Inside That Icy Exterior Is A Firey She-Beast
Today at Big Red, one of our part-time people showed up to get some materials. She and I have sort of a, shall we say, complicated relationship. Most of the time, I think she looks at me like a waste of space and so I tend to over-compensate by smiling and agreeing a lot. It's been better lately enough so that she actually asked me how I was today.
And then I hear my boss say "What are you going to a wedding today?" and she comes back with "Excuse me? What do you mean by that?" She was wearing a pretty dress that could go dressy or casual and I was walking by I said to her "I think it's his way of saying you look nice today."
That seemed to appease her and things were good until he comes out of his office and for some unknown reason decided it was a good thing to say "Ok fine, I hate your dress."
Oh. My. God. I swear daggers flew out of my eyes and hit him square in the forehead. All I could think was "Jesus be quiet! I'm pretty sure it breathes fire when it's angry!"

Random Thoughts Cuz That's All I Got
- This morning when Jon dropped me off at work, I went to the back seat to give hugs and kisses to Lauren. She took my hand, put it over her nose and said "What does it snell like mummy?" So, I smelled my hand and it didn't smell like anything to me so I said "I don't know babe. I don't smell anything" and she says "I know mummy! You snell like french fries!" Hahaha... Not sure where she got that since the last time we had fries was last week!
- We took Lauren to the Frex on Sunday and she had a blast. Crap! I just remembered I promised her a candy apple on the way out. Meh... We drove past it on Monday and she said "Are we going to the Frex?!?!?" And I said "Not today baby. Maybe we'll stop in later this week" to which she replied "I wish I was there right now..."
- I've been watching a lot of YouTube lately and somehow stumbled across FronkN'Dego Films. These two guys are so effing funny that I can barely contain myself. I'm laughing so hard that I'm snorting and crying and eventually can't breathe. Now, most of the time, I watch these videos at work since I'm super busy and I'm trying to be quiet so they don't catch me slacking off. Well, this is really hard to do and the laughs end up coming out sounding like high pitched squeaks. I'm sure my co-workers think I'm having seizures or I've morphed into a pig or something. My favorites are Webcam: The Plate, Gay Zombie and Star Trek Doors.
- I found a larder beetle crawling on my foot this morning at work. Ewww. And I knew the little bastard had hitched a ride from home with me because I had never seen one at work before. But I've many a time found them eating the insides of Reeses Pieces under my couch and chomping on cat food Trinity tossed behind her food bowl. I found it around 10am and I really, really don't want to know where it was before that. Shudder..... So itchy now.
