And hey, this time it wasn't even a full moon!

I'm on holiday for two weeks. I am kind of missing my coworkers, but I'll tell you something - I won't miss the madness.

Seriously. People are asking for weirder things all the time. These are from the past two weeks.

• I had a man ask us if we had copies of Microsoft Office he could borrow to install on his computer. (um, illegal much?) (This is, sadly, really common. People are just not getting the whole copyright thing.)
  

• And a kid tell me that she had a project to do about Canada and did I have any magazines she could cut up? NO!
  

• Another woman asked for books on not bullying. I gave her a few good picture books on the topic. She came back to say that these were about bullying, and she needed ones on NOT bullying...

• I was also asked for Advil for a headache. I told her I could not give drugs out to patrons, even if I had some. It's not drugs, she argued, it's medicine. Um, that would be drugs, lady. Argh.

• And then there was the man whose car got stuck in the (well-signed) parking lot he was not supposed to park in and came in to ask if we could help him push his car out. Me, I do think my duties for manual labour stop at the door.

And now, with my shopping only one store and one elusive sweater away from done, I am going to enjoy those days off, even if they are supposed to include family gatherings (with lots of their own mad potential), house cleaning, construction, and so on. 'salright. Tonight, I go and watch my Pumpkinpie sing.
