Today Is a Better Day
Well now, I feel all better today. I got up feeling good (I may be dying!) which is very odd. Normally I wake up wanting to bite the heads off bunny rabbits, but today I actually woke up smiling.
My kids got dressed and ready for school without needing to be screamed at.
It was raining when I got up, but that stopped right before we left.
I took my kids to school and my son had his ID badge!
I started home and they played the best music on the radio.
Pardon me for one moment- Doctor, doctor, give me the news, I gotta bad case of loving you!
Nice change from Tuesday especially.
I was out of Mello Yello (the thing that keeps me going) and was in dire need of a carbonation boost. All that was left was flat root beer which sucks flat or not or Sunkist orange soda. Needing my morning burst of bubbles, I opted with the Sunkist. First sip was ok, by about the 4th though, I was having flashbacks to the glucose tolerance tests I had to take when I was pregnant many moons ago. By the 6th gulp, I was turning green. I assure you, aside from the part of giving birth to a football sideways, glucose tolerance tests are the worst thing about pregnancy.
Anyway....
I had to work and the virus sharing co-worker was in a bad mood. Boofrickityhoo. Poor critter, I put her in that bad mood too- just by telling her a restaurant she wanted to eat at was not open on Tuesdays. I shit you not, she started calling the place at 8:30 to order her lunch- The Carbolicous Calorie Crusher. Fried pork chop, mashed potatoes with gravy, macaroni & cheese and 2 pieces of cornbread. When she couldn't get an answer, she asked would I call and order it for her "soon". That is when I burst her bubble. "They aren't open on Tuesdays.". Didn't say it ugly, didn't say it mean, just said it. Plain. Simple. Honest.
She was not happy. Nor did she believe me. She mentioned it to another coworker who also told her the place was only open Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Poor thing, had to settle for lunch from elsewhere- country fried steak with gravy, mashed potatoes with gravy, rice with gravy and 2 rolls.
She stomped around the office for the rest of the day. I'd like to say she was mad enough to actually do her job, but I'd be lying. She gets lazier with each passing day.
My lunch was good though- hotwings, hashbrowns (scattered, smothered, & covered), Mello Yello and cheeeeeeeeesecake. Ok, so it wasn't the perfect diet conscious lunch either, but I do eat vegetables at least once a day. The Viral Villain thinks any sidedish is a vegetable and that anything green is poison.
I've previously mentioned how she says some words. Well, yesterday a dude name Enrique was in the office and she called him back, "Inner Rick". I about crapped my pants trying not to laugh.
Something else was going on yesterday that didn't suit my fancy, but today has been so wonderful, I've now forgotten what it was...
Back to work tomorrow- wonder what I can do to piss her off again?
