Hey, guys. Boy, has this been a lame week! Well, it started off okay, but after Wednesday, things just started to be dull. And I was so psyched for swing dancing last night, and I could barely make it to eleven. I've also discovered a new rule for single girls: do not trust men in bad hats! Silly hats, unusual hats, innocuous hats, those are fine. But if you find the hat questionable, you can bet the wearer is not far from that category. Last night I got sucked into dancing three songs with Dean, who was wearing jean shorts (btw it was about 42 last night, and who swings in jean shorts?!), and a very bad green porkpie hat. But being the nice and naive person that I am, I put up with the three dances, where I got to hear a lot about trumpet playing, refinishing the basement, and that I am flexible. Eeek and a half. He did show me how to do a drop, which was fun, but I think I'd rather have Eric or Ben to do that with. After dancing with bad hat Dean, I learned from the others that he's actually the creepy thirty-ish guy who likes to hit on high school girls. I am joining a Buddhist monastery at my first opportunity. But yes, bad hats are a sign, everyone. Keep your eyes open on the streets out there.
On the other hand, I did get to hang with my friends who are awesome at swing dancing. Met the third Ben of the Three Wise Bens, and he's quite amusing. He also thought it was odd that I was directed to pick up guys at swing dancing, because one does not go there to pick up guys. I'm getting kind of annoyed with this "go out more to meet guys" lecture, right up there with "you're not doing enough applications" lecture. I'm doing what I can, damn it. It hasn't worked out much in this first part of my life, I can't see why it'll start working now. And I rather enjoy the new theme song I've discovered. My life is very Green Day, it seems.
Work is still the suck. My idiot manager is still an exceptional idiot. How hard is it to put empty releases on the car when they come out empty?!?!? I'm not going to be around forever to clean up everyone's crap! He gets paid way more than I do, and I still do better work. My workhusband were both pretty cranky this week because of work. I ran into him when I was going home and he was finishing his run, and we both agreed that the company is handing us a lot of bullshit lately, wanting the highest quality of service from the ten people who are doing what it takes forty people to do for high quality service.
Whatever.
I was just reading the cast list for New Moon, and it has Michael Sheen and Graham Greene in it! Of course, because it has Native Americans in it, they have to call Graham Green. But his best role is still Edgar K.B. Montrose. But as I was reading the list, I thought, "Graham Green...Michael Sheen...Charlie Sheen...Ben Vereen...shrink to the size of a lima bean!!!" And I felt happy again.
