October 10th, 2005is everyone else working today?
Columbus Day. Apparently our company celebrates it by… yes, that’s right… not going to work. Woohoo. 🙂
Is everyone else working? Does anybody have today off?

Monday and Off ?! dear, that’s the best miracle, ever! Gotta be off on wednesday. Hispanic Day they call it here. Some people regret but dammit, it is off after all! 😀

They call it Discover’s Day here in Hawaii. It seems that only the unions, the bankers and the crazed postal employees get the day off.
Us law office types don’t get shit.

If we don’t work today, I’m gonna jump in the pool & relax.

Someone pray that I get fired or that my company celebrates Columbus day.

Me.. it’s nice, huh? 🙂
Wendy.. so sad honey. 🙁 Go get a cup of cocoa and have a good cry. I understand completely.
Grampa: what, you aren’t a crazed postal worker? lol 😛
Augie: Bummer, you have to work? 😛 And do you really want us to pray you get fired? Noooo, didn’t think so.

when you say cocoa do you mean a bottle of rum? because if not i’m going to have to change the english language in my favor again.
Comment by wendykat — October 10, 2005 @ 1:57 pm
Um… lol. I mean doctored cocoa, most definitely. Toss some rum in there, yes, or whiskey. Personally, I think a little Jameson works wonders.
Actually, as I am at home, working on a holiday, I might make myself one of those….

You can’t hide anything from us Islanders.
Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean, doesn’t matter.
We’re watching you.
And salivating.
Comment by Grampa — October 10, 2005 @ 4:59 pm
uhm…why salivating?
no, don’t answer that. either way i think you’d go with that answer is a direction i want to avoid entirely.

Well, after the lobotomy, I’ve kinda lost control over my drooling control.
Comment by Grampa — October 10, 2005 @ 5:13 pm
I also repetitively use words and write sentences that sound stupid.
Comment by Grampa — October 10, 2005 @ 5:15 pm
OK… you two are having fun in here, aren’t you? lol
Salivating and drooling following the lobotomy… um… I’m just going to back away slowly from this conversation…

Be afraid. Be very, very afraid.
Comment by Grampa — October 10, 2005 @ 5:22 pm

I’m sabotaging my job in the hopes of getting fired….seriously I am.
Today I purposely sighed at the boss when he asked, “what happened Friday?”, I said with a fuck-off sigh, “I got sick.”
My boss has zero testicular fortitude to confront me about anything, I have no respect for him.
Oh damn, this was so good, I should’ve blogged it.
Comment by Augustus — October 11, 2005 @ 3:22 am
Augie… why do you want to get fired, lol?
And yes… go blog! An actual blog, not the nonsense you’ve been throwing up there lately. 😛
