Ode to Post-It Notes (and other stuff, too)

1.  Good gosh, I love post-it notes.  Like as in love them so much, I think about it daily.  The Assistant has piles and piles of post-it notes on her desk. They're purple and coral and blue and green.  Mine are standard yellow. And so I lust.  We put a purchase order in for me to get some of the pretty, pretty stickies.  I can't just go out and buy them.  You have to remember that I work for The State of Texas.  I expect my post-it notes sometime in early 2011.  I love to slap post-it notes on things and write on them.  Like I'm so busy that if there wasn't a post-it note on it, I totally wouldn't remember what I was supposed to do with it.  Not that I'm busy.  Obviously.  I just like to pretend.

2.  And since I'm not busy and also not allowed to study, I've been reading up on important stuff related to facilities planning on the Internet.  Stuff like which shoes to wear with which outfit.  And I read that after 30, women shouldn't wear shorts.  Ummm...WHAT?  I'm over 30 (it took me a while to realize that).  And I wear shorts.  I would wear them every day if I could.  It's not like I'm wearing cheek chillers or anything.  I wear the knee lengthers.  I'm going to have to say that this is one fashion tip they got wrong.

3.  I believe in buying stuff from kids for school fundraisers.  Because I had to do like 95,231 fundraisers when I was in school and I always hated selling stuff.  I mean, it's not like my dad could take the form to work and have all his work buddies could buy stuff like FFA jerky and oranges (good grief, those oranges were good).  So anyway.  The most recent fundraising effort is from the chubby-cheeked kid of the Vietnamese guy in the office who hates the Obama administration.  I hit the bloody jackpot.  Peppermint bark.  It smells like Christmas.  Now I'm obsessed with making my own because really, how hard can it really be? I'm going to buy some chocolate molds right after work...

4.  At Husband's urging, I brought a can of tuna for the kitties today.  I think he thinks it's hilarious that I'm so in love with these kitties.  I'm in love with all kitties.  Unless they slobber.  My Japanese kitty used to sleep under the covers with me.  And try to lay on my head whenever Husband called on the phone.

5.  Just in case you were wondering, you can open over 75 documents on Excel at the same time.  I'm sure you can do a lot more than that, but I got tired.

6.  I think me and The Project Manager (who always smells sooooooo good...I'm a sucker for good smelling men) will be the only ones left in the office after noon.  I wonder if he'll want to talk about the Navy.  He always wants to talk about the Navy.

7.  I'm really missing the spellcheck on blogger...
