things that made me scowl today...

number 1:

i had a dream about stupid boy last night...it's been a while since i've dreamt of him or even thought about him for that matter. we were walking around downtown winnipeg and he was saying that he wanted to be my friend while grabbing my ass and trying to kiss me and stuff. and i freaked out and told him that friends don't generally do that kind of thing.

get out of my dreams asshole! thanks for bringing back all my feelings of confusion. fuck, and i was doing so well too, i could even handle hearing him on the radio again which was a huge step for me....how the hell do you purge someone from your mind? especially someone who does not deserve to be there...

number 2:

i have to go to this clerical PD day on monday and learn about the joys of assertive communication skills and attend a session entitled, brace yourselves...

"The 'Secretary' I want to be" (i seriously kid you not.)

hello? i'm not a secretary! it's bad enough i have to go to this thing and suffer through a whole day (not my usual half day of work) of truly meaningful sessions but today i got an email reminding us that the country club where the PD day is taking place has a 'no denim' dress code! fucking hell, you're renting the goddamn place for a day and we have to follow their dress code? are we in grade 5?....apparently so. so now i get to be bored out of my skull while not wearing my jeans! hmmmm, i wonder if bare midrifs and visible thongs are against the dress code too....


number 3:

i cleaned my desk and discovered a secret compartment where Ritz Bits and dust bunnies have been having a torrid love affair for a very long time....i'm all for the love affair but please, not in my desk...gross.


and one funny thing (thank god):

the crocodile holding the "E" in the "READ" sign above the picture book section fell off the wall today. so it didn't spell "READ" anymore, just "RAD"! i was very tempted to leave "RAD" up there cuz it was pretty funny but the shriner bear holding the "R" started to look really lonely...and hell, these kids probably don't even know what rad means...i'm sure it's passe (where is my damn accent aigu when i need it?).

night all...

I am going to focus on one small usefull thing for you Ago. The accent aigu can be found if you hold down the ALT key and type 130. This is for PCs. It's a bit different on my Mac.

Please do the midriff thong action. That would be a hoot and no one would give a shit if you were wearing denim or not. Down with dress codes I say.

Hve you ever seen the movie "Secretary" with Maggie Gyllenhaal? That's the secretary I want to be. Also, "Reading is Rad" was a popular Australian gimmick for schools a few years back. Aparently their hip-kid slang is lagging a few years behind.

Jen - that is exactly what I was going to say!!!!

Maggie was looking damn fine in that one...

egan, thanks for the tip. i am anti-Mac so it should work. i used to just have my keyboard set as a french keyboard but was too lazy to do that with the new computer.

i'm thinking blue thong and my orange "Alberta All-star" midriff shirt might go well together...

jen and steph, that's the one where she likes to be spanked, right? that is the secretary we all want to be! unfortunately i don't think being bent over a desk will be part of the session...damn!

and i totally should've left the crocodile off the wall...

I will let the anti-Mac remark slide. But let it be known, that's one strike against you. However you have about 17 going for you.

oh right...you're one of those 'graphics people' aren't you? mac lover. i'll forgive you this time but don't let it happen again!

Despite the fact that I'd like to die right now, you make me laugh, Snugglebits! Why did I call you Snugglebits? Beats the hell outta me, but it seems like a cute, unique nickname.

My deepest sympathy for having to endure "The Secretary I Want to Be." Would it be bad form to have a t-shirt made that says, "I'm not a secretary...because I don't want to be"?

*maniacal laughter* @ the dust bunnies and Ritz crumbs having a torrid love affair.

Will you still have my child even if I use a Mac? I am not some graphic artist. Not by a long shot. I do draw a mean walrus though. What's your address and your real name? I think it's time you reveal your true identity. I'm tired of being all sleuthy and shit.

12:35 p.m.  
Blogger Cold Hands said...

sleuthy? poor E!

12:37 p.m.  
Blogger egan said...

I know "sleuthy" isn't a word Steph, but cut me some slack. I am trying to break "Ago" down.

Blogger Cold Hands said...

:) luv ya E

come on ago - give it up:

What's your name?
(What's your name?)
Who's your daddy?
(Who's your daddy? He rich?)
Is he rich like me?

Osbasseau figured it out. Maybe we need to break him down Steph. I guess he figured it out using clues from the blog. Hell, I must not be paying close enough attention.

Blogger Osbasso said...

Ago--I'm a little hurt about the anit-Mac comment. I figured out your name on a Mac. MAC GEEKS ARE PEOPLE TOO!!

Speaking of your name--make everyone else figure it out. Don't back down! As for the clues you mentioned--I was able to go back and make sense of them. My only hint to the masses--how did she come up with her user name???? Oh, and Steph--when I get my birthday boobie pics, I might back down and help you out here! Egan--sorry, bud, there's nothing you could tempt me with.

On Monday, do the blue thong/orange midriff thing (except it reminds me of the Denver Broncos--boo....). Or do the opposite--wear the stockings/garter belt, low cut blouse, high-slit skirt. Check the porno sites for the correct look. THIS could be the secretary you want to be!

oh crap o - you mean you didnt get those?

damn that snail mail.... i hope some pissed off postal worker is ogling them right now.

Ago, it's your job as an educator to teach these kids what rad means. Same with tubular, narly, and since you are Canadian:

Gurp
Nerd-bomber
no guff
and Joey Jeremiah, Esquire

Blogger Narrator said...

Ago, is Ago your name? Or do you stand for the Art Gallery of Ontario? Or are you all about 'a milennia ago' or 'once upon a time, many years ago' or 'ago bafroom now'?

3:56 p.m.  
Blogger ago-go said...

you guys fucking crack me up, i love it!

i have to run (another date, yay!) but i'll be back tonight to reply to each and every one of you.

bisou, bisou.

Blogger Narrator said...

I want a date. I'm such a loser.

G'night, y'all. Gotta crow with the cocks around 5 a.m.

andi --glad that i could make a sick girl feel better and i'm happy to be called snugglebits! and it wasn't even ritz crumbs that i found, it was those little mini ritz crackers, whole ones, that were copulating with the dust!

egan --i figured you were a 'graphics person' because that's who always seems to be proselytizing for the Mac. however, i will still have your baby even if you have an I-lamp or whatever...but i will be raising the kids in the church of the PC.

and i'll bet you draw a pretty hot manatee too!

os --sigh...you boys and your Macs, gawd...i might just have to go with my Bronco colours, the other outfit would require a lot of shopping!

steph --never pictured you for a Zombies fan...a multifaceted girl you are.

non --oh the joey jeremiah and my favourite, dead claude...so many memories. i think i also need to teach the kids "like, totally, gag me with a spoon".

and i like to think i'm more like the American Guild of Organists...

12:59 a.m.  
Blogger Osbasso said...

Very impressed that: 1) Steph quoted the Zombies, and 2) you caught it!!

Doesn't American Guild of Organists sound a little naughty?

1:48 a.m.  
Blogger Cold Hands said...

o- i can make anything sound naughty... i bet ago can too!

Blogger Narrator said...

LOOOOOOOOOOLLL!!! Dead Claude!!!

Ago, I have to ask you: do you remember how hilarious his little Michael Jackson boots looked poking out from that bathroom stall?

Snake walks in, sees a river of blood on the floor and Claude's Peter Pan footwear and says stupidly: "Hey, are you okay?"

Claude says (in my version of the script): "Yeah, man! It's just this damn anal fissure! Doctor says it should heal up with a touch of Vaseline."

5:10 p.m.  
Blogger Narrator said...

I can't stop laughing.

5:10 p.m.  
Blogger ago-go said...

yes yes yes! i remember the pointy-toed shoes and how distraught poor snake was at finding the body!

and remember the events that prompted the suicide? claude and his stupid rose and bad poetry that was not appreciated at the school talent show.
