Parachute men, Hooters and long distance phone calls
This cold hit me fast and the cat demanding to sleep on my head at night isn't helping matters. I woke up at 1:30am needing cold medicine. Noting the time I decided on a half dosage. Come 7am I was in my usual grumpy, don't talk to me now state only...deeper into the mood.
The only thing that seemed to amuse me was my lame rhyme to my long distance phone buddy and even then I couldn't giggle at myself without starting to cough. Who the heck gets sick in May?
So, I blame the rest of my day on the lack of daytime cold medicine combined with nighttime cold medicine withdrawal. That, and it was jeans day at work..bring on the slacking.
1. I suggested Hooters for lunch. I spent a lot of time harping on the high school boyfriend about even thinking about going to Hooters, and now...I'm a grown heterosexual woman who occasionally dreams of their hot sauce while trying to ignore their attire.
2. I opened the toy drawer at the office. I keep it for when my colleagues show off their children. I think of it as a consolation prize. If they're lucky they'll miss the glazed over look and think the office isn't a bad place after all. Brainwash them early.
3. Watching three coworkers run up and down my aisle trying to loft a plastic parachute man is just about as fun as it sounds.
4. I went to the Oak Brook mall after work to exchange my cell phone. I forgot how beautiful the outdoor mall is during the spring. I stopped to smell a purple tulip (they don't smell by the way) when a kid came up from behind me and yelled bang..bang. Two foam disks shot me on my backside. I instinctively yelled out, ye haw. Thinking this was hilarious his younger brother rammed his toy helicopter blades into my shin.
5. It's Wednesday and I'm dreaming of Sunday night. Sunday, Sunday, Sunday!
