It's certainly a good thing I didn't have any major goofing off scheduled for today. Or even this week. This place has been buzzing for the last four or five work-days. It's also lucky that I rediscovered my work ethic earlier this fall.
At the moment, though, I'm feeling slightly embittered. It's 1:00 and I'd like to go to lunch. And I would, but Bernie, the Tweenybopper, and DiamondGirl all left for lunch an hour ago and they aren't back yet.
Not that I have to wait for them; they're a different company, after all.
The problem is that I have no idea if any of them took their office keys or not and since I happen to be the only body in the suite at the moment (Buehler dashed off a few minutes ago - I have no idea where he was going) and I don't want to leave without locking the door, but I'm afraid I'll lock everyone out.
I wouldn't want to lock Buehler out. I'm in charity with him this week...ever since Tuesday afternoon when we both knocked off working at 3:00 and shopped on-line for two hours.
To tide myself over, I'm drinking a Mixed-Berry, Non-Fat Yogurt-Thing.
It's no substitute for a taco. (I was going to have Mexican yesterday, but I wound up having Japanese, so I'm having it today, instead. Assuming I'm able to get out of here at any point.)
The M-B-N-F-Y-T has 80 calories but essentially no food value whatsoever except for 13 grams of sugars. I'm going to have to switch to the unflavored yogurt...I don't seem to be able to buy another kind that isn't mostly sugar.
....sound of phone ringing...
Okay, now I had lunch and answered the phone a couple more times and stuff.
I also, because I'm weird that way, just opened up my Outlook calendar, clicked on April 1, 2005, and wrote myself a little hello, there note.
I thought it might be interesting to me to know in April what I was thinking about in December. (It's tricky, of course. Can't say anything too specific about fandom, which rules out the SEN and LESS.)
I'm hoping it will amuse me when I read it, which is why I chose April 1.
(You're getting a bonus entry today because Beuhler is back and on a conference call and I can't make any calls myself.)
