My Co-workers are so Cruel

[paragraphs]

Yes, today is my birthday. 46th to be exact--just call me Ol' Ancient One. I was forced to go to my favorite Mexican restaurant and eat enchiladas and a sopapilla and wear this damn hat. (sigh)

Such abuse I endure at the hands of my fellow employees! And, those people SANG to me! (And all the guys whipped out their camera phones--this is the only picture I will share. Do not ask to see the others. I will refuse.)



And then later, they made me eat cheesecake.

Unreal.

Sigh.

Your life. SO HARD. *g*

HAPPY BIRTHDAY YOU! *smoosh*

[laurelwood.livejournal.com]

Happy birthday! There aren't many who could wear that hat with such authority and panache, but you certainly do!

They made you eat cheesecake? THE HORROR!!! :D

[marciaelena.livejournal.com]

I love the picture! And sounds like you had a great day--what's bad about enchiladas and sopapilla and cheese cake? Even if you had to wear a sombrero. *grin*

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, C!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ♥


Here, proof that even sombreros can be beautiful:

Happy birthday!

It could have been worse. I was in a work party like that where they had mariachis walk around the birthday boy in a circle, singing "Happy Birthday"--with him in the sombrero--then a waiter grabbed his head and forced a shot into him.

I suppose it was a good thing he was a heavy drinker.

Awwwl... *forced* to eat sopapillas and cheesecake! ¡Pobrecita!

Happy Birthday C! :D

Happy birthday - poor you, though, the cheesecake sounds especially evil *g*

Happy birthday, honey. All my best!

[richtyrrell.livejournal.com]

You don't need no stinkin' badges either!

HB, C!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

This is why we have a "No meals within 100 yards of a Mexican Restaurant within Birthday Week" rule. You should implement that for next year.

Happy birthday!!!

It's not so bad I guess--can honestly say 'it beats the alternative' and mean it. A good night's sleep last night and I kicked the weird Ohmygodiam46 blues to the curb. :)

Now, how to make 46 the best year ever...

[paragraphs.livejournal.com]

Grrr. LOL. Woman--what are you DOING these days? WHy are you not around? What is up? Are you still with Rico? What what what what what????

[paragraphs.livejournal.com]

And to you too--busy week around here. LOTSA Geminis on my flist. :)

[paragraphs.livejournal.com]

Tis! TIS ROUGH!!! AHHH!!!!!

Thank you!

[paragraphs.livejournal.com]

LOL yeah--I am a trooper, you know. Also spoiled rotten by my office (N will attest to that. LOL).

They adore me...but at least I did get my mile in last night. I was good. (Am starting at a mile and will work back up to the evil three--)

[paragraphs.livejournal.com]

ahhh that is lovely! You are right! Actually, it was an authentic one--very heavy--and rather pretty. But man it is so HUGE! The guy it belonged to must've been a good sized one--lol.

My scale was kind to me this morning-- :)

[paragraphs.livejournal.com]

Squee! Thank you Cesare!

Um.

I mean thank you Liriaen! :) (lol)

I hear you are gone to Italy again--whoa. And I grin selfishly, knowing you will share your pictures. Yes!

[paragraphs.livejournal.com]

Oh lord--no alcohol fun at our parties. BNSF policy prohibits that sort of fun but boy did I want a margarita! Just one! LOL.

[paragraphs.livejournal.com]

Yup, forced--and I felt rotten for HOURS afterwards because I've been avoiding that sort of thing for quite awhile now. I was reminded why Mexican food is the food of the devil! (lol)

It was so gooooood....

C :)

[paragraphs.livejournal.com]

Thank you, flighty one!

[paragraphs.livejournal.com]

Sniff. You are missed. Sigh...

THANK YOU! :)

It was. Strawberry. Not my mega fav flavor (I like plain, then raspberry) but it was so wicked good. :)

[paragraphs.livejournal.com]

They are headed for Boston now--ahhh we've really agonized on this but now hopefully everything is going to go smoothly. There's lots of reasons to hope the papers will be back before end of June, and that N will have everything mid-July. ie.--the Visa. It is VERY DIFFICULT to get one of those bastards! Unreal!

I have thoughts to email you with--to the weekend, ho! (Not 'ho, just ho ho. LOL)

Can't wait to hear more of your storrrryyyyy....

[paragraphs.livejournal.com]

Snort. Ugh. LOL. It was fun! :)

[paragraphs.livejournal.com]

THANK YOU PIR8!!!!! It was pretty good thanks to all the great emails I got (ooohhh cracked me up really!) and here, and I smile alot just thinking about them all.

[paragraphs.livejournal.com]

Right. Grin. :)

TY, R!

[paragraphs.livejournal.com]

LOL well I had the choice and I was craving enchiladas...which is rare...but I did and so got them. NOT the rice and beans though--I get points for that, right?

[marciaelena.livejournal.com]

My scale was kind to me this morning

So wearing a huge sombrero makes one lose weight? *grin* Or is cheese cake actually dietetic and no one ever told me? LOL, I'm being silly, sorry. That's a good thing, hon--your scale, not my silliness.

[(Anonymous)]

Honey, in any situation where you have a hat stuck on your head while waiters gather round you and clap in rhythm while singing loud enough for the world to stare, you can have all the points you want!

[liriaen.livejournal.com]

Ah, leaving tomorrow at noon. I'm kind eyeing my backpack warily; it looks and feels heavy although there's only a handful of things in there. Crap. It's the books, but I need those for location-hunting.
Oh for sure there'll be pics. :)

[paragraphs.livejournal.com]

You are so awesome. Have a glorious amazing time. Nick and I have decided we wish to go to England next. (Well, after N graduates!). A friend is leaving next week for ten days in London and has promised visual goodies too-- But yes, fortunate you! I hope you enjoy yourself and get away from and can forget about work and flat dramas.

Be careful!

[liriaen.livejournal.com]

Awesome? I believe the proper term is "nerd".
But oh God, I love England. - Ho shit, next week there's a good chance of torrential rain down the Adriatic coast. Which is right where I'll be. Grrrr. Oh well. *packs windbreaker and umbrella*
