a random rundown…own…own

a random rundown begins in 5…4…3…2…

yesterday i saw a dog lift its leg and deliberately pee directly onto the front bumper of a car. upon telling ryan this he said, “well you know what that means… that car belongs to the dog now.” to which i said, “so, if i want a vehicle, can i just find one and pee on it?” and he replied, “yes.”

speaking of ryan, he talks in his sleep constantly! it’s one of the funniest things ever. i’m told that if someone talks in their sleep, and you talk back to them, they’ll have a conversation with you. i need to try this. also… ryan doesn’t read my blogs (he really doesn’t need to anyway, because he’ll just be reading things i already told him). and because he doesn’t read them i told him i was going to write mean things about him… but i can’t bring myself to do it. so i will say, “babe, if you are reading this right now, tell me the correct answer to this question and win a prize: what is the most recent role i said i wanted to play on broadway? i’ll give you a hint: i made you watch a youtube video of it. good luck.”

at work they decided to do a bit of rearranging. so what once was a conference room, across from my office, is now where the IT team is located. it’s three guys. thai guys. (they are the ones i get to kill the bugs i find in my bathroom). and at lunch, i found out that they now refer to me as “the girl next door” since we’ve become office neighbors. how cute is that?

speaking of my thai guys, one thing that sets them apart from most western men, is they are quite conservative and chivalrous. and along those same lines, extremely respectful. one time Wit was in my office trying to fix something on my computer, and he was standing while working on it. so i said, “here, you can have my chair.” to which Wit replied, “no. i could never have a woman offer me a chair.” whoa nelly.

i recently corresponded with someone i lost touch with during the past year and a half – and i must say, i couldn’t have been happier to hear from her. i have missed her friendship dearly…

i have been eating a lot of kit-kat bars lately. they taste different here; the chocolate is creamier and ohhh soo delightful.

oh!! i have become addicted to watching old game shows on youtube! more specifically, one called “What’s My Line.” i think i’ve watched every episode available on youtube… if you’ve not heard of it, check it out stat! it’s from the 50’s/60’s – there is a panel of four people, and during one segment they are blindfolded and a mystery guest comes out. it is usually someone famous; hence their blindfolds, and they each take turns asking questions to figure out who the guest is. well one person on the panel is Ms. Arlene Francis and she is hilarious and endearing… and i want to be her. all that goes to say, i definitely recommend you look it up sometime.

…i think i was born in the wrong decade. have i mentioned this before?

have a good hump day! and if you are one of those returning to class today… i wish you well.
