2009?!?!
Is it really almost 2009? How did this year go by so quickly? I am seriously perplexed about this!
Overall, it was a good year. Some highlights: took a good number of vacations, made it past the 1-year mark at my job, and got engaged! There were some not-so-good times, I’m sure, but right now the good outweighs the bad so I call 2008 a success.
Here’s to 2009…Happy New...
Dear Female Co-Workers on 4th Floor,
How is it that you leave the following things in or around the toilet and either a) don’t know or b) don’t care enough to clean up after yourself:
Hairs (From head or other various places.)
Pee on the seat (Come on! Even if your follower doesn’t sit on the seat, it’s gross.)
“Things” in the toilet bowl (Wide range of “things”…use your...
Adios Sport & Health!
My gym membership has OFFICIALLY EXPIRED!
Thank God! Paying $50/month and never going (and I stress never) was starting to cost a lot of money.
Hypothesis: Paying for a gym ≠ Motivation to go
Boredom at work.
Sarah: So, what do you do on days like this?
me: Go to the end of the internet and back.
me: did you know that a new years resolution is sorta synonymous with "commitment"?
Michelle: NUH UH!!
me: yes huh!
Michelle: New Years Resolution = a daunting task that you force yourself to do until February when the thought of New Years is a faint memory. Commitment = a daunting task that looms over your head until you have completed it in it's entirety. MLK does NYR, MLK does not do commitment.
me: 10-4
I wanna go home!
My boss has been out sick yesterday and today. This, plus having nothing to do, makes it really hard for me to be here…considering I’m kinda sick too.
I have a total of 2.5 hours of sick time left for the year. Maybe I’ll leave early today…I mean no one wants to hear me coughing all day, right?
I hate people that have had off since Christmas!
Eric is going out tonight since he doesn’t have to work tomorrow. He said, and I quote, “it’s not really a Monday though.”
Well according to the calendar and those of us who have to work this week, it certainly is!
I will spend the rest of the night on the couch getting rid of this bug so I’m all better for New Years!
UGHHH
That’s all.
...and then i found $12
whytluda:
there is a somebody on Tumblr, and this story is dedicated to her.
miss kimboslice. i was doing laundry, my jeans, and i ended up pulling out $12 from this load of denim. you only found $5? i win. :) its a Christmas miracle!
Nice! You know you’ve made it in the blog-o-sphere when someone thinks of you while doing laundry, haha. Don’t spend it all in once place. :)
That's what she said...
Thomas (10 year old cousin): I'm in a really good position right now.
Eric (24 year old fiance): "That's what she said!"
Why the hell didn't I find wood to knock on?!?!
When I was getting my hurr did on Saturday, I told Dinh that I have successfully avoided all the bugs floating around my work. I then said, “knock on wood” but didn’t actually do it.
Look who’s sick the day before Christmas vacation.
Dammit.

Sprechen Sie Deutsch?
My last name is of German decent. Every time I go into one of the VP’s office here at work, he immediately starts speaking German to me. I’m pretty sure this happened in my initial interview and I was terrified. I mean really, way to make me feel like a moron! Since I’ve gotten to know him a little better I try to laugh it off, regardless of the fact I still feel like an...

It stresses me out to have more than 8-10 emails in my Gmail account.
Funny, because my work email has 3,585 emails right now.
True Story
I cannot go out 2 nights in a row anymore.
I feel OLD.

perfect.
Well…did it? I’m looking to expand my collection of “As Seen on TV” items.

I am finally seeing Dinh today! Dinh is a funny little Asian man who does my hair (which needs to be done really bad).
Today, Dinh is my savior.
Random un-diverse question of the day.
Do they make Band-Aids for black people or African Americans (whatever the PC term is these days)?
Too far?

Crimson Tide, Hokies to meet in College Kickoff →
Clearly, I love the Hokies…very much so. But to think that we’ll be “ranked in the top 10 to start the season,” is ludicrous. (I’ve always wanted to seriously use that word in a sentence.) We have done nothing this season to earn us a top 10 spot.
That should be a really good game blowout.

Aaron: i'd just do it at chipotle and make everyone happy
me: except me...i hate that place, no quesadillas!
Aaron: WHAT ARE YOU EVEN AMERICAN?!? ????35/3253453@@#@!!! (sigh)
me: hahaha
Aaron: this friendship may be short lived my dear
me: it appears that way, im sorry if i offended you haha
Aaron: chipotle is like a religion to me
me: quesadillas are my belief
Aaron: i respect that 100% but will never understand
Layoffs
Just announced the voluntary severance packages.
2 weeks for every year you are employed. I’ve been here 1 year, 1 month which makes me eligible for a whopping 2 weeks pay.
Are they kidding?
