I've just been demoted from A/P Clerk to Intern. I am currently looking through a 60-page report for some combination of the words "paint" and "booth." So far I've only found the word "boring." I circled it.

Via yesterday. I often forget to hit the "post" button ( Read more... )

Don just got a Blackberry-type thing. A Cingular Somethingerother. I loooooove playing new gadgets and I was oh so jealous when our tech guy put it on his desk. I almost asked him if I could just check it out for a couple minutes.

In related news, I've been browsing around for a cheap camcorder. Looks like I could get one for as cheap as $85, but ( Read more... )

Miles is picking me up from work today! I'm giving him a haircut and doing some general hanging out. If I still have this strange craving for cheese curds when he gets here, I might make him take me to the grocery store. I'll probably make him take me somewhere with food at any rate because I'll be hungry and hangout times are always good snack ( Read more... )

Godiva chocolates are the shit. I love truffles so much. Don has a whole box on his desk which are up for grabs and I'm trying to refrain from grabbing too many. Really though, if you're gonna eat something bad for you, you might as well eat something really freakin' delicious ( Read more... )

I've been doing good lately. No depression to speak of, being quite productive. Even though I haven't had an eight hour night of sleep in over a week, I'm a little stressed out, and I'm fighting off some sort of sickness, I'm still doing well and I know why. I've kept myself busy (a little too busy) making things for people. Crafting and baking ( ( Read more... )

More and more I've been noticing the midwestern accent. It's especially noticeable in my suburbanite coworkers, but the more subtle accents of the city people, the ones I've lived near all my life are what's interesting, even more so than when I find myself using the drawn out "ey" sound (turning "great" into "greyt") or turning O's into ooo's and ( Read more... )

Today there was cookie decorating in the break room. I made an adorable Christmas tree in under 30 seconds, I wish I had my camera with me.

This morning Nick sent me a Belle & Sebastian song called "Funny Little Frog." Did I mention how much I love him?

P.S. The cookie looks much better than it tastes.

P.P.S. It's one month until Nick visits!

How did Garrison Keeler gets a radio show? And how did it become so popular? Am I think only one who thinks his voice is infuriating (probably, I have issues with various radio voices) and his stories are incredibly unfunny ( Read more... )

Today I felt like Ryan the Temp because I had to update all the emergency contact information. It didn't lead to humorous shenanigans, but I did hate my job a little more. Maybe if I start thinking of my office as more like The Office, it will amuse me and I'll enjoy it a tiny bit more.
