For those of you that have been playing along at home, you know that where I work, the Friday before a holiday is DEAD. D.E.A.D. As a matter of fact...it's 9:12 a.m. and I am bored. The phone hasn't rung....no e-mails to answer...Nothing. So, I have decided to use this time to give you a play by play into the mind numbing saga that is my day at work. I'll try to update this post frequently today.
My first thought this morning....why didn't we go up north? (I know. I'm a bit indecisive like that.)
9:47 a.m. Wow....DRAGGING ON. I have bought a Starbucks from the cafe downstairs. "cafe". No, not really. And surprisingly, it does not taste like a Starbucks. "surprisingly". No, not really. I have decided that the next time the smokers go outside. I'm going with them. Fresh air and all. Besides...it is beautiful outside. Maybe I can kill 15 minutes that way.
10:41 a.m. Thank god Jennifer and I can e-mail back and forth about Lost. Or I would be asleep here. Does anyone else watch Lost. What an amazing finale. It was much better than Cats, I'm going to see it again and again. (anyone know that little blurb from the mid 80's? I'll give you a hint. It's from a comedy show...still on the air actually, but no where near as good as it used to be). As much as I love Lost. Jen is a real fanatic. I think I understand an episode and then I talk to her and realize my foolish ways. She is either a die hard fan, or way too into those Lost Blogs... (of course now that I have spent half of my morning reading these blogs I feel even dumber. Can't a girl just enjoy a TV show? With all the analyzing going on, it's more like a homework assignment...of course now I am going to watch the finale again...without my normal wine consumption...that will probably help me a bit too)
Hey guys- Old Navy is having a great sale this weekend! Surf, surf, surf....the Internet is my friend today.
11:07 a.m. LUNCH PLANS! Finally, something to do. Will report back on disgusting bar food I am most likely to consume later on.
1:38 p.m. Back from lunch (and no, I wasn't gone this entire time....I am not THAT much of a slacker). However, this I did find interesting. I was gone from 11:15-12:40 p.m. I know the exact amount of time because my boss was nice enough to point it out to me when I came back. Now, let's see. I rarely go out to lunch first of all (many times I eat at my desk). Secondly, I am a salaried employee, which so far seems to only become apparent when they need me to travel and work after hours. Thirdly, the group that I joined for lunch are all HOURLY employees in our same department (different manager, quite obviously). WTF people. Ah well. Over it. It made my day interesting for about 10 minutes anyhow.
Disgusting bar food was a tavern burger. Damn, that was good. Disgusting bar food always is.
1:50 p.m. Only 40 minutes left to go. Of course, the sunny skies have turned cloudy and the rain has started...just like disgusting delicious bar food. Very predictable.
Have a great holiday weekend everyone!
