I keep trying to go to lunch alone, but my cubemate sees me leaving and gets up to go with me,
ugh. Tell her that you're going to run an errand, then come back with lunch. after a few times, she'll get the hint.
Well, then, this is a day I'll feel good to be me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Thanks, Dana.
And my boss wasn't in his office, so all that remains is a mega-huge headache.
But I do have fancy cookies in that desk drawer...

Even though I remain the only person ever pulled over in Steilacoom for going too slow. (It was once notorious for its speed traps.)
I've driven through Steilacoom! (Even though I still pronounce it STEEL-a-coom.) My sister warned me about the speed traps. Pretty town.

I got pulled over once for driving too slow. Then they accused me of desecrating graves.

Illinois also has treats like Cairo (KAY-ro) and DeZ Plainz to trip up the unwary. Or edumacated.
Also, AY-thens (Athens) and San JOES (San Jose).
Our favorite was always the tourists trying to pronounce "Nenana" and "Tanana". Oh, and "Tlingit".
Oh, that's exciting, Gud! Yay preschool! I loved preschool.

I didn't either, but I was so distressed by my "failure" that the nuns let me read instead. So I got my own special reading time! It was awesome.

I was just talking with a friend about my disappointment at never being chosen as "nap fairy" because I couldn't stay asleep.
