131. This Story "Warrant"s a Post!

i know. i have A LOT to be posting about. but i've had a lot going on.


so to all who read my blog (you 3 know who you are! :)) i promise to post more wedding/honeymoon related bits soon. hopefully.


in the meantime i'm going to tell you a story that i find to be super funny. perhaps it's one of those 'you had to be there' funnies. all i know is that chris will be pissed i posted it....(not really)...


last night we were just lounging on the bed chatting and petting our cat minerva. chris was in the process of giving her a pretty vigerous head scratching when he started singing 'heaven' by warrant.

i started to laugh and he explained that it was the first thing that came into his head when he looked into minerva's eyes. she looked like she was really enjoying herself i guess. that just made me laugh even harder.

my husband (that is going to take some getting used to) looks into the cats eyes and the first thing that pops into his head is a warrant song. that he sings. how is that not funny?


sorry chris!

78. Funny

ha.


ha. ha.


we experienced a rather large (the largest this winter) snow storm today. in response the head honcho made the announcement that all non-essential employees could go home upon receiving permission from their supervisor.


YAY! (i thought) because....
...definition of my job: least essential employee in entire organization.


(i spent the entire day doing virtual food jigsaw puzzles online)


seriously. i did.


then i get a call from my supervisor informing that my position has now been upgraded to essential.


so. i sat until it was time to go home. what normally takes me 15 minutes took me one hour and forty five minutes tonight. 1 hr 45 min. and those of you know me know that i do not handle traffic. it makes me want to poke out my eyeballs and drive my car into other cars.


i was determined to not get more stressed than i was. i was going to relax. ha. it's like my brain thought about that intention - laughed - and then pushed over the mountain of a freak-out-to-do list and make me panic.


but.


while i did pount and ponder the existence of life and what a joke my "essential" job is i also walked for an hour on the treadmill (that on top of the 40 minutes i did before work this morning). so. while i still kind of want to poke my eyeballs out i feel better. until i see my belly in the mirror. and jiggly arms.


going to go get ready for bed. dream of london. dream of london. dream of...crap...flying...


perhaps a cocktail and then bed. dreamless sleep.
