What happened?

Somewhere along the way I grew up. I used to just show up for Thanksgiving dinner, eat my fill, and wait for the parents to stop gabbing so we could get home and take naps. Now, i'm baking pies and packing cars and driving 5 hours to get a homecooked meal. I'm like something out of a bad Martha Stewart magazine. Not that there's such a thing as a good Martha Stewart magazine.

Anyway, Happy Turkey Day. Don't forget to be thankful.

So i learned that...

• Even hot dogs taste better when someone else has made them.
• Politeness is difficult when you’re annoyed.
• It’s nearly impossible to concentrate on poker at 2 in the morning. Unless you’re winning.
• Tacos at midnight are never a good idea.
• Ditto on feta cheese pizza.
• Hot tubs are a necessity.
• Cell phones are evil. They allow people to find you. No matter how hard you’re trying to hide.
• Jasmine tea is much like drinking a boiled down candle. Not that I have ever sipped a liquid candle, but I’m imagining they’re quiet similar.
• If it’s ever a call between a gust of wind fueling a beach chair and your shins, the chair always wins.
• Friends are sometimes you’re most valuable asset.
• Florida really has the best orange juice.
• You always need a vacation to recover from a vacation. It’s a vicious cycle.

Now everyone...

don't go missing me all at once.

Off on a much needed vacation! Be back on the 22nd. Unless of course i decide to become a nudist and live forever in all my glory on St. Martin.

Oh so soon. It is. It's here. Winter. I wasn't quiet done with fall yet, but it seems mother nature has a sense of vengeance. I never liked her anyway.

cup o' tea

soothes the soul and warms the heart. But i wonder if it can complete an entire website in a day and a half. No? Crap.

all news, all day, every day

Here's a little update on my life. since I have no interesting stories to tell.

• This weekend we'll be opening a joint checking account. Should be fun trying to secretly spend my paychecks.

• I am currently registering for school, full time, next semester.

• I've been asked by my web design teacher to be her teaching assistant next semester, which is great because it means a 3 credit class with no homework. what could be better? Of course, it also means i'll have to pretend like I know what i'm doing.

• The two people I despise most at work are secretly plotting to make my life miserable here. Little do they know, i don't plan on staying here much longer and thus really have nothing to lose. In other words, they picked the wrong person to mess with.

• I have a work party this evening that i have no interest in attending other than for the free food and drink. Which i guess is reason enough.

• Thursday we leave for Orlando and a 7-day cruise.

• I really need to get to the dentist sometime soon to get my teeth cleaned from all this leftover Halloween candy i've been eating.

So i voted.

Not sure why. I mean, sure, i wanted to make a difference but I live in New York. I wish Lori were here, then we could have a party and we could go back and forth screaming out numbers and fist fighting. Okay, maybe not fist fighting, but still, it would be great fun. And then when Bush wins i could rub it in her face, or just rub her face in the popcorn. Of course, if Kerry wins, i'll never hear the end of this post and i'll rub my own face in the popcorn.

so on friday...

i forget my keys on the chair in my office. Not a big deal, but it's a 5 minute walk from the office to the parking lot. So i turn around, mumble some potty words under my breath and head for the office.

When I finally get there, I walk in on my coworker snooping through my things. The past week I noticed some things rearranged when I came back from lunch on a couple of occasions, but I just chalked it up to my insanity.

Well, now i have proof. And then I find out that the woman who's infatuated with said coworker and willing to do anything for him including his work, is always checking my incoming phone calls...

And who do I have to tell? No one. Because my coworker can do whatever he pleases and nothing is ever said about it.

I feel sorry for these people. They live sad little lives in their sad little heads. I just wish they would keep their sad little persons from screwing with me.
