tuesday.

nuthin’.  i gots nuthin’ to say. the Brit would say that is a miracle because i always have something to say.  i’m the type of person that blurts out random statements when there’s been too much silence.   this is a picture the Brit “listening” to me recount the day’s events at work.  notice how he’s intently reading his EXCEL book.  i’m waaaay more interesting than Excel surely (but maybe a tad less annoying).

attention!

i didn’t get nachos today – boo!  i got a soy latte instead for lunch because we couldn’t argue about coffee (though he did call me a weirdo for requesting soy). 

i’ve been avoiding working on that burlesque themed wedding invite.  she stopped by to ask me how i was getting on with it and if i was having fun working on it.  the truth is i’ve been avoiding it like the plague for the past couple of weeks and i’d rather format pie charts for reports all day than work on it – but i can’t say that.  so i smile and sorta nod my head,  trying to repress the sarcasm vomit rising to the surface.  thankfully that was enough of an answer because she moved on to talk someone else about ordering some silver marker pens for the invites (cringe).

that’s me done.  i told you i had nuthin.’  i’ll try to shake things up tomorrow. 

being nit picky.

how to entertain yourself at work:  be annoying
example 1
coworker: i’m going to get lunch. want something?
me: umm,  depends.  where are you going?
coworker:  place down the street. south of the border food.
me: south of the border, eh?  so…tasmanian food?
coworker: no stupid. mexican.
(me thinking to myself:  did he just call me stupid??  fine, i’ll just be annoying now)
me: that’s not south of the border.
coworker: yes it is.
me: i think you can only say “south of the border” when you’re actually in a place where mexico is south of the border
coworker: but you knew what i meant, didn’t you?
me: because i come from a place where “south of the border” means mexico (or ohio)
coworker:  forget it. you don’t get anything
me:  can you get me some nachos?


is it friday yet?
