Thus concludes the most exhausting work week ever. J-Rock comes back Tuesday, but I'll be in DISNEY WORLD! My favourite place in the whole wide universe!

And not soon enough. Man, today one of the Dippity Do's came over with a new account while I was talking to Yoda. I've been setting up new accounts all week, and working my ass off at it, too. It's all complicated and annoying and only J-Rock and Yoda and I know how to do it. So I've been doing it while J-Rock's on vacation. Anyways, so this Dippity Do comes over and he asks Yoda who to give a new account sheet to. (It's Friday. J-Rock has been gone all week. Catch up.) So Yoda nods at me and says, "You can give it to her." And Dippty-Do looks at me all unbelievingly, and I reach out for it and say, "You can give it to me," and he actually jerks the thing away from my hand.

Excuse me!

Then he finally gives it to me, reluctantly, and starts asking me inane questions ("Will I get a copy of this? When can I get it back?") and finally takes it back to make his own copy. So I go back to work and forget about it for awhile because I am insanely busy. Then I remember, and I ask Yoda if Dippity-Do ever came back, and Yoda says yeah, and he hands me the account sheets.

That Dippity-Do went behind my back and gave it back to Yoda!

I mean, okay, he has no idea who I am--that's fine-- I only know his name because he's the loudest and most obnoxious of the Dippity-Do's. But, come on, what am I, retarded?

Anyway, screw all that, the day after tomorrow, me and my parents and my sister and Tante Joan and Steph (the original) are all going to Disney World for a week!

Remember last time I went and I took all the pictures of every lamp fixture I could find and I was going to make a gallery of the Lamps of Walt Disney World?

Well, a few months ago I kind of accidentally deleted all the pictures. There were like 300 of them. All gone.

But I pick myself up, dust myself off, and start all over again. I'm going to take pictures of every lamp I can find, again. See if I don't! I'll make that gallery yet!

Today was my 9-year Dave-iversary.

I can't believe I've known him 9 years. That's crazy. I've known Dave longer than his wife has.

WEIRD!

I had to go home an hour early tonight because I had a sick headache that made me want to throw up and Tylenol did nothing. It was terrible. We're really, really busy this time of the month and I was going to stay late and help catch up and I had to go home and I just passed out when I got home.

But I felt much better when I woke up, so at least I'll be fresh tomorrow, right?

Yesterday I got a soda for free from the soda machine at work. It's broken and everything in it was warm, but I'd forgotten that. Anyway they gave me two. Maybe as a consolation prize for them being warm.

So I put them both in the fridge, one for yesterday and one for today.

And today it was GONE. Someone STOLE MY SODA!

I really wanted to steal someone else's soda in retaliation, but it's not right. Whoever else had soda in there obviously didn't need mine, so they're not the culprits. It was some soda-less cretin.

Maybe I should put a threatening note on the fridge.

This morning I got some food stuck in my throat in the course of gulping down my breakfast and leaving the house, and so I took a swig of soda to wash it down. Only the food was too stuck, so the soda sprayed out of my nose instead.

Good mornink!

It came off beautifully.

We'd been planning the surprise party for Kirsten for months. We'd thought about making it for the date she leaves, but it's 1) More of a surprise this way and 2) Best to give her those free weekends in July to pack.

And it was my first surprise party planning, and it was really really fun. But I wasn't allowed to talk about it here where someone reads my blog. So we did all the planning and inviting in utmost secrecy. And yesterday finalyl came.

While the others got all the food and drink and music and decorations and people ready in the shmancy community room in my building, Cheryl and I had to keep Kirsten busy for the last few hours in the mall. That was hard, because Kirsten was a whiny brat and didn't understand why we didn't let her eat (even though we ourselves hadn't really eaten all day and were practically fainting from low blood sugar!) Gina did an amazing job with the food and so did TJ, Mrs Apell and Kathy. Erin's decorations were fabulous. All was well. The only real snag was when I accidentally broke Gina's brand-new bottle of raspberry vodka. Which somehow magically reappeared by the time we got to the party...

It was all worth it when we finally walked into the building and veered away from the elevator and into the community room, and flipped on the lights and everyone screamed "surprise" and she was really, truly surprised. And I can tell you that she really, truly loved it, because I can always tell when she's pretending.

Good. Times.
