I was just informed that my old boss has been reading my blog.
That ignites 2 feelings in me...
1: Happiness. Yay! One more person who takes the time out of their day to read what I have to say. Love the support.
And 2: Panic. This lady used to be my boss...I'm not nearly as professional in the blogging world as I am in the office world...not to mention, she knows all the guys I've written about on this blog...and was able to decypher all the code names I'd given them.
It's a good thing Lisa is such an awesome person. She's never judged me and was the coolest boss ever. In fact, I miss her. A lot. We all hated seeing her leave when she decided to move back home to Texas, and now the office just isn't quite the same.
Lisa,
I just want to say thank you for everything...especially the follow up here on my blog. I'm glad I made you giggle. :)
Oh, and get your butt back to Utah soon! I miss you and baby Autumn.
Love,
Me*

Good enough for Ben
I've been so busy lately, but meaning to write about Ben.....On the topic of possible hairstyles for himself he text me,
"What do you think about a lightning bolt in it?"
"I think it's crazy."
"Like good crazy huh"
"Um...like crazy. But do what you want. It's better than a cross."
"No, I might get a normal hair cut."
"Seriously? So you're going to lose the mullet?"
"Yea I think so"
"Really? What provoked this streak of normalcy?"
"Day light savings time."
"Haha...you're crazy."
"Possible."
"Probable."
"Debatable."
"I'm all out of 'able' words."
"So does that mean I'm the winner?"
"No. It means you're the wiener."
"LOL that's good enough for me."

Gay Night
To make up for attending a Mormon dance club the night before, Friday night I went out with my gay boys.
After downing a Screwdriver and pretending to hump Jakey at his place, we all walked over to club Sound to get our freak on. I wasn't aware that it was Gay Night until we were inside, but we had a blast. Dirty dancing with a bunch of gay guys is a lot of fun. In fact, I've never danced dirtier in my life. You don't have to worry about looking stupid because they're not attracted to you anyway. Which only becomes a problem when you're attracted to them. Why is it that the cute ones are always gay?
Either way, I had a blast with my Fairy Godmother and definitely made up for the other night.

Mo-mo Dance Club
Sadly, yes I attended the Thursday night events at Studio 600...as hard as it is to believe.My friend Tristan and I have been friends since the 4th grade, so when she asked me to go dancing with her, I couldn't say no.
Sending naughty texts back and forth with Brent was the only thing that kept my sanity intact. Otherwise, there might have been serious side effects.

I'm a horrible friend...
Before I take off for the evening, I'm going to publicly slap myself for being a terrible friend.
It's Sarah's birthday today and even though I've had it on my calendar all year, I completely forgot to tell her Happy Birthday until I read her blog post today...
Sarah, I really do love you...please forgive my bad friend behavior.
Telephone Lines
Talking to people on the phone all day for a living can actually be a lot more fun than it sounds.
I'm not in customer service so if someone's being a real ass, I have the right to return the favor. But the people I talk to are generally pretty pleasant. I get to know people all over the world and it's funny how quickly a relationship can be established over the phone. Especially with someone you've never spoken to before and will probably never speak to again.
I just got off the phone with a very sweet man in Huntington Beach, CA. Even though he's quite a bit farther along the race of life than I am, we had a lot in common. Both love the beautiful mountains but prefer the ocean, neither of us are particularly fond of the cold, and his daughter lives in Sandy. He was a genuinely nice guy and I had him laughing 3 minutes into the conversation. When it came time to say goodbye, I found that I really didn't want to get off the phone. But there were other clients to call, and this post to write, so I told him to have a good evening and drive safe the rest of his way home. In response, he told me to take care, have fun in the snow this winter, and told me that he really enjoyed speaking with me. That I have a great phone voice.
Funny that my old co-workers used to tell me that I'd make a great phone sex operator. Apparently I make a good phone friend too :)

In the Office
I work in a sales office. As I've mentioned before, it's primarily populated by the male species. That being the case, I'm usually volunteered to write on the volume boards. This week, Jeremy's team decided to change their name...
We're not having the greatest week, so at my suggestion, our name has been changed to "The Disney Princesses" until we hit our goal in volume for a week. (This is great incentive because I'm the only girl on the team...none of the guys are too happy with our new name.)
Upon discussing the reason behind the team names, Jeremy said,
"We're gonna pull it out this week!"
I came back with, "Yea, and us Princesses are gonna get it up!"
It's probably very fortunate for me that the H.R. department stays at our Provo office...

Halloween
Last night was probably the worst Halloween I've had to date.
I was in a bad mood all day and I ended up with nothing to do on the eve of my favorite Holiday. My mom tried to make everything special and made a huge dinner complete with Witch's Brew and soup in pumpkins just like she always does. But This Halloween just wasn't the same as last year. Granted, I wasn't puking my guts out from too much alcohol like I was last year, but at least then I had something to do.
I was becoming more depressed by the minute, and all the Trick-or-Treaters were not helping.
I miss the days when nothing really mattered. When all I had to worry about was having a cool costume and trying to get my parents to let me stay up super late even if I had school early in the morning. Running around the neighborhood collecting candy without a care in the world. Now, Halloween seems to have lost it's magic and I hate this sinking feeling of being out of place.
Sometimes growing up really sucks.
