I need a zipper

…for my smart ass mouth. * A coworker walked by saying something something…either “I could eat a horse” or “I just peed like a horse”. Me: Wait. Did you just say a horse or a whore? Him: *laugh* Both. Me: So…you’re a whore horse? Erin: He could be a horse whore. Me: A horse whore? Erin: [Knowingly] …yeah… Me: But being a horse whore, isn’t that kind of… Erin: I’m not going there… Me: …donkey show-ish? Erin: …and you just have to go there, don’t you? When I told this to Brandon later last night. Me: You know, nobody else...

Happy Busy

Seriously. Friday was a combination of hard work and fun. Nhien and I managed not to hurt ourselves while moving all sorts of boxes of our printed matter around the office and worked up a pretty good appetite. We grabbed Celeste and Pat and headed to Sushi Go 55 and the rest is over there. We came back just in time for me to throw the office birthday party. With yummy stuff from Delilah Bakery, everyone had a happy afternoon, all hopped up on sugar! I mean, all 6′ 5″ of Canadian Greg scooted over to us on this thing...

Going where?

Celeste, Nhien and I ran into The New Guy in the parking lot yesterday. He asked where we were heading off to. Celeste said, “You want to come with us? We’re going to pho.” [Pronounced: fuh] TNG just looked at me with an expression I now know as the “I’m not going to go there” look. And of course, I just had to go there on his behalf and for everyone’s entertainment. “The noodles, TNG. We’re going to get Vietnamese noodles,” I told him. Celeste and Nhien caught on and started laughing. “I thought you were going to get hot...

Break on through

I know I wasn’t suppose to touch anything in and around my nose.  But Brandon had a look, and based upon his report, I decided to investigate. Alas!  The Alien In My Nose “hatched”! I’m just going to leave it at that. My nose is still red and painful.  But oddly enough, the pressure has lifted and the pain is gone from my cheekbone and is massively reduced on bridge of my nose. I am on the 4th hour since I last took some Ibuprofen, yet I’m feeling no serious discomfort. Hot compress, Ibuprofen, antibiotics and time heal a LOT...

Dinner Guests

Athena popped in for a bite. She spent a good 15 minutes after that getting some love from me and Brandon and exploring our place. Keep in mind, this is NOT really our cat. Can you imagine what this blog would turn into when we have our own kittens? LOL. And for the host… Nutella + Strawberry = Awesome. Wish I could add red wine to these fantastic flavors, but I didn’t think my other dinner guest would agree. That other guest is the antibiotics…which I was instructed to take with food. Yes, my darlings. I am back on yet...

Dear Ass. You’ve been Kicked.

Good lord. How could a cold kicked my ass for THREE days! I did go to work this morning, having felt peachy when I left the house. But then there was the waves of fever that never quite broke. There was higher and lower fever. No break. I just sat there, staring at my monitor, not registering anything. I believe I got some stuff done and sent some emails. That much I remember. My head hurt, then went numb. Like my brain was floating inside an oven I called my skull. By the time I felt my face flushing, I...
