I had to stop and laugh at myself the other day at work. I was in the middle of some mindless filing. You know - pretty much just making sure that things were correctly alphabetized (which I actually think it kind of fun). This left my mind to wander wherever it so pleased. A few minutes into my filing, my boss (a very smart lawyer and businessman) walked into the room to make a copy or something, and I was roused from my daydreaming. It was then that I realized that I am pretty glad that the running commentary that goes on in my head isn't broadcast for everyone to hear (at least until I blog about it). Why? Because THIS was what was in my head (thank you youtube). Go about 1:20 into the clip, and you'll hear what was in my head.
It's a fascinating world inside my little brain.
Any input on any off-the-wall musings you've found yourself in while at work? Feel free to leave them in the comment section. Just for fun, you know.
Things I think at work:
ReplyDelete1. I wonder who will post on their blog and entertain me.
2. I wonder if anyone can see my beard.
3. I think I have a lazy eye.
4. I wonder if the cats are outside and I wonder how long I can get away with petting them before someone notices I'm gone.
5. I really like cake.
6. It's happy hour at Sonic from 2-4.
7. I wish I could go to happy hour at Sonic.
8. I'm sorry, are you talking to me?
9. If you are talking to me, could you please talk about something I care about?
10. I wonder how much the blood in my body weighs.
11. I wish I could work outside and be tan. Except I don't want to work outside now because I'd probably get heat stroke.
12. When I get a new car, it's going to have power locks. And power windows. And AC that can combat the Texas heat.
13. I know that everyone else wishes they had a pillow stashed at work like I do.
14. I wish I still worked at the physical therapy office so I could lay on the treatment tables to sleep at lunch instead of having to sleep on the floor.
15. No wonder Taylor Swift didn't win any awards this year. Everyone's tired of her music playing on every station all day long.
16. I should have tried to be Miss America. I have better answers to the interview questions than any of those other ladies.
17. I know it only takes five seconds to get to the bathroom at a dead run, so there should never be a need to vomit in my trash can.
18. Why is American chocolate so gross?
19. If you call me "preggie" one more time, I swear I'm gonna...
20. I wonder if Jenn really wanted to know what I think at work all day long. Probably not. So this list is probably bang out of order. I should delete it. But I'm not going to. I'm going to make her read the entire thing.
Well...though I was not expecting QUITE as lengthy of a response, I did read the entire thing, and I quite enjoyed it! Here's what I think:
ReplyDelete1. I don't check blogs at work all the time, but I LOVE that you update yours regularly.
2. I can not see your beard.
3. I once had an eye doctor tell me that I had a bit of a lazy eye. However, no other doctor has ever told me that, so I'm going to dismiss it.
4. Good luck with the cats. I never think about cats at work. :)
5. I really like cake too! No wonder we're friends. Also, brownies with peanut butter chips mixed in. Or brownies with Andes mints melted on top. Or cake.
6. Thanks for the info. Maybe I'll stop by.
7. Do you want me to pick something up for you?
8. Don't know how to respond to that...
9. Yes.
10. I'm glad I have blood, but I choose not to think about it too often. I wonder if your blood weighs more or less now that you're anemic. Hmm...
11.I know it's vain, but I like being tan too. In fact, I laid out in my back yard a couple of weeks ago. It didn't really help me to get tan. I need a whole summer.
12. Me too. We I have those things now, but my a/c only works when it wants to. I will also get keyless entry.
13. Yep.
14. Wouldn't you have to be in Utah for that?
15. You live in Texas.
16. I would vote for you for Miss America. Have you ever watched "Toddlers and Tiaras? Sick, sick, sick show.
17. I hope that neither of us ever has to vomit in a trash can.
18. They put wax in it. Idiots.
19. I will never call you that Special Erin.
20. Done! And totally fun. Thanks for commenting on my blog. It's fun!
Mostly I think about how much my blood weighs because I read just the other day that when pregnant, your blood volume increases 40-50%. I bet that's like an entire pound I can count on losing as soon as this baby comes out. SCORE.
ReplyDeleteOh, and yeah, happy hour at Sonic - drinks are half price! And on Tuesdays, all burgers are half off. And that's why Sonic gets my business.
Harlow,
ReplyDeleteMy thought for the day at work was... I was in the restroom and all of a sudden thought about how the trash man came and picked up our recycle bin and trash compactor trash but why did he put it in the same truck. Random.... the trash thing happend 2 weeks ago and was just wondering about it today. Than I thought about this post and went and told co-workers that I was going to comment this thought to your blog.
