“What the F*ck?” Wednesday

I am walking into the building from lunch today, and as I scan my badge to open the security gate, the very large man coming in the gate next to me looks over and says, “You look like candy.”

Me: (confused face, followed fairly quickly by dirty look)

VLM: I mean you look like one of those candies. The peanut butter ones.

Me: (F-U look) Oh, okay. haha

Me in my mind: What the f*ck, VLM? Why would you say that to me? Don’t you know I can never wear this jacket again without thinking I look like a peanut butter bar? Do you realize I JUST bought this jacket and it wasn’t cheap? WTF is WRONG with you men?!

Me:

Peanut Butter Bars:

I really don’t see a resemblance.

Hurricane Tuesday

So here I am on the 35th floor of my office building waiting for a tropical storm. I stopped on the way in and got the biggest mocha frap available (with no guilt over the calories or the $5.00) and our EVP sprung for pizza for all of us knuckleheads who showed up today.

So far, this is the best day I’ve had in a week. (wood knocking goes here)

WTF Weekend

I have just come off the weekend from hell. Ever been through a series of events that just made you sit back and say “WTF is going on around here?”

Thursday: Went to meet friends for a glass of wine after work. Within five minutes of sitting down, manager comes over to tell me that my car was involved in an accident. The valet moved my car, left the engine running, and forgot to put the car in park. So, it rolled out in to traffic and t-boned a car driven by a woman who is 9-months pregnant. She left the scene in an ambulance.

Friday: Put down Ms. Chatelaine, a kitty I’ve had for 15 years. My husband and I agreed it was the right thing to do, but I kept thinking he would get too busy to take care of it. I was wrong.

Saturday: Get an early morning call from good friend. Her boyfriend was killed in a motorcycle accident late Friday night. Spent several hours getting a grasp on that information, then spent several hours at her house, trying to be supportive.

Sunday: Attend a Wiggles concert. No alcohol served.

So, I’m in a bit of a trance today. I want to cry…and I can’t get “Big Red Car” out of my head. Will the torture ever end?!

Don’t eat the Beaver Balls



This will be hard to believe, but it tastes worse than it looks.

My coworker was all like “it’s so yummy…it’s like a donut hole but filled with chocolate.” I took one bite and have been sick to my stomach ever since.

Beaver Balls = Not good.

EXHIBIT A

I found this in my husband’s carry-on bag today.

But Rhonda, you are thinking, we already knew your husband was a wino. Yes, this is true, and I am right there with him, but if you look closely, I said I found it in his CARRY-ON BAG. Meaning, he carried it on a PLANE with him.

WTF, TSA? Not only is this very scary, but it makes my 8-ounce bottle of formula (which you confiscated) look pretty non-threatening comparatively, don’t cha think?

Things That Are Cool About Going Back To Work Week – Conclusion

The best thing, so far, about going back to work…the mental challenge? No. Meeting new people? Nah.

It’s having my husband tell me how good I look every morning when I leave. My favorite comment was “Everyone is going to want to DO you!”

Slightly crass, but 1.) I don’t mind crass, and 2.) it makes me feel like I might be on my way to MILF status.

Healthy Snacks…

Unlimited, yummy crunchy ice…

And not only does someone else make my lunch every day, but there has been no mac & cheese or Chick-fil-a on the menu this week.


And finally, I’ve lost 3 pounds this week…without dieting. WOOHOO!

2. Getting a Crackberry! And because IT is slightly inefficient, I haven’t had a computer the last two days, which means plenty of time to PLAY with my new Blackberry.

I took this photo with my iPhone. Who is too cool for school with all her rockin‘ technology?!
