This is a boredom post

This is my I don't want to be working today face.

There are a grand total of three people in the office today. It's just a little too quiet. I've done some shopping online (two new pairs of jeans and a jacket), twittered, went on facebook, checked my e-mail, checked the blogs I read, did a little bit of work, and now I'm BORED.

Hope you all had a lovely Christmas. I ate too much but it was worth every last tasty bite. I had Thai food from my favorite Thai place, I had food from the Chateau which has the best bread and toasted raviolis, and I had a home cooked dinner of ham, a roast, rolls, potatoes, green bean casserole and corn. This was not all in one day. I'm not that fat.

I should go to the gym today but I shouldn't drive anymore than needed on my spare tire. This is quite the good excuse not to go to the gym.

I just have to say being single around the holidays is no fun. All my friends are spending the weekend with their boyfriends or girlfriends or fiances and I'm just hanging out by myself being bored.

Ok back to "work"

You run a tight ship my friend

I've noticed a lot of my friends have catch phrases. I was thinking about this today because I changed my facebook status to my friends catch phrase to annoy him. Darryl does have the best ones though.

Darryl's catch phrases:

"You run a tight ship my friend."

"This is MY Tavern!"

"You can't make the wine without the grapes."

"Why do you hate me?"

Every time we get in a cab he says to the cab driver "you run a tight ship my friend" and I don't know why but this sends me in to hysterical fits of laughter.

My catch phrase:

"I'm gonna smack the crap out of you!"

Yea, very classy. I had this pointed out to me by a friend. I don't say it viciously and I usually say it in response to Darryl using one of his catch phrases. He'll ask me why I hate him and I tell him I'm gonna smack the crap out of him.

Slow work day = random blogger post

It's a very slow work day and the sky is looking pretty doomsday like. I need to be busy or I get extremely bored. This is why I could not be unemployed or have a job where I sat there and did nothing all day everyday. I do go through really busy spurts where I’m working late and forget to eat until way past lunch but this week is not one of those weeks.

What did people with desk jobs do before the internet? I think this might explain why people use to smoke in offices. I would too if was bored and had no internet plus I would probably want to die an early death hence the smoking. Luckily I live in 2008 and can go on blogs, stupid gossip sites and Wikipedia all day.

I also need to stop checking my e-mail obsessively to see if a certain guy has sent me a message. Self control, I need to have it. I’m waiting not so patiently and it’s driving me insane! If I was busy with work I wouldn’t be thinking about it so much.

In happier news, Melissa has decided to stay in Boston and not move back to Florida. If I could do a flip I totally would. I won’t lie, when she told me she was moving back home to Florida I cried. I cried a lot. She is my best friend and although we’ve only known each other for two years it feels like she’s been around forever and quite frankly I would be very bored and lonely if she left. I have other friends and I would manage but it was sad thinking she wouldn’t be around. Apparently she has decided the same. She called me on the phone last night and told me she would miss Boston, miss her friends here, and got upset thinking about all of us going on with out her. I think the jist of her words were:

“I mean I LOVE you and I LOVE my street and I LOVE this city and I LOVE Jesse and Darryl and I can’t live away from all of you and I don’t want you going to a coat check and then posting on facebook how awesome that coat check was!”

Really, we don’t have that much fun in the coat check line.
