Chloroform Days - Cammy's journal from the end of the Multiverse

Didn't mean to leave this so dour so long...

Boy, I think that last post deserves an update! There's been some spicy new developments, all for the positive, and I'll have to start a new journal page if I wait any longer. Came into work on Thursday to as close to an apology you'll get from a two-faced ratfuck manager (and I'm not the only one there who thinks of him like that). "I was driving home that night, and I realized that you were really just doing what you were told." Yuh-huh, boyo. "Neither of us were necessarily wrong." Correct Read more

Oh, Maggie, I couldn't have tried any more

Y'know how sometimes life turns in a weird direction? Yeah, that kinda just happened to me. My store's in chaos at the moment.

I'd like to start off this journal entry by eulogizing the PhotoCam. Just—my entire saga with it has been a shitshow. I literally had a working one eat itself on Tuesday. Let me list off all the attempts at getting a single working camera so far: The first one didn't power on and had a battery door that wouldn't stay closed. The second one was never shipped and eBay wound up refunding my purchase automatically. The third one was a Pretec DC-600, and its battery door won't stay closed, but at Read more

The photos came out alright too

And so we begin a happy new year, random visitors to cammy.somnol. I know the people at the store are ringing in 2023 in style; had a guy sitting in the cafe for three hours drinking Natural Ice and nursing a bottle of Xanax, pacing very bizarrely and apparently buying lots of cigars. There was another one at the store today (day off but we had to run in for milk) pressed up against the glass window in the front, staring and making faces. I'll admit, I did not end off 2022 the healthiest Read more
