Today went by fast. I mean, one second, I was limping in to work at one o'clock, and the next I was limping home at nine thirty. Yes, you heard right, limping. The back pain has only relented enough so that I can go to work. I can stand up straight today, which is a switch from this weekend.

It was basically a delightful day. There were no offensive customers, it was slow enough that I got to read but we had one really big sale that helped us meet our day. Even though I could barely stand up straight, I had a great day. It really made me appreciate my job.

**"And now for something completely different."**

I would like everyone to know that the Lost Season 1 DVD is coming out next week. If you haven't had the pleasure of watching this fantasic show, I suggest that you run, not walk to Blockbuster and rent it. You have to watch it in order from beginning to end. I know that it will change your life as it has changed mine.

This morning I watched horrifying footage of Hurricane Katrina as it hit land along the Gulf Coast. it made me very worried about my friend, Trey, who lives in Louisiana. I didn't know what part of the state he lived in, so I Googled it. I learned that he lives in the northern part of the state, so hopefully his missed out on most of the worst of it. Please pray for the people who live down there. The stuff on TV this morning was pretty scary.

That's basically it for me. Have a good night everyone,
