Man, I feel like I’m living parts of the movie Office Space right now, especially the ‘spacing out at my desk’ part. I’ve been at work for just about an hour and haven’t done much of anything yet. Well, anything work-related. I actually don’t have anything to do, so that’s okay. There’s busywork that I could do, but I’d rather space out, talk on the phone, whisper about the anomaly of having a cute boy in the atrium and wonder what he’s doing there, e-mail friends, and write a pointless and rambling diary entry. Speaking of which – shall we?
Ah, so I should probably address the rest of my weekend after my last entry. It calmed down after most of that stuff. I forgot to mention that I watched Billy the Kid vs. Dracula one night. I was surprised to find that in the Old West, vampires could walk around in broad daylight. Who knew? With that being said, here’s some of what I did the rest of the weekend:
- Played mini-golf (‘putt-putt’ to you folks out west) and ended up with a small sunburn. It wasn’t even that hot or sunny, but I felt it when I jumped in the tub last night and shouted out, “EEEEIIIIIIAAAAHHHH!” The worst part about the burn is that it has now ruined my whole summertime tan pattern. I was wearing Capri pants, so I now have a slight sunburn on my legs from my ankles to where the pants hit me mid-calf. This is not good. I fear that now, for the rest of the summer, that part of my leg will be darker than the rest and I’ll look like I’m wearing permanent skin-socks all season. The pattern, it is ruined! Ruined, I tell you!!! (I may be overreacting a little, but it’s only because one year I made the mistake of getting a burn while wearing shorts and those tan lines never faded all summer, so when I wore a bathing suit I looked like an idiot. God, I hope I don’t end up with skin socks.)
- Relaxed in a Jacuzzi tub while drinking fresh Coca-Cola out of a wax/paper Dixie cup. For me, there’s not much better than Coke in one of those cups. It’s all about the container, baby. (Much like tea in a Dunkin’ Donuts paper cup. Sublime.) Wax cup Coke AND a Jacuzzi? Pure bliss.
- Went to see Raising Helen and was angry about having to sit through that attached Disney cartoon. Why would they attach a cartoon to that movie?? Spent the ride home listening to my brother repeatedly questioning how Chris Robinson landed Kate Hudson.
- Bought my tickets for Harry Potter! I’ve got Friday off so we can go to the matinee before the kiddies get out of school. There shall be no noise and numerous bathroom treks during my Potter experience. I might miss a good Malfoy sneer, and then I’d be REALLY upset.
- Made a JournalCon buddy! Word to Shmuel. He rocks. I also feel better now knowing that I’ll at least kinda know someone there. I’m hoping to know even more people before the trip.
- Played one of the greatest games ever: Flashback – The Movie Edition. It’s even better than the first edition, the Sitcom Edition. Just try to stump me on a Forrest Gump, Coming To America or Sixteen Candles question. It can’t be done.
Well, the cute boy has left the atrium, so I suppose I should start doing some actual work for a little while. It’s only 52 minutes until my next ‘Spacing Out’ appointment time. I think I can handle that. While I’m working, space out for me. Thanks.
