2:18

It’s 2:18

Will this day ever end?

I’m here

At my desk

And I am so bored I could die

OOH !

Phone !

O.k.

That was dumb

Dumb salesman

WE DON’T WANT ANY ! ! ! !

GO.A.WAY.

So.

Though it’s technically Tuesday, it’s really more like Thursday because of the short week….

And tomorrow’s like Friday…..but Friday with BREAKFAST !

Not that breakfast is such a big deal

It’s Dunkin Donuts and bagels

Whoo hoo

But I guess that’s better than nothing, right?

The only perk of this company – Breakfast Wednesdays…..pathetic

My two little friends here at work have already left for the day

One to go see a doctor, the other to go move the rest of her belongings into her new home

So that means there’s not even anyone for me to go visit

How to amuse myself

Hmmm…

How

How

How

I think if I “recheck” that blinkin’ Christmas cookie list one more time I’ll scream

It’s all planned – I have my list of names and list of cookies

What I need to do is test the new recipes and get to baking the cookies I already know I’ll be doing

THAT’S what I’d like to be doing right now

BAKING and playing with the kitties

But no

I’m here.

Perhaps I’ll work on those blinkin’ expense reports for the Duckman

I procrastinate because the only thing more boring than sitting here trying to look busy is doing his expense reports

The man just hands me receipts with no information - - - like I’m supposed to KNOW what they’re for !

So begins the game of 20 questions

AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

OOH !

Timekiller !
I’ll go make some tea and restock the coffee supply !

O.k.

That took a hot minute.

BLAH

Chunk just came back from her 45 minute break

Must be nice

Wish I could take 45 minute breaks 3 times a day

OOH !

Just got back the memo we’ve been laboring over most of the day

He gives me his chicken scratch

I type it

He edits it and adds more chicken scratch

I fix it

Rinse and repeat

Many times over

This is like the 6th or 7th draft of this thing today

Luckily I’m a fairly quick typist

There’s the phone again….

SON OF A B!TCH ! ! ! !

O.k.

I know I don’t have much to do but COME ON

For the past 2 days I’ve been the only one answering the phones around here though there’s ANOTHER PERSON here who can do it too ! ! ! ! !
There’s a reason she got robbed on vacation !

Because BAD THINGS happen to BAD PEOPLE

Now if only she’d go away !
She’ll never leave here, though….not without being forced….she’s got it too good and she knows she’ll never be able to get away with shopping trips in the middle of the day and playing solitaire all day somewhere else

Alright

I’ve killed about 1 hour between typing this, answering the f-ing phones and re-working this memo for the zillionth time….

Time to go and figure out how to kill the next 1 ¾ hours….
