the bus ride is only twenty minutes and DAVIDsTEA is so close to Calendar Club (plus, I’ll be working at a different location now so I’m not sure exactly when I’ll have a chance to head back out there). I wanted to pick up another Mate so I have more variety for breakfast on early morning when I have to get up, which will be happening much more frequently now. I got Main Squeeze, so I’ll be logging that pretty shortly.
