Strange Occurrences

Ok, I haven’t blogged for a while… because there’s been a lot of stuff happening! We recently fired some people & hired some others… one of them happens to be a super cute boy. He is so cute that all the girls at the office have gone into some type of frenzy. I couldn’t care less – I’ve got my eyes set on someone else (which I will elaborate on in full detail on some other time). :p

Besides the cute boy being at the office, sharing the better half of our days – something strange happened between me & Goldilocks. The difference between Goldilocks and Blondie is that Goldilocks is much too involved in trying to micromanage to notice me. On the other hand, what I lack with Goldilocks, Blondie makes up. Since Blondie & I share a mutual understanding for creativity, I get along smoothly with Blondie. Not to say that I don’t get along with Goldilocks either; I have no choice! Well, anyway, one day, out of the blue, Goldilocks asked if I wanted to go to lunch with her.

“Right now?” I responded.

“Yes. It’s 12, isn’t it?” She responded, looking at me like I was incompetent.

“Ok. Just give me a second to grab my things.” I squeaked out. Then I ran over to my desk to double-check our calendars, in case I missed that tiny bit of detail that morning when I went over them. You see, Goldilocks never does anything that’s not on her calendar. So, this was out of the ordinary for her. For me, dreadful, because I couldn’t figure out why the hell she would want to have lunch with me. She doesn’t even eat lunch herself!

As it turns out, even on lunch, I am on duty. Especially with her. I ended up lugging two big boxes from her car to the UPS store for delivery. We did have lunch, but I just felt weird altogether that I didn’t even care what I was eating. After we spent a good hour and a half, blabbing about work and nothing in particular, she asked, “Do I have a meeting a 1:30?”

Fortunately for me, I memorize her calendar for instances like these! I said “yes.” And I have to say, I think we were both really relieved to be back in the office, doing what we do best.

On This Valentine’s Day

My button won’t do its job and keep my boobs in – it keeps poppin’! I knew I should’ve done a trial run before wearing it to work! As long as I don’t move around a lot, I’ll be ok. Although, that’s next to impossible. Goldie Locks is leaving for Vegas tomorrow on vacation and will probably make last minute requests, as she usually does, that will require me to run around the office.

Did I mention that when Blondie returned from her New York trip, she bought me the soundtrack for Wicked?! How awesome. I would’ve liked to tag along in New York better than a measly soundtrack, but whatever, I’ll take what I can get.

During a recent outing with some of the single female co-workers, we came upon the topic of a certain individual at the office whom I will call Mr. T. Magdelene loves all the boys at the office and will do most anything to strike up conversation with them. She’s single and doesn’t like it one bit. She’s got her eyes on Mr. T who is 10 years younger than she is, but age ain’t nothin but a numba. When she revealed that he was a virgin, we all gasped in horror. He was cute, young and drove a racy BMW – how could he be a virgin?! It turns out that he is one of those guys who is saving himself for his one true love. Uh, hello, welcome to the 21st century! Anyway, the point of this story is that I do believe he is crushing on me. Just the other day, he asked me if I would be interested in checking out some MP3 players with him at Best Buy. He must’ve remembered that one time I asked him to help me synch up my iPod some time ago. I kindly declined because I don’t do that to my girlfriends. Yesterday, he asked me for a stamp, a band-aid and some dental floss. What am I – a convenient store?! Of course not, because I didn’t have any of that. Why would I?! I don’t have anyone to send mail to, my heart never gets broken and I only drink water for food! Before all of this, he’s never spoken to me. It’s really odd, isn’t it?

And very strangely, something is wrong with my libido. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not a sex nymph. I just don’t feel up to it these past couple of weeks. I sent Nihongo home last night because he was getting frustrated that I wasn’t in the mood, and I was getting pissed off that he kept pushing me!

I suppose tonight I’ll just pick up some Thai food & enjoy it in the company of Phil. He always makes me happy.

Another Day At The Office

Today was quite the eventful day. Even with Blondie being in New York for her conference, she still managed to make my life difficult at the office. To top it off, I decided to break my new pumps in, knowing very well that wearing it to work should’ve been the last place I would want to do something like that! I ended up running up and down six flights of stairs in search of Goldie Locks who had gone missing after her first meeting and was already running late to her next meeting! Even though I was supposed to have been on break, I forfeited my last half hour, trying to find out where she had gone since her boss was calling me about her untimely absence.

After getting yelled at, sending regrets to people I didn’t really want to contact, trying to make sense of nothing with some foreign lady over the phone about Blondie’s indecisiveness, I drove in the direction of home in bad traffic and made a detour over to the corner Thai restaurant. A hot bowl of chicken soup and spicy pad thai should resolve my misery. For the day.
