Bundled up and practically running through the chilled air, I started my day slightly freezing and a little on the sleepy side. Once I got to work and the caffeine kicked in, the day began to be very productive.
One of my girl friends had mentioned to me that a guy she knew just started yesterday in our office. I had met him once before and, according to my friend, he had thought I was a cutie. So I emailed him, like an friendly person would, and naturally he responded back. Through a string of email chats, it become apparent that he also had a deep seeded love for my favorite band, Incubus. As a typical boy would do, he decided to challenge my knowledge on the band. And let the games begin! I, like any slightly competitive person, took this attack of my knowledge as a direct invitation to not only assert my intellect, musical knowledge, and of course, show him who's boss. :) This banter back and forth kept me entertained for most of the day and put me in a rather good mood. But that was not all that happened...
I got a stapler today!!! Let my esplain :) In my office, there are two secretaries that sit behind me. One is a quite nice woman that keeps to herself and is always friendly. The other is a loud mouth, smoking, quintessential Baltimore resident. With her rough voice and attitude, she some how became the guardian of the office supplies. I call her my little troll because she acts and slightly looks like one. Well typically, she gives everyone and their brother a hard time when ever they ask for the smallest of office supplies. But today, I managed to get a stapler of my very own without attitude or the evil troll eye... I feel empowered now with my stapler! This was indeed a good day!
