WORK

i wish i had more to say about work- there was so much going on at the last logging job- bizarre habits of coworkers, reality star sightings, uptight beeatch supervisors, like you could feel the grasping climbing tension of hollywood- that this place in comparison is just completely off the radar- or at least where i'm at i can't pick it up as well. which is fine- i like this ignorance as bliss thing i've got going. i will take small risks like asking the coordinator for an "outdate" as in when the coffers will run dry, and i have to start "networking again" or once if we could leave early- but just once. the kitchen is constantly stocked. i make small polite strides at friendship with all the PA's, the office coordinator (who is completely sassy)- i'm still at a complete dead end with the post coordinator and supe. i did make the coordinator laugh when i said, oh you know, if we could know an outdate so i know when to start crying or... and he did a heh- like "heh" i'm subtly amused by your humor, you got me, dammit, i am ashamed to say, heh. but i will give you no more- now go. the story asst is completely off the map now. i think i pissed her off one day, confused by one of her searches, my constant questions which makes anyone with a job or authority quiver, and now we have nothing- but i'm getting to know a couple of the story people- and that's what's important- that and my constant supply of bbq sunflower seeds and chocolate covered almonds.

What about chocolate covered sunflower seeds? Trader Joe's has them, and they are recommended!

Ah, work. Even the most shitty of situations can be smoothed over with a little chocolate. When I was at my last job from hell, I would occasionally purchase one of those giant Trader Joe's blocks of chocolate and keep it in the desk for bad moments, at which point I would hack off a small square with the letter opener. (I mean, who the heck uses a letter opener anyway, really?)

And this should explain why I blog about running so much these days.
