Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh no!

I went to Subway on my way in, because I thought it would be quick. Except there was a guy in line ahead of me ordering six sandwiches, all toasted!! @@

I bet he did!!

I'm just saying -- it's a crowded place at the best of times. Why not get there before noon if your order is going to take 20 minutes no matter what?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I already know I have a teleconference in the morning and mandatory sexual harassment training in the afternoon.

On your birthday??? NO FAIR!!

SRSLY! On the up side, the teleconference just got cancelled!

Cool! No all you have to due is go learn how to sexually harass people since it sounds like it's going to be mandatory.

Happy birthday, Perkins!!

I just had a pretty cool phone call from a co-worker. Her husband is a lawyer at a small firm, and they're looking for someone to work the front office on Sunday afternoons for a few hours to greet clients, give them a questionaire, make them comfortable, all the usual stuff, and she thought of me! I'm calling him this afternoon and seeing what they're looking for and how much they're looking to pay.

This just makes me really happy because (a) she apparently doesn't view my weight as a customer service issue, something I wish more people would do, and (b) she immediately thought of me when he was looking for someone personable who could make people at ease.

Happy birthday, Perkins!

And, aww, Kathy! That's great. You are someone personable who makes people at ease! You'd be great at that job.
