random observations
Sep. 14th, 2005 07:32 pmSaw a couple of funny things today:
There was a woman out walking her dog (big foofy golden retriever), and the dog had a stuffed animal in its mouth. Cute! Then, this evening, I see a commercial with a dog carrying around a stuffed animal. My life is like that; I live in the Twilight Zone.
One of the salespeople at work has this creepy doll thingy that she usually has hanging outside her cubicle. Yesterday, I saw one of the artists taking a picture of the doll, which had duct tape over its mouth. Today, the doll was missing and there was a ransom note on the cubicle wall, complete with picture. The art department has some creative ways of blowing off steam!
The big boss and the VP of sales are away at a conference for the rest of the week, so things have calmed down quite a bit. A few days of peace!
While I was toweling off after my shower this morning, I happened to glance into the tub, and there was a big ass spider in there. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! (Vesto, I can feel you shudder!) I mean, it was big, with long legs. Thank goodness I didn't see it until I was already out of the tub. I don't want to think about the alternative. So this evening, I look to see if it's still there. Yup, it is. I gather all my courage, and manage to trap it with a dixie cup and a piece of card stock. I tossed it out the door and ran back in, slamming the door. There was a lot of squealing involved. I'm sure my neighbors think I'm nuts.
Tomorrow evening is our one & only open planning meeting for Pagan Pride Day. We're very laid-back about things this year; farming out the ritual is the best idea anyone ever had. That's always the thing that takes the most planning. It's a huge thing to not have to worry about it.
