she said nuts

i went to the lady doctor today and while i was being ushered into the room the nurse looked at my chart and said "ah so you're in for your woman's visit"

i mumbled "yeah"

nurse: yeah i hate these, i tell my husband how much i hate them and he'll never know what us women have to go through during these visits....you know what he told me?....he said "oh yeah...well imagine a lady nurse holding your nuts while telling you to cough"

me: (wait....did she really just say that? this woman is like my mom's age? wow! ) haha

as soon as the freezer is ready to freeze watch out costco!

Shoe Tying 101

who knew there was a right way to tie shoes. i heard the ladies at work talking about this the other day. the lady in the video is Debbie Weitzman, niece of Stuart Weitzman (his line is awesome). Debbie also happens to be really good friends with a lady that i work with and so i kind of met her when she came down for a visit about a month or so ago. she's a typical new yorker, loud and brash but she's pretty entertaining. here she is taking on zappos.

today we got a thank you note from a wedding we went to in april. the note mentioned how they love the pictures of us from the photographer so i had to go look them up. since the pictures are professional i can't save the picture to my computer but here's the link so you can see a wonderful picture.

m&m's make people hate me

i have found out since bringing in the m&m dispenser that people blame me for their lack of self control. they tell me i brought in an evil machine. they yell at me while serving themselves a handful of m&m's. they give me dirty looks while picking out the colors they don't like or while counting them out to make sure they have even quantities.

i like having the dispenser around because people come and visit more often. both of my cubemates have brought in two bags each to replenish the stock. today we replenished with peanut butter m&m's and omg those suckers are good!

i will kill you for chocolate!

On my to-do list while in Vegas was to visit the M&M store to purchase a dispenser. Usually when someone goes on vacation the person tries to bring back souvenirs of sorts. So far the best souvenirs are magnets, pens, and candy. I thought since I work with all woman and 3 guys and we all love chocolate that this would be a good general office gift. So I bought the dispenser and an expensive pound of fun colored m&m's. It was a big hit. I think most of my co-workers stopped by to get a few m&m's.

So now that we have a constant chocolate fix I took a quick break and on my way to the restrooms I saw the President's secretary walk toward the breakroom with a huge cake. I waited for the secretary to leave before swooping in to inspect the cake and to my surprise it was chocolate cake from costco. I came back to my desk with a piece of cake and stuffed it in my mouth while emailing my friends that there was cake in the breakroom and saying out loud how good the cake was with cream cheese filling. Within five minutes everyone in our department knew about the cake and like the vultures we are we probably gobbled that cake up before anybody else had a chance.

The only other souvenirs I bought were for our dogsitter, Shelly. I brought her a simple Vegas magnet and a can opener in the shape of a muscular man wearing a speedo....classy!
