Well, shoot, it turns out that my in-laws did get vaccinated, but are against getting a booster.
On the brighter side, the pie my employer sent me is supposed to arrive today.
If only I had the ability to shout "BAT" and disappear from situations I don't want to be in.
That would be one of the better superpowers. I mean, super-strength and super-speed and all sound great, but then people would always be expecting you to do things. With the bat-and-go power it would be...
Dana, thank goodness you are here, we have a situa--
"BAT"
Ok, Dana has done everything she can do, it's up to the rest of us now.
Yesterday, I got the cupcakes my employer sent.
I like this trend of people sending you treats, Gud. I wish to know your secret. Oh, wait, is it, "Be awesome"? Probably.
I almost made a response on FB - someone said on a post not to me "...I looked but couldn't find the Lutherans," and I wanted to say, "Did you check the sink?" Which is doubly funny to me, because either I never knew or have forgotten the origin of Lutherans in the sink.
Your employer is earning brownie points with me, Gud!
Yes, this was a shameless attempt to get you to say they are sending you brownies tomorrow
JenP - it's The Simpsons! You know how all quotes used to be from the bible or Shakespeare? The Simpsons are like that now
I did get an email saying they are going to send a gift box, but I don't know if there are any brownies in it.
Meanwhile my employer is sending out pleas for us to sign up for more shifts at the outlet sale because apparently we have no baggers this afternoon (I am already cashiering this afternoon, so I wouldn't be able to help even if I wanted to which really I do not)
The company my father worked for for 40 years was very paternalistic in some ways. It paid off for us because for Christmas every year we'd get goodies - a big box from a gourmet/luxury food place (which is where I acquired my taste for anchovies, smoked oysters and caviar) and a 20-pound frozen turkey. We'd keep the turkey in the freezer until the weather warmed up and then my father would get out his fancy-schmancy grill (which had a hood) so he could smoke the turkey. Used hickory chips, so the flavor was great. And it was eaten much more quickly than the usual holiday turkey would have been (by my family).
Ok, Dana has done everything she can do, it's up to the rest of us now.
Gud knows what I'm talking about. Like, if someone started telling me that I should eat keto or whatever.
"BAT!" And I'm gone.
Yum brownies. I want brownies now….
I made it to the place my friend rented for December and it’s pretty darn awesome! We have concerns about the internet speed but are hoping it can be easily addressed.
I only watched What We Do In the Shadows (the movie? Is there also a series?) at Halloween but it was funny.
How do I say on my year end review, as a goal, “be less intimidating because apparently some people find me intimidating”???
