Trying to remain calm...

I lost my phone last night. Quite frankly, I'm going through withdrawls. : |

You Know Life is Good When...

...You love your job. Today's reason? Water fights.

    I have nothing on my mind but an endless list of responsibilites to accomplish as I walk around the corner into a jet stream of cold water to the face. Flipping instantaneously into survival mode, I propel myself to the therapy room to procure my own water bottle as means of retaliation. Patients stare blankly as I, dripping wet, rush to find the one with the longest range. I smile politely and say "I'll be with you in just a moment," then race back to the front. Stopping at the corner to check the reflection in the picture on the wall, I see Dr. Vance's face peeking through the doorway to Dr. Adams' office, weapon at the ready. Understanding what needs to be done, and ignoring the warning yells from the coworkers behind me, I ninja roll the gap to the front of Chris's desk, dodging enemy fire. Just as I suspected, Dr. Vance is paralyzed by laughter at my complete lack of skill, leaving him unguarded! From my newly found perch I take advantage of the moment and fire several well aimed shots to the face. Realizing he's in danger Vance flees for the break room slamming the door behind him. Recalling my extensive military training I place myself as close to the wall as possible, blending in with my surroundings and prepared for any sudden movement. As the door slowly creeps open my bottle, skillfully positioned at eye level, temporarily blinds the assailant, but not enough as he lunges forward with an entire cup of freezing cold water, paralyzing the left side of my body. At this moment I know I have lost the battle. But like Dr. Claw, I will not be defeated!!


Next time Gadget! Next Time!!!

For the First Time Ever...

I was told I have amazing eyebrows. Strange. I've always been a little self-conscious of them actually, but last night at Family Home Evening the girl sitting next to me told me that they were, in fact, amazing. Later, in the car, my roommate told me that she agreed upon their awesomeness. Apparently my hair says "I'm spunky!" and my eyebrows say "And what're you gonna do about it?" I'm not really sure what that means. "I'm spunky and if you tell me different I'll punch you in the face." Who knows. I have good eyebrows.... I like it.

New Addition

I feel like God, in an attempt to get me married, has put an overflow on my maternal hormones. I don't know if those actually exist, but something's definitely flowing. I was getting lonely in my office at work, so I bought a betta fish. It subdued the surge for about a week, then they came back much stronger than before. Mostly when I was at home because the fish lived at work, leaving me nothing to nurture.

My roommates vetoed a dog, I'm allergic to cats, rats also vetoed, and guinea pigs, mice and hamsters all lack intelligence. So I bought a hedgehog. Her name is Joplin, as in Janis. Enjoy!
