Oh wow

It's going to be a happy day because I started it off with a diet sunkist. It's scientifically proven, it will now be a great sunshiney day. Of course I thought the same thing last week when I started the day out with Arizona iced tea...WRONG! The day quickly went to hell in a handbasket. So boo hiss (that makes sense if you're a temptation, which makes sense if you work at TJG) to Arizona and diet sunkist is off the hizzie (also, gotta be a temptation).

I didn't commit any crimes (or sins mom) at graduation. I managed to make it through the entire thing without even thinking about strangling someone, except myself maybe, out of boredom. Graduations are punishments, not celebrations. Don't ever let anyone tell you any different. If they try, they're lying, and probably the president of the college. Our president stood there and said 'we don't have a speaker because no one remembers them and this is your night blah blah blah' and then goes on to blab for another ten minutes about stuff no one is going to remember...see, I only remember the first fifteen words or so up until the blah blah blah part, I don't think he actually said that. Could have though, I was worlds away.

I caught your attention with my title didn't I...there's nothing oh-ish or wow-ish about this blog though, it was a dirty trick.

Now it's May 16th...and I can even tell you within the same blog if the sunkist worked...it did! I had a happy day. I started this morning off with a helping of fruitloops and then cranky old deaf man. Complete jerk, I nearly had to reach through the phone and slap him. He did make me mad enough for me to slam my fist down onto my desk, just as Pam was walking by. Sorry Pam for my burst of rage. As I told Lori, he was "deaf and an ass." We had lunch at the Tavern though and I had a veggie burger...yummy! The funny thing was I asked for a salad as my side and unbeknownst (it's spelled right! leave me alone) to me the salad had ham and bacon in it. I ate it, and then my veggie burger. I also asked for no tomato on the burger, but requested ketchup. I like to be a contradiction. You would have thought after I ordered the veggie burger that the waitress would clue me in on the condition of the salad, she could have caused a huge stink.

AFI is back in the states, which is cool! Poor Davey apparently managed to sprain his ankle and chip his tooth over in Europe. Impressive is what that is. I hope he has a better story to explain his chipped tooth than I have for my tooth, because mine just makes me look like a dope. If he chipped it on a glass, or the microphone (which is my guess haha) then his story ranks right there with mine. I'll just say that I didn't chip mine on a mic.

Another survey funny...I had this guy (old cranky man...noticing a theme to my day?) who started off telling me to hurry. It's always the ones who tell you to hurry who give you the longest drawn out answers, and this guy did not disappoint. But what was unique about him...he'd launch into a long explanation/answer and at the end of it he'd go "would you get on with it." This are the people who make me want to (excuse me) yell "what the hell?!?!?!" and then slap them.

Oh look, the farmer' s market is open downtown. Well you can't look, just take my word for it. Too bad I'm stuck in this office, at this desk, in front of this computer, just watching the non-working world go by. Pam and Lynsey wanted to go to CVS to get candy. So when we're at the counter the woman is like "oh, are you all on break? how are things going where you work? is it a slow day?" I wanted to tell her we were working, we were undercover shoppers and we were getting ready to steal a pocketbag full of $8 pens. Lynsey wanted to tell her we worked for Willy Wonka and were taking all the other candy away to give Willy a CVS monopoly. Pam voted for something along the lines of buying their candy to re-sell in our own candy store. Yeah, we were bored and the CVS lady was on the verge of creepy, definitely beyond the realm of nosey.

And I shall leave you with a funny answering machine message: "I'm probably not answering the phone because I'm asleep, or I left it somewhere and I don't know where. I don't really know why I'm not talking to you, but if you leave a message I might call you back." WEIRDO (for LFER)
