Lights Out!

For those of you that don't know I have a second job at a store in the Chandler Mall called Trade Secret. It is the same store Courtney works in doing hair but she now works at Fiesta Mall. Well like most people I hate Monday but I hate it even more because I have to work both my jobs that day! Today when I went into work Courtney was there getting a color and cut by her friend Katie who works in my store. We are all standing around chatting (yeah, that is what I do at work....jealous!) when all of a sudden all the lights go out!!!!

Here is the salon with only the one emergency light.......scary!!!!
Apparently, one whole side of the mall (top and bottom) had some electrical issue and all the stores had no power. I was super excited because I thought we could close the store and go home!! Security came by and said it would be a while before he power was back on and just to hang tight.

Here is the front of the store with the light from the mall helping to shine into our store. We thought about looting but if the other stores weren't going to do it then we would look dumb!!
As Katie tries to wash out the color I would snap photos with my camera for light. I guess I should have warned them that I was doing that.....I think Katie went blind after this photo! I offered to do this so Courtney could get her cut but she wasn't too thrilled with the idea!
After about an hour all the power came back on and everything was back to normal. Katie cut Courtney's hair (now she looks like Boo from Monster's Inc.....it's cute) and I had to actually work and put away the stock order! At least it was something fun and exciting that happened at work.......for once!!!


More to come

That is scary! This is like the second scary movie plot you've been a part of; first the empty movie theater and now a dark scary mall!!! You better watch out...

Did Katie cut her hair off or is it just pulled to one side?

Does this mean Courtney's bangs were an accident? Katie cut them in the dark? Well they are a SUPER CUTE accident! :)

Gosh, I have never thought about the fact that my life is literally a scary movie. I have also noticed that Courtney is ALWAYS with me when these random things are happening!! It's Courtney in the Study with the candlestick!!!

BTW.....for anyone concerned her hair was cute when the lights were on so no harm was done to her hair. She wanted her bangs to look like Boo!! So cute!

Thanks for the concern about my hair. I do love the bangs they just take some time to get use to. I guess this means my nickname iks Boo. Where's Kitty

Also maybe its Lindsay and her love for scarey movies that make these situations happen. All I got to say if I hear a weird noise I am running the other way
