Offer Letter.

I was officially offered a full time position at the job I have been temping at for the past few months.
I am very, very excited about it.

Not only do I like the people here, but they also let me joke around with them.
It's a big change from the cranky stock brokers at my last company.

A job where someone can ask me to correct something because they made a spelling error and I can reply "way to spell, no-spell" is pretty much the dream. Or at least, it's my dream.

I often swing by the CVS that shares my work building for food or candy, and I find this box catching my eye all the time.

I understand that this brand means to say "oh, I feel like myself again".

But I always read it as "Me, Again".

WAS Meeting

WAS will be performing a new version of the show at the Annoyance in March, as part of the Triple Feature series.

I am excited to get to work with these girls again, they are tons of fun.

And I'm also excited to get to play Titanic again. Kohl's is having a sale on Avril Lavigne's line and I'm pretty sure Titanic would be all over that.

Mary Louise Parker

At Skate rehearsal last night I was once again compared to Mary Louise Parker.
I've been getting this more and more since Weeds started airing, and I have to say - I do see it.

Last night however, was the first time I've been told we also make the same facial expressions.
Weird.
Maybe she's...future me.

Baby doll.

Norm and I have started texting each other pictures of horrifying dolls.
He sent the one above.
So I sent this one:

Then he sent this one:

On and on that way.

I have learned that most people find these more disturbing than amusing.
But I really like them, they tickle me in a delightful way.
I think would like to start collecting them. I already have 2 sort of creepy dolls. But they aren't really comparable to these.

So if you see one...I want it.

Cubicle Decorations.

I have a meeting on Friday to discuss making this a permanent job.
This is great, for a lot of obvious reasons. But it also means I am more comfortable decorating my cubicle.

Down at the far end is the flyer for CHOKE ON IT, which a co-worker commented on in a sly way.
Obviously there's some innuendo there but I was surprised that it's the poster they chose to comment on. After all, the HouseCo slogan is "Come Inside".

Gchat

When I first switched over to gmail, I didn't realize that you can choose how peoples names appear in your chat window. Matty pointed it out, saying he had changed Dan's name to "Fag Monster Dan".

Which, when you're talking to him, just appears as "Fag".

Today I realized that you can also change someone's picture. So I took the picture Dan already had and altered it. Gmail was also kind enough to offer to email Dan a link of the picture and suggest he change his profile picture to what I have.

Dan, via gchat (Warning, strong language. Put your toddlers away.):

Fag: oh fuck you

me: excuse me kind sir?
Fag: that fucking picture
no, im not updating my picture
me: oh, well when I look at MY gchat picture of yours, it looks as though you have.
Fag: CHANGE IT
 
Despite the swearing, I'm not changing it.
And if anyone would like a copy of the picture for their own gchat, just ask.
