six sucky things about yesterday
yesterday was pretty sucky, but not for reasons one might think.
first sucky thing: i had to work. well, at least i thought i had to work. there was a huge miscommunication when asking for the day off where i thought i had to come in and my supervisor thought i wasnt going to come in.
second sucky thing: B needed new carhearts, and one of the two workwear stores in town was having a huge sale on carhearts from 6-10pm last night. so i spent over an hour telling B that yes, he has to try it on, and threatening to jiggle his inseam (gold star to whoever gets that reference).
third sucky thing: the homeless man who made a huge scene at subway while we were trying to get some food. plus, he smelled. and then the cops didnt show up until we were pulling out of the parking lot and we missed the action. so that should count for two sucky things.
fifth sucky thing: by the time we got out to Chena Lakes, it was too dark to take any pictures, and just dark enough to lose my equilibrium while standing on the floating docks throwing stolen traffic cones.
sixth sucky thing: the car started smelling funny and B used a lot of curse words like 'transmission' and 'so far from town.' then we discovered it was his jacket that smelled like antifreeze, not the cars interior.

6 Love Notes
My sucky day tops your sucky day:
Yesterday at work we had a team meeting, and with much fanfare the "Employee Rewards Program" was announced. After several minutes of blather about how the company wants to show its appreciation for the worker bees, we got to the particulars.
When a customer writes a letter of appreciation for an employee, that employee gets his/her choice of a button or a magnet as a reward.
That is the Employee Rewards Program.
A button or a magnet.
My supervisor mentioned (with a hint of embarrassment) that they tried to do t-shirts, but upper management said it would be too expensive.
What a huge suckfest (and not in the good sense). Even though the fates were conspiring against you, I'm glad you made it to Chena Lakes and did what needed to be done (cause road cones belong in the lake, don't ya know).
So, basically, the last one was just general suckiness because your hubby stinks?
you're just turning into a little hooligan. blocking off roads, stealing construction cones, making bon fires... wild, crazy woman...
don't know about the reference, but when i googled "jiggle inseam" i was somewhat surprised to see what bubbled up to the top... http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&q=jiggle+inseam
yay!
