So alot of my friends and or work associates will not be in tommorow or Friday. We are saying goodbyes now...

More then a few time already, Id get ready to end a conversation , with "Have a great holiday and relaxing weekend" only to get a response of "Thanks. Bye" !!!

why not a "you have one as well!" ?

how selfish!

what kind of response is 'Thanks', without a follow up for me to have one as well...

to spite them all, Im gonna have a shitty one...and let them know should they ask next week, which Im sure they wont!

LOL

Dov, I hope you have a lovely holiday. May your Christmas be filled with diet drinks and low sugar foods.

aww shucks..

Thanks Tania

u2.. see ya in January?

Ooooh, that's right!! I had forgotten that we get to FINALLY meet next month. Gosh, it's come so quickly. Remind me, hon...which dates will you be here?

My office is close to being overly nice. I like it.

In Anaheim, Fri Jan 21st thru Sat afternoon...

then staying at the Metropolitan Hotel in Hollywood thru Wedsnday...

Monday night Im going to Metal Shop...

Friday night, this band Sadaharu is playing somewhere in LA , who i realy wanna see.

Amoeba, Fngerprints, Arons...

we'll speak before then, and set something up...

Yay! I'm hoping my schedule won't be as busy as it has been of late.

A co-worker of mine and I were leaving at approximately the same time a couple of years ago on 12/29. We get on the elevator.

Friend: "So, you coming in tomorrow?"
Me: "No, you?"
Friend: "No."
(comfortable pause)
Friend: "You know, I got lucky today."
Me: "How's that?"
Friend: "I managed to leave before anyone could say...you know, that cliche."
Me: "What cliche?"
Friend: "You know, office cliche's -- I hate them. 'Hot enough for you?' 'Working hard or hardly workin'?' Well, I don't want to say it, but there's one that people like to say at the end of the year. You know, usually they say, 'see you tomorrow' or 'see you next week', but there's one time of year that they can say something else, and they do, like it's the funniest thing in the world. You know, it may have been funny once, like in the year 1060...B.C.!"
(elevator stops on his floor, he gets out)
Me: "Hey, Mike..."
(he stops, turns around)
Me: "See you next..."
(his expression changes to one of total disbelief and betrayal)
Me: "...Tuesday, I won't be in on Monday, neither."
(he smiles, I smile, doors shut)

So, I guess my point is, it could be worse -- it could be next week.

My pet peeve last night: I'm standing in an aisle looking at something and someone else walks right in front of me and starts looking at the same thing. No "excuse me" or "pardon me"...it's as if I am fuckin' invisible. If they don't quickly make their selection and move, I'll mumble, "Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know you were in my way." and move right next to them, making them uncomfortable cuz I've now invaded their space.

Sneeze on the the back of their neck.

Dusty, that was a good one.

Pet Peeve Of The Day:

Last night, I packed everything up to go home today and drove into work this morning (which is a mere 4 miles, but a tough 4 miles) and paid $20 parking in hopes of saving an hour for my trip home by leaving from work. The problem is I left my dress shirt for midnight mass at my apartment. So now I have to decide whether to buy a new dress shirt ($50) downtown or save that money and drive back up to my apartment and get it...fully fucking up my plan to save an hour of driving time and wasting the $20 in parking because I could've taken the train. The other thing is that time is important because I'm suppose to meet a bunch of friends out tonight back in my home town. It's going to bother me all day. What should I do?

You're only packing A dress shirt? You have NO sufficient replacement?
I save myself from this scenario by rocking white and blue button ups most of the time. (monogrammed sleeves, too, piomp)

Well I was going to grab 2 or 3 dress shirts from my apartment for back up, but I really only need one and only for about an hour. So I figure I could get by with one shirt. It's too friggin' cold to wear dress shirts for any longer than an hour right now.

I guess y'all gotta rock sweaters and shit, huh?

Standard GAR uniform = starched shirt, blazer, jeans, boots (ankle, cowboy, Redwings)

Can't you borrow one from your dad? I'm assuming that you're gonna wear a jacket over your shirt.

And why spend 50 bucks on a shirt that you're only gonna wear temporarily. Buy some cheap ass thing from Ross, Marshall's or TJ Maxx.

Well, it'll probably become part of my business casual summer workday rotation. There is a nordstrom rack close by that has some good shit. I'm not going to wear a jacket and my dad while being the same height is about 50-60 lbs > me.




Some one shoot me.
