I'm b-a-a-ck (a second time)
Okay, so I have already written this up one time this morning....and somehow it got locked up and never posted. So here is one more try.
I'm Back!!!! Did you miss me? Oh, I really do hope so. (As this is typed to myself and maybe a couple of other people) Where did I go? Why thanks for asking.
I headed up to Raleigh for all of last week to help them out in their office. Apparently they were really backed up with some projects, so a few of us took a little trip. It was nice for me because I got to see some people that I had not worked with for a long time...and some of my old friends too. Had to put in that obligatory appearance at the 'rents' place too. Dad fixed my car some for me, so that called for dinner one night. The rest of the time I ended up hanging with some of the folks from work, although I did get to see a couple of friends from the old days. It was so nice...see people and feel like no time had passed by as you hang out just like old times. Then you start reliving the old days and how much you drank when you were younger and barely even legal for anything. That was the really freaky part. But it was kinda kewl. I miss my friends from there. But I didn't get to see all whom I wanted. Amber was MIA, Joe was busy with work, Todd was sick and Rick I saw briefly for dinner on Sunday after I got up there. Curtis was the only one I really got to spend some time with. That was nice. Oh duh, I said that already. LOL Just blame it on the hair chemicals I have used over the last 12 years.
Did you ever know how hard it was to get off without any materials handy? I had to sit there without dvd, video or magazines and get off in the evenings so I could try to sleep. And then again when I got up, right before my shower. Not that my dvd player was working right. It would play cds with no problem, but the movies wouldn't do any sound. I was so pissed off.
But I do have to say that apparently I still have it. I had to bring some pizza up to one of my co-worker's room, which had to be on another floor. I didn't think about it...I just walked out with just the sleep pants on (and I mean JUST the sleep pants) and passed by a gay couple getting out of the elevator. The funny part is that the inside of the elevator was mirrored, so you can see what the other person's face looks like if they are behind you. There were a few looks from them. And then my friend was a little put out by me just showing up like that. Turned out that the gay couple had gone to the wrong floor too....they did a few more double takes when I walked back the elevator to head back to my room. I felt special. :-)
Okay...and since I needed a few new pics, I decided to take some...whatcha think?
Nothing much...just a tease and my new recycled shirt. :-) You have to look good for work once in while. And the rest of the time, just let it all hang out. LOL
Anyway, I am just finally getting back into my paces here at my office...been a long week and it is almost over already. Yeah!!! Only a few more months before the summer starts, and I really can't wait for it. I am determined to not take off any more days before then...maybe I can get a full week off of work one of these days. Only six more pay periods or so and I will be all set!!!
Anyway, I better finish lunch...I have a meeting today at one that I "must" attend. Talk to you soon!
Oh...and Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!!
