what happened to all the small talk?



So I went. It was packed! And it wasn''t even an OPEN HOUSE, you know, where there are stations and you can talk to different people and ask about different programs. It was a lecture style thing. Turns out one of the girls from my department was a part of the panel so she and I spent the majority of the time talking to one another about the woes of working for our BIG, BIG boss (my BIG boss - you know the one

- but her immediate boss). All I can say is thank God I work in my little office with my little group.



So I heard practically nothing. That''s okay. I know what I have to do. Now I just have to decide if it''s something I really SHOULD do.

Oh dear. That does not sound like fun. Sorry you dragged your sick booty out there. But I hope you''re feeling better!

I''m sort of sorry I did. I also ran into my big boss and she had a stank face when I told her I was inquiring about a program. She gave me a look like, ''ANOTHER program?!'' Whatever lady!

I''m so glad I rarely see her because I''m safely tucked away in the Bronx (hehe...get it? safe in the bronx! ha!).

Hahahah. Nerd!

hehe...I knew you''d get my humor! I blame it on my feverish state.

In agreement with elle.

So, I tried to post this earlier, but IE6 ate it:

I''m sure you all remember "Inappropriate Gym Attire Chick" from a few weeks ago??? Well, she''s returned from the holiday with avengence, trading in her calf-length yoga capris for SHORT SHORTS!

I really wanna go up to her the next time she''s on the treadmill and just let her know that her choice of attire is really inappropriate for an office gym.

lol! my nerdiness is why you <3 me!

Call her out, VC. No one cares about her stupid booty.

I just mentioned it waaaayyyy back in ST somewhere...

Basically, my gym is IN my office. No one can go to this gym unless they are USPTO employees. And there is this chick, who obviously then works at the PTO, aka is an employee of the US Government, that insists on working out in a sports bra. She use to wear yoga pants with it. Now she''s moved to short shorts. And it''s one of those flimsy little cami-strap ones. And she runs in it. It''s just...SO INAPPROPRIATE.

I see. So she''s giving everyone an eyeful? Is your office a gym office or does the gym just happen to be in your section?

I just came home. No point in going back to work. I''m staring at my tree and am sad that I have to take it down soon.

My boss is so cool (immediate boss). She gave me a black cashmere hoodie for Christmas. It's sooooo comfy! I love it

Do you like coconut? I have chocolate and coconut cookies. Soo good. I''d eat one right now if I could taste. Why pack on the pounds if I can''t enjoy, you know?

Butt sniffle free!

And starved! Everything I''d eaten recently came barreling out!

I wish you people lived nearby. I''d dump all my recently baked things on your doorsteps and run away.

(and those rolls you baked the other day --yeah, the earlobe ones-- looked delicious!)

 

[Lauren8211]

I am drinking my Special K protein water.

Curbs hunger!

 

[vc10um]

Bia...I just go to the gym...and she''s inevitably there every time I am. We have 5 office buildings on our campus and the gym is half of the bottom floor of one of them.

T...I''ll send you my addy! I can fit baked goods into my calorie count!

elle...glad your butt sniffles are gone!!!

Now I''m off to the gym. If sports bra girl is there someone is seriously going to have to hold me back...ESPECIALLY if she''s in short shorts again.

I work sort of nearby. Just a hop, skip, jump, #2 train to the city and #6 to the boogie down. You might even be able to take 2 to the bx! or take metro north straight to westchester. I always welcome baked goods.
