it snowed today, you guys. f this s.
Nothing much to report;
I talked a lot with Martha today, she's the other design nerd in the office so I sent her a link to the Missing Missy post, which, if you've never seen, you need to check out immediately. Later, I ran into her in the bathroom so she asked if I wanted to see the new website she was doing so I was like, duh, yeah. And then we talked about how annoying it is when people can't do things, or when it takes them longer to explain to us how to do something than it would for them to just do it themselves. That is my biggest pet peeve when it comes to work. My favorite is when, it hasn't happened here because I don't answer the phones, but at my old job, somebody would call and ask me a bunch of broker questions I was incapable of answering. So I'd put them on hold and ask somebody for help and they'd be like, "Ask them for their account number", so I would, and then I'd put them on hold again to give it to them, and they'd give me another question to ask them. And I would continue to relay back and forth. JESUS CHRIST JUST TAKE THE DAMN CALL. She told me about how she worked for this insanely smart woman, she had like a PhD in Chemical Medicine or some shit but she couldn't work the copier. I smiled because it reminded me of the one time that I had to fix a paper jam for Donaho and I felt like such a rockstar for being of service to such a genius. I miss him so much. I randomly feel like dropping by his office all the time because it's so close to work but I don't want to be a creep. I want to make a documentary about him, I think, I have such an affinity for great teachers. And he is so interesting, besides.
I went to Applebees on my lunch, they have this all-you-can-eat soup/salad combo midday that I have just discovered. It's no wonder - normally I was asleep during the entire block of time that it runs. But god I got the oriental chicken salad (iwant_sprinkles ♥!) and potato cheese soup and it was so good I had her bring me out an entire second round. And I finished it like a boss. YES I have my period, I eat a ton, okay. Not to be cliché, but I also had 5 brownies tonight. Shut up, they're not even massive.
My mother continues to be insensitive about my development into independent adulthood.
My father is also useless in this department.
What else is new.
Does anyone have tips for making your hair grow faster? My hair like, does not grow, and when it does, I have to get it cut because the ends get all fried and straw-like. I have, however, been making a conscious effort to use as little heat as possible - I let it air-dry whenever possible, only curl it when absolutely necessary, and only use a flat-iron on v special occasions, although I'm trying to phase it out entirely because it's like murder. I've also been conditioning it like mad, all the time. I've noticed a difference, but I still had to get it trimmed today and I'm pretty butthurt about it.
I spent the night going through all of the photos I've taken at family events this past year, in an effort to find the stupidest/most heinous shots of everyone. I photoshopped them meme-style and I'm going to print them and put them in plastic eggs for my 1st annual Embarrassing Easter Egg Hunt. They also have points assigned to them. Some have negative points - like I put a random photo of Kiel in there with this stupid fucking knit hat on his head and it's going to be negative points because nobody will know who the fuck he is. Also my aunt has this clock that everybody fucking hates because the hands are confusing and we never know what time it is. That is also negative time-warp points. I'm thinking of making this a speed race so there's an added element of fighting/injury. I think after we all open the eggs, we're going to glue them to a posterboard so we can have a collage of lols for every year that we can continue to bring out each Easter. This is the best idea I've had in recent memory.
YEAH, SO I'M EXCITED FOR EASTER EVEN THOUGH I DON'T BELIEVE IN THE REASONS FOR IT.
kthxbye. UGH I AM TIRED OF GOING TO BED EARLY AND WAKING UP EARLY, IT JUST DOES NOT JIVE WITH MY BOD OR ARTISTIC MIND.
