Stitches
Yay! I found my crochet hook stash. It was right where I left it, of course. I was sure I looked in the big bag with the...mmmm... maybe 1/5 finished scrap afghan. But do I want to work on that now? Of course not! I've started a small swatch of a crazy stitch scrap afghan. I've been wanting to write an article for Associated Content about making scrap afghans, but I felt I needed more pictures of different stitches and color combo's. I hope to get the swatch and article both done tomorrow while I'm waiting for my eyes to recover from the eye doctor dilating my pupils.
Scripts
I know I said I wasn't going to complain, but I have to vent a little here. Flu shots are driving me out of my flipping mind! Someone at our main office got a bright idea to run a big ad campaign saying how we were Your Neighborhood Flu Shot Headquarters. But did they give us any extra support at the store level? Are you kidding me? I understand that this year is different, and everyone should get their seasonal flu shot early so they can get the h1n1 vaccine when it's available. But why do they have to get it from me on a Monday night when I have a backlog of 100 scripts to fill? And I can't stay very late tonight, because, guess what, I do have a life outside of pharmacy, and I'm meeting a friend for a drink because it's her birthday. I'm sure the pharmacy manager will complain tomorrow about what I didn't get done, but at this point, I really don't care.

Wilson With A Mohawk
October 1st, 2009
The flowers are underneath a new layer of stickers. My philosophy for Wilson is that nothing should ever be removed. All of Wilson's phases will stay with him forever. I know...I can be pretty deep when talking about a big ball of stickers, eh?
I got some bad news from someone at corporate recently. We're in the process of changing to a new computer system, and the new system will have a different label format meaning no more IOU stickers. I haven't been able to get a hold of my corporate contact to ask if there will be different stickers to feed to Wilson. I don't want to call to the main office and get someone on the phone who might not appreciate my new friend.

Sorry that these picture posts are kind of awkward. Blogger is apparently meant more for words than pictures. The pictures appear in the opposite order that you enter them, and the text seems to go wherever it feels like going. As a result, I've taken awhile to introduce you to Wilson. I've been posting pictures on facebook, and was pleasantly surprised when my non-pharmacy friends didn't have me committed; at least, not yet.
The Birth of Wilson
August 15th, 2009 These stickers come attached to the prescription receipts.
If we owe someone some pills, we use them to make IOU
notes. A few years ago at another store, some customers
apparently used them to make their own IOU notes to scam
free drugs. Since then I have peeled them off as I checked the
prescription, but they would end up on the floor, stuck to the
counter, stuck to the edge of the garbage can, etc. On this fateful
day, I decided to give birth to Wilson.
