Well today was an unfortunate day.... for people all around me. No, it wasn't due to some sort of horrible behaviour put forth by myself. you jerks. Yes, I put a "u" in there. Nobody spells things correctly anymore anyway. I digress.
1) Some one had the unpleasant experience of bowing to pay homage to the porcelain goddesss at work. I think she left the one bathroom and went to the other one. Smelled like it hurt.
2) Snoooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Very pretty on the trees outside, but apparently it caused a lot of traffic jams going east-west. Me? Still took 45 minutes to get home. Took longer to find a parking spot, but I still ended up with my sweet ass spot half a block away from the house. wooopah. (<- am to stop using that phrase soon. promise)
3) Shooting a block away from work? That shooting in Everett? Blocking Merrill Creek from Seaway Blvd to Hardeson ? That's exactly where the gate for employee parking for work is. And so people thought we were indefinitely stranded with snow and hail building up at work. I went out the front. Sucky about the shooting though. It was crazy like a scene from a movie! Blue duffel bag with a shot gun in it. Bright red car being chased by police swerving and crashing into trees in some warehouse parking lot only to end with the police winning. The lady got tazed too. Found out about it oh.... 3-4 hours after it happened? Busy working you know.
M.... so yea. I don't know what other sucky business happened (<- just remembered president's address), but people seem to be having a bad day, and I'm just observing without much affect on me. I will choose to be greatful that today wasn't a bad day for me.
In fact! Today I:
-put away a huge chunk of paper that has been haunting the office for quite some time. I have all this space on my desk now!! and other people have space on their desks too!!!! keeping one of my New Year's resolutions at least....
-donated blood and got my gallon pin!!!!! As of today I've donated a combined amount of 1 gallon in blood. I forgot to race myself. I was busy trying to remember whose crazy time I had to beat. Methinks it might be Beena.....
-already mentioned parking spot...
-my bank account isn't dangerously low (yet)
-had some time to think of Lindysu. I was surprised by a memory of her the other day, and that hurt. today did not hurt. so it's a plus.
-did you know Keith Urban has a song called "Stupid Boy?" I find it amusing. Lyrics are dumb, but if you don't really pay attention at all it could be a good song for any of you currently bitter barned women out there. The stupidity of the song still makes me chuckle.
Now I'm stretching so I will end and hope this isn't some false sense of optimism. Or if it is, may it never end.
Did any one else notice the "S" theme from the list above? I just realized. Cindy stop typing. (alliteration!!!)
