A Thousand Hail Marys
It's been 15 days since my last post! So much has happened in the last two weeks but what is really sticking out in my mind is TODAY! Both of the bosses are on vacation!!! Whoohoo! Party time!! They have only been gone two days, but oh how nice it is when they are not there. While the cats are away, us mice get to play!!
We all went for lunch today. Work has been extra busy and while they're gone I do have extra stuff to do as far as dealing with all of their clients, but it's still way better!!
For some reason when I leave the office for lunch, I get giddy. We all joke around and I am lucky that everyone I work with has a sense of humor, but I get ridiculously giddy. I have this theory that I have shared with all of my office friends. Basically, my theory is this... There is not enough oxygen in my office and when I go outside I get this abundance of oxygen and therefore it makes me high.
Today, I was preoccupied with several client calls when we were walking into Chili's to have lunch, everyone was ordering. The menu had so much stuff on it, but nothing was really jumping out at me.
I overheard everyone talking about Fish Tacos while I was on a call. The waitress was coming around to me and I looked over at TJ and asked him what I should get and he was like, "Why don't you get the Fish Tacos?"
So, when she asked me what I wanted, I said, "I'll have the Fish Tacos" She looked at me funny and said, "What?" So, I said it louder, "I'LL HAVE THE FISH TACOS" and she said, "Huh?" So, I said it a little louder, "I'LL HAVE THE FISH TACOS!!" At that time, I noticed everyone around me laughing historically. Then the waitress said, "Ah, we don't have that here." I laughed so hard I couldn't breathe. Not as bad as when they told Eric that the hot sauce was strawberry sauce and he took a big heaping tablespoon of it! It was like seeing a cartoon character breathing FIRE!

LOL! Sounds like a total blast. I like your oxegyn theory because I can apply it to myself too! But it only happens when I go out to lunch with my two girlfriends. We get dirty looks because we are making so much noise laughing.
Glad you said your Hail Mary's now get back out there and say one Apostle's Creed!
Thanks for visiting my blog. I read your comments on my page and a couple of your posts here and I have to say that you are not "one of these people that annoy me." First, you are not (as far as I can tell) writing for publication AND even if you were, it's far better than half the swill that is published.
Just my humble opinion,

PS: As I said in my post, I do not consider blogs (specifically, non-commercial blogs) publishing. I mean, yea, they say "publish comment" and such, but it is still not publishing in the classical sense.

Hey, noticed you found my little writing project. I haven't told anyone about it yet cause it's a new writing style for me, but I figured what the hell :)
I'm confused.
Hey Mike,

Barbara, glad I found it! You should absolutely let everyone know because I think it's great!!!
