24 PACK OF SHARPIES. IN DIFFERENT COLORS. *drools*

Somebody tell me why I get excited over any new thing that I get? lol. I don't care if it's a new eraser I'm like yes! Hey, I appreciate even the little things in life ok? Don't judge me!

Every month we order office supplies from Staples & when they come in all of us are excited cuz we get new pens & Post-Its. haha. We all hover in the supply room & rummage through the new boxes to see what we can stash in our cubes. Oh the fun times.

My coworker, I'll call him "Christmas" cuz that's his favorite holiday, is in charge of ordering the supplies & he always has everything that I didn't even know that I wanted. Like today I asked him to order different color Sharpies & he brought me some like 2 minutes later. haha. I'm like how do you just have that randomly lying around? A 24 pack at that.

And tell me why my excited butt took a piece of printer paper & wrote an H in every single color to test it out? haha. AND not to mention the fact that my OCD butt arranged the Hs in "same color" families on the paper. I swear I have way too much time on my hands. Not really but somehow I find time...

And I love my other coworker too. I'll call her "Work Guru" cuz she knows just about everything. Anytime I don't know something about work, life, legal procedures, or how to take care of my dog she's the one. I swear she knows EVERYTHING about EVERYTHING. If she doesn't then she can find out.

They make my day go by quicker cuz we have so much fun at work. I hope everyone can have or get to the point where they can enjoy their coworkers as much as I do :-)

Happy Hump Day!

WHEN THINGS BREAK

Man it's been a messed up week! My camera (which I've only had since Christmas) broke. I turned it on & the screen was completely white. Like, I can still see the images on the screen but it was covered by a white coat. I tried troubleshooting everything to no avail :-(

Then my freaking "check engine" light came on in my car. Actor checked under the hood & turns out the motor mount (which I just got replaced in August) was defective, rotten, fell apart & pieces got stuck at the bottom of the engine. He had to get a hanger to pry it up.

Now if you know me I hate when things break, especially if I didn't even cause it. But, being the problem solver that I am put a resolution into action instead of complaining & being sorry about it. Well, I did complain a little, but that's besides the point. haha.

So I found my receipts (I keep all of my documents & even copies) for the camera & service & turns out I still had warranty on both things. Whoo hoo! Sent the camera back Monday & they're done fixing it & are shipping it back to me as we speak. Kodak has the best customer service & turnaround time. Props to them!

The "check engine" light went off so we think it was just a slight momentarily malfunction. Cuz the motor mount has nothing to do with the emissions system, which is usually what is wrong when your check engine light comes on. Like your catalytic converter or thermostat or something. Hey, don't look at me like I'm crazy. I know way more about cars than you think. hehe. I used to stand in the shop with my dad & watched as the mechanics fixed our cars. I like to know how to do things.

Actor & I took the car to the shop yesterday & they bought the part & replaced it within an hour of me getting there. Love them too. They be hooking me up! They're my dad's mechanics. My dad got connections man. We're always joking about how we think he's in the mafia cuz anytime he needs anything done he gets it. Like, with a snap. When their house got broken into the lowlives kicked the door out of the frame & completely destroyed it. My dad got home, looked at it, made a phone call & a friend of a friend came straight from work to fix the door. Within like an hour. Put it all back together free of charge. Just like that. AND he went & bought a replacement door & put that on for him a few days later too.

We were telling Q about the service last night & I was like "Man I wish I had my dad's connections. That thing is great!" Actor said "You do! Through him. Man, you're like the Mafia boss' daughter & I'm the guy from the streets that they took in as family or something." I said "Nah, I'm the boss' daughter & you're the hot gardener that's banging my mom." haha. "Eww, gross. Why can't I be a simple regular civilian that's involved with the boss' daughter." "Cuz... you're supposed to be the hot plumber or milk man man."

I dunno. We're slow. Don't judge us. haha

SOME PEOPLE...

FORT PIERCE, Fla. – What would you do for a Klondike bar? Authorities said a man shoved an ice cream bar down his pants and then offered a Texaco station store owner $69 not to turn him in for shoplifting. The owner told police that a 65-year-old man tried to sneak the Klondike bar, along with packages of Ramen noodles and Famous Amos cookies, out of the store without paying Tuesday night.

When the store owner confronted the man as he tried the leave the store, the owner reported that the man pulled the flattened ice cream snack out of his back pocket and offered the owner $69 for it.

The owner called police, and the man was charged with retail theft and violation of probation charges. He was being held on $500 bail.

Hanh: *shakes my head* ....... So why didn't you just pay for it in the 1st place? I swear ppl are stupid! What would you rather pay? $10 or $500 plus have to go to court? *sighs*

GRADUATION & EARLY BEDTIME

So guess what time I went to bed last night? 9:30pm...

I don't think I've ever done that in.... decades? lol. But for the exceptions of sick days & whathave you. But, you know what I mean.

And guess what else? I completely skipped dinner! We came home from Borders & I was gonna cook dinner but then I made the mistake of laying down in my bed. haha. Next thing I know I wake up & it's 5 in the morning & I'm freaking dying of thirst. Went back to bed & didn't get up till 9am for work.

I must admit I do feel refresh & not sleepy at all today. Gonna make some more card samples so I can get my website going soon.

I read the status of my high school friends on Facebook today: "Getting my cap & gown for graduation." I'm so happy for them. Yay!!!!!! So glad they stuck with it & didn't drop out like I did. Hanh <--- Moped. lol. If I would've stuck it out I'd be graduating too. But guess life has different paths planned for different ppl. I might go back eventually but I have other endeavors that I wanna pursue right now. To each his own.

Oh yea, this is a college degree by the way. I did finish high school. Just wanted to clear that up. lol!

Love you guys,
Hanh
